Treasure map have infinite range to locate players

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)
