Common questions about /locate

What happened to /locatebiome?

It was merged into /locate in 1.19 as /locate biome. Before that, /locatebiome was its own command.

Does /locate always find something?

It searches a limited radius. If nothing is within range it reports failure — that does not prove the structure is absent, only that it is far away.
