All buried treasure maps point to same treasure

Still broken in 1.16.1 Hotfix.

We found three maps between -3000 2800 and -4000 3500, none close together, and all three maps were the same. Not only that, but no amount of movement in the indicated direction would move the marker. Eventually we found the treasure at -120 8, near our spawn area. Subsequently, we found two more maps in this spawn area, but they were identical to the ones we'd found thousands of blocks away.

This was in a realm.

Confirmed. We have found multiple maps travelled across approximately 10000 blocks. All same. Has anyone confirmed this if you barter with cartographers for treasure maps?

I am curious to know, has anyone found a treasure chest by chance that was not the one that all the maps lead to? 

@Omar Elkhalil - yes, both before the bug happened and after I was able to find buried treasure chests in other locations - only the MAPS themselves are bugged.

You may see it for yourself by checking your seed coordinates for treasure locations. And this is the only unfortunate way I've been digging for Hearts of the Sea, it's "cheaty"... just be sure to select "Bedrock" on the dropdown

@Michael Sciortino - I will check maps from cartographers ASAP, good idea TBH

I have reduced the 9 adjacent chunks of the glitched map "X" area down to bedrock hahahaah

Still the maps are generated the same, showing the land before I dug it out

Oonce I start "filling" the map, the discovered portion just shows a huge chunk of nothingness hehehehe

I have several snapshots of this saved world before and after the bug; just waiting for Devs/QA to reach out

I can confirm there are other chests.  I backed up my world, enabled cheats and did a /locate buriedtreasure and found other chests in the area.  But I have had about 15 maps, all the same location pointing, to a chest I already looted and destroyed.  I just tried to complete uncovering one of the maps and threw the rest into lava to see if that would do anything.  If that doesn't I'll throw all treasure maps into lava and see if I get a new map.  Seems like the map number never increments or something.

same issue for PS4

im having this problem also on x box one. ive traveled up to 20 000 blocks and its still the same treasure map very disappointing

Same issue with me on PS4 Bedrock. Usually I wouldn't mind except all my conduits not in use have turned to cooked rabbit since transferring over from legacy edition! The damned treasure isn't even where it's supposed to be on mine. I've dug up the whole area and found nothing. All I want is heart of the sea, or at least my 14 conduits back! 

Same issue, iOS. 

16k+ blocks, same map

Today the same. Twi card lead to the same place.. Why they don't fix it

Same issue. Very frustrating to keep finding the same map.  Started after the most recent nether update.  

Having the same issue on Xbox One. The treasure it was pointing to was over 2000 blocks away. I found the treasure and destroyed the chest but the issue still keeps occurring. This also occurred following the most recent update.

I experience the same issue on XBOX One. As the picture shows, these treasure maps are found in various locations, far apart. Treasure has been found, but still same map appears.

 To make sure of this, I recreated the same seed and experienced the same issue in the same seed. I got the same map in the new World (same seed)

Also affects: 1.16.20.52 Beta.

Having the same issue, I thought Mojang would fix it asap. I traveled all over the map and when I found any treasure map it would lead back to the same buried treasure location.

 Same issue on IPad bedrock. I've gone 4k blocks in multiple different directions and always get the same treasure map.

Same issue on PS4, now have 11 copies of the same map, all from separate ships and broken underwater structures. I don't know when the map itself generates, but I decided to stop exploring ships until this gets fixed, then I'll go back to them.

Also affects Nintendo Switch version 1.16.1. I have over 30 Treasure Maps that point to the same treasure which had been dug up and the chest destroyed long ago. 

Also on Android mobile. I have six maps that point to a treasure that never even showed up

Our 1.16.1 Realm is having the same issues. I've gone -8000, -5000 just to find the map pointing to the same buried treasure near world spawn.

+1. Bedrock v1.16.1.

I kept getting maps to the same buried treasure, despite the fact that we'd already dug up that treasure. I went 2 fully zoomed out maps away from the discovered treasure, and still got maps to the same one. I used [Chunkbase's buried treasure finder|https://www.chunkbase.com/apps/buried-treasure-finder] to confirm there were plenty of buried treasures nearby my base. I confirmed Chunkbase was accurate by digging up one of the other treasures it said existed. One of the many treasure maps I discovered should have led me to one of these other treasures.

Same issue here. Found several maps, 1000’s of blocks apart and they’re identical. Please fix soon

This is on 1.16.1 on iOS.

It is very frustrating.  I found a realm I really liked but deleted because the treasure maps were all the same.  Started several new realms only to end up with the same issue... same treasure maps... even from 5k blocks out.  

I have this issue as well, and it does the same with the woodland mansion / water monument maps. Happens in every world I have tried, and a friend has the same issue as well. It's very frustrating. 

Same here, just wondering does this glitch also cause the buried treasure maps to not spawn?  I've searched for 10 hours now, and cannot find a map that leads to the heart of the sea.  

We have a map on our realm - Xbox.  About 20 maps, 1 even 25,000 blocks away.  All point to the same location.

Same issue here, and to answer a previous poster's question, yes, in my experience this also causes the chest to not spawn at all. I've cleared out a massive area around the X down to 40ish blocks below surface, and no chest. Yet all treasure maps, no matter how far away I find them, point to the same spot. Frustrating and demoralizing.

Same!!!!! It's so annoying and disappointing. I was planning on staying in just one world in survival to develop it. I also came a long way but I need conduits to make it functional and pleasing to see as well. I had to generate the same seed in creative just to bee sure and frickin got the same treasure maps all the time even from 8000+ blocks away from spawn. I even frickin spent my time searching in survival mode before that.

Same problem on Ps4. 

It took me so much time to realise that it was a bug, i thougth the game only loaded one buried treasure so i wasted hours trying to find a new buried treasure in survival omg please fix it

When is this getting fixed this is an awful bug an ruins the game not being able to get heart of the seas sucks. we want to do.underwater building and cannot do easily without conduits

PLEASE FIX ASAP TERRIBLE BUG I WENT OVER 8k+ JUST TO FIND OUT THIS IS A BUG

@Joe - you can use this website to find the treasures. The treasures are still there, it’s just The maps that are broken.

@chrissy Nilsen     Thank you so much for that link you’re a lifesaver 

Adding vote to this ticket. It is indeed kinda annoying unfortunately, especially when knowing it late after hours of searching for treasure maps even further than 15k blocks from the first treasure found. 

@Crissy Nilsen. Thanks for the link as well, i am hopeful that this will work for the new realms 

@Chrissy Nilsen Unfortunately, chunk base only works if you know the seed of the realm you are playing on.  If it is not your realm you can't get that information.  This bug was still in affect as of 8/10/2020.

Did something happen in the last day or two?  All my treasure maps had been pointing to the same place for a long time.  Tonight, on a whim, while doing some layout work in a creative version of my world I noticed a shipwreck I hadn't explored before.  Since I was in creative I decided to look at the treasure map and for the first time in months, it pointed to a unique place. I tested it in survival and it still pointed to the new location.  I then traveled to another shipwreck that I hadn't bothered looting because I was waiting for this to be fixed and that map also pointed to a new location.  Did I get lucky or was this fixed?

It was updated. Probably they fixed this bag

In creative, in a test world, I noticed the issue was resolved. In my survival world the issue remains.

I also noticed that it works in Creative, but my survival world on the Realm is still affect as of 1.16.2.

I wonder if copying the world at least temporarily corrects the problem.  Not only do I periodically make a creative copy to try things out, I'm constantly downloading and replacing the world on the realm (I play with my kids, but when they're not on I download it to minimize unnecessary lag and up the render distance).  Maybe this is a workaround until the fix is finalized? Maybe creating a copy is the process to activate the fix?

I did a little more testing - here's what I found:

1. The maps that led to new buried treasure were found in chunks I explored for the first time in the last day or so.  I tested this further by going into additional areas that I hadn't explored before today - all maps I found were unique

2. When I opened chests in underwater ruins or sunken ships in chunks I'd already explored all treasure maps pointed toward the same location - the closest treasure to my spawn point.  I had saved a few sunken ships in those areas hoping maps in them would work once this issue was fixed. I also found an underwater ruin that I hadn't noticed before near a build I've been working on - the map inside pointed to the same location as the others

   1. The underwater ruin was at 588,y,3132 in bedrock seed -1994924415 

3. I used MCCToolchest to reset the chunk 36,195 that contained coordinate 588,y,3132 to see if the map would regenerate and if it did, would it point to the same point or a new location

   1. when I returned to the game, the treasure map regenerated, but this time it pointed to a location with a buried treasure that was close to the underwater ruin where I found the map

It seems that the issue is fixed, but if you want to use maps from areas that were explored less recently you will need to reset the chunks, otherwise, the map would have already been generated with the chunk and will point to the point near spawn.  Any maps found in newly explored areas are generating correctly.

This was all done with a survival world that is a few months old and a creative copy that I made of that world today.

I have no idea how recently this was fixed - some chests in explored chunks may work if the fix was earlier than 1.16.20. I haven't bothered with buried treasure maps recently, but on a whim, I did last night as I was exploring new areas and found a sunken ship and was pleasantly surprised it provided a unique chest I hadn't found before.

 As of yesterday, Sept 15, 2020 this issue for xbox One is NOT resolved. I have a realm, friends play it from Xbox One and from PC. Bedrock.

I would say this is a priority fix folks. 

ALL the maps we searched out yesterday pointed to the same buried treasure that I found less than a month after starting the world over a year ago. I went over 3000 blocks away and still got the same map from every chest I found. The treasure from the location given not only was found a year ago, it was removed and the island was terraformed away for a seaside Port, so the terraine does not even exist anymore, but the maps show the original terraine, island and location.

Since it is all we were doing, I gave up, loaded a backup and got rid of all the progress for the previous 24 hours of treasure hunting. We will avoid the new regions until this bug is fixed. But there are plenty of folks out there who wont have that option. 

Recently all of he new treasure maps found on our realm are working again. So fix is out there, maybe just needs to propagate to all servers. Of course maps that have already been found during the bug all still point o the same treasure. Nothing can be done about that I'm afraid.

I'm playing on my PS4 and I get that issue as well. I even Destroyed the 1st treasure chest after I loot the chest since my main target is the Heart of the Sea Pearl. When I find a New Map it tells  me to go back to 1 of the dig sites. For the hell of it I try again but No New Treasure Chest just A Giant Pit that I have made._._ugh. 

PS4 and Xbox people don't have that Console command advantage like PC people.   I thought the Glitches in Skyrim pissed me off for PS4 ....._ I hope Elder Scrolls 6 will be better since Micro Soft now owns Bethesda

The way I've worked around the treasure chest issue is to make a new world with the same seed. The treasures and everything else are in the same places. Just a matter of using xy coordinates of where the chests are buried in the new world, and going to that location in the old world.  My old world is too developed to start over again.  

I hear you Cathleen . I have worked too much to get where I am now in my current world. My home village is in a cove or harbor and the Heart of Sea Pearl helps me make conduits so I can go diving with out needing under water breathing potions. 

Plus I converted like 20 zombies villages back to villagers so I can trade 1 Emerald for any products that I buy from them! That is a Kick Ass Discount Reward after doing that hard work. By dumb luck I found a zombie spawner while mining for iron......Teeeheeeheee {8-D)
