Minecraft Snapshot 24w37a

Hi everyone! In this snapshot we have fixed the bug with Ender Pearls not teleporting the player to the point of impact. Ender Pearls will now also load chunks when thrown. Happy mining!

New Features

Changes

• Thrown Ender Pearls now load and tick chunks
• Added language support for High Norwegian

Ender Pearl Chunk Loading

• Ender Pearls now ensure that the chunk they are in or travel into is always loaded and ticking
• They also load chunks when crossing to a new dimension, so that they can always continue to travel
• This ensures that Ender Pearls can always land, and makes cross dimensional Ender Pearl travelling more predictable
• Ender Pearls now unload when a player logs out, and reappear whenever that player logs back in, similar to how mounts currently behave

Mob Conversion Details

In last week's snapshot, we fixed a bug related to which data gets transferred between mobs when converted from one type to another (ex: zombie to drowned). This week, we have reverted a few of those changes (health, attributes, and loot tables are no longer transferred).

  • This component also affects whether the equipped item will be damaged when the wearer is hurt by a given damage type

minecraft:item_name

• Name provided by this component always has the lowest priority
  • That means it will be overriden by components like minecraft:potion_contents

minecraft:potion_contents

• The appearance of a highlighted slot may now be customized by replacing sprites:

  • container/slot_highlight_back: The sprite to render behind highlighted slots
• Likewise, the appearance of a highlighted item within the Bundle can be customized with the following sprites:
  • container/bundle/slot_highlight_front
  • container/bundle/slot_highlight_back
