Treasure map have infinite range to locate players

XMLWordPrintable

    • Survival
    • Unconfirmed
    • Android

      Steps to Reproduce:

      Be in a world with another player

      1. Find a buried treasure map

      2. Teleport your friend more than 20k blocks

      3. Check treasure map for player location

       

      Observed Results:

      Player location (exact direction) is on the map

       

      Expected Results:

      Player location is not shown on the map, because the distance is more than a locator map can handle. And only the map user marker is shown.

       

      Extra info:

      Treasure map can locate players with infinite range, I do not know if this will work on normal multiplayer games. Fix this as soon as possible, many players are using this exploit to find other players.

       

      I found this exploit on treasure map, maybe this is true for structure maps too.

       

      I am using 1.21.31.04 bedrock dedicated server to run my world on a hosting service, and players are using unmodified 1.21.31.04 minecraft client(i found this exploit from Android phone)
