* Strange pillars no longer generate below eroded badlands ({{bug|MCPE-141342}}).<br />
* Water and lava springs now correctly generate at the expected frequency.<br />

<br />
'''Actors'''<br />
* Lightning bolts do not have a shadow anymore ({{bug|MCPE-140689}}).<br />

<br />
'''Bone meal'''<br />

<br />
'''Gameplay'''<br />
* Re-entering a Caves & Cliffs world when in a danger zone at a valid negative Y position no longer teleports player to positive Y ({{bug|MCPE-141039}}).<br />
* Copper ore now drops 2–5 (increased from 2–3) units of raw copper ({{bug|MCPE-144071}}).<br />
