Underwater ruins chests generate waterlogged and also generates with a water block on top of it, even on land.

I’m pretty sure I have watched a video which showcases a seed that has a land ruin at spawn. I’ll find that seed soon and get back to you.

Here, 727347460 is an example of a seed that has a land ruin at spawn and displays the glitch in action.

The above image is from the video.

Wait why is that so?

Thanks for providing the extra information. It seems that this is an issue in 1.6.0, but not in the 1.7 beta, as the ruins then generate underwater.

So you mean that in the 1.7 beta, that ruin from that seed changed where it generated? Like prior to 1.6 it was on land and now in 1.7 it’s underwater?

Like I know some structures can change where they generate over the updates... So am I right?

Yes, in the 1.7 beta, the ruins generate at 40 ~ 24 instead. We'll leave this open for now though (at least while 1.7 is in beta), in case there are other instances of the bug you've described.

Ok thanks for the info. By the way could you send an image of the ruin for clarity.

I’ve attached a third photo taken from one of ibxtoycat’s seed showcases and this is a different seed and land ruin. Also, take note that the chest has a water block above it and initially there was floating gravel above that water block and ibxtoycat destroyed it. The seed for that world is 1404986100 (the Mushroom Island seed found in the Minecraft seed recommendations menu) and the coordinates of the ruins is x=315 y=66 z=-6. I would like to know whether that ruin is also affected too, sorry for the inconvenience as I can’t play Minecraft right now.

And the ruin in this seed was near the ocean, but definitely isn’t touching it. So the water might or might not have been part of the ruin’s structure.
