Is there a new macro to find coordinates?

Returning from a long hiatus since mid-Legion. My old macro for coordinates used to show me my location in the chat window. Is there anybody who can show me one that currently works?

Haven’t bothered to update addons, so I’m enjoying an uncluttered UI. Never ran TomTom or anything like that either.

Thanks y’all!

/script px, py = C_Map.GetPlayerMapPosition(C_Map.GetBestMapForUnit("player"), "player"):GetXY()
/script print(format ("[ %s ] %.1f , %.1f",GetZoneText(),px*100,py*100));

That is vastly different from what I had. Will give it a shot tonight. Thank you!

If you install the addon tomtom you can just type /way 99.99, 99.99 and it will put a marker on the map and an arrow tell you which way to go

If the macro above doesn’t work for me, I may need to install TomTom. I just enjoy a clean UI. Not even running tidyplates atm

LMAO posted on wrong character. Little Lacesout is a cute little bugger though

Thank you, Zerved

Np, and tomtom is pretty non intrusive, you don’t see anything unless you type /way coords, and even then I think you can disable the arrow if you want

Tomtom does nothing to your UI, just makes the thing under the compas show your “Loc.”

It is a must have addon, since when asking about stuff people give the /loc.

It works great in Mechagon, and such with the additional addon “tom tom tours mechagon”, showing rares on the map as stars and then you click on them to get the tomtom /way thing.
