Hello again! Here is another snapshot bringing you some Armadillo changes, experimental feature changes, and a bunch of technical changes.We have some server-side performance improvements and improved debug tools along with a new transfer command. Enjoy!
Changes
- Armadillo now also rolls up when it detects a mob, or a player that has attacked it recently
- When an Armadillo is in rolled up state, its shell will protect it, and reduce the damage dealt to it, even allowing it to fully resist weak attacks
- Renamed "Allow cheats" to "Allow commands"
Technical Changes
- The Data Pack version is now 29
- Added an option to use a faster region file compression algorithm on dedicated servers
- Introduced changes to optimizing worlds
- Improved server TPS debug chart
- Reduced time needed to generate explorer maps to buried treasures
Region file compression algorithm
- Added a dedicated server configuration property region-file-compression with 2 possible values:
- deflate, the default option. Uses the old algorithm
- lz4 uses LZ4 algorithm, which requires less CPU time to compress and decompress but uses more disk space
- Changing the compression algorithm will not automatically recompress the world
- New or updated chunks will use the newly configured algorithm, but the old ones will stay in the previous format
World optimizing changes
- Optimizing singleplayer worlds and running dedicated server with forceUpgrade now also upgrades contentsof entities and poi directories of the world
- New recreateRegionFiles dedicated server startup parameter
- It will trigger world optimization similar to forceUpgrade, but will also rewrite all the chunks independentlyof whether they have been upgraded
- This will create fresh and defragmented region files
- Using this parameter after changing the region-file-compression server property will recompress all region filesin the new format
Improved the server TPS debug chart
- As before, it is accessible by pressing F3 + 2 in a Singleplayer world
- The bottom dark red section of the chart displays the time spent during the main logic of the server tick. It isequivalent to the value diplayed in the old chart
- The light brown section displays time spent on running scheduled tasks
- The purple section displays time spent executing all other code during the tick
- The top light green (or yellow or red depending on lag) section displays time spent idling, waiting for next tick
- The min, avg, max aggregate values are based on the sum of the first 3 sections
Data Pack Version 29
- Added the transfer command
transfer Command
New command that triggers a transfer of a player to another server. Only exists on dedicated servers.
Syntax:
transfer <hostname> [<port>] [<players>]
Parameters:
- hostname: String describing the hostname of the server to connect to
- port: Integer denoting the port number of the server to connect to - if omitted, 25565 is used
- players: The players to transfer - if omitted, @s is used
Experimental Features
Breeze
- Breeze is now aggressive toward Iron Golems in addition to players
- Breeze no longer retaliates against attacks from the following mobs: Skeletons, Strays, Zombies, Husks, Spiders, Cave Spiders, Slimes
- The above mobs will not retaliate when hurt by the Breeze's Wind Charge Projectile
Copper Grates
- Stonecutting Copper Blocks into Copper Grates outputs 4 Copper Grates

- MC-266707 - Trial spawners ignore custom_spawn_rules
- MC-267925 - Retrieving an item from a flower pot while holding something causes the item to end up in your off hand
- MC-267937 - Shooting a breeze with a piercing crossbow makes the game crash
- MC-267938 - The world loading percentage value can get covered by the spawn chunk loading animation when the "spawnChunkRadius" gamerule is set to large values
- MC-267941 - The end portal kills mobs at spawnChunkRadius 0
- MC-267953 - No element is focused when opening the realms world backups menu using keyboard navigation
