Configuring Death Position Markers and Alerts

Recording Death Coordinates Automatically

When playing in survival, remembering exactly where you fell can save your dropped equipment. Coordinates Display Mod includes built-in tracking for your death location through the Death Position Settings menu:

  • Display on Death Screen: Enable this option (active by default) so that whenever you perish, your exact death coordinates are shown directly on the respawn screen. This allows you to note down your position before clicking respawn.
  • Send in Chat: Keep this toggle enabled to immediately output your death position into the in-game chat log when you die, creating a permanent reference in your recent chat history.

Customizing Death Text Colors

If you are running the Fabric version of the mod, you can make death alerts stand out visually using the Color Settings menu:

  • Death Position Color: Modify the color used for death position text (defaulting to hex code #55ffff). Choosing a distinct hue helps death notifications remain easily identifiable compared to standard coordinate readouts.
  • Data and Definition Colors: You can also adjust the default labels (#55ff55) and coordinate numbers (#ffffff) to ensure death messages contrast cleanly with the rest of your interface and the background overlay.
