simple-coordinate
by datsuns
Simple Coordinate shows the player's current coordinates as a HUD overlay, with the display position, text color and detail level set in its configuration screen.
What it does
The HUD readout is the core function: while the player is in the world, the current coordinates stay visible on screen. Display position, text coloring and the amount of detail shown can all be changed through the config display information options, and the supported configurations are kept in one place for each loader.
Simple Coordinate requires Cloth Config API, Fabric API and Mod Menu on Fabric. On NeoForge the same coordinate display works with Cloth Config API as its required dependency. The mod is client-side only, so only the player's client needs it and servers do not. It is open source under the CC0 1.0 Universal license and published for Fabric and NeoForge across 11 release versions, 1.19.3 – 26.3.
Key features
Current position on screen
The current coordinates are drawn on screen as a plugin overlay, so the player can read their position without opening any menu.
Display position
The readout can be placed in a chosen corner of the screen, so it stays clear of the chat and other HUD elements.
Text coloring
The color of the coordinate text can be set in the configuration, which helps it stand out against different backgrounds.
Detail information
Extra detail beyond the raw numbers can be shown, and the amount displayed is adjusted in the config screen.
