Additions
Command format
- New command that fetches the contents of a player profile from Minecraft servers.
- Since the operation might take some time, it works asynchronously.
- Results will be printed only when operation finishes, but the game will keep running unpaused.
- After successful completion, a message will be printed that lets users copy the contents of a fully resolved
minecraft:profilecomponent or/give @s minecraft:player_headwith said component. - Since the result is not known at the time of execution, this command always returns
1. - Syntax:
/fetchprofile name <player name>: resolves profile by username (case-insensitive)./fetchprofile id <uuid>: resolves profile by UUID.
General
Server Code of Conduct
- When connecting to a server, a Code of Conduct screen can now be shown.
- Accepting the Code of Conduct is required to play on the server.
- A checkbox is available for not showing the same Code of Conduct in the future.
- If the Code of Conduct changes, it will be shown again.
Changes
Mobs
- The eyes of the copper golem are now invisible as well when splashed with potion of Invisibility.
- The hitbox has been tweaked.
- The hitbox is now 0.6 blocks in width to be able to pathfind through open doors.
- The hitbox is now 1.01 blocks in height to not get stuck in certain blocks.
Gameplay
- The sound effect produced by an End flash now has a higher delay.
- Copper golems & copper chests are now audible from up to 12 blocks away.
- The copper sorting sounds have been tweaked to be quieter.
General
minecraft:skull- The
profilefield has been changed to matchminecraft:profilecomponent.- That means that it also becomes immutable and is resolved only when necessary.
- The
- Removed
align_items_to_bottomblock state property from shelf block.- It has been replaced with an equally named boolean field on the shelf block entity.
- Shelves created with this property set in the last snapshot will reset back to the default value (
false)
minecraft:profile- Player profiles in data components and block entities no longer resolve automatically.
- Previously contents of this component would permanently change when profile was resolved, i.e. downloaded from Minecraft service.
- To avoid issues with this unexpected change, the resolved value is no longer stored and contents of the profile will always remain unchanged.
- This component has now two behaviours:
- Static: when it has
propertiesfield or when bothnameandidare present or when both are missing.- In this state, profile will always render as-is.
- If
propertiesfield is missing, a default skin will be used (selected based onid, same as in offline mode). - That means skin will be frozen at the moment of component creation.
- This option is preferred for decorational uses.
- Dynamic: when it has either
nameorid(but not both).- When an item containing this profile is rendered on the client side, the profile will be resolved to most recent value.
- This means that this item will always render with current skin of targeted player.
- If a player changes skin while game is running, change will not be visible unless clients restart.
- Resolution might happen with a delay, during which item will render with a default skin.
- Profile name will replace item name only when it's present.
- Items with just
idwill show default name.
- Items with just
- Items will dynamic profiles be distinguished from static ones with label in tooltip.
- Static: when it has
- Items stack based on exact contents, so even if a dynamic component is eventually resolved to the same profile as a static one, they won't stack together.
- Player heads in older maps that have not been loaded in never versions yet will usually be converted to dynamic contents.
- The pack format version is now
84.0.
- The "Hide Lightning Flashes" accessibility setting has been renamed to "Hide Sky Flashes" and now also disables the End Flashes.
- When the flash is disabled by the setting the world will not be lit by the flash, but the flash source will still be visible in the sky and the sound effect will still play.
- Updated the panorama to show a scene with copper golems in a village.
- The version is now
66.0.
- A new boolean field has been added to server.properties called
enable-code-of-conduct.- Setting it to
truewill make the server look for code of conduct files in the codeofconduct subfolder in the same folder as server.properties - Each file in the folder should have the form <language_code>.txt
- The language shown will attempt to match the player's language.
- If it doesn't exist, the en_us code of conduct will be used.
- If that also doesn't exist, an arbitrary available entry is used.
- Setting it to
- The Statistics screen now uses the same type of tabs as the Create New World screen instead of buttons.
- Added
barrierto#impermeableblock tag. - Removed
guardianfrom#cannot_be_pushed_onto_boatsentity type tag.
- Bold and italics styles are ignored when drawing sprites.
