\ncrafting_toast<\/p>\n
Crafted with a Filled Map, a Book and something sticky (Slimeball or Honey Bottle)
\nThe source map determines the Atlas’ scale.
\nTo expand the atlas simply add Filled or Empty maps to it via Crafting or Cartography Table.
\nFilled Maps which are added must be of same Scale.
\nTo remove maps you can craft it with shears in a Crafting Table. Using a Cartography Table instead allows for more control
\nConfigurable to change the cost for adding Empty Maps to your Atlas to use Paper instead of Maps.
\nMaps from different mods such as Supplementaries Slice Maps or Twilight Forest Magic and Maze Maps can also be added
\nAtlases can be cloned and merged within a Cartography table<\/p>\n

Atlases will render a Minimap on the top left of your screen. Only works when the Atlas is active (on your hot-bar or off-hand by default).
\nEmpty Maps are consumed when you enter an un-mapped region, generating new maps and expalding the atlas. (Not needed in creative)
\nYou can lock the atlas by shift clicking it, preventing new maps from being created.
\nAtlases do work inter-dimensionally. They create new Maps in new Dimensions as you’d expect.
\nThe Minimap supports the ability to display extra information such as your current X, Y, & Z coordinates, cardinal directions as well as your current Biome.
\nMinimap can be changed to following and rotate with the player, or use the grid based Vanilla Map system.
\nUsing an atlas on a “Map decoration providing block” (Such as banners) will add it to the atlas. Same effect can be achieved by pressing “b”<\/p>\n

\nIt also has selectable tabs for each Map Decoration you’ve added in each Dimension. Clicking these will center your view on them.

Supplementaries
\nCustom Map Markers can be added to the atlas like normal markers. See Supplementaries Wiki for supported blocks.
\nSlice Maps can be added to the atlas.
\nThis will allow you to map out the Nether.
\nYou can switch the current viewed slice by using keybind or throught the World Map “Slice Map” bookmark.

\nConfigs are there to automatically switch the Minimap view to the slice with closest Y level.

\nRecommended Additions<\/p>\n
Cheaper Maps Recipe Data Pack [1.19] – Why would a Map require a Compass? This Data Pack adds a recipe for Empty Maps that’s simply 1 Paper + 1 Ink Sac shapeless. Alternative if you rather not use the Paper cost setting.
\nOptional “Modern” Resource Pack [1.19] – This Resource Pack gives the Mini-map and World-map a “modern” look, abandoning the vanilla Map style textures.<\/p>\n
