Nether Portal Coords ๐Ÿงญ

The Nether Portal Coords datapack from Vanilla Tweaks provides an automatic and informative way to calculate and display the linked coordinates between the Overworld and the Nether.

๐Ÿง  How It Works

Whenever a player uses a Nether portal (in either direction), the datapack sends them a private message in chat showing the corresponding coordinates in the opposite dimension.

For example:

  • If you enter a portal in the Overworld, you'll see a message like:

    [Nether Portal Coords] Suggested Nether coords: X: 120, Z: -35
  • If you enter a portal in the Nether, you'll see:

    [Nether Portal Coords] Suggested Overworld coords: X: 960, Z: -280

This is based on Minecraft's 1:8 coordinate ratio:

  • 1 block in the Nether = 8 blocks in the Overworld (X and Z only)

The datapack does this math automatically for you and only shows the message to the player using the portal.
