The same explorer maps are being sold from different cartographers after exploration.

I can confirm. Also interesting is putting the map you explored on the wall pulls the icon off copies of it.

Are you getting the maps from cartographers in the same village? Or are you finding cartographers in different villages?

I got the same map of the already explored mansion from two cartographers in two different villages.

In survival mode, I received maps from 5 different cartographers in three different villages and received the same maps. In creative mode, every cartographer I spawned sold the same maps.

I went to a woodland mansion and explored it and the entire explorer map and then went to a new cartographer and started trading and got the same map even though the mansion wasn’t undiscovered anymore. I then went to a village 30,000 blocks from spawn and 37,000 blocks away from the last mansion and tried to trade with a different cartographer and still the same map. Then thinking I could cheat and tired of running around I used the locate mansion command and it gave the coordinates of the same mansion. Then thinking I maybe didn’t “discover” the mansion I went back to the mansion and went through it again and even went so far as to use TNT to explode the whole thing and then went to trade again and again the same map. When I get these same maps I’m even exploring them again to make sure that that doesn’t interfere. Now I’m thinking it’s just a bug that I can only get one woodland explorer map and only one spawned in or something since the locate command is only giving one as well even 30,000 blocks from spawn in the opposite direction.

I can confirm that this issue is happening on my seed as well. @Mega_Spud - do you have an expected time for this to be resolved?

Wish I saw this before I wasted over 100 emeralds in my survival realm...

Amen, we've blown through many emeralds and traveled far and wide thinking it was a distance thing.

To be clear, we see this on the realm servicing both Windows 10 & Xbox versions of minecraft

Update. I downloaded my realm to my laptop and changed it to Creative. It turns out that I can get a villager to give me a map to a new mansion if the undiscovered mansion is geographically closer to the villager than the discovered mansion. So it seems like the mansions are generating, it's just that the code that generates an undiscovered woodland explorer map needs to be updated to show the closest undiscovered mansion (not just the closest).

This was reported as fixed in latest version, but it is not.

"Cartographer Villagers will now give maps for new Ocean Monuments and Woodland Mansions that are not in known generated chunks."

I went to a cartographer that I had previously purchased from and he gave me the same woodland mansion map. I then went to a different cartographer (B) and his map was unfilled in, but it looked identical to the original map purchased cartographer A. The maps did not stack in my inventory but when the woodland mansion (A) was visited using map (B), it was confirmed as being the same woodland mansion and not a new location previously unknown.

Could someone confirm if this is working as intended? (Android Nougat running 1.2.10 Bedrock on Single Multiplayer World).

It appears that the issue still remains.

I have tested this issue by the following:

Cartographer 1. He was breaded in 1.2.9 I purchased the woodland map. Which he then gave me the same map as before. I then went to the structure to confirm it was the same place, which indeed it was.

The following day the update to 1.2.10 come out. I went to the same Cartographer 1 and bout a map. Which it was the same map and to confirm I went to the structure and made sure I discovered the entire map as well.

Cartographer 1 was then disposed of in which I then breaded a new Cartographer. Cartographer 2 who was created on 1.2.10

Cartographer 2 went through the same process as above. Max level, got the map, went the to structure, reveled the entire map which in the end showed the same structure.

Note: maps from different Cartographer didn't stack. I also had a friend try the method above which all lead to the same issue.

Same problem over here. I tried trading with different cartographers, but they all gave me the same map. I hope they'll fix it soon because i'd like to explore new ones.

Same problem here. Just went to 5 different cartographers thousands of blocks apart and still the same woodlands mansion maps. So frustrating blowing resources.

This issue is still occurring, i just picked up a woodland mansion map this morning and it points to a mansion that has already been discovered and looted!

Same issue here. Fully explored a Woodland Mansion Map that was purchased from a cartographer villager. We bought a woodland explorer map from a different villager than the first. It was the same map as the one we had already discovered! Located an undiscovered village, bought another woodland explorer map and it was again the same map that had previously been discovered and explored. Created a new village and bred a new cartographer. The map brought from him was the same as every other map that was bought and already discovered and explored.

I also encountered these problems so when I went on and tested some things in my singleplayer world, I found out that if I got a carthographer in my town thousands of blocks away he would give me the same map as the last one which I explored. BUT if I made a carthographer at the exact same spot as this old mansion, I got a NEW mansion thousands of blocks away.

The issue seems to be directly related to the proximity of a cartographer (new or old) to a mansion. It's almost like there is a check in the code for the closest mansion but the check for whether it has been explored isn't firing or isn't in place.

I experienced this issue today in Bedrock Beta 1.2.14.3 on Windows 10.

I entered again my first and only woodland mansion (that I first visited in December, it was version 1.2.8 at that time) because I didn't get the Treasure Hunter achievement at that time (it was probably another bug).

This time I got the achievement which means the game noticed that I entered the mansion. But later when I purchased a brand new map from another cartographer, I got an unexplored version of the same map i.e. leading to the same mansion. So basically I cannot get maps to new mansions, I am stuck with only one (per world).

I am experiencing this same issue with buried treasure maps. I have four copies of the same map, acquired from ruins and from sunken ships. This is running on a dedicated server.

If this is happening with treasure maps, could you please create a separate ticket for that with steps to reproduce the issue?

I have been playing on a realm with the seed mamaMOOSE, and I have noticed the same issue, only I have found some additional info.

Village A is roughly at location 16, 64, 94
Village B is roughly at location -4808, 65, -1672

Mansion A is at location 13423, 74, -9680
Mansion B is at location -21249, 67, -624

Village A cartographers only sell woodland explorer maps for mansion A. Village B only sells maps for mansion B. All villages in between Villages A and B sell maps for mansion A.

Using pythagorean theorom, distances between villages and mansions are as follows:

Village A to Mansion A 16,591m
Village A to Mansion B 21,277m

Village B to Mansion A 19,912m
Village B to Mansion B 16,474m

It appears that villages are only giving woodland explorer maps to the nearest mansion. I do not know if that is an intended feature or a bug, but I can find no reference to a change made in any of the patch notes. It is my understanding that cartographers were originally supposed to give a map to the nearest unexplored mansion.

I am also having this issue on IOS iPad Pro survival mode spent ages building rail roads to new villages to obtain new maps but all a waste of time always get the same ocean monument.

Please fix this asap it's pretty much my only reason for keep playing minecraft done most other stuff so just want to explore stuff hopefully nether update will be out soon which will give me something else to do instead.

I play survival infinitive world, started the world when bedrock came to Xbox one, so around June 2018, and I have only ever had one woodland mansion 40,000 blocks away, I’ve tried so many times with different cartographers levelling them up but I always get the same map to the one mansion I have explored,, disappointing especially on an infinitive world.

I know there is a workaround which I used over a 2 years ago but it was before the villagers where changed in bedrock. This involved having two zombie villagers changed to villagers inside the woodland mansion and breeding them until you get the cartographer then max leveling him until you get maps. After that they would give you a new map. But make sure he doesn’t leave the mansion.

But like I said I haven’t tired it since the new update so not sure if it still works. Worth a shot tho.

Thomas after your comment I went to my mansion and the cartographer did give me a different map, wow after all this time, thanx for that,,, but it got me thinking so I created a creative world and done some tests,,, I found 12 mansions in that world. The cartographer will only give you the map to the mansion nearest to him,,, I went back into my survival world and travelled 40,000 block in the opposite direction to my located mansions, so I was about 80,000 from the known mansions and when I traded with the cartographer I got a third location,,, my advice to people would be to travel a good 40 to 50 thousand blocks from your spawn,, trade for a map and then trade within that mansion to see if there is any more locations, I found in the creative world that when you get a map you already have, that’s the time to travel again in another direction,,, but thank you again for your comment as that got me to look more into it.

We have just explored a huge ocean in our realm and every treasure map we came across is of the same island. So we tried a different ocean 10 maps away and found a pirate ship with a treasure map and yup STILL the same treasure map, and yes it was one of the first ones that we found and plundered.
