How To Pull Up Coordinates In Minecraft For Mac

Pressing F3 brings up a debugging screen which shows some useful information and allows you to change some settings. There’s a lot of information on the debug screen; here is a guide to just the useful bits. X, y, z coordinates. X and z are your map coordinates. In order to get teleported to a specific location, you can enter the desired coordinated associated with it. You can manage to find the exact coordinate first and then you can teleport yourself accordingly. /tp X Y Z (e.g./tp 617 72-139) 6. Teleport the other player:-Minecraft also makes it possible for you to teleport a player somewhere else. Hello, i have recently had a problem on my laptop where my f keys don't work on minecraft and theres a really easy thing to do to fix it you only need 1 step! 1.When you press the f key it should do its normal job like 'play' or 'rewind' or turn the brightness down but we don't want these so press the FN button that is on the bottom left of.

This Minecraft tutorial explains how to use a game command to find your current XYZ coordinates with screenshots and step-by-step instructions.

Now you can quickly and easily find your coordinates in Minecraft Java Edition (PC/Mac), Pocket Edition, Windows 10 and Education Edition with the /tp command.

Let's explore how to do this.

Supported Platforms

The command to find your coordinates is available in the following versions of Minecraft:

PlatformSupported (Version*)
Java Edition (PC/Mac)Yes
Pocket Edition (PE)Yes (0.16.0)
Xbox 360No
Xbox OneYes (1.2)
PS3No
PS4Yes (1.14.0)
Wii UNo
Nintendo SwitchYes (1.5.0)
Windows 10 EditionYes (0.16.0)
Education EditionYes

* The version that it was added or removed, if applicable.
NOTE: Pocket Edition (PE), Xbox One, PS4, Nintendo Switch, and Windows 10 Edition are now called Bedrock Edition. We will continue to show them individually for version history.

How to Enter the Command

1. Open the Chat Window

How

The easiest way to run a command in Minecraft is within the chat window. The game control to open the chat window depends on the version of Minecraft:

  • For Java Edition (PC/Mac), press the T key to open the chat window.
  • For Pocket Edition (PE), tap on the chat button at the top of the screen.
  • For Xbox One, press the D-Pad (right) on the controller.
  • For PS4, press the D-Pad (right) on the controller.
  • For Nintendo Switch, press the right arrow button on the controller.
  • For Windows 10 Edition, press the T key to open the chat window.
  • For Education Edition, press the T key to open the chat window.

2. How to Find your Coordinates

You can easily find your current XYZ coordinates in Minecraft with the following command:

How To Pull Up Coordinates In Minecraft For Mac

Type the command in the chat window. As you are typing, you will see the command appear in the lower left corner of the game window. Press the Enter key to run the command.

Since we are using the /tp command to teleport ourselves to our current location, Minecraft will display our current coordinates in the lower left corner of the game window.

For

In this example, our current XYZ coordinates in the map are:

For simplicity, we are going to round our coordinates, even though the /tp command shows the coordinates with decimal places.

TIP: Read our tutorial called Understanding the Coordinate System to learn about the XYZ coordinates in Minecraft.

Congratulations, you just learned how to use the /tp command to find your coordinates in Minecraft!

Other Game Commands

You can use other commands and cheats in Minecraft such as:

X, Y and Z coordinate on a Minecraft map.
X and Z axes with directions shown, from a birds-eye view. Red highlights where these axes are different than standard.

Coordinates numerically represent a player's location in a dimension.

Coordinate system[edit]

Coordinates are based on a grid where three lines or axes intersect at the origin point.

  • The x-axis indicates the player's distance east (positive) or west (negative) of the origin point—i.e., the longitude,
  • The z-axis indicates the player's distance south (positive) or north (negative) of the origin point—i.e., the latitude,
  • The y-axis indicates how high or low (from 0 to 255, with 64 being sea level) the player is—i.e., the elevation,
  • The unit length of the three axes equal the side of one block. And, in terms of real-world measurement, one block equals 1 cubic meter.

Block position[edit]

How To Pull Up Coordinates In Minecraft For Mac 1.12.2

The position of a block is actually the coordinates of the point at the lower northwest corner of the block, that is, the integer coordinates obtained by rounding down the coordinates inside the block.

In Minecraft, decimal coordinates usually needs to be converted into integer coordinates by rounding down, which is called the block position of the coordinate.

Displaying coordinates[edit]

In Java Edition, pressing F3 (or Fn + F3 on Macs and some laptops or Alt + Fn + F3 on newer Macs) brings up a debug screen which gives the player's current coordinates in the upper left part of the screen.

In Bedrock Edition, the block position of the player can be displayed by changing the world options. The coordinates are displayed in a box in the top left, if the 'Show Coordinates' option is turned on in the game settings screen or /gamerule showcoordinates true is used.

Interpreting coordinates[edit]

The origin point marks the zero point for the x and z coordinates. Hence, it may be thought of as the 0,0 coordinate:

  • X-axis = 0
  • Z-axis = 0

As the player travels south, the z-axis number increases; travel north and it decreases. Similarly, the x-axis number increases as the player travels east and decreases as you travel west.

As the player's elevation rises, the y-axis number increases, and as the player's elevation lowers, that number decreases.

The Y coordinate works a bit differently than the x and z coordinates in terms of spawning. Typically, the player does not spawn at y-coordinate 0. Instead, Y=63 is the Overworld water sea level, Y=31 is the Nether lava sea, and Y=11 is the overworld lava flood sea. To clarify: The sea level is 63, 11, or 31, which refers to the block position of top water/lava is 62, 10, or 30.

For

The player's coordinates are actually the coordinates of the center at the bottom of player's collision box. When the display shows you are at Y=63, then the player's feet are at Y=63, and the player's eyes are at 64.62.

Coordinate usage[edit]

Coordinates may be put to a variety of uses.

Once players establish bases, they can note their coordinates before going exploring. Then if they get lost or respawn, they can find their way back to their bases by referring to those coordinates.

Coordinates are often used when sharing level seeds to give directions on where to go to find things.

Display of coordinates can be disabled using the command /gamerule reducedDebugInfo true:

For Bedrock Edition, /gamerule showcoordinates true applies.
