A Blockhead's '''location''' can be determined using several methods.
==Above Ground Navigation==
==Above Ground Navigation==
A player can determine their navigational location by the azimuthal or attitudinal direction of the sun. The player is always at the "top" of the world. The more vertical the sun, the closer the player is to an [[:Category:Location|Equator end]]. The more horizontal the sun, the closer the player is to a [[:Category:Location|Pole]].
A player can determine their location by the direction of the [[Astronomy|sun's, moon's, or stars']] movement over the course of the day. For the purposes of these charts, the player is always at the "top" of the world. The more vertical the sun, the closer the player is to an [[:Category:Location|equator]]. The more horizontal the sun, the closer the player is to a [[:Category:Location|pole]].
 
Picture your world as a circle, with the [[Astronomy#Sky|sky]], ground, and [[Center Of The World|core]]:

:Picture your world as a flat circle, with Sky, Ground, and Core:
Now add the [[:Category:Location|poles]]:

:Now simplified, add the poles:

==Underground Navigation==
==Underground Navigation==
 
Provided the area above where a [[Blockhead]] is underground has been explored, it is possible to pan the camera to the surface and figure out the Blockhead's location there. The altitude can be figured out by zooming out to map mode and comparing the Blockhead's location to the surface level or the water level.
