# **Locator Bar Color**

Every player's marker on the locator bar gets a color derived from their UUID. Enter a name or UUID to see the exact color the game draws — nothing random, nothing server-side.

## **Color picker**

Pick any color to see how the game would render it after brightness normalization. Useful when setting a waypoint color with a command.

Raw UUID color

#5555FF

In-game color

## **Features**

### **Vanilla-exact math**

Reproduces UUID.hashCode and the HSV brightness pass bit for bit, including Java's float rounding — not an approximation.

### **Both colors shown**

The raw bytes from the hash and the normalized color the client actually draws, each with hex and RGB.

### **Compare players**

Look up several accounts at once and see instantly whether any of them end up with the same marker color.
