Better coordinate records
by xob368
Better coordinate records is a Fabric client mod that copies the player's current XYZ position to the clipboard when the C key is pressed.
What it does
Pressing C copies the current coordinates in full XYZ format to the clipboard, so a position can be pasted into chat, a note or a server command without typing it by hand. The copy runs for singleplayer and multiplayer worlds alike, and the author describes the feature as lightweight.
Better coordinate records runs on the client only, so players install it and servers need nothing extra. It is released under the MIT License, is not open source, and files exist for 1.21.7 and 1.21.8, with 1.1.0 for 1.21.8 as the latest Fabric build, published on 2026-03-13. The first release arrived on 2026-02-20.
The mod targets players who share locations with friends, save spots for later or build and explore on servers. It does not change world generation or gameplay, and the author notes it sends no data to external servers.
