Interpret the coordinates on Minecraft

As a reminder, here's how to interpret XYZ coordinates:

  • X corresponds to East/West
  • Y corresponds to Up/Down
  • Z corresponds to South/North

We invite you to take note of coordinates of your home's location so you can locate it more easily with the help of these.

Use teleport command on Minecraft

At the same time, obtaining the coordinates of your house allows you to use a very useful Minecraft mechanism: teleportation.

Cette dernière requiert la commande « /tp ». Nous avons d’ailleurs effectué un guide complet montrant how to use the TP Minecraft commandWe invite you to consult it by clicking on the link.

Method 2: Using maps on Minecraft

Minecraft gives us the opportunity to make our own card to find our way around our world. For this, you'll need two ingredients:

  • Of paperYou can make it on your craft table by harvesting sugarcane.

  • And a compasswhich you can obtain via iron ingots and redstone powder.

Baking iron ore will yield an iron ingot, while redstone powder can be obtained by mining redstone ore or killing a witch. Follow the exact location of the items. ©Dramsey for Alucare.

From there, simply place a compass in the center of the craft tableWith paper all around to create an empty card.

Method 3: Build your own benchmarks

To view how to find your home in MinecraftYou can build your own guideposts that will point you in the right direction.

Building paths along the usual ones

If there are places where you're used to going, don't hesitate to go there. building pathslike paved paths. These will help you find your way in space.

Building towers

Another way is to building towers. If they're high enough and visible from each other, all you have to do is look in their direction for guidance.

Creating your own reference points

When you're exploring caves or mining, place torches on one side of the wall to identify your progress.

It is even possible to create arrows to show you the way, something not to be underestimated by Minecraft adventurers who want to progress intelligently.

Using the Little Thumb method

For more modest adventures over short distancesIt can be very useful to use useless blocks of earth or other markers along the way. In short, like Tom Thumb on his adventure in the woods...

Method 4: Killing your character

Finally, there's one last, rather radical way to find your home in Minecraft : kill your character. It will respawn on the last bed you used.

Should you land in an unfamiliar location, simply destroy the bed in which you appeared, then kill your character again until it appears in the one for your house. But before you get there, follow the steps above!
