    Note that this DOES NOT work on Don’t Dig Up, or GetFixedBoi.
    Depth also doesn’t work on CelebrationMk10.
    Secret seeds being secret seeds…

    I made a large world with my friend and started tryna pinpoint the aethers locations, our guides name was Garrett (Rest in piece) and with the math I found that the aether should be at 563 east as the jungle was on the right. We had gold shrines and purple glowing idk but I dug down all the way to the underworld and found nothing. Im not sure what exactly I did wrong but I dont see any sign of it

    IT WORKS PERFECTLY LMAO TY SO MUCHHHHH!!!

    I DUG ALMOST MY ENTIRE WEST SIDE OF THE WORLD TRYING TO FIND IT AHAHA I WAS DESPERATE

    Compared to what others say ("Just dig down close to an ocean on jungle side that's all bro"), this was really helpful. Actually, I know that Aether is not always generated right under the beach. Sometimes Aether can't be generated in this "green" zone and appears in much wider "yellow" zone. My world is another proof of it. But with your calculations I found it using only compass. Thanks a lot.

    Love this video I did the math with my friend and I dug straight down and landed right into the Aeather/shimmer imma definitely keep this video for other worlds

    I'm probably very bad at math, BUT:

    Joe = 0.0000

    Large world with right jungle
    = 6552 + ((8000 – 6552) × 0.0000)

    =6552??

    It goes beyond my world border? Lol
