Quick start

Get MTR waypoints and route lines on your map in under a minute.

Already installed? Here’s the 60-second tour.

1. Open the world map

Join a world or server that has an MTR network, then open Xaero’s World Map (default key Y). Within ~5 seconds you’ll see:

  • Blue [MTR] waypoints at each station.
  • Gold [MTR] Depot: waypoints at each depot (off by default — enable them in configuration).
  • An MTR toggle widget in the top-left corner of the map, and colored route lines drawn across the map.

2. Switch display modes

By default you get one waypoint per station. Switch to per-platform detail:

/mtrsurveyor mode platform

Now each platform gets its own waypoint, and hovering shows the routes that call at it and their destinations:

[MTR] Central | 1->Airport, 3->Harbor

Switch back with:

/mtrsurveyor mode station

See Display modes for the full comparison.

3. Toggle the route overlay

Click the MTR widget at the top-left of the world map to turn the route-line overlay on (green) or off (red). This is purely visual — waypoints keep working either way.

See Route view for details.

4. Force a resync

MTR Surveyor syncs automatically whenever MTR updates its data (which happens as you move around and load chunks). To force an immediate sync:

/mtrsurveyor syncWaypoints

5. Tweak the config

The most common toggles are exposed as commands:

/mtrsurveyor config enabled true|false
/mtrsurveyor config showStations true|false
/mtrsurveyor config showDepots true|false

For everything else (debug logging, empty stations, hidden routes, init message), edit .minecraft/config/mtrsurveyor.toml — see Configuration.

That’s it — you’re done. Head to the Commands or Configuration reference for the full detail.
