Minecraft Snapshot 20w48a

A Minecraft Java Snapshot

Did someone ask for a snapshot full of tasty Caves & Cliffs features? Then you came to the right place! This particular snapshot adds blocks for dripstone – stalagmites and stalactites. Or is it stalactites and stalagmites? Anyway, you can’t find them in the world just yet… but try out the functionality of the new blocks!

New Features in 20w48a

  • Added dripstone blocks and pointed dripstone

Pointed Dripstone

  • Forms a stalactite if placed on the ceiling or a stalagmite if placed on the floor
  • Can be combined to form longer stalactites & stalagmites
  • Stalagmites break if not attached to something below
  • Landing or jumping on a stalagmite hurts! They are sharp
  • Stalactites fall down if not attached to something above
  • Being hit by falling stalactite hurts! They are sharp
  • Stalactites drip water (or lava if there is lava above the ceiling)
  • A stalactite with a water source above the ceiling will gradually fill a cauldron below with water
  • A stalactite with a lava source above the ceiling will fill a cauldron below with lava after a while
  • Thrown tridents break pointed dripstone

Changes in 20w48a

  • Right-clicking a bundle in the inventory now empties one item from the bundle
  • Using a bundle now throws out its entire content into the world
  • Advanced tooltips now show how full a bundle is
  • Candles can now only be placed if there is a solid surface below
  • Wearing any piece of leather armour now prevents freezing entirely
  • Changed textures for amethysts, candles, clocks and compasses
