&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;20w48a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is the third [[Minecraft:snapshot]] for [[Minecraft:Java Edition 1.17]], released on November 25, 2020,&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{snap|20w48a|November 25, 2020}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; which adds [[Minecraft:dripstone block]]s and [[Minecraft:pointed dripstone]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Additions ==&lt;br /&gt;
=== Blocks ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[File:Dripstone Block JE1 BE1.png|32px]] [[Minecraft:Dripstone block]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Decoration block.&lt;br /&gt;
* Does not generate anywhere currently, is only available from the Creative inventory.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[File:Pointed Dripstone Tip (down texture) JE1.png|32px]] [[Minecraft:Pointed dripstone]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Can be placed on the floor or ceiling, creating stalagmites or stalactites respectively.&lt;br /&gt;
** Can be combined to form longer stalactites and stalagmites.&lt;br /&gt;
* Stalagmites break if not attached to something below, and hurt [[Minecraft:entities]] which fall on top of them.&lt;br /&gt;
** Enemies that fall on the stalagmites deal three times more fall damage&lt;br /&gt;
* Stalactites fall if unsupported, and hurt entities they fall on.&lt;br /&gt;
** Damage is relative to height: For example, one falling from 2 blocks deals {{hp|2}} of damage, and one falling from 3 blocks deal {{hp|4}} of damage.&lt;br /&gt;
** They drip [[Minecraft:water]] or [[Minecraft:lava]] into [[Minecraft:cauldron]]s if a source block is placed above the stalactite, and gradually fill the cauldron. Water drips even without any water above the block, but does not fill the cauldron.&lt;br /&gt;
* Thrown [[Minecraft:trident]]s break pointed dripstone.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Command format ===&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;freezeDamage&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
** Whether entities take damage from freezing inside of [[Minecraft:powder snow]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== General ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Minecraft:Tag]]s&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Added new &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;freeze_immune_wearables&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; item tag.&lt;br /&gt;
** Contains leather boots, leather pants, leather tunic, and leather cap.&lt;br /&gt;
** Having an item in this tag in an armor slot prevents players from freezing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Minecraft:Particles (Java Edition)|Particles]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Added new particle types: &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;dripping_dripstone_lava&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;dripping_dripstone_water&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;falling_dripstone_lava&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;, and &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;falling_drip_water&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Changes ==&lt;br /&gt;
=== Blocks ===&lt;br /&gt;

* The texture has been changed. Has a more prominent &amp;quot;X&amp;quot; in its center.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Minecraft:Block of amethyst]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* The texture has been changed. It is now slightly less busy, striking a middle ground between the [[Minecraft:20w45a]] and [[Minecraft:20w46a]] textures.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Minecraft:Candle]]s&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Can now only be placed on solid surfaces.&lt;br /&gt;
** If the block a candle is placed on is broken, the candle stays floating. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Minecraft:Cut copper slab]]s&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Crafting all variants of cut copper into slabs now gives 6 slabs instead of 4.&lt;br /&gt;

* Players in [[Minecraft:Creative]] mode can now freeze.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Minecraft:Clock]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* The texture has been changed. The gold is now more vibrant and better matches other instances of gold in the [[Minecraft:Texture Update]] textures.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Minecraft:Compass]] and [[Minecraft:lodestone compass]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Leather [[Minecraft:armor]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Wearing any piece of leather armor now prevents freezing entirely.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Minecraft:Spyglass]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Now a 3D model instead of a flat sprite.&lt;br /&gt;
* Using the spyglass now better anchors it to the player&amp;#039;s &amp;quot;eye&amp;quot; when viewed in 3rd person.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Gameplay ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Minecraft:Recipe book]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Some recipe-unlocking advancements had criteria names changed.&lt;br /&gt;
* The chiseled nether bricks recipe is now unlocked by having a nether brick slab instead of a nether bricks block.&amp;lt;!--This was the only chiseled block changed--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== General ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Minecraft:Tag]]s&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* The &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;snow_step_sound_blocks&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; block tag was renamed to &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;inside_step_sound_block&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
