+# FindYourWay
+
+Find Your Way provides several compasses to structures generated by Minecraft.
+
+Current compasses include:
+- Ender Compass
+- Fortress Compass
+- Monument Compass
+- Village Compass
+
+The compasses automatically point to the nearest structure for the world you are in, and always point forwards if the structure does not exist in your world. You can right-click to re-scan for new structures, such as new Villages.
