'''Beta 1.17.40.21''' is the second beta version for [[Minecraft:Bedrock Edition 1.17.40]], released on September 22, 2021,<ref>{{cite|url=https://feedback.minecraft.net/hc/en-us/articles/4409802760717|title=Minecraft Beta - 1.17.40.21 (Xbox One/Windows 10/Android)|website=feedback.minecraft.net|date=September 22, 2021}}</ref><ref>{{Mcnet|minecraft-beta-1-17-40-21|Minecraft Beta 1.17.40.21|22 September 2021|Jay Wells}}</ref> which allows old worlds to upgrade to the new world generation behind experimental toggle, and fixes bugs.

== Changes ==
=== General ===
'''[[Minecraft:RenderDragon]]'''
* As part of continued testing, removed RenderDragon engine support on Android devices (ARMv7) ({{bug|MCPE-141319}})

== Experimental ==
These additions and changes are accessible by enabling the "[[Minecraft:Caves & Cliffs]]" and "Enable GameTest Framework" experimental toggle.

=== World generation ===
'''[[Minecraft:Dripstone Caves]]'''
* In world generation, grass is replaced with stone (if generated near grass).

'''[[Minecraft:Mountains]]'''
* Mountain tops are now more jagged and pointy.
* Mountain areas and peak biomes now are slightly larger on average.

'''[[Minecraft:Stone shore]]s'''
* Sometimes generate layers (strips) of [[Minecraft:gravel]].

'''[[Minecraft:Stony peaks]]'''
* Sometimes generate layers (strips) of [[Minecraft:calcite]].

'''General '''
* Added new world/cave generation when upgrading saved chunks below Y=0 using the Caves and Cliffs experimental toggle.
** Chunks previously upgraded with Bedrock underneath will not see this change.
* Upgrades older flat worlds to the new extended heights available with the Caves & Cliffs experimental toggle
* New flat worlds using the Caves & Cliffs experimental toggle will generate starting at "y=-64"

=== Technical ===
'''GameTest Framework'''
* Updated the GameTest Framework interface and added a new SimulatedPlayer capability:
** Added 'SimulatedPlayer'class to GameTest. This class enables GameTest to simulate a variety of player behaviors such as movement, using items, and interacting with blocks and entities. See the GameTest API reference documentation for more details.
*** Added function spawnSimulatedPlayer(blockLocation: BlockLocation, name: string): SimulatedPlayer
*** Added function removeSimulatedPlayer(simulatedPlayer: SimulatedPlayer): void
** mojang-gametest.Test type
*** Changed signature of function assertEntityInstancePresent(entity: Entity, blockLocation: BlockLocation, isPresent: boolean = true)
** mojang-minecraft components
*** Component inventory now works with Player inventories

== Fixes ==
'''Experimental'''
* Fixed an issue in beta builds where flying above the world limit (255 for non-Caves & Cliffs experimental, 319 for Caves & Cliffs experimental) would be prohibited ({{bug|MCPE-141360}}).
* Copper Ore now generates up to y=96 instead of y=64 ({{bug|MCPE-125233}}).

'''General'''
* Holding Top Snow in hand while hovering over Grass Blocks no longer causes incorrect behavior ({{bug|MCPE-140659}}, {{bug|MCPE-140660}}).
* Bee Nests now generate correctly in the world ({{bug|MCPE-141324}}, {{bug|MCPE-132195}}).
* Non-fireproof mobs now avoid pathing through fire ({{bug|MCPE-23835}}).

'''Gameplay'''
* Vanilla Parity: Players are now able to activate Elytra gliding while moving upward ({{bug|MCPE-59580}}).
* Using Dye on Signs that contain formatted color text will overwrite the formatted color text.

'''World Generation'''
* Fossils are now much less likely to generate in, and destroy structures.
* Dungeons are no longer misplaced or missing outside of the Caves & Cliffs experimental toggle ({{bug|MCPE-121708}}).

'''Mobs'''
* Iron Golem now spawns only on solid blocks ({{bug|MCPE-140145}}).
* Wielded weapons now render properly on Pillagers and Vindicators ({{bug|MCPE-141321}}).

'''User Interface'''
* Riding an animal now displays the correct button prompt when playing with non-touch controls.

'''Character Creator'''
* Back appearance pieces will no longer cover the left and right arrows in the profile screen.
* Fixed featured items in the profile screen not opening the featured catalog in the Dressing Room.
* Fixed default clothes changing color if another item’s color was edited previously.
* Sidebar options can now be selected in expanded view after navigating back from previously selected sidebar option while using controller.
* Sidebar no longer opens upon expanding any of the classic skin packs in the Dressing Room.
* Improved the navigation flow for Character Creator so that it always switches to the selected Character Creator profile ({{bug|MCPE-139022}}).
* Skins that are equipped from Marketplace while in-game now apply to character.

'''Technical'''
* Fixed a bug that caused animations to be restarted when changing render controllers.
* Fixed text on Signs losing their formatting when new lines or word-wrapping are encountered. Formatting will now persist until the reset code or an overriding code is found. This is not retroactive and previously created Signs will not be changed.
* Molang expressions that contain capital letters are properly evaluated now.
* 'query.get_equipped_item_name' will now recognize Sea Lantern ({{bug|MCPE-67893}}).
* Add new compile errors for expressions like 1 + (9 10), which were previously ignored (This is a Versioned Change as of engine version 1.17.40).</onlyinclude>
