Player-generated markers

These markers are for in-world objects built by or discovered by players.

Generated structures are also shown below with the intention of being tagged on discovery by a player. This is intended as a simple courtesy to other players as they can immediately see from the map if someone has been to a specific site already.

Automatically-generated markers

These markers are generated automatically from the objects which exist in the world, without needing to be tagged with signs.

	Ender Chests. Marks the location of every Ender Chest in the world. Note that this has the potential to reveal the location of “secret” bases if they contain an Ender Chest!
	End gateways. Marks the location of every End Gateway in The End.
