Minecraft:Parity issue list
From SAS Gaming Wiki
More actions
This page is a list of parity issues between Template:Editions. A parity issue is where one feature exists only in one edition of the game and not in the other (version exclusives), or the behavior of a feature differs between both editions.
Suggestions to fix existing parity issues prior to the Minecraft:Buzzy Bees update (Template:Edition 1.15, Template:Edition 1.14.0) should be made on the feedback site or the feedback Discord.<ref group="note"> There is a new policy about accepting certain parity issues in the bug tracker; this was not in effect until late April 2020. A parity issue can be reported in the bug tracker if all of these following criteria are met:
- It is present both in Template:Editions.
- It behaves differently across editions.
- It was introduced or explicitly changed in Minecraft:Buzzy Bees or later.
See this post by a moderator on the Mojira subreddit for more details. </ref>
Note
Snapshot/beta features are listed only with Template:Tl templates. Use the Template:Tl or Template:Tl templates where applicable. Entries are not to be removed unless the changes came into the final release of the corresponding edition.
- In the section "In Bedrock Edition but not in Java Edition", [until BE (version number)] or [upcoming: JE (version number)] means it is no longer the case and fixed in the provided version; and [until JE (version number)] or [upcoming: BE (version number)] means that it was in parity before, and no longer is starting from that version.
- In the section "In Java Edition but not in Bedrock Edition", [until JE (version number)] or [upcoming: BE (version number)] means it is no longer the case and fixed in the provided version; and [until BE (version number)] or [upcoming: JE (version number)] means that it was in parity before, and no longer is starting from that version.
- In the section "Unsorted", any [upcoming] means it is no longer the case and fixed in the provided version; likewise, any [until] means that it was in parity before, and no longer is starting from that version.
Entries along the lines of "this edition does not ..." are not added but are placed into the other edition's section instead.
Do not put the desired outcome in the parity issue – this list is intended only to list the parity issues, not how they should be resolved.
This page serves as a list of all parity issues. Fore a more descriptive overview of exclusive features in Bedrock Edition, see Bedrock Edition exclusive features.

Given their rendering behavior at extreme distances it appears as though they are rendered in much the same way as rain and snow.

In Bedrock Edition, it attempts to generate 9 times per chunk in sizes of 0–106, from altitudes Y=23 to Y=36 in all biomes. It can replace netherrack and blackstone.
- Minecraft:Daylight detectors output identical power levels at different times and different weather conditions.<ref group="note">See this section for details.</ref>
- Different anvil XP costs between editions.

- Different villager Minecraft:trading between editions.
- General
- Bedrock trade groups are based on the specific trade slot. Java trade groups are based on the villager level. This affects the chances of trades that are chosen. For example, Bedrock farmers always sell bread, while Java farmers have a 40% chance to sell bread (20% per slot, 2 slots). For simplicity's sake, these groups aren't listed as they still respect the levels.
- Butcher
- The emeralds for coal trade give the villager 2 XP in Java and 10 XP in Bedrock.
- Cartographer
- The banner for emeralds trade isn't "grouped" with itself in Java. See the below point about the farmer's suspicious stew trade for an explanation of this.
- Farmer
- The suspicious stew trade isn't "grouped" with itself in Java. This affects the chances of offering the trade. In Bedrock, the chance of offering the suspicious stew is Template:Fraction for a single slot. In Java, it's Template:Fraction, as all 6 suspicious stew types are listed as separate trades.
- Fletcher
- The emeralds and arrows for tipped arrows trade may give Arrows of Decay (currently not in Java) in Bedrock, while it may give Arrows of Slow Falling in Java.

- The emeralds for terracotta and glazed terracotta trades are not "grouped" in Java, while they are all in one big group in Bedrock. See the above point about the farmer's suspicious stew trade for an explanation of this. This one is especially bad as the quartz trade 6.25% chance of appearing.
- The emeralds for quartz blocks/pillars trades are not "grouped" in Java. See the above point about the farmer's suspicious stew trade for an explanation of this. In this specific case, this means that Java always offers both trades while Bedrock always offers only one. See the above point about the farmer's suspicious stew trade for an explanation of this.
- Shepherd
- None of the colored item or dye trades are "grouped" in Java. See the above point about the farmer's suspicious stew trade for an explanation of this.

- Said bell trade has a villager XP reward of 5 in Java, while it has a villager XP reward of 10 in Bedrock.
- General
- Different wandering trader Minecraft:trading between editions.
- Bedrock has trade grouping that prevents items of similar types from being offered more than once per trader.
- All dyes are grouped (1 for 3, 12 uses), all seeds are grouped (1 for 1, 12 uses), both mushrooms are grouped (1 for 1, 12 uses), all coral blocks are grouped (3 for 1, 8 uses), and all saplings are grouped (5 for 1, 8 uses).

- When killed, adult foxes drop Template:Experience in Java and Template:Experience in Bedrock.
- Minecraft:Drowned equipment spawn rates differ.
- Have a 3% chance to spawn with a nautilus shell in their offhand in JE, as opposed to 7% in BE.
- In Java Edition, each cartographer sells its own unique explorer map that points to a different location than other cartographers. Purchasing another explorer map from the same cartographer results in the same explorer map. In Bedrock Edition, a cartographer sells explorer maps that point to the nearest unexplored location, regardless of whether it has been previously mapped by another cartographer. After a player explores the location, the cartographer sells a new map.
- In Java Edition, the movement of a mount is controlled by its passenger, if both the mount and the passenger are mobs (not players). In Bedrock Edition, for most of rideable mobs, when its mob passenger tries to chase and attack player or mobs, the passenger takes control, otherwise the mount controls movement.
- In Java Edition feeding baby animals reduces the time remaining until they grow up by 10%. In Bedrock Edition feeding baby animals reduces the total amount of time until they grow up by 10%, meaning feeding a baby animal 10 times in a row will cause them to immediately become an adult.
- Most entities have different hitbox sizes in each edition.
Commands
- Color code
§6,gold, has shadow color2A2A00in Java and402A00in Bedrock. - Commands that provide block states is written

- The file names for Minecraft:music tracks by Minecraft:C418 differ. On Java, tracks use their title from the soundtrack, but on Bedrock, tracks use a generic name (e.g. "subwoofer_lullaby.ogg" on Java, "hal1.ogg" on Bedrock)
- Menu music stops playing in Java Edition when the player leaves the main menu and stops playing in Bedrock Edition when a loading screen finishes.
- Some music tracks play in different biomes in different editions.<ref>Template:Bug</ref>
