Find home in hardcore Minecraft with reduced debug information?

Arqade Asked on March 10, 2021

I am playing in a hardcore survival Minecraft single player world where I have reduced debug information. I am currently at my home but I’d like to explore. I cannot write down my co-ordinates and I cannot use a map because they are both limited in size and your position relative to the map disappears after a few hundred blocks.

How do I, without the use of mods or tools (programs, websites, etc), save and come back to my home after exploring my hardcore survival world with reduced debug information?

I have tried walking "only in one direction" however this is very boring and I tend to walk slightly to the left, meaning after 10K blocks I will not be able to "go straight back". Having a path of blocks is also not ideal because they can be difficult to set up properly. If I have a block placed a bit further down for some reason then I might not see it and then go in another direction searching.

Маке а compass and a lodestone. Place the lodestone in your home. Use the compass on the lodestone. The compass will always point to that lodestone.

There is also a cheaper method if your home is close to the world spawn: A normal compass always points to world spawn. Mark a path from your home to the world spawn and then go exploring. With the compass you can always go back to world spawn and from there - to your home.

The only way I could think of (without cheating) is holding down F3+C to crash your game. This probably isn't ideal, but you can find you coordinates. Look for something like this in the crash report:

A detailed walkthrough of the error, its code path and all known details is as follows:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-- Head --
Thread: Render thread
Stacktrace:
    at ?(?:?)

-- Affected level --
Details:
    All players: 1 total; [?['Player Name'/1713, l='ClientLevel', x=XPOS, y=YPOS, z=ZPOS]]

where "?" could be anything, depending on the version, "Player Name" is your username, XPOS is the X, YPOS the Y and ZPOS the Z.

This isn't very ideal, so there is a another method that could be considered cheating:

Pause the game, press "Open to LAN", allow cheats, and press "Start LAN World". Now type /gamerule reducedDebugInfo false and press Enter. "F3" should now contain coordinates.

In early game (before you can build a compass) build towers with torches on them or draw arrows on the ground in torches, or in some contrasting block.
