Directional Arrow (N, S, E, W)
Can it please considered that a permanent directional compass be placed in one of the corners during game play? It would help teaching coding to my 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders and clear some of the cloudiness from coordinates. Thank you for all you do. I appreciate you.

I agree that the compass is pretty worthless, and knowing which direction one is facing is a hurdle.
Even adding a command like: /face north
Would help tremendously.
When you move from place to place, NSEW all becomes kind of relative, and it is not easy to teach, especially in a non-flat world.

Thank you for bringing this up! Also, I agree. However, to overcome this problem, I always set the "Do daylight cycle" to TRUE and try to incorporate the story of sunrise and sunset, which really is a connection to real life, and even 6 years old students are understanding N E S W concept successfully.
