After a long weekend we are back with another snapshot! This week we are moving the locator bar out of experiments, try it out and continue to give us your feedback over at feedback.minecraft.net. We have also made some improvements to the Realms UI including region selection for your world. Happy Mining!
The Locator Bar is a new default UI element that displays the direction of other players in the world.
If there are no other players in the world the experience bar will display as normal, otherwise if another player is in the world (and that player is not hiding) then the experience bar will appear when experience is gained, otherwise the Locator Bar will display in the same area.

The default implementation is as such:
{\n \"near_distance\": 128,\n \"far_distance\": 332,\n \"sprites\": [\n \"minecraft:default_0\",\n \"minecraft:default_1\",\n \"minecraft:default_2\",\n \"minecraft:default_3\"\n ]\n}\nnear_distance and far_distance are optional and default to the values 128 and 332 respectively.far_distance distance must be greater than near_distancehud/locator_bar_dot/ (the directory textures/gui/sprites/hud/locator_bar_dot).locatorBartrue: enabling the Locator Barfalse will remove all existing Waypoints from all playersuseLocatorBar during the experiment. This may break minor command related features in worlds created in the previous snapshot.waypoint_transmit_range and waypoint_receive_range0.0, Minimum: 0.0, Maximum: 60000000.0Examples:
/attribute @s minecraft:waypoint_transmit_range base set 0 will prevent a player from transmitting (hiding them)/attribute @s minecraft:waypoint_transmit_range base set 80 will only let a player transmit up to 80 blocks (hiding them from players further than that)/attribute @s minecraft:waypoint_receive_range base set 0 will prevent a player from receiving (turns off their Locator Bar)/attribute @s minecraft:waypoint_receive_range base set 120 will only let a player see Locator Bar dots that are within 120 blocks (hiding all players further than that)The Locator Bar works by a server-controlled Waypoint system. Waypoints are received by Players, and connections between Waypoints and Players are managed by the multiplayer server.
