@latent badge The mod has not been updated in almost 2 years so I don't think its gonna be on 1.19.2 anytime soon. Theres another Mod similar to it here

but its too OP so it wont be added to the pack, but you can add it to your own playthrough if you want

how is it too OP? I stated in my original post how a mod like CraftTweaker would need to be used to make the compass a late game, hard to get item. Something to work towards, a goal.

It does not matter what the recipe for it is, being able to locate any Structure you want instantly is unbalanced. A lot of structures can be located in-game through Maps and other items already fyi

Mods like Crafttweaker or Kubejs would never be added either due to performance issues. A simple Datapack would work but my point stands

If you want help with troubleshooting lag you can ask in #steampunk. I host a Public SteamPunk server and there isnt much worldgen lag in the Modpack even with no pregen.

While I am aware that this modpack doesn't incorporate any 'creative' items, it's not uncommon for modpacks to introduce endgame quest rewards such as infinite power sources, like a creative blaze cake. This could be a similar situation; for instance, if someone aimed to utilize the power of spirit to encapsulate a specific mod, it would be impractical for them to locate 16 identical structures just to accomplish that.

I've asked questions in #steampunk before and they were completely ignored leaving me in the same position I was before.

What mob are you talking about exactly?

[fallow basin]

yeah that channel is flooded with discussion recently, you can open an issue on Github

I dont think "rare" Mobs should be made easier to find just because someone wants to max out their Spirit spawner tbh

If a mob is rare, then most of the time there is a good reason for that

If someone wants it that badly then just gotta grind

I've been trying to get a soul crystal with an Archilliger trapped in it so I can level up my spells. Though i agree they're rare for a reason but when you take into consideration I've had 4 people searching for over 60 hours and we've found 3 of the structures it spawns in, that seems slightly unreasonable

even ignoring gameplay balance issues for the pack isn’t this entirely obsolete since Explorer’s Compass by the same creator as Nature’s Compass exists and serves the exact same functionality as this mod

[fallow basin]

one locates Structures, another located Biomes

it is not the same
