Minimal Coords HUD
by renapti
Minimal Coords HUD shows the player's coordinates on screen in a configurable overlay, with keybinds that copy them to the clipboard.
What it does
A key press copies the current coordinates, so they can be pasted into chat, saved in a notes file or shared with friends later. The copy action plays a sound cue, and the HUD can display coordinates in any dimension, including non-vanilla ones. Interdimensional copying helps estimate where a Nether portal exit will land in the Overworld, and death coordinates can be copied soon after a death to recover gear.
The overlay can be placed anywhere on the screen, spaced to taste, and set to show extra decimal digits, up to 16 when copying. The configuration screen adds directional indicators that show which way the player faces, and chat messages use higher-contrast colors. The mod runs on Fabric only, and it is a client-side mod, so servers run without it. Files target 1.20.1 – 1.20.6 and are released under the CC0 1.0 Universal license, which places the code in the public domain.
Installation needs Cloth Config API and Fabric API. Mod Menu is optional, but it is needed to open the options screen from the mod list. Some releases also cover several game versions at once because the mod makes few API changes.
Key features
Keybind coordinate copy
A keybind copies the current coordinates, with decimal digits set by the player, and a sound plays when the copy happens.
Movable, configurable HUD
The coordinate overlay can be placed at any position and spaced to the player's liking, and its text is kept bright and clean.
Directional indicators
A compass-style indicator shows the direction the player is facing, so a destination can be reached without trial and error.
Interdimensional coordinates
Coordinates can be copied in another dimension to estimate where a Nether portal link will end up, without a calculator.
Recovery coordinates
Coordinates can be copied right after a death, so the spot where items were dropped can be found again.
