I once lost my base so completely that I had no choice but to start over with just the items in my inventory. I did find it again months later, by then I had a much better base built, so it was just I neat little time capsule. Now I write down my coordinates.
Anyone else? If so did you ever find it again?
I play java, but I have the minihud mod on all the time. I have gotten lost so many times. My current base with the “Barbie Dream Prison” villager trading hall, and the biggest quartz antiantebellum mansion I have ever imagined. Is right near 250x250, so I can always find it.
