[MCPE-127685] New Nether portal spawned when going back to the OW

When I went through a Nether portal back to the OW, I ended up in a desert that I didn't recognize. I thought I was lost, but when I started exploring, I finally found my house. I think this may be what happened: I went through the original portal right outside my house, then when I came back, it opened up a new portal farther away. The original one is still in the same place. Note: I did not build any new portals in the OW, the new portal that appeared was not there before.

well whenever you type any letters instead of numbers in the seed box it automatically changes to a number but honestly i dont understand how you ended up in a desert in the middle of nowhere first nether portal in a minecraft world will sync 100% of the time but overall i dont know im no expert

Your seed did not change, 66295779 is the numeric equivalent of “Dream” in the way Minecraft interprets seed strings.

Does MCPE-115933 describe the rest of what happened? Did you have coordinates turned on in game settings, or were you just judging house location by distance from the portal?

@[Mod] GoldenHelmet - Yes, coordinates were turned on in game settings. Also, I updated my post with more information.

Thank you for updating the description. However, I am still not clear on the coordinates. Did the nether portal send you to roughly the same coordinates in the overworld that you were at in the nether (MCPE-115933), or did it convert the coordinates but still send you to a different portal than you had gone to the the nether through (MCPE-39609)?

@[Mod] GoldenHelmet - I added screenshots and more info.

Thank you for the screenshots. Based on the coordinates, I am going to resolve this report as a duplicate of MCPE-39609. On that ticket you will find and explanation of how portal linking works.

In your case, if you move the nether-side portal a few blocks in the +X and/or -Y direction and then break the newer overworld-side portal, it should send you back to the portal by your base.
