[1.15.2] Saving player position data

[QuantumSoul]

Hi,

I need to save player coordinates when they teleport into my dimension so I can use them to send them back.

I have two questions:

1. Should I save the data in the player or the world ?

2. What data saving should I use, Capabilities, World Saved Data or another one ?

 

Thanks in advance

You should try to use Capabilities if possible. Personally, I would associate that data with the world/dimension, considering the following scenario:

• The player switches dimensions
• The dimension gets deleted, for some reason
  • If the position was stored with the player, the player might die upon switching back
  • If the position was stored with the dimension, you can treat it as if it is the first time any switching occured
