Every time I use an Eye of Ender, it doesn't seem to lead to the Stronghold's Portal Room. Instead, it leads to a spiral staircase room in the Stronghold. Even if the End Portal is just 5 blocks away, it leads AWAY from the portal.
Steps to reproduce:
Create a world with the seed
MC-70143Throw ender eyes, those lead to 640 / 36 / 688
Leave the world
Reload the world
Throw ender eyes, those lead now to 645 / 40 / 645

Is this still a concern in the current Minecraft version? If so, please update the affected versions in order to best aid Mojang ensuring bugs are still valid in the latest releases/pre-releases. If this has been done, we can reopen the issue.
Keep in mind that the "Resolved"-Status on this ticket just means "Answered", and that we are waiting for further information on whether this issue still exists or not. We will reopen it as soon as the requested information has been delivered.
seed: MC-70143 (DAMN this is actually a very nice seed for me for survival because I love villages, convenient strongholds, & jungles & their temples! If only the devs would fix MC-2310 so that my villagers wouldn't all be killed at night.)
End Portal: X:640, Y:36, Z:688
Spiral Staircase: X:645, Y:40, Z:645
Use /tp to make your life easier.
I think I see why you can't reproduce this. As it says on the Eye of Ender page on the Minecraft Wiki:
In the PC edition, the eye will lead to the portal room when the stronghold is first generated in the world. If the world is exited and reloaded, the eye will instead lead to the spiral staircase that was the first room generated.
You probably didn't think of that, did you?

... still no seed ...
Um @Kumasasa I put a seed in my comment above yours XD. If you mean a seed from the reporter, he might not be back at this ticket ever again, trust me I've seen this before people report things then never visit the ticket again, so you're much better off using my seed that I put in my comment, but I have a feeling that this bug isn't seed specific and can work with any seed. Or, if you're confused & don't see a seed up there the seed is MC-70143 but the bug tracker turns that into a link to this issue DX.

Wait, the seed is literally
MC-70143 ?
Sorry, misread your comment.
Lol no problem XD. And as I said it's a nice seed too 😃

Can confirm in 1.8.8 for a new world created with seed MC-70143.
Glad to see this reopened and confirmed. Just wanted to add that it's still occuring in 15w34b; however behavior seems slightly different perhaps...
I created a world with seed 3076852608952083953, saved and quit, restarted then used an eye for the FIRST time ever in the world and it led me to the portal room. Then saved/quit/restarted again and it pointed to a spiral staircase.

Fixed for 16w35a (I think), but it can occur again if MC-100170 is fixed
Please provide seed and coordinates.
