Visualize Region Boundaries with the Admin Compass

When to Use the Admin Compass

The Admin Compass is a special tool that reveals the invisible boundaries of regions in your world. Use it when you want to see exactly where named areas begin and end, especially useful for understanding nested regions or planning new areas.

Viewing Boundaries

Hold the Admin Compass and the blue boundary boxes of nearby regions will become visible as particle outlines. This lets you see the 3D shape and size of each region without needing to edit them. The boundaries will display in real-time as you move around.

Planning New Regions

Use the Admin Compass to check for overlapping regions or to find gaps where you might want to add new named areas. This is especially helpful on large servers or organized maps where many regions already exist.

Note

The Admin Compass is typically restricted to players with admin permissions. Check with your server administrator if you need access to this tool.
