Adjust Coordinate Update Speed

Control Action Bar Refresh Rate

By default, coordinates update every 5 ticks. If updates feel too frequent or too slow, you can adjust the delay setting to match your preference and server performance.

How to Change Update Speed

1. Open plugins/CompassCoords/config.yml.

2. Find the delay: line (default is 5).

3. Change the value:

  • Lower numbers (e.g., 2 or 3) = faster updates, more responsive
  • Higher numbers (e.g., 10 or 20) = slower updates, less frequent changes
  • Reference: 20 ticks = 1 second

4. Save and reload.

Performance Note

Very low delays (1–2 ticks) may cause noticeable action bar flickering on slower servers. A value between 5 and 10 is usually comfortable for most players. Test different values to find what feels smooth without impacting server performance.
