&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;13w01a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is the first [[Minecraft:snapshot]] for [[Minecraft:Java Edition 1.5]], released on January 3, 2013.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;https://web.archive.org/web/20130106004940/http://www.mojang.com/2013/01/minecraft-snapshot-13w01a/&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; It mainly added an assortment of new [[Minecraft:redstone components]]. This is the first snapshot released in 2013.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Additions ==&lt;br /&gt;
=== Blocks ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[File:Nether Quartz Ore JE1 BE1.png|32px]] [[Minecraft:Nether quartz ore]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* New ore exclusive to the Nether.&lt;br /&gt;
* Drops 1 [[Minecraft:Nether quartz]] item when mined.&lt;br /&gt;
* Generates around [[Minecraft:netherrack]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[File:Block of Redstone JE1 BE1.png|32px]] [[Minecraft:Block of redstone]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Stores redstone dust similar to [[Minecraft:blocks of diamond]], etc.&lt;br /&gt;
* Emits constant redstone power.&lt;br /&gt;
* Works as a pushable redstone power source.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[File:Daylight Detector.png|32px]] [[Minecraft:Daylight sensor]]s&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Output power while receiving sunlight.&lt;br /&gt;
* The level varies depending on the time (more sunlight = more redstone power), and it does not function at night.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[File:Hopper (D) JE1.png|32px]] [[Minecraft:Hopper]]s&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Places and takes out items in hoppers, [[Minecraft:chest]]s, [[Minecraft:furnace]]s, [[Minecraft:minecarts with chests]], [[Minecraft:dispenser]]s, and [[Minecraft:brewing stand]]s.&lt;br /&gt;
* Allows for the automation of many processes.&lt;br /&gt;
* Still a work in progress (as indicated by the inventory icon [[File:Hopper (item) JE1.png|32px]]).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[File:Redstone Comparator (S) JE1.png|32px]] [[Minecraft:Redstone comparator]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Has 3 inputs and 1 output. Input from the back is considered signal A, and whichever side gives the stronger signal is considered signal B.&lt;br /&gt;
* Has 2 modes: comparison and subtraction.&lt;br /&gt;
* In comparison mode, if A≥B, the output is A, otherwise output stays off.&lt;br /&gt;
* In subtraction mode, if A≥B, the output is A-B, otherwise output stays off.&lt;br /&gt;
* Replacement for the &amp;quot;capacitor&amp;quot; idea.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[File:Trapped Chest.gif|32px]] [[Minecraft:Trapped chest]]s&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Gives out a signal depending on the amount of players looking inside. 1 player = 1 strength signal, 2 players = 2, etc.&lt;br /&gt;
* Crafted with a [[Minecraft:chest]] and a [[Minecraft:tripwire hook]].&lt;br /&gt;
* Large trapped chests can be staggered with large chests to allow more compact storage.&lt;br /&gt;
* Texture is slightly different than a normal chest, with a red stain around the latch.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[File:Light Weighted Pressure Plate JE1 BE1.png|32px]] [[File:Heavy Weighted Pressure Plate JE1 BE1.png|32px]] [[Minecraft:Weighted pressure plate]]s&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Detects item stacks.&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Minecraft:Light Weighted Pressure Plate|Gold]] version reaches full strength at 60 items.&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Minecraft:Heavy Weighted Pressure Plate|Iron]] version reaches full strength at 600 items.&lt;br /&gt;
* Linear, so 10 strength signal means twice as many items as a 5 strength signal.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Items ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[File:Nether Brick JE1 BE1.png|32px]] [[Minecraft:Nether brick]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Used for crafting [[Minecraft:Nether bricks]].&lt;br /&gt;
* Obtained by smelting [[Minecraft:netherrack]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[File:Nether Quartz JE1 BE1.png|32px]] [[Minecraft:Nether quartz]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Item dropped from [[Minecraft:Nether quartz ore]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Changes ==&lt;br /&gt;
=== Blocks ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[File:Locked chest JE4.png|32px]] [[Minecraft:Locked chest]]s&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Texture for the block was changed from [[File:Locked chest JE3.png|32px]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Minecraft:Piston]]s&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Are more stable from previous versions.&lt;br /&gt;
** Sticky pistons are less sticky.{{info needed}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Minecraft:Redstone circuit]]s&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Are now more consistent.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Items ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;General&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Now shows the item name in-game.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Gameplay ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Minecraft:Death messages]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Now show the weapon someone was killed with.{{info needed}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Inventory management&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Double-click items to fill the stack up as much as possible.&lt;br /&gt;
* Drag item stacks around to divide them up over the dragged-over slots.&lt;br /&gt;
* Drag item stacks around with the right mouse button to place one of that stack in each dragged-over slot, if that slot is not occupied already.&lt;br /&gt;
* Shift double-click an item stack to move all other item stacks of that kind to that part of the inventory.&lt;br /&gt;
* Press {{key|Q}} while the mouse is over an item in the inventory or a container to drop it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Bugs ==&lt;br /&gt;
* [MC-5711] Redstone torches attached to the side of a block do not pop off if the block supporting them is destroyed.&lt;br /&gt;
* [MC-5721] Dragging to spread an item out in the Creative inventory, then clicking on the inventory tab, and placing the 0 stack item down, the game crashes.&lt;br /&gt;
* [MC-5728] Infinite loop caused by subtraction mode comparators causes the world to be unplayable.&lt;br /&gt;
* Mineral duplication: players can exponentially dupe minerals by putting then in a crafting table with a block of their material, then double clicking on a mineral in the crafting table, works on the same principle as the method below.&lt;br /&gt;
* Crafted item duplication: any stackable crafted item can be duplicated by setting up its recipe in a crafting table, then double clicking an existing version of this item in the inventory. Requires at least one of that item to be present in the inventory. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
