GPS Command

Halda shared this bug 9 months ago
Solved

Typing /gps within chat window allows creating GPS coordinates with longer names, and characters that are not allowed when creating a gps from within the gps menu. Not sure if one way is preferred above the other.

Hello Halda,

Thank you for reaching out to our forum.

Could you please provide more details about the issue? Did you encounter this issue on a modded (has active MODs) lobby/server, a vanilla (unmodded) lobby/server, or on our official servers? Or was it in a modded single-player world?

If the issue occurred in a modded world or server, could you check if it persists in a vanilla world or server? If it does, please share a screen recording/video showing the issue.

Kind Regards,

Keen Software House: QA Department

Official servers. I'll maybe recreate it tonight, but if I remember correctly, typing /gps Mining: Iron will create a GPS "Mining: Iron". If one then goes into the GPS menu and tries to add another word like "Mining: Iron and Ice" it will not accept it as it states there is a character that is being used that shouldn't be there... Removing the ":" solves the error. If I remember correctly one can create GPS names this way that are longer then what can be created in the GPS menu. Not sure if this is a major issue or not, but I'll try this again when I get some time and take some screenshots.

Here are some screen shots:eeb90be307e244147feda0774771400934baee03ac5ecf5b53df296333834788


Here is a screen shot of a gps that was created using ":" and also way longer then what is normally accepted when using just the GPS menu:

The max character limit when creating GPS from menu is around 32 characters, but using /gps command there doesn't seem to be a max character limit.
