- I would like to break up this long sentence into more digestible pieces.
Let us consider a simple sentence that is easy to understand, and then slowly add the details.
切り替えなさい Switch to it
マップに切り替えなさい Switch to the map (に indicates target) (Z/E)でマップに切り替えなさい Switch to the map with E/Z (で indicates the means)
アイテムモードにして、ZやEでマップに切り替えなさい (go into item mode, and then) Switch to the map with E/Z (にする, here literally "cause to be in item mode", te-form is used to loosely connect two sentences)
スターとでアイテムモードにして、ZやEでマップに切り替えなさい Go into item mode with Start, and then switch to the map with E/Z (で indicates the means)
たしかめるなら: スタートでアイテムモードにして、ΖやΕでマップに切り替えなさい。(If you want to confirm, then): Go into item mode with Start, and then switch to the map with E/Z (なら makes the first sentence a condition for the second, but other than that, these are two independent sentences, do not get intimidated just because the sentence seems long now)
位置をたしかめるなら: スタートでアイテムモードにして、ΖやΕでマップに切り替えなさい。(If you want to confirm your position, then): Go into item mode with Start, and then switch to the map with E/Z
And adding the last piece finally yields the translation above.
