Additions

Agent Improvements (based on community feedback)

Template:Cmd
- Remove Minecraft:agents from the world
Players will be able to show the agent coordinates on the HUD
Template:Cmd now creates or teleports the executor’s agent to the executor.
New command selectors
- @c to target the executor’s agent, @v to target all agents
- Only players with the permission worldbuilders can target all agents. By default all users will have worldbuilder permissions set to false.
The usual type filters can also be used to target particular agents, so Template:Cmd for instance would look through all entities for those of type agent whose name is Steve.Agent and teleport them to the executor. For more of a shorthand you could do Template:Cmd to target a particular person's agent that's not your own
Added spawn eggs for agents

Library Beta

Allows players to view and download worlds in-game without having to go to our website. Players will see a new button on their home screen called "Library" which leads to a list of dynamically generated "must have" worlds

Heads-up-display

Added mouse and keyboard control tips to the in-game HUD, to help players learn the how to move, break/place blocks, etc.
On by default for teachers and off by default for students, and can be configured in the settings menu.

"How to Play" menu

Educator Resources

A button on the home screen (which will show for teachers only) that takes users to a new resource on our website designed to connect them with the latest and greatest training, lessons and community content

Coding

Minecraft:Code Builder can now be used in the game rather than via a separate app. Players will be able to launch code builder using Template:Key if using a mouse/keyboard or by pressing the agent icon next to pause/chat on the top center of the screen while on touch.
Code.org and ScratchX will not be present at launch in-game. The Code Connection app can still be used to use these applications.
