Compass
Compass points to world spawn and crafts maps, using iron ingots around redstone dust.

Description
Compass is crafted from four iron ingots around one redstone dust. In the Overworld, its needle points toward the world spawn point, not the player's bed. That makes it a navigation aid for returning to the original area, building spawn hubs, or orienting new players after long exploration.
In the Nether and End, the normal item spins unpredictably because those dimensions lack the same spawn reference. It also serves as a crafting ingredient for maps and recovery compass variants, and can be linked to a lodestone for custom navigation. Even when coordinates are available, a simple pointer remains useful for players who prefer visual direction over numbers.
