Viewing Your Coordinates In-Game

Equipping the Compass

Craft or obtain a standard vanilla compass in your world. Place the compass into your hotbar and select it in your main hand, or press your off-hand swap key (default F) to hold it in your off-hand slot. The plugin detects the item whenever it is carried in either hand.

Reading Coordinates in the Action Bar

Once equipped, look directly above your hotbar at the bottom of your screen. The action bar automatically displays your active coordinates and cardinal facing direction. As you walk, turn, or change elevation, these numbers update in real time.

Using the Debug Screen

If you prefer viewing the complete vanilla debug screen, press F3 while keeping the compass equipped in your main hand or off-hand. The plugin unhides the vanilla position numbers on the debug overlay as long as the compass remains in hand.

Hiding Location Data

To hide coordinates again, switch to an empty hotbar slot, swap to another tool, or remove the compass from your off-hand. Your action bar clears immediately, and the F3 debug screen will once again conceal world position numbers to promote fair exploration across the server.
