Compass Tracking

I think there should be a thing where you rename a compass with an anvil like tracker and in the chat say /have (name of compass) track (or follow) (player name) and then the compass forever tracks object until it dies

    Maybe it could be an NBT tag instead. like /give @p compass{Tracks:<playername>}

    This would be really useful for things like mapmaking. Perhaps a command like: /track <compass_name> <tracked_entity> and /track <compass_name> <location:xyz> might be a good format. (I mainly play on bedrock so NBT wouldn't really be an option)

    Very good idea, HOWEVER I personally think that this should be CRAFTED e.g. 4 crystals and one compass can be crafted into a player tracking compass.

    I think they could make something like those copper posts theyre added to make a compass point towards it. Maybe incorporate magnet as a material in minecraft could make some really cool redstone blocks too
