Minecraft compass

There is no division into cardinal points in minecraft. But there is a compass. Players often ask the question: "Why is it needed?" In single player, the compass constantly points to the spawn location. That is, it is best to make a house right in the place where you appeared. And if you go on long journeys, then you just need to take a compass with you. Finding a home in this case will not be difficult for you. And online, he points to the bed without a private, which is closest to you. That is, it shows the place where you can go to sleep.

Let's move on to the craft itself. First of all, we craft an iron pickaxe (or diamond) and go to the mine. We will need to get four iron and one red dust. We smelt iron into iron ingots.

We go into the workbench (you already know how to craft it) and lay out the craft itself: in the center (5th slot) we put the redstone. On top of it is iron. We do the same on the right, left and bottom. We get our compass.

As you know, dear friends, in the human world, in unfamiliar places without navigation systems, it is easy to go astray. And therefore, everyone who sets out on a long journey must take a compass with them on the road.

With us, in minecraft, sometimes you have to get quite far from home. In search of the resources needed to create other useful things in minecraft, various villages and mines, and in general on travels out of pure curiosity.

Compass - English name compass in Minecraft.

As the proverb says: "A good compass does not show the weather." This device, which belongs to the "Tools" section in the game, does not work in the Nether world and in the End, and its arrow rotates randomly. Where does the compass show in Minecraft, in its ordinary world? It turns out that the compass arrow shows the direction of the player's spawn location, even in inventory, chest, and in hand. But in this matter, there are several nuances regarding the modes and versions of the game. For example, in the single-player mode of Minecraft, the compass points to the point of the first appearance of the player, in multiplayer mode, to the bed. Also, up to Mine 1.9 in statistics menu the compass was working, and you could not carry it with you, but after removing it after creation, you could navigate the terrain, looking at the statistics. And until 1.9, orientation was possible with a compass installed on the floor.

The main thing is to craft a compass or get it in some other way. The rest is a matter of technology, but it depends on the version and mode of the game. If the compass does not point to the bed, then you are probably in Hell or Ender, or you are playing in Minecraft's single player mode. Since in this case the arrow is directed to the point of first appearance. And in multiplayer mode, the compass will indicate the direction of your spawn. This is the secret and the answer to the question: "where does the compass show in Minecraft?".

Changes to the use of this item appeared in Minecraft version 1.9. When the compass is thrown or recorded in the game statistics, it does not show the direction to the spawn point and the arrow only looks north.

The compass arrow will show the direction of your spawn location (up to version 1.9).

Crafting, or how to make a map

Any sailing with a bad compass is dangerous (proverb).

A compass is an item that is required to create a map and to navigate the terrain. Its arrow always points to the place of appearance (single-player mode) or to the point of location, at home (multiplayer mode). In the EDGE and the Lower Worlds, it (like the clock) does not work. Its arrow rotates at random.

How to craft

To make a compass in minecraft, you need to take 4 iron ingots and a bar of red dust , place all this on the workbench as follows: - in the center, and place the iron in the shape of a cross around it and then craft the item.

After that, wherever he is: in his hands, in a chest, on the ground - the compass will work.

Using a compass when crafting

As already mentioned, this item is needed to craft a card. To make it in minecraft, you need sheets - 8 pieces and a compass ... The first thing is placed in the center, and around it all the free space is taken up by paper and the card is ready. It is very necessary for orientation on the terrain. Having these two objects, it is impossible to get lost and not find where they came from.

If you want the cardinal points to correspond to the real, then when crafting things, you need to remember a few points:

1. A hacksaw and a hammer are located on the west and north sides, while pliers are on the east and south;
2. In addition, in the game, the direction of movement of the clouds is always west.

In addition to these things, you can make a daylight sensor in minecraft. It is used both to determine the day and to create time bombs. And you can also create an alarm clock, night light, etc.

Moonlight and daylight sensor

In order to make a daylight sensor, you need to take 3 wooden slabs, 3 pieces of glass and 3 blocks of quartz from the Nether world. Then arrange them on the workbench in this order. The top line is glass, the middle one is quartz, the bottom one is wooden.
The daylight sensor sends a signal to the red stone according to the strength of the sunlight. The signal strength of the stone changes during the day. This item will signal all blocks that are nearby, that is, within the same block.

If you need a lunar sensor, then you need to press the RMB on an existing device. After that, it will transmit a signal not from the sun, but from the moon. That is, the daylight device gives a signal during daylight hours, and the lunar one only in the dark. If connected to this device, it will be able to broadcast messages or ensure the change of day automatically. And if you connect this device to an inverter, then you can make an automatic lighting system: while it is light, the sensor works and there is no lighting, as soon as it gets dark, the lighting turns on.
