Format Coordinates with Custom Colors and Text

Create a Custom Display Format

The text: option lets you arrange coordinates, direction, world name, and rotation data however you want, with full color control using color codes.

How to Build Your Format

1. Open plugins/CompassCoords/config.yml.

2. Edit the text: line using these placeholders:

  • %x, %y, %z — integer coordinates
  • %dx, %dy, %dz — decimal coordinates
  • %dir — cardinal direction
  • %world — current world name
  • %yaw, %pitch — rotation angles

3. Add color codes using & or § (e.g., &6 for gold, &r for reset).

Example Formats

`

text: "&6[&r%world&6]&r %dir | X:%x Y:%y Z:%z"

text: "&b%dir &7| &f%dx, %dy, %dz"

text: "&e%x &8/ &e%y &8/ &e%z &7(%dir)"
