Features

• Live teammate tracking — every other gnome shown as a blip, positioned relative to you, powered by the game's own networking (works for host and clients alike)
• Polished radar chrome — anti-aliased backdrop, glowing ring, animated sweep, range rings, a compass with a North marker, and a facing chevron for you
• Decorative frame — wrap the dial in a custom border image (the mushroom-and-lantern frame it ships with, or your own), with a toggle to hide the plain ring underneath
• Peeking gnome mascot — a little gnome pops up over the top of the radar now and then, purely for flavor; togglable, positionable, and swappable for your own artwork
• Off-range edge arrows — anything past the radar's range becomes a rim arrow pointing toward it, so you always get a direction
• Captured-teammate highlight — grabbed gnomes stand out and pulse, so you know exactly who needs rescuing
• Elevation markers — optional up/down indicators for anyone on another floor of the house
• Toggleable layers, each with its own color — Players (on by default), plus optional Grandpa, Cat, Loot, and Exits layers (all off by default)
• Fully configurable — corner, size, range, opacity, rotation mode, colors, per-layer toggles, plus the frame and mascot
• Client-side only — no host required, everyone runs it independently
• Only renders in a run — stays out of your way in menus and loading screens

Usage

Press M in a run to show or hide the radar. Everything else lives in the config file, generated after the first launch.

Key settings

| General | Corner | TopRight | Which screen corner it sits in |

Tip: for the cleanest look with the ornate frame, set Chrome/ShowRing = false (and optionally Chrome/Compass = false) so nothing competes with it.

Custom art

The frame and the gnome are just PNG images, so you can replace them with your own — no asset bundle needed. The mod looks for each image in two places, in order:

• A loose file sitting next to the DLL (.../BepInEx/plugins/GnomingSystem)
• An image bundled inside the mod itself

To use your own, drop a Border.png or gnome.png next to the DLL and it takes priority over the bundled one.
