I don't know anything about Minecraft's internals. Why are there two seeds that produce the same result?

- yreg 6y agoYour comment sparked my curiosity. Java Random[0] which is used for terraine generation uses only 48 out of the 64 bits of the seed, so there are 2^16 seeds for each possible world.[1] Apparently only the land/ocean biome generation stage utilises the full seed.
