Help with a height tracker

[Reaper_leviathan]

So I want it to tellyou how many meters below sea level you are. here’s my idea:

Also I don’t know how to make a height tracker in the first place lolz
BTW I’m at the very top of the map

[SuffyPro97]

this going to be extremely high memory usage, and its very complex for beginners, and if you start at the top, your y coordinate is at its maximum, calculating “meters below sea level” requires inverting the map, which makes the logic more complex than just showing height. Also because of how Gimkit handles data updates, height trackers can sometimes be choppy, or not update instantly, making a low quality, and unreliable. If the map is too deep, the tracker may not be able to accurately count down over a massive distance.

This isn’t something for devices, please change it to help.

Please try this:

How do I make a height tracker?

Player coordinates device. Add a property named, “Y”. Connect the Y in the coordinates to the property “Y” Make the property number and establish the default value as “0”. Add a trigger. Activate the trigger with anything you want. (Typically with a lifecycle listening for “Game Start”) Then, go to he blocks of the trigger. And add this code: [Screenshot 2025-02-11 5.21.09 PM] Then, go to a game overlay(optional) make it a text, and set its’ block code to this: [Screenshot 2025-02-11 …

Then just make another one and make it negative and change the y level to start wherever you need. Ta-da! Your done, please mark a solution

Calling out AI users part 2

@SuffyPro97 don’t use AI, this topic proves it if anything:

You go from perfection now to misspelling y’all and forgetting capitals.

This topic got you completely wrecked, please stop trying to cover your tracks.

Stop using AI on the forums, it’s pointless, rude and will get you banned. I’ll be forwarding this to jeffo too.

Johnny johhny I’m not using ai, but your very funny
Edit: if you want to make a basic one, use a player coordinate device, connected to a property (set to number). Then use a game overlay to display that property.

Use a coordinate device (like what everyone else said), and make it update a property for the y-coordinate (let’s call it PlayerY), and make it broadcast on channel CoordinateUpdate every time the coordinates change
Then use an overlay showing text, and make a block “When receiving on channel CoordinateUpdate”
Set the block code to this:

Set [variable x] to value [500] - [Get property: PlayerY]
If [x < 0] {
    Set text: "0"
}
Else {
    Set text: [x]
}

Change the 500 to whatever the water’s surface y value is
