Minecraft:Java Edition 1.16.2 Pre-release 2

Template:Log4j vulnerability Template:Infobox version 1.16.2 Pre-release 2 (known as 1.16.2-pre2 in the Minecraft:launcher) is the second pre-release for Minecraft:Java Edition 1.16.2, released on August 5, 2020,<ref>Template:Mcnet</ref> which changes the result of inter-dimensional teleporting, allows nether roots to be broken by hand and fixes bugs.

Changes

Blocks

Crimson and Minecraft:warped roots

• Now drop when broken without Minecraft:shears again.

Nether vegetation

• No longer catches Minecraft:fire.

Items

Pufferfish

• Now gives Minecraft:Nausea I instead of Nausea II when eaten.
  • This has no practical effect in-game as the level of the Nausea effect does not change anything.

World generation

Minecraft:Badlands

• Plateaus generate more frequently at the edges of badlands.

Command format

Template:Cmd

• Template:Cmd now respects dimension scaling for relative and local coordinates: the execution position (only the X/Z part) of a command is divided by 8 when traveling from the Overworld to the Nether, and is multiplied by 8 when vice versa.
  • If a value is added after the tilde, that value is added only after the new scaled position is calculated. For instance, ~5 will first scale the player's current position (multiplying by eight when traveling to the Overworld or dividing by eight when going to the Nether) before adding five to that outputted value.
  • For example, if a player at position Template:Cd in Overworld runs command Template:Cmd, the player would now be teleported to Template:Cd in the Nether.
    • Relatively, if a player at position Template:Cd in the Nether runs command Template:Cmd, the player would now be teleported to Template:Cd in Overworld.
    • If a player at position Template:Cd in Overworld runs command Template:Cmd, the player would now be teleported to Template:Cd in the Nether.
    • If a player at position Template:Cd in Overworld runs command Template:Cmd, the player would still be teleported to Template:Cd in the Nether.
  • The behavior before this version can be done by running command Template:Cmd.
  • Applies to Minecraft:custom dimensions as well.

General

Minecraft:Custom dimension type

• Replaced Template:Nbt with Template:Nbt.
  • For example, Template:Nbt for Template:Cd is 1.0, for Template:Cd is 8.0, thus the Template:Cmd command to go to the Overworld actually multiplies the execution position (only the X/Z part) with Template:Cd (Template:Cd when vice versa), which is 8 (0.125 when vice versa).
  • If there are two custom dimension type Template:Cd with Template:Cd set to 2.33, type Template:Cd set to 3.14, then the Template:Cmd command to go to Template:Cd would multiply the execution position (only the X/Z part) with Template:Cd (Template:Cd when vice versa).
