Changes

Blocks

Minecraft:Anvils

• New crafting recipe, now costs 31 Minecraft:iron ingots instead of 55.
• The player can repair items (Minecraft:tools and Minecraft:armor) using their source material.
  • To get a tool or piece of armor to its maximum durability when it is nearly broken, one must use four of its source material (Minecraft:planks, Minecraft:cobblestone, Minecraft:iron, Minecraft:gold or Minecraft:diamonds).
  • However, Minecraft:hoes are not able to be repaired.
• Reduced Minecraft:experience level cost.

Minecraft:Redstone repeaters

• When powering either side of a repeater directly with another repeater, it locks the current state of the other repeater until the signal to the powering repeater is turned off.
  • If a repeater that is on is locked, it stays on.
  • If a repeater that is off is locked, it cannot output a signal.
• When locked, the repeater's second torch is no longer be visible and a bar textured similarly to Minecraft:bedrock appears.
