Real Compass

compass (n) A mechanical or electronic instrument used for navigation or orienteering, which points to the physical or magnetic north pole.

This is a fork of compassgps (and compass), with 90% of the code removed.

Features

This mod tries to address what the "real" essence of being a compass is all about.

No options, no gui's, just an animated needle that points toward the north.

The only other change that I made was, that since compasses are typically divided up in 1/4th, 1/8th, and 1/16th divisions, I updated it to point in 16 directions rather than the original 12.

Crafting guide

Same crafting recipe as the other compass versions, so it's probably not compatible with them.

Thanks

This mod is basically compassgps with 90% of its code ripped out, so I can't take much credit. That belongs to Echo, PilzAdams, TeTpaAka, and Kilarin. I was just standing on their shoulders.
