&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;16w38a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is the sixth [[Minecraft:snapshot]] for [[Minecraft:Java Edition 1.11]], released on September 20, 2016.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;blogpost_16w38a&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{mojangsnap|16w38a|September 20, 2016|LadyAgnes}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Additions ==&lt;br /&gt;
=== Gameplay ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Minecraft:Gamerule]]s&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;doWeatherCycle&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
** Determines whether the weather changes.&lt;br /&gt;
** Defaults to true.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;maxEntityCramming&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
** Defaults to 24.&lt;br /&gt;
** If one entity tries to push more than 24 other entities, it starts to suffocate. (Note that pushing entities like minecarts also count towards this, although minecarts don&amp;#039;t suffocate, mobs or players who push one, do suffocate)&lt;br /&gt;
*** The death message is &amp;#039;&amp;#039;(playername) suffocated in a wall&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
** Setting to 0 disables the rule.&lt;br /&gt;
** Affects mobs and players only.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Changes ==&lt;br /&gt;
=== Blocks ===&lt;br /&gt;
{{Animate|Cobblestone Wall (ewU) JE1 BE1.png;Mossy Cobblestone Wall (ewU) JE1 BE1.png|32px}} &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Minecraft:Cobblestone Wall|Cobblestone Walls]] and [[Minecraft:Mossy Cobblestone Wall|Mossy Cobblestone Walls]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Are now in the &amp;quot;Decoration Blocks&amp;quot; tab in the [[Minecraft:Creative inventory]] rather than the &amp;quot;Building Blocks&amp;quot; tab.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Farmland JE3 BE3.png|width=32x32]] &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Minecraft:Farmland]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Using {{control|pick block}} gives the player farmland itself instead of [[Minecraft:dirt]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Command format ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Minecraft:Target selector]]s&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Invalid selectors (such as &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;@e[Type=creeper]&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; instead of &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;@e[type=creeper]&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;@e[asdf]&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; or &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;@e[foo=nonexistent]&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;) now generate an error instead of being silently ignored.&lt;br /&gt;
* Removed implicit target selectors (such as &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;@e[167,28,454]&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Gameplay ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Minecraft:Chat]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Messages can now be 256 characters long instead of 100.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Minecraft:Fishing]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Minecraft:Ink sac]]s are now caught in stacks of 10 with a weight of 1, rather than in stacks of 1 with a weight of 10.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== General ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Minecraft:Sound]]s&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Walking underwater no longer produces a step sound for the block the player is walking on.&amp;lt;ref group=note name=watersound&amp;gt;It is not known if this was intended or not, but it was later re-added in [[Minecraft:23w18a]].&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Items ===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Water Bottle JE1 BE1.png|width=32x32]] &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Minecraft:Potion]]s&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Potions that have missing or invalid potion-effect tags now default to the uncraftable potion, which now has no glint, and is now magenta in color.&lt;br /&gt;
** This also applies to lingering potions, splash potions and tipped arrows.&lt;br /&gt;
** Due to the water bottle without tags being changed to uncraftable potion, the brewing icon is also changed to uncraftable potion in the Creative inventory.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Elytra (item) JE1 BE1.png|width=32x32]] &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Minecraft:Elytra]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Visible when equipped on [[Minecraft:skeleton]]s, [[Minecraft:zombie]]s and [[Minecraft:armor stand]]s.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Mobs ===&lt;br /&gt;
{{Animate|Guardian JE1 BE1.png;Elder Guardian JE1 BE1.png|50px}} &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Minecraft:Guardian]]s and [[Minecraft:Elder Guardian|Elder Guardians]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Their common drop of [[Minecraft:raw fish]] will now be [[Minecraft:cooked fish]] if they die while on fire.&lt;br /&gt;
** Their rare drops from player kills, which match [[Minecraft:fishing]] loot and are sometimes fish, are unaffected.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Brown Rabbit JE1 BE1.png|width=43x43]] &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Minecraft:Rabbit]]s&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Their [[Minecraft:raw rabbit]] drop is now affected by the [[Minecraft:Looting]] enchantment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Animate|Skeleton Horse Revision 1.png;Zombie Horse Revision 1.png|43px}} &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Minecraft:Skeleton Horse|Skeleton Horses]] and [[Minecraft:Zombie Horse|Zombie Horses]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Their [[Minecraft:bone]] and [[Minecraft:rotten flesh]] drops (respectively) now yield 0–2, and are now affected by Looting.&lt;br /&gt;
