playing version 1.21.4 on pc with Java survival. and still having the same problem today at 5th February 2025. I am now on a new world since start of 2025, but in december 2024 i had the same problem with different world. That world was really messed up thats why i made a new one. mobs kept attacking my house specialy creepers and i was mostly restoring then exploring . but the world i am in now is so nice everything is on a nice distant and even rare blocks are more often. like i already found deepslate emerald. or like cobbelstone diamond. because the world i am in now has full of cracks in the ground that goes very deep in a straight line. sorry for my long message, but i read that the empty maps are because the treasure is to far away. what if we kept the map and the treasure is more uplcose. could to map turn back to a treasure map or is there no way to make it appear. what i also noticed is that some suncken ships also share same treasure maps. could it be that the treasure was already found and even chest destroyed which make the treasure map turn into normal ???? just my thoughts of it, but for the main time i dont use them and just store them away untill i see apearing myself. then i would have the answer myself but maybe someone tried those tricks already.
