Coordinates

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

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

• The p 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

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

Screenshot showing the debug information, with coordinates XYZ, Facing, and Block position.

The block position of player shown in Bedrock Edition.

In Java Edition, pressing Template:Key/m (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 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

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.

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

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.

Each defense point reduces any damage dealt to the player, which is absorbed by armor by 4%, increasing additively with the number of defense points. Different materials and combinations of armor provide different levels of defense. The following table shows the amount of defense points added by chestplates. {| class="wikitable" data-description="Chestplate defense points" |- !scope="col" | Material !scope="col" | Defense points |- !scope="row" | Leather | {{armor|3}} |- !scope="row" | Golden | rowspan="2" | {{armor|5}} |- !scope="row" | Chainmail |- !scope="row" | Iron | {{armor|6}} |- !scope="row" | Diamond | rowspan="2" | {{armor|8}} |- !scope="row" | Netherite |} ===Knockback Resistance === A netherite chestplate provides 10% knockback resistance. === Durability === The following table shows the amount of damage each piece of armor can absorb before being destroyed. Any "hit" from a damage source that can be blocked by armor removes one point of durability from each piece of armor worn for every {{hp|4}} of incoming damage (rounded down, but never below 1). Damage taken that unenchanted armor does not protect against (such as [[Damage#Fall damage|falling]] or [[Damage#Drowning|drowning]]) does not damage the armor, even if it is enchanted to protect against that type of damage. The following chart displays how many hits chest plates can endure. Netherite armor is not damaged by [[lava]] or [[fire]] when worn. {| class="wikitable" data-description="Chestplate durability" |- ! Material !

Chainmail chestplates may be repaired in this way with iron ingots. They may also be repaired by crafting them together with another chestplate of the same material. === Enchantments === A chestplate can receive the following [[enchantment]]s: {| class="wikitable" |- !

Piglins can wear other chestplates but are not attracted to them. They prefer stronger chestplates over weaker chestplates, with one exception: They always prefer golden chestplates over all other chestplates, throwing out stronger chestplates to equip them. Enchanted chestplates are preferred over unenchanted chestplates. == Sounds == {{el|je}}: {{Sound table |sound=Equip leather1.ogg |sound2=Equip leather2.ogg |sound3=Equip leather3.ogg |sound4=Equip

rod]]s and [[lead]]s. When placed as a [[block]], string becomes '''tripwire''', which can be combined with [[Tripwire Hook|tripwire hooks]] to form a tripwire circuit. == Obtaining== String can be obtained from [[drop]]s, breaking [[cobweb]]s, [[fishing]], [[bartering]], and as gifts from [[cat]]s. String can be looted from [[jungle temple]]s, [[desert pyramid]] chests, and [[dungeon]]s. ===Breaking === Tripwire can be {{control|mine|text=mined}} instantly with any [[tool]], dropping string. Tripwire is also removed and drops string as an [[item]] when: *[[Water]] flows into its space * A [[piston]] pushes it or moves a [[block]] into its space Tripwire is destroyed without dropping string if [[lava]] flows into its space. A [[cobweb]] drops string when it is broken in these ways (see also {{section link|Cobweb|Usage}}): *Breaking a cobweb with a [[sword]] *Pushing a cobweb with a [[piston]] *[[Water]] breaking a cobweb by flowing over it (flowing [[lava]] destroys cobwebs without leaving string) ===Natural generation=== Five pieces of tripwire generate naturally in every [[jungle temple]]. ===Mob loot === [[Spider]]s and [[cave spider]]s drop 0–2 string upon death. The maximum is increased by 1 per level of [[Looting]], for a maximum of 0–5 string with Looting III. [[Strider]]s drop 2–5 string upon death. The maximum is increased by 1 per level of [[Looting]], for a maximum of 2–8 string with Looting III.{{only|Java|short=1}} [[Cat]]s drop 0–2 string upon death, unaffected by Looting.<ref>{{bug|MC-200707||Looting does not increase drops for iron golems and cats}}</ref> ===Chest loot=== {{LootChestItem|string}} ===Fishing=== String has a 0.6% ({{frac|3|500}}) chance of being caught when [[fishing]] with an unenchanted fishing rod. The chance decreases to 0.5% ({{frac|1|200}}), 0.4% ({{frac|1|250}}), and 0.3% ({{frac|3|1000}}) if the fishing rod is enchanted with [[Luck of the Sea]] at enchantment levels I, II, and III, respectively. ===Cat gifts=== {{main|Cat#Gifts}} Tamed [[cat]]s have a 70% chance of giving the [[player]] a gift when they wake up from a [[bed]], and the gift has a 16.13% chance to be a string. ===Bartering === [[Piglin]]s may [[barter]] 3-9 string when given a [[gold ingot]]. == Usage== String can be used as a crafting ingredient and tripwire can be used as a [[redstone circuit]] component. It can also be used to keep [[player]]s from ender-pearling through that space. === Crafting ingredient=== {{crafting usage}} ===Redstone component=== {{redirect|Tripwire|tripwire hooks|Tripwire Hook}} {{see also|Redstone circuits}} String can be placed as tripwire, which can be used to detect [[entity|entities]] as part of a tripwire circuit. [[Observer]]s can also be used with a tripwire to generate redstone signals. ;Placement To place tripwire, {{control|use}} string while pointing at a surface facing the space the tripwire should occupy. {{Schematic | caption = '''Tripwire Circuit''' |SB|th-$w|tw-$ew|th-$e|SB }} :In order to activate [[tripwire hook]]s, tripwire must be part of a "tripwire circuit": a straight line of [[block]]s consisting of a block with a tripwire hook attached to it, a "tripwire line" (1 to 40 blocks of tripwire), and a second tripwire hook attached to another block. ;Activation Tripwire activates if almost any [[entity]] ([[player]]s, [[mob]]s, [[minecart]]s, [[boat]]s, [[item]]s, [[arrow]]s, etc.) intersects its collision mask. The tripwire remains active until there are no entities intersecting its collision mask. Thrown [[potion]]s, some arrows, thrown [[ender pearl]]s, and thrown [[eyes of ender]] do not activate tripwire. ;Behavior An active tripwire updates adjacent [[block]]s (for example, it can activate a [[Tutorials/Block update detector|BUD circuit]]). Additionally, active tripwires that are part of valid tripwire circuits cause the attached tripwire hooks to activate (producing [[redstone]] power). Active tripwires do ''not'' themselves produce redstone power. When tripwire is broken (including by being washed away by spreading [[water]] {{in|java}}) after being part of a valid tripwire circuit, it activates the attached tripwire hooks for 5 redstone ticks (10 game [[tick]]s, or 0.5 seconds barring lag).
