General Discussion

[elfin flower]

but yeah i could see why would they go data-driven stuff

probably no official way

it's pretty much within term "shader"

it'll be interesting if deferred has the same way like java "official" shader does, like probably rounded hotbar or something

[half depot]

Yeah that was the problem with that version for me and many others that used it. I tried to make the round sun work but with the current deferred tools it's just too hard to make it look good

This was the best version of the round sun I was able to get

But the moment heavy fog was introduced it got massive again

[charred ocean]

damn son i missed it

probably should have been awake a little more

[plucky cliff]

Set a breakpoint and you are good to go

[wintry lantern]

When will 1.20.70 release?

[hoary forge]

Hopefully next week

[rough path]

It is likely to be on the 12th since that week is the .22 preview week

[wintry lantern]

👍🏻

[charred geode]

1.20.70 features are complete now right?

[rough path]

Yes, it should release on the 12th since its a .22 preview week

[charred geode]

I heard

from like 2 messages above

it's a shame I missed the class where they sectioned a rat

[frosty stump]

When is item.getComponent and item.getEnchantments coming to stable T T

[stoic orchid]

Should have been 1.20.40?https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/minecraft/creator/scriptapi/minecraft/server/itemstack?view=minecraft-bedrock-stable#getcomponent

[frosty stump]

oh wait

[silver flume]

Lmao

[frosty stump]

oh i mean, when will it not return undefined T T

[quasi wedge]

That was some kind of functional change and I'm not sure when it happened

Took me a week of trying different things before I realized the solution. Just do try{} catch{}

It's not even undefined actually, it just throws an error

[frosty stump]

oohh, will try that. Thanks

[shadow mason]

hehehe

[stoic junco]

item.getComponent() works but all the item component classes are locked behind APIs

for 1.20.60*

[toxic horizon]

anybody know if the minecraft update is today or not?

Or does it only land on Wednesday or Thursdays like Previews?

[plucky cliff]

stable today??

[toxic horizon]

🤷‍♂️

[azure spade]

When Preview?

It is unlikely to be preview day my dudes

When do Previews usually happen?

Previews usually occur on a Wednesday or Thursday between <t:1703692800:t> and <t:1703700000:t>

Mar 12, 2024, 1:02 PM

[plucky cliff]

bro why there is no /faq stable

[lavish ocean]

Stable will come either tomorrow or Thursday

[plucky cliff]

bro wait u wrong

all stable are on tuesday

[magic fossil]

/faq preview

[plucky cliff]

see dates of release in #1019665690233405500

see pins

[elfin flower]

it's depends on mojang, sometimes they drop stable tomorrow or like xorkent said.

they don't have to always go with fixed release schedule

[charred ocean]

yes. it's not like it's compulsory for a company to go on a fixed pattern always. In the backend, there could be so many things running around just to release one version for a whole game that's running on like a billion devices

so try staying calm, it's normal even if something doesn't release. Since there is work going on to release that X product they've been working on

[sleek grail]

For all we could know, there's no stable release this week

[wet shell]

stable day

i probably won’t be here when it comes out

what

1.21 IS SO MUCH BETTER THAN WE USED TO THINK

a FUCKING Grappling hooks

that's so good!!!

[rough path]

1.21 was already good

[hasty grotto]

for the love of god please dont be another lazy intern taking images off of google

[limber tiger]

I wasn't crazy about it

[limber tiger]

it's not

it's a real teaser

from mojang, they also did on tik tok

[rough path]

Im guessing fan block

[hasty grotto]

maybe its just a misunderstanding?

[limber tiger]

it's a weapon

https://www.tiktok.com/@minecraft/video/7345490689779600671?is_from_webapp=1&web_id=7268124199544653354

[hasty grotto]

huh

[celest sluice]

How can you tell?

[limber tiger]

ehhh I can't talk about leaks there

[hasty grotto]

i smell hopium

[chrome plover]

where's a grappling hook in that picture? I thought they were referencing the wind charge

[celest sluice]

Looks like more than one things are being shown then

Because that looks like a block

[limber tiger]

Well I can't share leaks there but if you really want to know just hit me in dm

[toxic horizon]

there's no grappling hook :¬/

[celest sluice]

That's ok. I'd rather not be spolied

[sleek grail]

I don't see a grappling hook either

[limber tiger]

will see tomorrow I guess

[toxic horizon]

anyways, what's this block?

looks cool

[wet shell]

minecraft leak new deferred feature when

[toxic horizon]

is that tuff?

[celest sluice]

On second thought, can that even be a block? It has a low res texture for one

[chrome plover]

that stone thingy is new
it looks like it has a similar size to a conduit

[toxic horizon]

It's a dropped one, so idk

[toxic horizon]

it's 8 pixels big

[quasi wedge]

vertical slab

[rough path]

Air conduit

[sleek grail]

Does a grappling hook really make 1.21 better though? I can't see people really using it if elytras exist

[rough path]

Fan block

[toxic horizon]

nah, too big length ways

[celest sluice]

Imagine they nerf the elytra at the same time /j

[quasi wedge]

no, it's a vertical slab

[toxic horizon]

I currently am making vertical slabs 😁 for my add-on

[limber tiger]

well you will see tomorrow

[quasi wedge]

Can you not

[toxic horizon]

There's no grappling hook, calm down

[celest sluice]

Shh

Let him cook

[wet shell]

i’m only excited for deferred

[limber tiger]

If it's not, you can mute me forever in this server

[toxic horizon]

you heard him

[hoary forge]

Minecraft isn’t all about deferred, eddy.

[toxic horizon]

he's getting muted forever 😁

[limber tiger]

yeah you heard me

[toxic horizon]

keeping that ss

[wet shell]

it’s the best thing we’ve had for bedrock in a long time

in my opinion

[toxic horizon]

nah

[toxic horizon]

yes

[hoary forge]

Editor is the best thing we’ve had for a long and probably the /camera too

[wet shell]

i mean playstation never got to play with better graphics

[celest sluice]

the best thing for me is scripting

[toxic horizon]

I'm confused though

what did they die to?

[celest sluice]

fall damage

[sleek grail]

This

[rough path]

Nah...I'll probably just give you the no update discussion role XD

[rough path]

The new item

[toxic horizon]

But I thought you weren't supposed to take damage from that item from the y axis you used it at?

[limber tiger]

is this a thing here?

[celest sluice]

Hey another thing. You guys notice that their screen didn't go third person on death?

[hoary forge]

Yep

[hasty grotto]

yay intern

[hoary forge]

Most likely another screenshot from google?

[hasty grotto]

unless

[toxic horizon]

also what's this?

[hasty grotto]

nvm

[toxic horizon]

It's behind the planks

[hasty grotto]

the camera zooms in or out now?

i forgot

[quasi wedge]

that could be anything

[hoary forge]

Or could be nothing

[toxic horizon]

there's diamonds, planks, new block, bow, gold ingot and that thing

[quasi wedge]

simply a baked potato

[toxic horizon]

wait

it's a bucket

[celest sluice]

Oh dear

[toxic horizon]

new bucket confirmed

omg

[lapis sierra]

If they add a new item it better be data driven

OR ELSE

[quasi wedge]

that's funny

[rough path]

It won't be data driven lol

[celest sluice]

Reeeee

[rough path]

Gotta kill HCF first before data driving vanilla items

[quasi wedge]

They wouldn't want to do that when they're still reworking events

[rough path]

If they add new entities then it will be data driven in 1.21.XX

[celest sluice]

Do you think they'll use scripting in vanilla Minecraft (not editor)

[rough path]

Once HCF is stabilized sure!

[quasi wedge]

Like our VP will contain scripting for things like the wind charge to just do applyKnockback?

[hoary forge]

Probably?

[lapis sierra]

Imagine slow script errors from minecraft itself lol

[rough path]

As @tropic chasm wanted, a vanilla js file for custom components

[rough path]

Wind charges are entiteis 😄

[quasi wedge]

oh

[lapis sierra]

entiteis

[hoary forge]

entite is

[rough path]

[hoary forge]

Who’s entite?

[toxic horizon]

That sounds like a disease or something like that

[celest sluice]

entities' weird cousin

[lapis sierra]

I saw that

[celest sluice]

No you didn't

https://tenor.com/view/йокелемене-men-in-black-light-sunglasses-gif-15516530

[toxic horizon]

akshually. It's entité

[hoary forge]

Anyway, I’m hoping for more editor features this week :3

[toxic horizon]

Haven't used it yet, might try to find a video about what it can currently do

oh damn, https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/minecraft/creator/documents/editoroverview?view=minecraft-bedrock-stable

Basically Bedrock's version of integrated world edit it looks like lol

but a lot better

[hoary forge]

And you can make extensions for it

[toxic horizon]

wow

[toxic horizon]

what would the extensions be able to do?

[hoary forge]

Add more tools

You can do a couple of things with them since you would be using scripting

[limber tiger]

Sometimes I wonder who does the french translation

[celest sluice]

dragon function? Is that what it says

function of dragon?

[limber tiger]

yeah

[rough path]

RenderDragon

[celest sluice]

FunctionDragon

[limber tiger]

does it says Render Dragon in US?

[celest sluice]

Yeah

[limber tiger]

yeah no effort there

it's like some more features for ender dragon than render dragon lmao

[celest sluice]

functional dragon. The french get to ride on the ender dragon confirmed

[quasi wedge]

Where table

[tropic chasm]

We have them?

[rough path]

No

[tropic chasm]

ahw I was so hyped because I saw a new post in #1019665690233405500

[languid tinsel]

Happy stable day!

[celest sluice]

Amogus in Minecraft??

[magic fossil]

Mojang what the fuck

[rough path]

They already warned you

https://discord.com/channels/523663022053392405/1185269394834731139 and #1217138140813463622 please 😉

[magic fossil]

There are no substitute 💀

[heady sable]

Even Kayla warned about it before it was released in a preview

Scripting API

[magic fossil]

no more molang worldgen ?

[heady sable]

Worldgen has been broken since C&C. Mojang is working on fixing that eventually, but for now it will be gone

[rough path]

How does t his break molang world gen though

[rough path]

Erm actually, features and feature rules still work

[heady sable]

[magic fossil]

Molang worldgen relies heavily on Molang

[rough path]

And please, pray tell, what query in that list prevents you from doing this?

[magic fossil]

None

[keen plover]

So, I've never really paid all that close attention to changelogs,

But for Experimental Technical Updates: section the parts that say BlockPistonState from beta to 1.9.0
for example that means ot moved into 1.9 stable right?

[rough path]

So then...why complain

[rough path]

Yes

[magic fossil]

biome has any tag ?

[keen plover]

Sick! I am so glad! Opens alot for what I was working on!!!

[rich vault]

No.

[toxic horizon]

Yes.

[rough path]

Do you use that for world gen? No

[magic fossil]

yeah ,but mobs-

[rough path]

Which is not related to world gen which was your original concern

[keen plover]

PlayerInteractWithEntityAfterEvent AND PlayerInteractWithBlockAfterEvent are these still experimental? 🥹

[toxic horizon]

yes sadly

[keen plover]

Ehhh.

[rich vault]

Told you #1217138140813463622 message

[keen plover]

That's so sad.

[magic fossil]

I mean ,i was afraid of the "conditional lists" crisis

[toxic horizon]

Kayla said it might be out in 1.20.80, because there were some problems with the afterEvent for BlockAfterEvent I believe

but that's if there isn't any new problems that they found, fopefully 🤞

[keen plover]

In the changelog it says

Fixed the timing of PlayerInteractWithEntityAfterEvent and PlayerInteractWithBlockAfterEvent

So, it will probably be out for 1.20.80 then.

[toxic horizon]

hopefully ye

[dreamy bison]

im predicting something big tmrw

[rough path]

THE RETURN OF CUSTOM COMPONENTS

[dreamy bison]

😤😤😤

[rough path]

Hey kayla, if you can say, will custom components returning tomorrow include new ones or just onStepOn

[cerulean quarry]

onStepOnDirtWithNoRootsButItIsAboveY40

[celest sluice]

Minecraft but Stepping on dirt with roots above Y 40 gives OP enchants

[cerulean quarry]

wow, o need this mode, and it will be so easy to create with this custom component, i wish they add it ||No OP enchants possible via API||

[stoic orchid]

I don't know. I haven't read the release notes yet.

[rough path]

😤 SMh @languid tinsel how dare you not give kayla the changelogs yet

[languid tinsel]

Sorry Kayla

Kayla can you pass me the release notes so I can read the release notes to pass you the release notes to satisfy smokey?

[tropic chasm]

release notes

[stoic orchid]

noted. release the notes

[chrome plover]

[languid tinsel]

Kayla here are the release notes. Noted. Release the notes

[stoic orchid]

Thank you. I shall review

looking at these notes, yes, we should see some custom components stuff this week

[rough path]

https://tenor.com/view/cr1tikal-penguinz0-meme-woo-yeah-baby-gif-19316511

[devout barn]

I've been hearing some nasty stuff happening with marketplace add-ons with the 1.20.70 update D:

like everything add-on related disappearing in people's worlds

[lapis sierra]

Interesting

Wish I could actually update

[stoic orchid]

A bunch of us are testing. It isn't 100%. For some of us, a reboot of the game fixed the issue.

If you see the issue and have info, plase feel free to send my way.

[lapis sierra]

Would suck if people had a bunch of update blocks in their worlds

[fast abyss]

For me add-ons automatically got removed from world i created with add-ons and they were not present in behaviour/resource packs list until i restarted the game

[magic fossil]

Is deffered a part of the Add-Ons API ?

[tropic chasm]

That would suck after the texture change

Still wishing for Mojang to give us some stable script files that are an exact replica of current experimental block components 🥰

[fast abyss]

Got it

This happens when I launch game without internet access

Add-ons just disappear

[devout barn]

saw that exact thing in a recently created bug report :/

hopefully the restarting the game thing is a reliable fix

[devout barn]

I guess cuz the game needs to verify ownership right?

so if the game can't verify, then no add-on for you

Here's a bug report with a good amount of comments further describing the issue https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MCPE-179523

[sleek grail]

What

[rough path]

Essentially vanilla custom components in the vp

[sleek grail]

Seems like something the community could make easily

[rough path]

Problematic if / when they data drive blocks / items and some use events (ie food, durability decrease bc for some reason thats not implicitly called in the durability component, on contact, etc)

[tropic chasm]

Yup

[limber tiger]

I bet we are going to get the preview tomorrow so mojang launch the new item on both snapshot and preview the same day

[wet shell]

probably not

[rough path]

It is

[wet shell]

oh

oops i read that wrong

i thought it meant marketplace addons

[magic fossil]

so addons are client+server ? unlike datapacks which are just server ?

[rough path]

Within Minecraft, there are so many ways to be creative and build the worlds of your dreams. But when you want to extend Minecraft even further and introduce new mobs, items and other artifacts into your world, you’ll want to go to the next level of creation by building new Add-On packs that can transform Minecraft.
https://minecraft.wiki/w/Add-on
Available through Minecraft Marketplace, add-ons let you add new blocks, mobs, items, recipes, and other content to both your existing worlds and new ones
https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/article/introducing-add-ons

Add-ons are the first step toward bringing customization to all editions of Minecraft and are officially supported by Mojang/Minecraft. They allow the addition of elements to the game through a combination of resource packs and behavior packs

[celest sluice]

So. Snapshots are getting delayed. You think preview will be delayed to match release times?

[limber tiger]

Yes

for sure

[eternal shoal]

i hope not

snapshots are not delayed to match preview release times

[rough path]

It's not out of the realm of possibility though since the Java team can drop snapshots at any time

[azure spade]

When Preview?

Ladies and Gentlemen, it is with great honour to announce that it might be preview day

When do Previews usually happen?

Previews usually occur on a Wednesday or Thursday between <t:1703692800:t> and <t:1703700000:t>

Mar 13, 2024, 2:02 PM

[plucky cliff]

poor frog is always sad, be it preview day or non preview day

[limber tiger]

oh lmao

[rough path]

?

[limber tiger]

don't you see the problem?

[rough path]

post pic
refuses to elaborate

[limber tiger]

on the item frame, the color overlay

is on the normal item

look at the item in hand and in the item fram

in the item frame, the wolf armor overlay texture isn't used for the color

instead, it's just the normal wolf armor item that change color

[limber tiger]

and it's so obvious to see the problem 🙂

[rough path]

Not really no

[limber tiger]

it's really, you can tell the difference

[rough path]

What's obvious to you isn't obvious to others especially to someone who has no idea what to look for

[limber tiger]

the bug is pretty visible

[rough path]

to someone who has no idea what to look for

[limber tiger]

and?

it's still obvious

[rough path]

Nvm...clearly you don't udnerstand

even though what i said is pretty obvious

[limber tiger]

the item frame is the main and most visible element on the screenshot

so you are looking at it at first and if you know minecraft well you should notice that it's not supposed to be looking that way

[rough path]

to someone who has no idea what to look for

[limber tiger]

then you don't know how to look at a screenshot

[rough path]

Sure, let me post a C++ screenshot and you tell me what's wrong then

[limber tiger]

it's absolutely not the same thing LMAO

we both know Minecraft lol

https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MCPE-179564
in case you don't understand what's wrong 🙂

[rough path]

How do you know my knowledge though?

If I post a screenshot of the ScriptAPI code could you tell me what's wrong at a first glance? If i post a weird add-on bug, can you tell me what's wrong at first glance?

Regardless providing context is very helpful

[limber tiger]

I mean, you are an admin on a MC server, your main content on twitter is minecraft

[limber tiger]

that's not vanilla type of stuff, it's modding

[rough path]

Again, regardless of knowledge, provding context is important

[limber tiger]

When it comes to technical stuff, of course you have more knowledge then me

[limber tiger]

Well I did

now

not when I posted the screenshot

[rough path]

When it comes to gameplay stuff, you have more knowledge than me

[limber tiger]

but later yeah, for this yeah it's my fault

for me it was obvious this is why I didn't give a context

[rough path]

The last time I messed with survival or paid attention to vanilla was... 1.19?

[limber tiger]

damn

that's a while

[quasi wedge]

pretty much same

our 1.20 adventure lasted a week before we stopped because there was nothing new really keeping us playing

[ionic ocean]

Oof, yeah. And the current slate of add-ons just aren't good enough for me and my friends to go with most of those, either. Gotta wait for the really high-quality stuff, I guess.

I hate to say it, but I think I need combat or an End update to really keep me going for more than a few weeks on some future release.

[limber tiger]

yeah a end update would be dead cool

[lapis sierra]

I tend to ignore most of the new stuff and just stick to the core game

I like mining and building, not whatever archeology was supposed to be.

[toxic horizon]

Java's Snapshot is tomorrow

[rough path]

Yes...that's what we were discussing

🗿

[lapis sierra]

preview today?

[celest sluice]

What kind of discord layout is that?

[rough path]

compact mode

[lapis sierra]

idk if anyone said anything

[celest sluice]

I've never seen that before 😯

[celest sluice]

No one said anything yet

[lapis sierra]

okay 👍

[limber tiger]

possible but considering the snapshot delay to tomorrow, there is a little chance

[quasi wedge]

I don't think they're related

[limber tiger]

I don't know if we ever had a feature that was released before in preview than snapshot

[charred ocean]

are we still allowed to say "beta day"

probably not coz kayla being kayla anyway

[rough path]

A few

Goats, mountains

[limber tiger]

oooh okay

well then it's possible

[charred ocean]

wish we could make custom game modes using addons

like fully functional and customisable game mode addons

[fluid wadi]

Frogs were too, I think

[rough path]

Yes, so were some sculk stuff

There's a few

[zinc bridge]

I wonder why the minecraft:tags component isn't available on blocks yet 🤔

[rough path]

Probably soon™️

You can still add tags

I still disagree with BE's tag system

[zinc bridge]

Of course, but I wonder if it has something to do with the fact that most vanilla block tags don't use a namespace

[zinc bridge]

like including it within the respective content file?

[rough path]

Yerps, I prefer JE's system

cough Upvote https://discord.com/channels/1138536747932864532/1215478326811168860 cough

[zinc bridge]

Definitely, seems much nicer for compatibility and also lets them make certain gameplay elements data driven.

maybe when block tags get re-evaluated perhaps we'll see the mineable tags from Java

[rough path]

They just need tag parity

[ionic ocean]

I don't know that they would add the tags component to blocks.

[rough path]

Why not

[ionic ocean]

Maybe? I mean, I love block permutations, but they have the issue wherein there's no concept of stacking sub-compoennt data.

[zinc bridge]

yeah, it seems like the tag system on Bedrock just isn't as fleshed it technically. Java dynamically creates a tag registry for all registries in the game.

[rough path]

It's jarring to have your API use two different structure for tags

[ionic ocean]

The tag: syntax works around that issue.

I'm sure they want creators the freedom to use different tags sets on different permutations without permutation logic getting in the way.

It'd be like bone_visibility before Molang was supported.

[zinc bridge]

I feel like being able to tag permutations is just simply a result of the flattening not being a thing for a long time.

[rough path]

block aliases

[ionic ocean]

I guess they could just add a Molang syntax for tags? Like

"minecraft:tags": [
  "a",
  {"b": "q.block_state('a:b') == 2"}
]

[zinc bridge]

or maybe block entities that can hold data

[ionic ocean]

Block dynamic properties…

Also, hi ExDrill.

Been… way too long.

[zinc bridge]

surprised a basic implementation of block entities haven't been added, dynamic properties on blocks would be great.

[rough path]

They probably want to kill HCF first

[ionic ocean]

Well, we don't even have block item customization, so…

Can't wait until they're through with this multi-year stuff so we can finally get some new features on blocks and items.

[rough path]

😅 wdym block item customisation?

[ionic ocean]

(Yes, I'm aware we've had new things here and there.)

Like customization of the auto-generated item stack created when a block is registered.

[zinc bridge]

my only concern with custom components is how they're going to data drive their own blocks

[rough path]

And in English?

[zinc bridge]

maybe they'll just keep creating traits

[ionic ocean]

😦

[ionic ocean]

https://tenor.com/view/that-won't-happen-crowley-david-tennant-good-omens-that's-not-possible-gif-6059915963003983433

[rough path]

Some have suggested to provide a vanilla js file in the vp that registers the custom components

[zinc bridge]

though I feel like the custom components we have now are more inline with traits than individual components

[ionic ocean]

You can't make the item for a block have, say, glint applied. Or have an alternative max stack size. Or anything else items can do.

[rough path]

Well tehcnically tehre was a workaround 😅

[zinc bridge]

my only issue with that is performance, if they can make it performant, then it should be fine.

[celest sluice]

in 👏 ven 👏 to 👏 ry 👏
component

[rough path]

till they killed it

[zinc bridge]

watchdog when 6ms

[celest sluice]

https://tenor.com/view/reari-dog-barking-koreaboomina-bblmina-gif-24010279

[zinc bridge]

yeah, funnily enough if you have an item with the same identifier as the block item, it starts getting weird properties

it works somewhat well in singleplayer, but horribly in multiplayer

[rough path]

yeah that was the workaround... :/ it doesn't work anymore afaik, you would use blockplacer

[ionic ocean]

You can still use block placers, but it's a whole different item.

That's a problem for command visibility and pick block functionality.

[rich vault]

Lol, if only

[rough path]

The workaround was having the same id which would work iirc with pick block

[zinc bridge]

Honestly I understand why the item is auto-generated, it's easier for creators

but like... atleast let us override it or something

I have a bit of pet peeves with custom blocks, which is why I don't like making them :P

[ionic ocean]

Well, if we ever see something like this and we don't have good options for permutations, it wouldn't kill us to suggest some new form like suggested. But let's wait if/until they have a new format.

[zinc bridge]

I usually focus on making minigames for fun nowadays

[ionic ocean]

I love making blocks. Maybe more than world generation. There. I said it.

[rough path]

block aliases and java's tag system

[ionic ocean]

There's just something so fun about having one of these and running around placing them by the hundreds in sloppy fashion.

[zinc bridge]

See I would like to make more blocks, but no vanilla tool interactions and lack of block loot table functions makes me stray away from it 😢

[rough path]

wdym lack of block loot table func?

[ionic ocean]

Block loot table functions?

For the former concern, I had to rewrite vanilla tools from scratch. Took me a whole day of research!

[zinc bridge]

functions designed for blocks, although now that I remember I don't think there were that many on Java.

[rough path]

Such as?

[ionic ocean]

Not sure why they don't just add some tag acceptance to vanilla diggers…

[zinc bridge]

I did a dumb, I meant the silk touch stuff for custom blocks.

[dreamy bison]

I hope my prediction is right and we get something cool today

[eternal shoal]

i hope for SSS

[rough path]

It works?

Match tools

[dreamy bison]

super scrumptious scenery?

[zinc bridge]

no, that's precisely what I'm saying. The fact it's impossible to query for silk touch on custom blocks because of how they were implemented.

[eternal shoal]

Subsurface scattering

[dreamy bison]

i was close

[rough path]

...you can use match tools though?

[ionic ocean]

No.

[rough path]

Or are you trying to say cancel silk touch?

[ionic ocean]

The engine uses a forced auto-generated loot lookup for when Silk Touch is used.

I guess you can use scripting to cancel that loot drop and reimplement the loot you want using scripting…

[zinc bridge]

yeah

in other news, I love data driven entities and the way they interact with scripting is simply too good.

[toxic horizon]

With Java's tag system, is it possible to do block permutations with different tags?

if the tags are all in 1 file?

[zinc bridge]

block states don't support tags on Java

[rough path]

implement block aliases and assign those aliases to the tag file

[toxic horizon]

hmm

[quasi wedge]

that's what I do

[toxic horizon]

what are aliases again? xD

[zinc bridge]

only entities support aliases at the moment, but they're alternative identifiers for an entity

you can even make them spawn in with certain properties set by default

[rough path]

Well...we have 1 hr 10 minutes left until preview window is over

[ionic ocean]

I mean, yeah… but you'd ideally want them to provide specific Silk Touch and pick-block functionality.

[azure spade]

When Preview?

Ladies and Gentlemen, it is with great honour to announce that it might be preview day

When do Previews usually happen?

Previews usually occur on a Wednesday or Thursday between <t:1703692800:t> and <t:1703700000:t>

Mar 13, 2024, 3:02 PM

[rough path]

A recent good use of entity aliases would be for the wolves?

[quasi wedge]

yeah.. I'd also like fortune to work with loot tables

but that doesn't work either

[ionic ocean]

It does.

[zinc bridge]

Have you guys heard that Java is preparing itself for data driven blocks?

[rough path]

Yeah

it was found in the files like...mid/late 2023

[zinc bridge]

it's not as powerful as what bedrock is capable of, but all blocks will be data driven when it releases

[rough path]

You never know

[ionic ocean]

How're they handling vanilla edge cases if it wouldn't be as powerful?

[zinc bridge]

it's hard to explain, have you guys worked with datapacks like worldgen?

since it's mostly the same concept

[rough path]

We just have to wait and see

[ionic ocean]

Yeah, very briefly. It was horrible compared to Bedrock.

[zinc bridge]

it's a type system with blocks with some configuration

[ionic ocean]

Did they ever stop using JSON structures for math operations?

[zinc bridge]

no, not really.

[celest sluice]

Molang On top

[ionic ocean]

Molang is seriously the best thing about working on Bedrock.

Too bad the queries are an organizational mess.

[zinc bridge]

Though datapacks just won't ever have some of these things that Bedrock has

they're designed in a completely different way

[toxic horizon]

does Java not have Molang?

[rough path]

Nolang

[toxic horizon]

damn

imagine

[fluid wadi]

The only thing I envy about Java development (not including mods) is display entities, along with the entity data access.

[toxic horizon]

display entities?

the no AI ones?

[fluid wadi]

Although I feel like they are gearing up to have the role that was previously fulfilled as NBT in parity

[fluid wadi]

Yeah

[rough path]

Oh wait...could DST have affected the preview's release hour

[toxic horizon]

good question

I'm going to say no

[fluid wadi]

Preview is based on Washington, so it would have Daylight Savings

[celest sluice]

Like it would release at 12 instead of 11?

[zinc bridge]

yeah, but it should be out now?

[hoary forge]

Probably?

[fluid wadi]

So if you don’t move for Daylight savings, then yes, otherwise, probably not

[rough path]

Yes that's correct however they could just adjust it for the week only

[fluid wadi]

That’s true

[toxic horizon]

what was the last preview released that was in DST?

anyone know?

[fluid wadi]

I don’t remember well, but I have some kind of memory of snapshots changing time relative to DST, but previews not.

[rough path]

🤪 whenever the DST in fall 2023 was

[toxic horizon]

damn, it doesn't say the time when articles were released on the feedback page. Just the date

So can't even see if some were an hour earlier on DST or not

[hoary forge]

You can always look in the #1019665690233405500 channel

[toxic horizon]

good point xD

[fluid wadi]

1.20.50.23 was released Nov 2nd, 2023

[toxic horizon]

1.19.80.20

8th March 2023

[fluid wadi]

At 9:48 MDT

Which was 13 minutes ago

[fluid wadi]

Daylight Savings ended Sunday, Nov 5

So it doesn’t seem like it was adjusted

[lapis sierra]

My bet on no beta/preview

[rough path]

We still have ~1 hour left

https://vxtwitter.com/ZouChenyunfei/status/1767756064731345167?s=20 They figured it out

[teal acorn]

music disc?

[celest sluice]

Lol

[charred ocean]

ever thought of minecraft bedrock compressing their storage from like a 1gb to maybe let's say like 800mb

on computer

ik storage increases due to updates but aren't there ways to compress a game's storage?

[rich vault]

Not today?

[rough path]

17 mins

[lapis sierra]

not to tmrw but later today

[charred ocean]

ig will check morning about the beta then yk

the usual pheonixSC pattern is gonna be repeated with me

[toxic horizon]

wdym? Like go to sleep during the release?

[zinc bridge]

I wonder if custom components will receive events that we've never seen before

[sleek grail]

Probably

[celest sluice]

Preview when

[plucky cliff]

will preview come today or tomorrow ( bcz after 1 hour next day will start)

[cerulean quarry]

not for Europe

but hopefully it comes today, but its looks like it has been delayed already, but not sure

[plucky cliff]

total delay

@stoic orchid is also sleeping, so its tomorrow

[prisma niche]

Please don't do that. Don't ping her like that, please.

[plucky cliff]

ok

[hoary forge]

Please refrain from randomly pinging kayla, she doesn’t like it.

Also it’s already late for a preview and not everyone is on the same timezone.

[cerulean quarry]

its second time when you just ping kayla for no reason? How so? we already told you

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[wet shell]

yo what i miss

no preview ?

no weapon?

oh well

[celest sluice]

Yep, no preview

Let's wait tomorrow

[livid jasper]

[quasi wedge]

when my current crisis has been averted

[languid tinsel]

Welp goodbye preview

[toxic horizon]

no more preview?

[eternal shoal]

no more preview until 1.22

[past wharf]

new diamonds ore

with a round area to see them easily in cave and a beam to the sky

[celest sluice]

Something tells me that vanilla blocks will have the same, or at least similar geo restriction

[past wharf]

you would be still able to have bigger diamonds ore

[celest sluice]

Not very big though

[past wharf]

this was more a joke*

[celest sluice]

Oh ok. I didn't get that

[past wharf]

really ? or irony (i think 90% probability) ?

[celest sluice]

As in I didn't know it was a joke

[cerulean quarry]

||its hard to say when there is just a one ball|| also these jokes are not welcome here

[past wharf]

wym ?

ah ok

bruh i didn't tought about the form, just the cheatest possible way

😐 no but it was a tiny joke about the fact that mojang would not allow that without geo restrictions because it would be absurd if it would be without

[cerulean quarry]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

just saying how it looks

[past wharf]

you can say that I'm not funny 🫠

[cerulean quarry]

if thats not that kind of joke then its OK, but be careful with what are you drawing

also you use "ball" as 3d shape not just basic brush lmao so

Thanks for telling us 😶‍🌫️

[cerulean quarry]

[cerulean quarry]

See you tomorrow! ||Well idk if tomorrow will preview release but see you soon||

[cerulean quarry]

Delux Edition! 🫵

hmm, ok i was wrong its deluxe collection

[past wharf]

pickaxe in off-hand ?

[limber tiger]

Java resource packs allow us to modify vanilla block models

while bedrock cannot

[rough path]

And we can modify entity model

Trade offer

[limber tiger]

why not both for everyone😎

Yes it will

[obsidian lark]

Technically we can too, but it's a huge hack.

[rough path]

Youre gonna scare kayla

[obsidian lark]

However, the only entity model we can change without hacks are item frames.

[obsidian lark]

Xilefian would like it since it involves shaders.

[rough path]

Dont say that word here youre gonna attract veka

@rich vault

[languid tinsel]

Market place passs

[plucky cliff]

sure?, also @hoary forge , why you two uselessly pinged me when I already said ok to poggy

also I searched all my msgs that pinged kayla, so it was not obviously second time. you guys should stop wasting my time

[quasi wedge]

It took you more time to type that and search for messages than to just ignore it and go on with your day

[silver flume]

That's crazy

[plucky cliff]

i was double checking if he really true in his claim that I uselessly pinged kayla second time

[prisma niche]

^

[plucky cliff]

and dont worry about me, i have very few msgs

[plucky cliff]

i think, i had already said ok to you

just read msg below

those 2 were teaching me not to uselessly ping by pinging me uselessly (after i have said ok to you)

[charred ocean]

yes, so the preview can wake up

[eternal shoal]

Slay

[eternal shoal]

I wish we could do it

[stoic orchid]

What would you want to do specific with this capability?

[eternal shoal]

3D planks

[stoic orchid]

nice so like just creating depth in the geometry

[eternal shoal]

Bushy leaves

[eternal shoal]

Yes

[stoic orchid]

good scenarios

you get a cookie

[lapis sierra]

I want this added because I want to be able to use the vanilla block models without using the Java ones or recreating them..

3d blocks would be really cool though

[charred ocean]

where's mine :(

also damn, 185 downloads. Didn't expect that

[wet shell]

snapshot out?

[chrome plover]

nope

[fluid wadi]

Don’t mind me, just spamming F5 on the Feedback Website for the snapshot.

[rough path]

XD a bit early

[fluid wadi]

Probably. But I’m excited!

[wet shell]

why the snapshot delay

or was it released at 11:00 am

[rough path]

There is no delay?

Its way too early

SmokeyStack (@SmokeyStack_) on X

For the US people, the #Minecraft snapshot should be releasing 1 hour later than usual due to Daylight Savings Time. The Preview however should release the usual time unless they also pushed back 1 hour to release the same time as Java. I could be wrong though

Twitter · Mar 14, 2024, 2:10 PM

[celest sluice]

Me with no DST:

[rough path]

Then it doesnt apply to you

[charred ocean]

What's DST? Another timezone?

[rough path]

Daylight Savings Time

A simple google search could help

[charred ocean]

oh wait nvm

got it

[sleek grail]

Deferrred stable technical

[charred ocean]

basically americans and canadians reversing their clock by an hour or two

to make longer use of daylight

before it becomes dark

[rough path]

No, we spring forward an hour last week

[charred ocean]

oh ok

so basically balancing up

right

also yay let's go. India's PM coming to my area

probably #off-topic is good for this

[fluid wadi]

[hasty grotto]

i think id prefer a model instead of just the sprite

heyy

wait

@limber tiger

you liar

punish him!

[rough path]

Lmao you right

[limber tiger]

Go ahead

The item we saw absolutely doesn’t look like the hammer bt yeah sure

[hasty grotto]

yeah what was going in with that

hmm

[charred ocean]

https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/article/minecraft-snapshot-24w11a

java snapshot has released

[magic fossil]

Literally the same

[worthy gulch]

Found a glitch already

[fast abyss]

Looks like clouds shadows

[worthy gulch]

But they should render at the whole fov

I think the bug they made is that clouds shadows render at 60 fov

[fast abyss]

For me clouds shadows just disappear as soon as I am not looking at clouds

Maybe they just derender

[hasty grotto]

i think its the heavy core

[zinc bridge]

Has preview arrived on Windows for anyone else?

[heady sable]

Nope!

[charred ocean]

came on android

update reached out here my side

[half depot]

It's out on mobile devices rn

iOS got it immediately

[tropic chasm]

Are there any valid, good reasons for the textures parameter in blocks.json to exist? Imo it simply leads to confusions, specially with how we have minecraft:material_instances working with geometries, rotations, etc, but those features not working with textures on blocks.json

[rough path]

Vanilla blovks

[tropic chasm]

With custom components we are half a step closer to modifying those 😔

[zinc bridge]

I'm hoping the experimental combat snapshots come to bedrock either by finally adding them in 1.21 or via en experimental toggle

Although I wonder how Marketplace maps will handle the changes 🤔

I guess easiest way out is just world version

[rough path]

Ohhh @ionic ocean now i know what youre complaining about from the vanilla packs...it generates from the latest slice(?) instead of from the entire versions...bc terrain_texture.json is very short

[rough path]

Unlikely to occur in 1.21. More probable in 1.21.XX

[zinc bridge]

true, I'm really hoping it comes out soon.

Having attack speed and attack reach would add so much to balancing custom weapons 🙏

[zinc bridge]

tbh with block culling rules being a thing now, I wonder if some of these components could be combined with it to make a client_block file

[rough path]

Wait till you hear that custom blocks/items resources was moved to server side

Cici complained/still complains about this all the time

[zinc bridge]

yeah, that's the thing. It's weird.

idk but no political stuff here on this server

they're not exactly playing politics, it's more like trying to stay away from them.

they does the same to russian either way

so, lets not talk about that here

[hasty grotto]

perhaps we could take this to #off-topic

[elfin flower]

perhaps not to talk about that in general

no political stuff here

[hasty grotto]

perhaps there are other complications

and that mojang isnt intentionally taking a side

ive seen some mojangsters support palestine on twitter

anyways

what was that new weapon called?

[elfin flower]

well they're either trying to stay away from those otherwise there gonna be drama anywhere

[elfin flower]

hammer

[hasty grotto]

my bad

[hasty grotto]

i keep accidentally calling it a mallet

[elfin flower]

it's pretty unbalanced atm

4 block jump from air literally oneshot any mobs with 20 health ( 10 hearts )

also has the same damage as diamond sword.

iirc this will cancel the falling damage if you hit them from the air which, idk too unbalanced

[sonic musk]

bro gotta chill

[elfin flower]

i like mac and cheese

[hoary forge]

[wet shell]

anyone know how to make a pbr pack?

like how to turn a normal pack into a deferred compatible pack

[carmine kettle]

Try this out: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/minecraft/creator/documents/deferredlighting

[half depot]

You need to enter the manifest file of the pack and create a new thing for capabilities. Then the string will say pbr. I recommend the article posted above for additional guidance but if you need any help makin proper textures feel free to dm me

[lunar musk]

Is this a performance thing?

[cursive pond]

@stoic orchid I know I usually complain but genuinely thank you this is a very good day!
https://github.com/Mojang/bedrock-protocol-docs

(Idk if you are involved in this or not)

[hoary forge]

I don’t think she’s involved but I was just looking at that and it’s great

[rotund pivot]

wtf

nah bruh

they gone make this an excuse to get rid of bds symbols

watch & see

[cursive pond]

😦

[rotund pivot]

https://github.com/CloudburstMC/protocol-docs

[lunar musk]

Oh wait for bedrock protocol...

[cursive pond]

Probably would be best to make a wiki.vg like version where it's just one page so more easily searchable

[rotund pivot]

or just updating the wiki.vg page 🐿️

[elfin flower]

Interesting.

apparently ore-ui do indeed has dropdown and only usable for smaller screen

[sonic musk]

huh? where

[elfin flower]

normally it'll be separate buttons like gamemode toggle

[rough path]

Ofc ore ui has dropdowns

[sonic musk]

damn looks kinda good tho

[elfin flower]

yeah and seems pretty rare since i dont see dropdowns anywhere

i guess they done that so the text doesn't get crammed up

[rough path]

Editor mode

👍

[elfin flower]

don't really have access to it tbh

[sonic musk]

huh?
if you have preview on pc you can access it

[elfin flower]

Arch linux.

[sonic musk]

install windows 🗿

[elfin flower]

Bloatwares.

[sonic musk]

🗿 as a windows user i can confirm

[rotund pivot]

gotta love these references to client only functions

[zealous salmon]

I doubt many of the additional docs were actually designed for people outside of Mojang

[south bay]

thats what readme says about

[rough path]

1.21.XX is gonna be so hype for add-on creation

[chrome plover]

me waiting for playerInteractWithEntity

[rough path]

😔 welp, youve done it, you pushed it back to minecraft/server v1.12.0

[chrome plover]

Nooooo

[cursive pond]

true but it's better than nothing... and at least now that means (in theory) the protocol not behaving as specified is a bug and not just a "shrug, who's to say that's not what it's supposed to do?"

but who knows if they'll actually accept protocol bug reports...

[zealous salmon]

I'm not sure if they intend on it becoming a forum where we can report issues we have with the protocol, but it would be cool if it did

Just something to keep in mind if you ever do use the changelog.md files, they're not always 100% accurate so sometimes it's best to also scan through the git diffs of the dot/html files incase something is missing

[hasty grotto]

if its going to fallback to dropdowns then the entire user interface should do that rather than only some parts

it looks inconsistent

[uncut cape]

Does removed mean that it won't work anymore when I use previous format versions?
Wouldn't that mess up marketplace packs?

[elfin flower]

yeah, it does. i guess this is more of design choice rather than making it annoying to use

if you're gonna use a high scale GUI, I guess that's your fault.

[rough path]

Marketplace stuff arent allowed to use experimental

[gusty sedge]

I am curious what will happen to the few marketplace packs that do use it. Though those were free, so mojang might not worry as much about them

Or they might have been taken down or something

Not really a big deal, as they're like 3.5 years old now anyway

[hoary forge]

huh

Dont like old ones

[hoary forge]

Same!! I’ve been using the new ones

[elfin flower]

???????

[elfin flower]

well idk anymore its just texture changes like, it's not the end of the world if the texture got changed

[hoary forge]

22 hours ago - The old touch controls removed in 1.20.70
1 hour ago - The old touch controls have been re-added in 1.20.70

What

[elfin flower]

me either

[prisma niche]

[charred ocean]

same here

also damn, online after 6 hours. Couldn't know about the time at all

[elfin flower]

probably trying to gain impression

[celest sluice]

IIRC it wasn't just a texture change. A few things about the control got messed up.

[hasty grotto]

the spacing was slightly messed up

and people on reddit describe it like its the end of the world

and the people replying to them confidently tell them how to go back to the old controls despite them already being on the old controls

[charred ocean]

minecraftnews account?

[elfin flower]

yep

[elfin flower]

Well I don't know. it's actually works better for me too since the original version somehow made my camera go spinning randomly if i swipe my dpad too much.

[hasty grotto]

that bug is so old

though i remember it being more common pre better together

[elfin flower]

yeah, idrk why didn't they add a deadzone to it so that bug doesn't happen

Me too

[elfin flower]

i love turning my phone into grenade

[wet shell]

Hopefully today is a preview day

🤞

[prisma niche]

Oh wow it is banana day

[tropic chasm]

I want on_interact

[prisma niche]

I though it was Tuesday\

[elfin flower]

i thought it was monday what

[tropic chasm]

and on_placed or on_destroyed

[prisma niche]

Curious if that would make our block automatically allow right click when we register it

[tropic chasm]

Should do

I really really need on_interact

[prisma niche]

rn I use on_use with a null event to allow scripts to det3ect players using the block

script useOn does not get called when the block can't be used

[tropic chasm]

Yeah

We have to make the block right clickable to use that

Which is why on_interact should do that too

[prisma niche]

Yea, when we register it in our block

I am waiting for on_place for my doors

[chrome plover]

Hopefully

[prisma niche]

pray it does not get delayed for 6 hours on windows

like last week

[elfin flower]

weak.

we android people got delayed nearly 2 days

[half depot]

Or have a critical error that stops release

[livid jasper]

before costum components we really need a few more vanilla components like waterlogable, pick, fuel

[prisma niche]

I may be wrong, but we can do that in scripts. (I am wrong right?)

only waterlog

pickblock tho...

don't understand what you mean by fuel, since I think in items we can define it

[livid jasper]

items can have the fuel component but block not

[prisma niche]

I see your point

don't they use a tag for that?

[keen plover]

I hope the update is out soon! I need it so badly right now for work :/

[chrome plover]

I think a better solution would be having a way to render an item as a block, then you could add the fuel component and block placer component to the item and it would look like the normal block

[prisma niche]

Let me test something real quick

[livid jasper]

but it is better to be able to do this with just blocks

[prisma niche]

I thought furnaces uses tags for fuel

[livid jasper]

in the fuel component you can also set how long it can burn

that wasnt possible with tags

[prisma niche]

Yea, but like, I thought they use block tags to allow a block in the fuel slot with a default burn value

[livid jasper]

idk

[rough path]

LOL no

Get HCF gone first then we can add new features

[chrome plover]

do you guys remember the 1.13 minecon where they showcased water flowing through fences and stuff instead of just water sources

[celest sluice]

That works on certain blocks right?

[chrome plover]

does it? I thought it's just water sources

[celest sluice]

Repeaters are one of the blocks

[chrome plover]

oh interesting, didn't know that

[celest sluice]

It's weird that fences don't work now. They have the tech for it already

[chrome plover]

https://minecraft.wiki/w/Waterlogging#Behavior
there's a list here, quite the odd choices lol

[devout barn]

They’ve always had the tech, since the image was made in Bedrock Edition, and yeah some blocks are supported, like buttons and redstone, but I believe other blocks like fences and signs were changed because community was saying it would break builds

So it’s just pretty much unused in bedrock edition
Also java edition has a much more limited waterlogging system anyways so there would’ve been large disparity also

[chrome plover]

ohh that makes sense

[devout barn]

The main goal anyways was to eliminate the air pockets created when building with partial blocks underwater (in oceans there are source blocks everywhere), so waterlogging in flowing water probably was less of a priority anyways

[sonic musk]

I feel like this is one of the places where realism doesn't fit minecraft

[quasi wedge]

Hopefully me mentioning the bug with the onStepOn and onStepOff boundaries somehow got fixed without me making a bug report 😓

[lapis sierra]

Bug reports are too hard

Just post them here

[celest sluice]

I just realized. Water used to look like that...

[lapis sierra]

I'm sure Kayla will see them

[rough path]

What boundaries?

Referring to having to be at least 4 pixels colission?

[quasi wedge]

#1217858750031859733 message

onStepOff will trigger even if you are still on the block if there is another block at the same y-level next to it and you are as close to the edge as you can be and move between them

[rough path]

Im pretty sure works as intended

[celest sluice]

Yeah I think that counts as stepping off

Since your feet location is now on a different block

[quasi wedge]

It doesn't happen anywhere else I move between the blocks

[rough path]

It could be detecting you're stepping off and on at the same time

[quasi wedge]

it could just be an issue with my detection js if(entity.dimension.getBlock({ x: entity.location.x, y: (entity.location.y) - 1, z: entity.location.z }).typeId != eventData.block.typeId) { world.sendMessage(`You have stepped off the ${eventData.block.typeId}. Now standing on: ${entity.dimension.getBlock({ x: entity.location.x, y: (entity.location.y) - 1, z: entity.location.z }).typeId}`) entity.__onEffectBlock = 0; }

but it ONLY happens at the border between two

if that block is by itself, that is not an issue

[celest sluice]

Yeah that sounds about right

[wet shell]

Looks like it wasn’t a new feature announcement https://youtube.com/shorts/q7lWylV-wo4?si=qwgXs2ZDyD4ZfYbI

[celest sluice]

When you forget they use their channel for PR too

[carmine kettle]

[wet shell]

Me too

Only a few months before he sold it tho

[azure spade]
