Changes

Mobs

Minecraft:Bats

• Updated the rules under which they spawn in the world:
  • Bats can now spawn at any height, provided the area is covered and sufficiently dark.
  • They must spawn on one of the following blocks: stone, granite, diorite, andesite, tuff, or deepslate.
  • As a result, bats may now happen to spawn above the surface.

General

Minecraft:Realms

• Added a new Realm Event.

Camera

• The Template:Cd preset is no longer behind the experimental toggle.

Components

• Moved the Template:Cd component out of the Upcoming Creator Features experiment for Template:Cd Template:Cd and above.

Entity components

• Expanded Template:Cd with the following new fields:
  • Template:Cd: A scale factor applied to the explosion's damage to entities. A value of 0 prevents the explosion from dealing any damage. Negative values cause the explosion to heal entities instead:
  • Template:Cd: If true, the explosion will toggle blocks in the explosion radius.
  • Template:Cd: A scale factor applied to the knockback force caused by the explosion.
  • Template:Cd: The name of the particle effect to use. The accepted strings are Template:Cd or Template:Cd. All other inputs will use the default explosion particles.
  • Template:Cd: The name of the sound effect played when the explosion triggers.
  • Template:Cd: Defines whether the explosion should apply fall damage negation to players above the point of collision.
  • Template:Cd: If true, the explosion will affect blocks and entities underwater.

Graphical

• Starting with base game version 1.21.40, built-in Template:Cd files will no longer be loaded. That file from other packs will continue to be loaded. Water and fog settings are now in individual Template:Cd files in resource packs. When both Template:Cd and the individual Template:Cd file specify competing values, the loaded Template:Cd from creator content will have priority.
