Quadrants for fortress and bastion spawning are much larger in Bedrock than in Java, being 480×480 blocks and 432×432 blocks, respectively.
Fortress spawning chance is also lower, from 40% in Java to 33.33...% in Bedrock.
This leads to fortresses and bastions being VERY far away from spawn. A rough average distance to the nearest fortress would be 600 blocks from spawn on bedrock, in my experience, and about 300 in Java. I plan to do precise statistical calculations soon.
This makes obtaining blaze rods and reaching The End much harder. The early game in the nether is much more difficult as a direct result of this. I have stopped playing many survival worlds due to lack of access to a fortress. This harms player retention, so it needs to be brought to parity soon.
Still an issue in 1.19.63. Fortresses an bastions are both uncommon and crucial to gameplay. Bastions are going to be more important due to Netherite Upgrade Templated being added. Nether quadrant sizes and structure spawning probabilities needs to be brought to parity before the release of 1.20.
I did have a chunk border pack on. Disabling it caused the player model to be changed to a transparent head, resolving the issue. However, the camera glitchiness still remained even after having no packs on.
Sure, will add right now.
