New strategy for mining ancient debris

Mining ancient debris is an pretty uninteresting process currently, so let’s change it: As we know, netherite has magnetic properties (used in the loadstone). So why not also assume, that ancient debris has those properties, but much weaker. Based on this my suggestion is, to have ancient debris spawn much more rarely in the nether, but also let any compass in a 17x17x17 sphere around ancient debris point towards it (like the loadstone but local). So the new mining strategy is to strip mine in the nether with compass in hand. The overall rates of finding ancient debris should stay the same as stripming currently.

(optional) Maybe there could be a new compass, crafted with netherite instead of iron, which is able to detect ancient debris in a greater range, so that the rates of finding some, are as big, as explosion mining currently.

Have a nice day! :D

  it would be cool if there was a gamerule for the radius so server admins could modify how easy finding ancient debris was.
