Enable and customize features from a centralized inspector. Add POIs (points of interest) to any location or gameobject by adding the Compass Pro POI component. You can customize specific options for each POI. - Complete with powerful options: every component comes with many extra options to give your UI a professional look, from curved compass bar to cone of view and LUT/color grading controls in your mini-map and much more. - Interactive: includes many game-ready features such as an interactive mini-map (click or hover on POIs, enter full-screen map mode, zoom/pan around). - Route guidance: guide the player to any point or POI with a point-to-point line or a full NavMesh-computed path, with travelled-part coloring and an auto-managed next-waypoint cue. - Save / Load State: capture and restore the compass runtime state (fog of war, route, visited & runtime POIs, mini-map view) into your own save system. - Split screen / multiple instances: run up to 4 compass navigator instances in the same scene, each with its own viewport and POI groups. - Event system to react to location discovery, icons appearing/disappearing on the compass or mini-map, mouse over/clicks on mini-map icons, and more. - Area of Interest: let the asset focus on POIs within a certain distance and avoid performance issues when handling thousands of POIs. ** Route ** (New in v4) Guide your players without taking over your UI. Provide a destination and Compass Navigator Pro draws and animates the rest. - Renders on three surfaces at once: an animated polyline on the mini-map, a holographic line projected on the ground in the 3D world, and a directional cue on the compass bar. - Set routes from script (point list, or direct line to a position/POI), author them in the inspector as waypoints, or compute them automatically with Unity's NavMesh. - Animated styles (marching ants, dots, arrows, dashes or solid), custom textures, flow speed and corner smoothing. - Travelled-part coloring, auto-advance through waypoints, per-waypoint markers and optional in-world billboards.** Compass Bar **Includes 14 ready-to-use designs: rounded, angled, celtic black and white, 4 fantasy, 6 sci-fi, or just assign your own art in the inspector.

Option to automatically clear the fog as the player moves. - Clear entire fog areas as the player enters them, based on fog volumes added to the scene. - Save and restore the discovered state with the new Save / Load State API.** Radar ** Toggle the mini-map into radar mode, which draws a procedural radar with accurate ring positions based on the desired distance. - Customize ring width, color, opacity and scale distance in meters. - Optional scan animation effect with sample presets.** Screen Indicators ** - Display an on-screen icon with optional title & distance over visible or in-range POIs. - Display off-screen indicators with an anti-overlap system that stacks indicators on the edges to avoid cluttering. ** Save / Load State ** (New in v4) Capture a compass' runtime state into a compact blob you store in your own save file, and restore it later: fog of war discovery, the active route and its progress, visited POIs, runtime-created POIs and the mini-map view. Pick exactly which subsystems to save with a simple scope flag.Extras: - World Scan effect: run one or multiple simultaneous visual scans anywhere in the world, revealing and activating POIs and displaying them on the mini-map and compass. Includes event support to trigger actions when POIs are detected. - Light Beacons that briefly highlight a POI in front of your player by rendering a vertical beam from the POI to the sky. - Heartbeat option: plays a custom audio clip at a variable interval based on distance. - Multi-scene support: existing POIs can preserve their visited state between scene changes.From the makers of Compass Navigator Pro, trusted across multiple versions with responsive support and continuous updates.📖 Documentation | 💬 Support | 🎬 YouTube | 🏢 Publisher Page- Compatible with Built-in, URP and HDRP pipelines.- Compatible with Unity 2022.3 LTS and Unity 6, including Render Graph.- Easy to extend and understand.
