Talk:Buried Treasure

(untitled)
ummm... i went to the exact coordinates and dug down to bedrock, nothing there... what? 66.27.208.236 00:50, 15 June 2019 (UTC)
 * The chest is sometimes off a bit. Try digging around the place and it should be there under the sand. – Nixinova Nixinova sig1.png Nixinova sig2.png 01:35, 15 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Three treasure maps in a row now, dug out 6 blocks in every direction, and on the first two dug all the way down to bedrock. Nothing :( --Realweregamer (talk) 03:41, 20 November 2020 (UTC)
 * I suggest you switch to creative mode and use the "/locate buried treasure" command to check the coordinates. I don't know of you're playing Java or Bedrock, but in Bedrock /locate has always been spot-on for buried treasure (it seems to have problems with other things like ruined portals). If you see a discrepancy between the map and what /locate says, report it on the bug tracker. Amatulic (talk) 11:35, 20 November 2020 (UTC)

(water logged buried treasure)
just dug up one underwater, F3 says is not waterlogged.

4 stacks of diamonds
I get 4 stacks of diamonds in a buried treasure (4 single diamonds), when in the table is a maximum of 3 stacks of diamonds to get. Seed in what I get 4 stacks of diamonds: 3895961843548414060 (generated in 1.16.3). Link to the screenshot: Ksawi999 (talk) 19:48, 31 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks for that picture. I changed the table heading to 1-4. It took me a while to figure out that I had to edit the page Module:LootChest to fix that number. Amatulic (talk) 02:13, 21 November 2020 (UTC)

Buried treasure not at 9x9 co-ordinates
I tried going to X and Z coordinates 9,9 and there is no treasure there. I verified this using chunkbase(seed): -1915135521890135152 Legolas Elf (talk) 13:52, 5 June 2021 (UTC)
 * It's at coordinate 9,9 on that chunk, not world coordinates. I verified that with your seed.
 * For example, with your seed there's buried treasure at coordinate 105,953. To get the x,y coordinate on the chunk, divide each number by 16 and get the remainder. 105/16 = 6 with remainder 9. And 953/16 = 59 with remainder 9. Therefore the treasure is at coordinate 9,9 on that chunk.
 * For negative numbers coordinates, you need to subtract the remainder from 16 to get the chunk coordinate. So for the buried treasure at -1287,-247, you get a remainder of -7 for both coordinates, and 16-7=9, so the chunk coordinates are still 9,9 on that chunk.
 * Therefore, if you know the chunk boundaries for a buried treasure, the treasure is always 9 east and 9 south from the northwest corner of the chunk. Amatulic (talk) 14:14, 5 June 2021 (UTC)
 * I also verified that this is Java Edition only. In Bedrock Edition, the chunk coordinates for buried treasure are always 8,8. Amatulic (talk) 14:20, 5 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Ah thanks for the clarification! I have edited the main page to bold "chunk". Hope that's fine.Legolas Elf (talk) 17:57, 5 June 2021 (UTC)
 * You're welcome, and I apologize for my accidental revert just now. I tried to click "thank" on the diff of your edit to thank you, and my aim missed and my finger clicked on "rollback" instead, which reverted you. I just reverted myself. Amatulic (talk) 18:06, 5 June 2021 (UTC)

More than one treasure per save?
On the Xbox 360, every single buried treasure map I find is 4 or 5 and they turn into treasure map 5 the moment they enter my inventory. Is it not possible to find more than one treasure in a 360 save? Korra II Royal (talk) 22:55, 9 May 2022 (UTC)
 * I have no idea what you mean by "4 or 5" - that doesn't correspond to any information in this article, as far as I can tell. If there is information missing from this article, please suggest how to include it.
 * Buried treasure exists all over the place. You can verify this by entering your seed into chunkbase and viewing the map. Amatulic (talk) 00:42, 10 May 2022 (UTC)
