Changes

Blocks

Anvils

  • New crafting recipe, now costs 31 iron ingots instead of 55.
  • The player can repair items (tools and armor) using their source material.
    • To get a tool or piece of armor to its maximum durability when it is nearly broken, one must use four of its source material (planks, cobblestone, iron, gold or diamonds).
    • However, hoes are not able to be repaired.
  • Reduced experience level cost.

Redstone repeaters

  • When powering either side of a repeater directly with another repeater, it locks the current state of the other repeater until the signal to the powering repeater is turned off.
    • If a repeater that is on is locked, it stays on.
    • If a repeater that is off is locked, it cannot output a signal.
  • When locked, the repeater's second torch is no longer be visible and a bar textured similarly to bedrock appears.

  • Fixed PvP-disabled servers still allowing players to set other players on fire using Fire Aspect enchanted swords.
  • Fixed dropping from low heights doing damage on certain occasions.
  • Fixed dropping an anvil on an end crystal crashing the game.
  • Fixed the game sometimes crashing when using F3 + H to show durability on items and then moving the mouse over a non-blank map.
  • Fixed the game crashing when maximizing the game while in the anvil UI.
  • Fixed a stack overflow error when dispensers attempted to place water or lava into a solid block.
  • Fixed the crafting table and cauldron that spawn in swamp huts spawning at the top of the hut.
