Beta 1.18.30.28 (Windows, Android, Xbox) or Preview 1.18.30.29 (Windows, iOS, iPadOS, Xbox) is the ninth beta/Preview version for Bedrock Edition 1.18.30, released on March 23, 2022,[2] which adds boat with chest and deep dark behind experimental gameplay, and fixes bugs.

Changes

Mobs

Hoglins

  • Baby hoglins now attack players again.

Technical

Data-Driven Items

  • Added an optional mob_amount parameter to the Damage Event Response that specifies a unique damage amount when used by mobs.

Experimental

These additions and changes are accessible by enabling the "Wild Update" and "Vanilla Experiments" experimental toggle.

Additions

Items

Boat with Chest

  • Function similarly to minecart with chests, but in boats instead, so player can take a journey on the water and carry things.
  • Crafted by combining a chest with any boat.

World generation

Deep Dark

  • New biome at the "deepest depths of the world".
  • Tends to generate under continental/mountainous areas, exclusively within the deepslate layer between Y=-1 and Y=-64.
  • The floor is covered in sculk and contains all sculk-related blocks.
  • With the exception of monster spawners, no mobs other than wardens can spawn there, similar to mushroom fields.

Changes

Items

Copper Horn

  • Changed the texture.

Mobs

Allay

  • Now has a delay for picking new items after delivering items.
  • Now only pick up the exact same item it holds.
  • Now stay close to a note block that has been played near it.
  • Are now immune to damage from its owner.

Fixes

Mobile Controls

  • Fixed issue where sensitivity was too low in new touch control schemes (MCPE-152985).
  • Fixed a case where the "Highlight Always On" option was visible for the 'Touch' interaction mode (MCPE-152972).
  • Fixed issue where buttons for new mobile control schemes were too large and too high on some devices.

Gameplay

  • Fixed underwater lava lakes not turned into obsidian during world generation (MCPE-128022).
  • Healing no longer causes a mob to be immune to damage (MCPE-152957).
  • Fixed tick range check excluding chunks that were actually in range.
  • Breaking a layer of snow placed in the same block as a flower no longer destroys the flower (MCPE-151512).

Hoglins

User Interface

  • Double tapping the crouch button will no longer toggle fly mode (MCPE-152973).
  • Fixed issue where sprint state was not resumed after hitting an obstacle when holding the Ctrl key (MCPE-152979).
