so, i can't throw them. i googled around and saw a few things say it's because there are no strongholds/end portal in the seed. but...aren't ALL SEEDS supposed to have strongholds/end portals now?

Is it a pre-1.0 world? Cause ender eyes I believe bring you to the portal room. Without one, you can't find a stronghold with ender eyes.

nah, made this world in the last week. o:

I had this happen on a couple of worlds when I was checking random seeds. Some seeds do not have an end portal apparently.

They're supposed to. But, like the Nether Fortress in the Nether, the End Portal can be cut off by map generation.

I've seen portals destroyed by a cave, ravine, or mineshaft generating right through the portal room. It can also be cut off by the edge of the world if the Stronghold generates too close to it.

If you want to share the seed number, I'd be happy to try to look for one in it too.

late reply, but! seed is

forest


99% sure at least. it's an island seed.

yeah, wont be able to find portal if you've turned structures off. o:

Don't know if the problem with end portals are actually fixed. There should be 1 stronghold per map though. I have actually ran into the same situation where the eyes of ender did not function period. So my only assumption is that the end portal was not intact or not even there. However I can not say there is no stronghold since I did not even look for it. So there might still be a possibility. Who knows, until the map is completely leveled down to bedrock looking for one...lol I do not feel like doing that at the moment...><

And yes this map was created after the last bug update like yours. But since I have several other maps, I am not worried...:D
