Players began to create maps in Minecraft from the very first appearance of the game itself. This is a completely natural process, since the constant play in the same world will sooner or later get bored. In the beginning, everything was simple and straightforward - small houses, statues, etc. But with the expansion of the game's functionality, it became possible to build maps in "Mancraft" with a complex plot and large volume.
Minecraft map application
The game world map is useful enough for any player. But not many people know how to create a map in Minecraft. First of all, it is a kind of sheet on which the location of the character and the terrain are indicated. In order for new biomes to be applied to it, you need to constantly hold the map in your hands. The advantage of the game card is that it does not interfere with movement, even if it is in the hands. Usually, the area displayed on the map has a size of 1024x1024 blocks. If you go beyond the border of this map, you will have to create a new one and place the terrain on it in the same way.
Features of the game map in "Minecraft"
Before you create a map in Minecraft, you need to know what it is for and what features it has.
1. During the creation of the map, the center will be located at the point where the character is.
2. The use of the card is possible only in the world where it was crafted. For example, if a map is made in the ordinary world, then in hell it simply will not work.
3. During movement, the map does not move. Only the point that marks the character moves.
4. If you use the map in the Nether or at the End, the playing area will have an incorrect appearance. It is unacceptable to use such a card. In the Nether world, the arrow will behave inappropriately, and the size of the designated area will be 3 times smaller than usual.
5. Each map created in "Minecraft" can be called a specific name, this will simplify the search for the desired territory in the future.
6. If there are changes in the territory for which a special map was created, it will not display this. You need to return there again, and only in this case new buildings and other items will appear on the map.
7. Images on the map have 5 zoom levels. And each has a special detail.
8. If the card has a paper rim, then the terrain that is present on it can be slightly expanded. Such a map will have the same size, but the scale will be reduced.
Crafting recipe
Creating a map in Minecraft is quite simple, and you only need a few items.
