[MC-96530] Maps from outside spawn area don't show location pointer

Maps generated outside of spawn area don't show user's location pointer on maps created far away from spawn area. I have a map of the area stored in a chest there, but it won't work straight away. It will work when navigated to from spawn area map after you enter their relevant coverage area, but not when stored in a chest and used after a fresh login.

This can be closed, it works as intended, if you are too far from the place the map was made, you will not see your location on the map

@unknown, the map is generated outside of spawn area and doesn't work straight away. Also, you should see a circle on the border of the map when you are outside of the map area.
@unknown, do you still (1.10.2/16w36a or later) have the issue?
