&lt;br /&gt;
== Additions ==&lt;br /&gt;
=== Gameplay ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Minecraft:Advancement]]s&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* The Power of Books&lt;br /&gt;
** Read the power signal of a [[Minecraft:Chiseled Bookshelf]] using a [[Minecraft:Comparator]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Changes ==&lt;br /&gt;
=== Blocks ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Minecraft:Smithing table]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* No longer requires a smithing template to be in the template slot before placing an item into the other slots.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Mobs ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Minecraft:Slime]]s and [[Minecraft:magma cube]]s&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Are now affected by the [[Minecraft:Jump Boost]] effect.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== General ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Minecraft:Advancement]]s&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* All fields in &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;placed_block&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;item_used_on_block&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;, and &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;allay_drop_item_on_block&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; advancement triggers have been collapsed to a single location field.&lt;br /&gt;
** New location is similar to the player field - it&amp;#039;s a list of loot conditions/predicates.&lt;br /&gt;
** All conditions in this list must match for a trigger to run.&lt;br /&gt;
* Conditions are evaluated in a new loot context called &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;advancement_location&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;. It has access to:&lt;br /&gt;
** Player as &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;this&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; entity.&lt;br /&gt;
** Position of the placed/interacted block.&lt;br /&gt;
** Block state of the placed/interacted block.&lt;br /&gt;
** Held/used item as &amp;quot;tool&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
* Migration guide:&lt;br /&gt;
** Contents of old location field should be migrated to a &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;location_check&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; condition.&lt;br /&gt;
** Contents of item field should be migrated to a &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;match_tool&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; condition.&lt;br /&gt;
** Contents of block and state fields should be migrated to a &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;block_state_property&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; condition.&lt;br /&gt;
* Advancement fields now have a new boolean field called &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;sends_telemetry_event&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Minecraft:Data pack]]s&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Version is now &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;15&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;, accounting for predicate/loot table and advancement changes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Minecraft:Creative inventory]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Minecraft:Jukebox]] has been added to the &amp;quot;Redstone Blocks&amp;quot; tab.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Minecraft:Predicate]]s&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Condition &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;alternative&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; has been renamed to &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;any_of&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
* Added new condition &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;all_of&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; that passes only when all sub-conditions pass.&lt;br /&gt;
** It has the same syntax as &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;any_of&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Minecraft:Sound]]s&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Walking on a block now always plays a step sound.&lt;br /&gt;
** It was previously not the case if the player was walking along the edge of a block with air or fluid beside it.&lt;br /&gt;
* Walking on the ocean floor produces a step sound for the block the player is walking on, but at a lower volume and pitch.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Minecraft:Telemetry]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Added new property: &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;launcher_name&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
** A new global property sent with every event.&lt;br /&gt;
** This is set based on the minecraft.launcher.brand system property.&lt;br /&gt;
** This helps developers troubleshoot game launch related bugs more effectively, as they are able to see whether the issue originated in the Minecraft launcher or a third-party program.&lt;br /&gt;
* Added new property &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;realms_map_content&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; to event &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;world_loaded&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
** When loading into a Realms Map Content world (Minigame), the &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;world_loaded&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; event receives the name of that map.&lt;br /&gt;
** This is to help developers understand how Java Realms users interact with Java Realms adventure or minimap content.&lt;br /&gt;
* Added new optional event &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;advancement_made&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
** This event is triggered when a player completes an advancement.&lt;br /&gt;
** This allows developers to see the advancement ID and the time when the advancement was completed, and helps them as a studio understand player progress and limits, which informs their game design.&lt;br /&gt;
* Added new optional event &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;game_load_times&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
** An event that is triggered when the game client is loaded, and includes the time it took for the client to load.&lt;br /&gt;
** This is so that developers can work on improving and reducing the time it takes to load the game client.&lt;br /&gt;
