Baston's Coordinates

by bastontheking

Baston's Coordinates is a Fabric HUD mod that shows the player's position, compass heading, local time and FPS in a compact on-screen panel.

FabricClient-side onlyMIT License26.1.2

What it does

The panel draws XYZ coordinates with positive and negative values in separate colours, a compass that marks N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W and NW, and a row with the local real-world clock in HH:mm or HH:mm:ss. An independent FPS panel stacks automatically below the coordinates, and the whole panel widens only when more features are active.

The mod is modelled on the Batty's Coordinates design, with a minimalist layout that the author extended with a player head drawn beside the compass, a hat overlay on that head, and movement chevrons with X and Z lines that show the direction of travel. The F3 debug overlay hides automatically while the HUD is shown, so the two do not double up.

Only the client needs the mod, so servers run without it and players can use it alone in single-player or on any server. Fabric API is required, while Cloth Config API and Mod Menu are optional and add a settings screen. The HUD previews changes in the config screen, and settings take effect immediately after clicking Save and Quit. The mod is published for Fabric only, for 26.1.2, and the code is under the MIT License, but the project is not open source.

Key features

  1. Coordinates with sign colours

    X, Y and Z appear with separate colours for positive and negative values, so direction is readable at a glance.

  2. Compass and player head

    A cardinal compass with eight points sits next to a rendered player head that carries its hat overlay.

  3. Movement indicators

    Chevrons and X and Z lines indicate which way the player is moving along each axis.

  4. Clock and FPS rows

    The local real-world time is shown in its own row, and a separate FPS panel stacks below the coordinates.

  5. Automatic F3 hiding

    The F3 debug overlay is hidden while this HUD is active, and the panel width grows only when extra features are on.
