15w43a is the thirty-fourth snapshot for Java Edition 1.9, released on October 21, 2015.[1] Most notably, Chinese, Japanese and Korean (and likely other IME languages) can now be input into chat thanks to bug MC-2781 being fixed. Igloos were also added in this version.
Additions
World generation
- Spawns randomly in ice plains and cold taiga (but not the hills variant).
- Spawning parameters are shared with desert pyramids, jungle temples, and witch huts: the fact of a structure spawn is decided, then the biome determines which structure (if any) is spawned.
- Created by Searge (as found in the NBT data).
- An igloo contains: 9 white carpets, 3 light gray carpets, 2 blocks of ice, a redstone torch, a furnace, bed and a crafting table.
- Some igloos have a stone brick basement, with a cauldron, 2 red carpets, a brewing stand, 3 spruce stairs, 2 torches and a loot chest, along with a villager priest and zombie villager priest behind iron bars. An oak trapdoor with ladders leads down into the basement. Cracked and mossy stone bricks can also generate.
- In the loot chest, there is sometimes be a golden apple in the central spot, hinting that the player needs to cure the zombie.
- Always spawns with a splash potion of Weakness, hinting the player to use these on the zombie villager to turn it into the same type of villager next to it.
- The zombie has the
PersistenceRequiredtag which makes it not despawn. - Silverfish spawn in some stone brick blocks.
Command format
- Chests/minecart chests
- [String] LootTable: Loot table to be used to fill the chest when it is next opened or destroyed. When the chest is part of a double chest, only the half corresponding to the tagged single-chest is affected.
- e.g.
/setblock ~ ~1 ~ minecraft:chest 0 replace {LootTable:"minecraft:chests/simple_dungeon"}.
- e.g.
- [Long] LootTableSeed: Seed for generating the loot table. Used in vanilla survival to replicate chest content in new worlds with same seeds. 0 or omitted uses a random seed.
/setblock x y z minecraft:chest 0 replace {LootTable:"chests/simple_dungeon",LootTableSeed:12345}.
- [String] LootTable: Loot table to be used to fill the chest when it is next opened or destroyed. When the chest is part of a double chest, only the half corresponding to the tagged single-chest is affected.
- All mobs
- [String] DeathLootTable (string): Determines which loot table is used when the mob is killed.
- e.g.
/summon Creeper ~ ~1 ~ {DeathLootTable:"minecraft:chests/simple_dungeon"}.
- e.g.
- [Long] DeathLootTableSeed (long): The deterministic seed for grabbing data from the loot table. Used in vanilla survival to replicate chest content in new worlds with same seeds. Must not be 0.
- e.g.
/summon Creeper ~ ~1 ~ {DeathLootTable:"minecraft:chests/simple_dungeon",DeathLootTableSeed:123l}.
- e.g.
- [String] DeathLootTable (string): Determines which loot table is used when the mob is killed.
General
Language
