Latest release (for Vintage Story 1.22.1, potentially outdated):

Select a waypoint on your map and the description box will appear

Add detailed notes and descriptions to the waypoint

From the gui you can select any of your waypoints and the map will auto center on it

You can now transcribe your waypoints, it will create a scroll that you can trade and other players can use it to add that waypoint to their map. (must be installed on server)

Changed so notes auto opens when editing waypoint.  Current version closes waypoint editor when you begin making a note so make those changes before typing a note, this is to prevent focus loss that I'm fighting with at the moment.

Version 1, still a couple of bugs, but I need people to try it out and let me know if anything goes wrong.  Should be compatible with everything I think.

Hiya folks, just a quick update and let you know if you use this on your server you can now transcribe your waypoints to a physical scroll and give it to another player who can add it their own map, all your notes will be included.
As always please let me know if there are any issues :)

DecibelDan890 The old version still works for 1.21 but from now on all new features I make will only be for 1.22 and up because there have been a lot of changes and going back and forth between versions would suck :) But it's really a QoL improvement only, functionally it still works the same.

Does the search functionaltiy work on the 1.21.6 version or only 1.22? Any plans to add it to 1.21 if not already there?

Update to 1.22, added waypoint list and auto locate on map feature.  Also, as to a personal message I will answer here, you MUST hit save after each edit or it will be lost.

Added discord channel for bug reporting and back link to website

Update to have notes auto open when editing waypoint, no more silly button presses!

Still very much a WIP but it works well enough for regular use, remeber you are your own line wrap, you will understand when you get to the end of line, it's being worked on :)

this seems hella awesome, might have great use for waypoints which could use much more specific details!

Haha, I'm so dumb, rebind the key to any key that doesn't type :)
