Minecraft:Oak Leaves: Difference between revisions

Template:Infobox block Oak leaves are biome-colored Minecraft:leaves that form the canopy of Minecraft:oak trees and Minecraft:jungle bushes, and can drop Minecraft:apples.

Obtaining

Breaking

Minecraft:Hoes are the default tools for breaking leaves, but leaves can be obtained only with Minecraft:shears or tools Minecraft:enchanted with Minecraft:Silk Touch.

Template:Breaking row

Without shears, oak leaves can drop 1 Minecraft:oak sapling, 1—2 Minecraft:sticks, and 1 Minecraft:apple. Minecraft:Fortune increases the chances.

Drop	No Fortune	Fortune I	Fortune II	Fortune III
Template:BlockLink	5% (Template:Frac)	6.25% (Template:Frac)	8.33% (Template:Frac	10% (Template:Frac)
1-2 Template:ItemLink	2% (Template:Frac)	2.22% (Template:Frac)	2.5% (Template:Frac)	3.33% (Template:Frac)
Template:ItemLink	0.5% (Template:Frac)	0.556% (Template:Frac)	0.625% (Template:Frac)	0.833% (Template:Frac)

Natural generation

Oak leaves form the canopy of any standing Minecraft:oak tree and Minecraft:jungle bush. Oak trees with oak leaves are also generated in some parts of plains Minecraft:villages, Minecraft:trial chambers, and Minecraft:abandoned camps.

Template:Block distribution

Post-generation

Template:See also Leaves generate as part of oak trees grown from Minecraft:oak saplings.

Usage

Template:Main Oak leaves that decay have the same drop chances as when broken by a player, yielding 1 Minecraft:oak sapling 5% (Template:Frac) of the time, 1-2 Minecraft:sticks 2% of the time, and 1 Minecraft:apple 0.5% (Template:Frac) of the time. It is extremely rare but possible for a single leaf to drop a sapling, two sticks and an apple at the same time. Leaves that are burned do not drop saplings or apples.

Smelting ingredient

Template:Smelting

Redstone component

Template:Exclusive The state of a leaves block—including a player-placed block—changes after 1 game tick (half a redstone tick) when the distance to the nearest Minecraft:log or Minecraft:wood block changes, up to 6 blocks of leaves away. Minecraft:Observers facing away from the leaves detect this change and transmit a redstone signal in the same game tick, making leaves useful for redstone signal transmission.

Piston interactivity

Leaves are destroyed when pushed by Minecraft:pistons. They do not stick to Minecraft:sticky pistons, Minecraft:slime blocks, or Minecraft:honey blocks.

Composting

Oak leaves have a 30% chance of increasing the compost level in a Minecraft:composter by 1. A stack of leaves yields an average of 3.05 Minecraft:bone meal.

Color

Template:Main Template:Needs render Oak leaves have unique colors based on the Minecraft:biome they are placed in.

In the inventory, oak leaves are colored Template:Color in Java Edition, or use pre-colored textures in Bedrock Edition.

Biome colors

These values are generated by the biome dyeing algorithm. Template:IN, biome colors also appear on Minecraft:maps.

Snowy leaves

Template:Exclusive

File:Snowing BE.jpg

Trees in a snowy biome during snowfall in Bedrock Edition

In any biome with a base temperature of below 0.15, oak leaves gradually fade to white once Minecraft:snowfall begins, giving them a frosted appearance for the storm's duration. During transition, the white color is blended with the regular color in eight steps. After snowfall ends, leaves gradually fade back to their normal coloration.

This does not affect leaves in biomes with a higher base temperature, even at altitudes that allow snowfall. The change is entirely invisible to the client if the graphics mode is set to Simple, though it still takes place, and leaves are the correct color phase for the time if the option is re-enabled.

Particles

Oak leaves have falling leaves Minecraft:particles which are produced underneath the leaf block, where they slowly fall to the ground. They have the same color as the leaves they're falling from, which can change with the biome or during snowfall.Template:Only

Trivia

Occasionally, leaves grow through other blocks, acting as though they are still connected to the tree. They may also completely replace blocks they try to grow into.
Some trees seem to occasionally drop apples or saplings without being destroyed due to creation of leaf blocks not supported by logs.

 == Usage ==
-Leaves from trees spontaneously decay (disappear) when they receive a [[Minecraft:Tick#Random tick|block tick]] if they are not connected to any [[Minecraft:log]] or [[Minecraft:wood]] blocks, stripped or otherwise, either directly or via other leaf blocks, with a maximum distance of 6 blocks{{only|je}} or 4 blocks.{{only|be}} {{IN|je}}, this is determined using the {{cd|prevents_nearby_leaf_decay}} [[Minecraft:block tag]], whereas {{in|BE}}, the list of blocks is hardcoded. The distance is taxicab distance, but can cross corners. Leaves placed by players never decay. [[Minecraft:Bamboo]] does not count as a log for this purpose.
+{{Main|Leaves#Usage}}
 Oak leaves that decay have the same drop chances as when broken by a player, yielding 1 [[Minecraft:oak sapling]] 5% ({{frac|1|20}}) of the time, 1-2 [[Minecraft:stick]]s 2% of the time, and 1 [[Minecraft:apple]] 0.5% ({{frac|1|200}}) of the time. It is extremely rare but possible for a single leaf to drop a sapling, two sticks and an apple at the same time. Leaves that are burned do not drop saplings or apples.
-Leaves are always [[Minecraft:transparent]] to [[Minecraft:light]] but cannot be seen through when the [[Minecraft:graphics]] mode is set to "Fast" or [[Minecraft:Settings#Video|fancy leaves]] are turned off; the transparent regions are instead dark green. Leaves that are entirely surrounded by full blocks also render opaque in ''Bedrock Edition''. They diffuse sky light, causing the shadows they cast under trees.
-Leaf blocks can be [[Minecraft:Waterlogging|waterlogged]] even though they are full blocks. Water does not spread out,{{only|je|short=1}} and waterlogged leaves follow the same rules as any other waterlogged block. When [[Minecraft:concrete powder]] is placed on any side of the waterlogged leaves it turns into [[Minecraft:concrete]], and the leaf block remains waterlogged.
-Although leaves behave as solid blocks by preventing entities from moving through them, they also behave as non-solid, in that leaves do not prevent chests from opening.
