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.

I'm now using compass textures derived from the wonderful ones created by tacotexmex for ccompass. I changed the colors and crafting recipe so that it can hopefully be used in parallel with ccompass, since they both provide different features.

I have also gone back to using the original 12 pointing directions to make the animations look cleaner.

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.
