Vanilla Cord Logger
by Ry_guy777
Vanilla Cord Logger lets a player save the current coordinates to a text file with a single key press, without drawing anything on screen.
What it does
Pressing the Home key writes the player's position into a text file kept on the desktop, so coordinates can be recorded while the hands stay on the controls. Each entry is a clean, readable line, and the file is created the first time it is needed. The mod draws no waypoints, minimaps or HUD overlays, so the game screen stays as vanilla as possible.
The mod is built for players who want a plain coordinate logger that does not break immersion, and it suits survival worlds, exploration and long builds where bases and points of interest need to be noted. It is client-side only, so only the player who installs it needs it, and a server does not have to run it. Files are published for NeoForge only, for 1.21.8, 1.21.9, 1.21.10 and 1.21.11, with 1.0.0 for 1.21.11 as the latest file, first published on 2026-02-01. The code is not open source; the mod is released under All rights reserved.
