  • Improvements to performance when trying to locate structures
  • Reverted recent changes to Drowned behavior and animations from this release cycle
Minor Tweaks to Blocks, Items and Entities
  • Enchantments now apply to items being damaged from protecting an Undead mob from the sun

Commands

Added compute
  • Evaluates minecraft:number_provider in various contexts
  • In all contexts origin is set to current command context position, while this entity is set to @s
Syntax:
  • /compute <target> <provider> [<scale>|integer], where: <target> - one of: default - runs provider in minecraft:command_compute_default context, where only common arguments (position and this entity) are availableblock <pos> - runs provider in minecraft:command_compute_position context, where block state and block position are set based on block at position <pos>entity <entity selector> - runs provider in minecraft:command_compute_entity context, where target_entity is set to selector result<provider> - either an element of minecraft:number_provider registry or inline value<scale> - optional scale value, defaults to 1.0Final result will be multiplied by <scale> and rounded towards negative infinityinteger - optional marker to use integer mode Due to truncation between intermediate steps this mode is not equivalent to float mode even if scale is 1.0
Changes to data
  • Added new source to /data modify ... append|insert|merge|prepend|set called compute
  • New source will evaluate a minecraft:number_provider and then provide the result either as an integer or a float tag
  • Syntax: compute <target> <provider> [integer], where the syntax of target, provider and integer is the same as in /compute function
  • Example: /data modify storage foo bar set compute entity @n[type=minecraft:armor_stand] {type:score,target:{type:context,target:target_entity},score:baz}
Data Components

Changed minecraft:consumable
  • Added a new optional field to the teleport_randomly consume effect: directional_particles - boolean, whether to show a particle trail into the direction of the teleportation If not present, defaults to true
Updated minecraft:block_transformer
  • Contents have been moved to a separate registry
  • Component must now always refer to minecraft:block_transformer registry - existing inline components are removed
Changed minecraft:attack_animation and minecraft:interact_animation
  • The duration field is now a non-negative integer
Loot Tables

Loot Table Types
  • Currently used for /compute default command
  • It takes the following parameters: origin, the position at which the command was executedthis entity, the @s entity of the command being executed (optional)
  • Currently used for /compute block command
  • It takes the following parameters: Everything included in minecraft:command_compute_defaultblock_entity, the block entity of the block at the position given in a commandblock_state, the current state of the block at the position given in a command
  • Currently used for /compute entity command
  • It takes the following parameters: Everything included in minecraft:command_compute_defaulttarget_entity, entity selected by the selector given in a command
Loot Functions

  • Removed unused field type
  • The tag field, previously known as name, has been renamed to loot_table_id
Block Transformers
  • Added minecraft:block_transformer registry containing rules for transforming a block into another block
  • Format: list of objects with fields: block_state_provider - Block State Provider, used to provide the state for the transformed block If the Block State Provider returns no result (as by rule_based_state_provider, for example), the next rule in the list will be attemptedThe set of Block State Providers are the same as the Block State Providers used in World Generationsound - optional field, Sound Event to play on interaction, e.g. minecraft:item.axe.stripIf not present, defaults to play no Sound Eventparticle - optional field, particles to play on interaction If not present, defaults to nonenonescrapewax_onwax_offdisallowed_faces - optional field, list of Directions specifying which faces on the clicked Block that cannot be interacted with If a disallowed face is interacted with, the next rule in the list will be attemptedIf not present, defaults to an empty listValues: updownnorthsoutheastwestloot - optional Loot Table, the Loot Table to use for dropping items on a successful transformation, e.g. minecraft:till/rooted_dirtIf not present, defaults to using no Loot Tabledrop_strategy - optional field, configures from where in the Block any loot should drop If not present, defaults to from_middleValues: from_middle - from the middle of the Blockclicked_face - from the face interacted withupdate_from_neighbors - optional Boolean, if the transformed block should update based on neighboring blocks. This allows e.g. fences to connect If not present, defaults to truetransform_type - optional field, configures how nearby blocks should be affected by the transformation If not present, defaults to single_blockValues: single_block - only affects the Block interacted withcopper_chest - if input and output blocks are both copper chests of any weathering state, waxed or unwaxed, this transformation will affect both sides of a double chestconsume_on_use - optional Boolean, determines if the item should be consumed or not Only applies to stackable itemsIf not present, defaults to trueitem_damage_per_use - optional Integer, determines how much damage the item takes with each use Only applies to non-stackable itemsIf not present, defaults to 0
  • Default values in vanilla: minecraft:shovel - default value for shovelsminecraft:axe - default value for axesminecraft:hoe - default value for hoes
World Generation

Noise Settings
  • Renamed preliminary_surface_level to chunk_surface_levelThis Density Function is no longer implicitly interpolated across the entire chunk
  • The ore_veins_enabled field has been removed, and replaced by the minecraft:ore_vein Material Rule

Material Rules
  • Format: object with fields: ore_block - Block State, the ore block to placeraw_ore_block - Block State, the raw ore block to placefiller_block - Block State, the filler block to placeraw_ore_chance - float between 0 and 1, the probability for a raw_ore_block to be placed instead of an ore_blockdensity - Density Function, the probability between 0 and 1 for the ore vein to replace a block If 0 or lower, no block will be replacedrichness - Density Function, the probability between 0 and 1 for ore_block or raw_ore_block to be placed (as opposed to filler_block) If 0 or lower, all blocks will be filler_blockIf 1 or greater, no blocks will be filler_blockfiller_gap - Density Function, acts as an override to richness: if positive, filler_block will always be placed
The following fields have been introduced:
  • shift_x - optional Density Function, a domain warp to apply on x If not specified, no warping will be applied (equivalent to 0)
  • shift_y - optional Density Function, a domain warp to apply on y If not specified, no warping will be applied (equivalent to 0)
  • shift_z - optional Density Function, a domain warp to apply on z If not specified, no warping will be applied (equivalent to 0)
  • Replaced by minecraft:noise
Added fields:
  • cell_size_xz - positive int, size in blocks of the interpolation grid cells on the XZ axes
  • cell_size_y - positive int, size in blocks of the interpolation grid cells on the Y axis
