Usage
The addon works automatically once enabled. When you are within the threshold distance of your assisted quest objective, the compass is hidden. It reappears when you move away.
Note: The compass will not be hidden near breadcrumb objectives (transitional markers such as doors or zone entrances that lead you into the next part of a quest). Only active goal objectives trigger hiding.
