Consensus reached, page is moved from Player locator bar to Locator Bar. Outrowed (talk) 10:12, 11 April 2025 (UTC)

The locator bar also works on other entities too, using waypoint_transmit_range attribute.

Heck, maybe rename it to "waypoint". Should I rename it?

 Support renaming to "Locator bar". Seeing as how they are called locatorBar and useLocatorBar as game rules on BE and JE respectively, and how the BE experiment is also called "Locator Bar", calling them just "Locator bar" seems about right. Waypoint is not it because they are a part of the locator bar, i.e. you see entities' colored waypoints on the locator bar, not the other way around. Outrowed (talk) 16:20, 9 April 2025 (UTC)

@Sul4ur: Since no one opposes, you may rename it to "Locator Bar"; notice the "B", it's capitalized like that in the game (MCW:TITLE). The article content however does not have to follow the title's capitalization (MCW:CAPS). Outrowed (talk) 06:38, 11 April 2025 (UTC)

Incorrect arrow reasoning?

> If the target is on a significantly different Y-level, an arrow pointing to the target vertically appears over the indicator


From my testing, this doesn't depend on the Y-level difference, but on whether or not the waypoint is within view of the camera vertically. Maybe it's also the 120° rule used horizontally, not sure. Either way this should be changed, as the Y-level is not a factor here. 2A02:8206:7A54:DB00:8D6C:6593:B2C3:D3BE 23:26, 28 June 2025 (UTC)

That was likely an oversight when the feature was initially released alongside the article. Borrowing the information from the Chinese article counterpart, it is now fixed accordingly. Thank you for reporting this issue! Feel free to edit and improve the article otherwise. Outrowed (talk) 04:46, 29 June 2025 (UTC)

Unresolved

refers to waypoints as both squares and circles which I find subjective in context to the rest of the game's UI design style or any pixelated design that small. really could just call it a dot of varying sizes

also first trivia should be marked as Java only
