'''21w37a''' is the first non-experimental [[Minecraft:snapshot]] for [[Minecraft:Java Edition 1.18]], released on September 15, 2021,<ref>{{snap|21w37a|September 15, 2021}}</ref> which adds the contents of the previous seven experimental snapshots and brings more parity with {{BE}}.

== Additions ==
=== General ===
'''[[Minecraft:Commands]]'''
* {{cmd|jfr}}
** When enabled, begins profiling with Java FlightRecorder, as well as the following custom events:
*** '''minecraft.ServerTickTime''': Sampling event exposing average server tick times in intervals of a second
*** '''minecraft.ChunkGeneration''': Time taken to generate individual chunk stages
*** '''minecraft.PacketRead''' / '''minecraft.PacketSent''': Network traffic
*** '''minecraft.WorldLoadFinishedEvent''': Initial world loading duration
** The profiling can be stopped in-game by using {{cmd|jfr stop}}.

'''Font'''
* Added <code>illageralt</code>, the rune-like font from ''[[Minecraft:Minecraft Dungeons]]''.
** Currently only usable via commands

'''[[Minecraft:Loot table]]s'''
* Added the <code>type</code> field, which is mandatory.
** Written into <code>BlockEntityTag.id</code> to ensure that the tag can be migrated correctly between versions.

'''[[Minecraft:Options]]'''
* Can now disable [[Minecraft:lightning]] flashes, which prevents lightning from making the sky flash. Lightning bolts themselves still appear.
* The device the game outputs audio to can now be chosen in-game.
* Added "Priority updates" to video settings.
** Determines as to which chunk sections are updated synchronously in a single frame.
** Three options:
*** '''nearby''', which corresponds to how chunk sections were updated before 21w37a, '''by player''' and '''none''', which reduce stuttering when placing or removing blocks.
*** However, the latter two options may cause rare visual delays in world updates. These options also appear to be improperly capitalized.<ref>{{Bug|MC-236615}}</ref>

'''[[Minecraft:Subtitles]]'''
* Added subtitles for various [[Minecraft:bundle]] sounds.

== Changes ==
=== Blocks ===
'''[[Minecraft:Enchanting table]]'''
* Now emits a light level of 7.

'''[[Minecraft:Cave vines]], [[Minecraft:kelp]], [[Minecraft:twisting vines]] and [[Minecraft:weeping vines]]'''
* Now stop growing if [[Minecraft:shears]] are used on the tip.
** This action changes the <code>age</code> block state of the tip to 25.

'''[[Minecraft:Snow block]]'''
* Reverted change allowing plants to be placed on snow blocks.
** This reversion results in the lack of vegetation in the grove biome.

=== Items ===
'''[[Minecraft:Bundle]]'''
* Has been removed from the creative inventory once again.
* Can once again no longer be crafted.
* Only accessible through commands once again.

'''[[Minecraft:Crossbow]]'''
* Durability has been increased to 465.

'''[[Minecraft:Elytra]]'''

'''[[Minecraft:Vindicator]]s, [[Minecraft:pillager]]s, and [[Minecraft:evoker]]s'''
* Don't attack baby [[Minecraft:villager]]s anymore.

'''[[Minecraft:Goat]]s'''
* Now only spawn in [[Minecraft:snowy slopes]], [[Minecraft:stony peaks]], [[Minecraft:lofty peaks]], and [[Minecraft:snow capped peaks]] biomes.

'''[[Minecraft:Rabbits]]'''
* Can now spawn on [[Minecraft:snow block]]s.

'''Feedable mobs'''
* All feedable mobs (except sheep) named "Dinnerbone" now look at the player correctly.

'''General'''

=== World generation ===
'''[[Minecraft:Stone shore]]s'''

* Sneak, sprint, and auto-jump options have been moved to the "Controls" menu.
* Render distance now causes chunks to load in a cylinder shape around the player instead of a square.

'''[[Minecraft:Scoreboard]]s'''
* Removed length limits for scoreboards, score holders and team names.

'''[[Minecraft:Splash]]es'''
* The splash "[this splash text has been delayed until part 2]" has been changed to "[this splash text is now available]".

'''[[Minecraft:Tag]]s'''
* Renamed the <code>lava_pool_stone_replaceables</code> block tag to <code>lava_pool_stone_cannot_replace</code>.

'''Other'''
* Worlds last opened before [[Minecraft:Java Edition 1.2]] can no longer be opened.

** An error is shown when attempting to open these worlds.
