MAP & NAVIGATION
Square Map provides Pinnacle SMP's live browser map and tools for viewing or managing rendered world information.
PLAYER FEATURE Live World Map
Square Map creates the browser-based map used by Pinnacle SMP. It lets players view rendered terrain, switch between available worlds, zoom in and out, read coordinates, and find visible player or server markers.
What Players Should Know
- The map is a rendered view of the world, not a replacement for exploring in Minecraft.
- New construction or terrain changes may take time to appear.
- A player may not appear when player markers are hidden or unavailable.
- Blank areas generally have not been rendered or made available on the map.
- The coordinates shown by the map can help with roads, events, meeting points, and shared builds.

Map differences: A recently changed area can look outdated until its map tile is rendered again.
