1MB-MapHide Guide
Introduction
Section titled “Introduction”1MB-MapHide lets you control whether your live player marker appears on BlueMap. Use it when you want privacy while building, exploring, testing, or hanging out away from the crowd.
Your marker visibility affects the live BlueMap web map only. It does not make you vanished in game, invisible to other players, or hidden from staff tools.
How Players Use It
Section titled “How Players Use It”Most players only need one command:
/map hideRunning /map hide toggles your marker. If you are visible, it hides you. If you are hidden, it shows you again.
The legacy command is still available:
/bmpc/bmpc toggleUse /bmpc info to see what MapHide is, which version is installed, useful starting commands, and the canonical docs link.
Available Features
Section titled “Available Features”- Toggle your own BlueMap marker on or off.
- Explicitly show yourself with
/bmpc show. - Explicitly hide yourself with

Section titled “Commands”| Command | What it does |

Permissions Or Rank Requirements
Section titled “Permissions Or Rank Requirements”The default player permissions are enabled for everyone:
| Permission | Default | What it allows |
|---|---|---|
maphide.player | everyone | Access to player /bmpc commands. |
maphide.player.toggle | everyone | /bmpc, /bmpc toggle, and /map hide. |
maphide.player.show | everyone | /bmpc show. |
maphide.player.hide | everyone | /bmpc hide. |
maphide.player.help | everyone | /bmpc help. |
maphide.player.info | everyone | /bmpc info. |
Some ranks or staff-managed states can force your marker to stay visible or hidden. If that happens, the command tells you that your permissions are forcing your map state.
Rewards, Costs, Limits, And Cooldowns
Section titled “Rewards, Costs, Limits, And Cooldowns”There are no rewards, currency costs, or item costs.
By default there is no cooldown and no automatic timer. The server can optionally configure an auto-toggle timer. If enabled, using /map hide before the timer ends resets that timer.
Placeholders
Section titled “Placeholders”Some menus, scoreboards, or other server features may use MapHide placeholders when PlaceholderAPI is installed. Player-facing values can include whether you are visible, hidden, forced, or waiting on a timer.
Important Notes
Section titled “Important Notes”- MapHide controls your BlueMap marker only.
- Staff may still be able to see you through normal moderation tools.
- Forced visibility permissions override player commands while enabled.
- If the map has just restarted, BlueMap may need a moment before marker changes work.
