Whenever you leave the area of the first map you create, instead of the pointer icon turning into a circle to signify that you are on a different map the icon teleports to the center of the main or first map created and will stay there until you return to that map, then it will display your location correctly. This bug effects all players so it's impossible to tell where anyone is if they leave the area of the first map created which is very annoying, and since everyone's icons physically cannot leave the first map, no icons ever show up on any other map so you run into the issue of being completely confined to only the starter map which is no fun on world that's supposed to be infinite.
