Did we solve your problem today?

Two eye-of-ender throws point toward the stronghold; their lines cross at its location.

The math behind it

Each throw gives a position and Minecraft facing angle. The portal sits where the two direction lines intersect.

Throws from (0,0) and (100,0) at differing angles pinpoint the stronghold.

Why two throws far apart?

A wide baseline makes the intersection far more accurate.
