Additions

General

Minecraft:Loot functions

• Template:Cd
  • Replaces any item stack with empty one.
  • No fields.

Changes

Items

Minecraft:Spear

• Spears now deal more damage through charge attacks dealt by players, but also mobs. This is because the spear's charge attacks now deal the attack damage Minecraft:attribute's base value on top of their formula.
• The spear model is now slightly larger.
• Spears now provide visual feedback when they hit a target in the charge attack.

Mobs

Minecraft:Nautilus

• Can no longer enter Minecraft:boats.

Minecraft:Zombie nautilus

• Can no longer enter Minecraft:boats.
• No longer suffocates outside water.

Command format

Template:Cmd

• The Template:Cd argument is now given in ticks instead of seconds.

Gameplay

Minecraft:Enchantments

• Using Minecraft:Lunge no longer causes durability damage to the Minecraft:spear.
• Using Lunge now consumes hunger points by exhausting the player, similar to sprinting or jumping.
  • Level I consumes Template:Hunger, level II consumes Template:Hunger, and level III consumes Template:Hunger.
  • Lunge can only be used if the player has at least Template:Hunger hunger points in their hunger bar.

Minecraft:World border

• World border interpolation is now dependent on game ticks instead of real time.
  • This means the world border will no longer move when the game is paused.
  • It will also respect any changes made by the Template:Cmd command.

General

Minecraft:Data pack

• The Minecraft:pack format version is now Template:Cd.

Minecraft:Enchantment definition

• Entity Effects

    • Effective only on players.

Minecraft:Tags

• Added Template:Cd to Template:Cd entity tag.

Minecraft:Textures

• The Template:Cd field of the texture section of *.mcmeta files has been replaced by a new field Template:Cd with the following supported values:
  • Template:Cd averages both color and alpha between groups of four pixels for the current mipmap level to generate the next mipmap level pixel. This was and stays the default strategy for most solid or translucent full block textures.
  • Template:Cd is similar to Template:Cd, but blends colors in a way that makes the pixels bordering cutout pixels darker. This was and stays the strategy for leaves and mangrove roots. It simulates dark interior of the blocks.
  • Template:Cd is a new strategy that always generates a mipmap based on the original texture instead of the previous mipmap. Used for most cutout blocks that became mipmapped in this version.
  • Template:Cd is a modification of Template:Cd that uses stricter alpha cutoff value leading to the textures using this value disappearing at higher mipmap levels. Is used for flowers and similar blocks to avoid artifacts.
  • Template:Cd is the default value and will make the game to pick Template:Cd for textures that do not contain fully transparent pixels and Template:Cd for those that do.
• All mipmap levels are once again animated for block animated textures.
• Beacon and redstone dust now support translucent textures.
