This mod adds an item called the ender compass, which points to the nearest stronghold and is crafted using four eyes of ender surrounding a compass, as follows:

In the nether or end, the compass spins around randomly, as there are no strongholds in these dimensions. The same is true in the overworld if structure generation is disabled.
