Marker

In Minecraft, a "Marker" refers to a special entity primarily used in datapacks and map-making. Unlike other entities in the game, Markers are designed with minimal behavior; they do not move, take damage, make sounds, or receive status effects. They are essentially server-side markers that do not render, thus players cannot directly see them in the game. Markers are created using the `/summon` command or custom spawn eggs, used to mark specific locations, areas, or trigger specific events in datapacks. They are a common tool for mapmakers and datapack developers. Players can use hitbox display in debug mode to help with marker placement. Minecraft is a sandbox video game developed and published by Swedish game developer Mojang Studios. Players explore a procedurally generated 3D world, collecting resources, constructing structures, and interacting with creatures. The game offers multiple modes, including survival and creative, and allows players to expand the game through custom maps, mods, and plugins. The Japanese wiki entry for "Minecraft" (マインクラフト) mentions that the game is a sandbox game developed by Notch (Markus Persson) in 2009, where players can freely create buildings, explore, fight, and grow crops. Multiplayer mode allows for both cooperative building and player-versus-player combat.
