Question on Map Coordinates
The official "The Forest" map has location coordinates. Is it possible to read those same coordinates while playing the game?

never heard of that you can use coordinates in the game

you better simply place "stick-marker" at hot spots, so you can find thouse places really easy since there will show up a HUD-icon like the log shled has

Good idea! I will try that. Thanks.

I know I’m a year late, but you can actually use coordinates ingame. It’ll require you to type ‘developermodeon’ in the home screen and press enter. Once you load up a game, hit ‘F2’ it’ll show you some game details as well as your x, y and z coordinates. Press ‘F2’ two more times to close it.

Additionally you can press F1 to bring up the developer console, in the top left. Once there you can type a number of commands into it, including the command ‘goto’. It can be used like this:

‘goto <x, y, z>'

Ensure they are separated by commas.
If you want to teleport into a cave make sure you are already in one. Same thing for the surface. This’ll allow for you to avoid some rather annoying glitches.

The developer console has many inputable commands as previously mentioned, if you would like to learn more about them, look up ‘The Forest console commands’. There are more than a few guides about this topic.

Best of luck.

Actually not sure why he said this ^

"goto x y z" (for example goto 123 123 123)
Is faster and more player-friendly :D

I haven’t personally tried it without commas recently, so you are probably correct, I can edit the original comment if you’d like.

Either way, rich2345 hasn’t been online for over a year. Still good to have an answer just in case someone else stumbles into this thread.

you can find them at the very bottom of this ^

it seems that someone changed the coordinates and added note that someone else found it, but I guess they should work anyway
