only locates my block, not address (lemmy.world)

As a test I'm looking up directions home from work, but despite entering my address the results only return my block. Is there a setting I have to change? I don't see any relevant settings

That probably means your house/addess isn't mapped. You can add it yourself at https://www.openstreetmap.org/. Even if you have the map data downloaded, if it's not in OSM in the first place, CoMaps won't find it. If your house is on OSM, make sure it has a house number set.
