Dark Compass
This mod adds two items, a new compass and a material used to craft it.
Mob Spawners will now drop a Spawner Fragment when broken.
This fragment can be combined with an amethyst shard to create a Dark Compass.
This compass, when used, locks onto the nearest dark patch within a 50 block square radius.
Useful for finding any hidden patches underneath your base.\
