SP Coordinate Standard

The SP Coordinate Standard (sometimes abbreviated to SPCS) is a method of identifying any objects position in the known universe. There are different subsets to this standard pertaining to the dimensions the observer is in.

Earth space

From the core of the sun which Earth orbits, there is a 3 vector system that can be used as compass pointers. The forward vector from the sun is facing where the Earth was on January 1st, 2000. The up vector from the sun is facing the up vector of the north pole on the same date. The right vector is perpendicular to the forward vector, facing a similar direction as the Americas towards space. Coordinates are then measured in 3D vector space, assuming that the core of the sun is the starting vector (0, 0, 0). These vectors are measured in any unit, but the unit must be specified (e.g. The Earth in January is ≈ (147.1 km, 0 km, 0 km)).

SP space

Similar to Earth space, but with a few exceptions. From the center of Hex City, the forward vector is towards the north wall, the right vector is towards the east wall, and the up vector is towards the roof of the Hex Tower. However it is important to note that some entrances in SP contain smaller pockets of infinite space within, such as Infinite Forest. For these places, the notation changes to a subset vector S (e.g. (S1 m, S2 m,S 3 m)) with the origin in the center of the infinite location, but with the same forward up and right vectors.
