The Biome Locator functions through a dedicated Graphical User Interface (GUI) and a tracking system.

Biome Selection UI

Right-clicking with the Biome Locator opens the main menu. This interface contains several key features:

  • Search Bar: Allows players to type the name of a biome to filter the list
  • Biome List: Displays all available biomes in the current dimension
  • Stats View: Selecting a biome reveals its temperature, downfall (humidity), and rarity
  • Resource View: A unique feature that lists the blocks and items commonly found in that biome (e.g., Cacti in Deserts, Blue Ice in Frozen Oceans)

Tracking and Navigation

Once a biome is selected and the "Locate" button is pressed, the mod begins searching the surrounding area.

  • HUD Display: Information appears in the top-right corner of the screen, showing the status (Searching/Found), the name of the target biome, and the exact distance in blocks
  • Directional Indicator: A dot or needle on the Biome Locator item itself points toward the coordinates of the found biome
  • Teleportation: In Creative Mode, a "Teleport" button becomes available in the UI, allowing instant travel to the located coordinates
