Notes

• Depth is displayed as "level" when standing exactly at surface level.
• The surface level has an absolute position and is consistent across the entire world.
• Template:Mobile icon The Depth Meter is obtainable and equippable but does not actually do anything.

Tips

• The Depth Meter is useful for finding biomes that are generated at specific elevation ranges, such as Floating Islands, the Underground Jungle, and the Underworld.
