&lt;br /&gt;
== Additions ==&lt;br /&gt;
=== Command format ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;General&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Running &amp;quot;Searge&amp;quot; as the command in a [[Minecraft:command block]] (without a preceding &amp;quot;/&amp;quot;, also case insensitive) now sets &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;#itzlipofutzli&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; to the previous output.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Gameplay ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Minecraft:Enchanting]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Added a sound for taking damage from thorns.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Minecraft:Weather]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Rain sounds are now more ambient/less loud and sound more realistic.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Changes ==&lt;br /&gt;
=== Blocks ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Minecraft:Lily pad]]s&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Bounding box changed again, now {{frac|3|32}} block tall and inset {{frac|1|16}} from all sides (since [[Minecraft:15w49a]], was {{frac|15|256}} block tall and only three of the four edges were inset).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Non-mob entities ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Minecraft:Boat]]s&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Now move forward and backwards using the {{control|forward}} and {{control|backwards}} key, and steer left and right using the {{control|left}} and {{control|right}} keys respectively.&lt;br /&gt;
** The boat stays in one place when pressing the {{control|left}} and {{control|right}} keys at the same time, but the paddles are moving.&lt;br /&gt;
* Now faster and stay at a consistent speed, unlike previous snapshots.&lt;br /&gt;
* Now sink when underwater, or within flowing water of any depth.&lt;br /&gt;
* Crafting recipe no longer requires wooden shovel.&lt;br /&gt;
* Riding a boat no longer subjects water-sensitive mobs to being damaged by water, and no longer protects sunlight-sensitive mobs from being damaged by sunlight.&lt;br /&gt;
* The player now is dismounted onto land if possible.&lt;br /&gt;
* Now break [[Minecraft:lily pad]]s, instead of passing right through them.&lt;br /&gt;
* Now no longer pick up mobs larger than the boat&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Minecraft:Minecart]]s&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Players no longer board minecarts when {{control|used}} while crouching.&lt;br /&gt;

* This is the last Java Edition version to have a server .exe file.&lt;br /&gt;
