Getting Started

Open the map

Press Y in a world. You can change the key under Options > Controls > Key Binds > SeedScout > Open Seed Map.

Press Y or Escape to close the map.

The seed

  • Singleplayer: the seed is read from the world automatically. Data pack world generation (for example Terralith) is picked up too, and the panel shows "datapack worldgen" when it is in use.
  • Multiplayer: type the server's seed in the Seed field and click Apply. The seed is remembered per server address, so you only enter it once.

Seeds can be numbers (-4172144997902289642) or text. Text seeds are converted the same way Minecraft converts them when you create a world.

On a server you can get the seed with /seed if you have permission, or ask the server owner.

First search

  1. In the structure grid, right-click an icon (for example a village) to make it the search target.
  2. Pick a radius.
  3. Click Search. Results are listed nearest first.
  4. Click a result to set a waypoint and close the map. Follow the arrow.
