Propose a simple approach to help find bones #9

Maybe it would make sense to add coordinates to way-point title instead of players name.

That sounds good, i found out after the implementation of the current bones-message thing, that the minetest_game already has a "show-bones" mode: https://github.com/minetest/minetest_game/blob/master/mods/bones/init.lua#L191 (that was sitting there for a year already...)

But with a waypoint on the hud it would justify its implementation again :smile:

It would be easy to implement a "naive" approach that shows a waypoint for x seconds after your death (like in that helper function: https://github.com/damocles-minetest/epic/blob/master/common.lua#L26)

EDIT: Sorry, i thought i was commenting on an issue :confused: ignore the above... :man_facepalming:
