Opticraft Community

So I made sure to read all the suggestions portal topics and such to make sure that I wasn't posting something that has been discussed. If this has already been discussed than I will lock the topic. Anyway, I have an idea. In order to find your current position on the map you must type /getpos and scan through the live map to the coordinates. I, for one, find this be slightly annoying and time consuming. I think it would be neat (although i dont know how easy this would be to implement) to have the command /getlink. Basically it would find your coordinates similarily to /getpos and it would generate a link to your exact position on the livemap. I do not know how feasible (hope i spelled that correctly) this would all be but it's just an idea.

I would love to hear feedback on this.

Yes.

Yes...

cool idea

If you know how the map url works, you don't have to scroll. I believe it goes like this: smp.opticraft.net/map/#/xcoordinate/64/zcoordinate/max/0/0

makes the plugin easier to create

well it is 0/0 for the new guest world 1/0 for old guest and 2/0 for member

That's not correct. The number before the "/0/0" is the zoom level. 'Max' is the closest zoom level, whereas 0, 1, 2, etc. represents the zoom level away from Max.

I am saying the last two numbers of the url, the third to last is the zoom level from what I have gathered

First world problems.

Presumably, you would want to be on the highest zoom level. If not, you could zoom out.

Stop being lazy, go ingame and type /getpos as shown here:


Then, put the X and Z coords in as shown here:
(I know I messed up on the Z.)

And your position will be in the center as shown here:

(Don't forget to change the world you're in if you're in another world)

There is no need for this command since you can just do that. It would be a waste of the Dev's time to make this, there are larger priorities.
I know wyboth already posted this, but I thought I would give a visual and my opinion on the suggestion.

Suggestion considered. Locked
