Confirming Vanilla Coordinate Compatibility at Block Zero
Testing the Starting Origin
While Efficient Hashing introduces a completely new mathematical formula for indexing block positions, it maintains strict compatibility with vanilla coordinate conventions. Most importantly, the starting block position in the world still equals zero, ensuring world origins and grid alignments remain intact.
1. Load into your world and press F3 to display the coordinate display.
2. Travel toward coordinate origin (X: 0, Z: 0).
3. Stand directly at the origin block and inspect the targeted block data on the right side of the debug screen.
4. Verify that the block position reads zero at the central axis, confirming that the new math has not shifted the world grid.
Checking Remote Coordinates
After checking the origin, travel outward into surrounding terrain such as snowy plains or near ruined portals:
1. Aim at various blocks, including stone and surface grass.
2. Observe the block coordinates on the F3 overlay as you move between positive and negative coordinates.
3. Confirm that block positions scale cleanly in all directions, maintaining vanilla alignment while benefiting from collision-free math.
