New conditions available for the execute if|unless sub-command:
- execute if|unless loaded <pos> - checks if the position given is fully loaded (in regard to both blocks and entities)
- execute if|unless dimension <dimension> - checks if the execution is in a matching dimension
Parameters:
- pos: Block position to check
- dimension: A dimension id
EXECUTE ON
New execute sub-command for selecting entities based on relation to the current executing entity:
- execute on <relation>
Relations:
- vehicle - the entity that the executing entity is riding
- passengers - all entities directly riding the executing entity (no sub-passengers)
- controller - the entity that is controlling the executing entity (for example: first passenger in a boat)
- owner - the owner of the executing entity, if it is a tameable animal (like cats, wolves or parrots)
- leasher - the entity leading the executing entity with a leash (might be a leash knot in case of being attached to a fence)
- target - the attack target for the executing entity
- attacker - the last entity that damaged the executing entity in the previous 5 seconds
- origin:
- shooter, if the executing entity is a projectile (like Arrow, Fireball, Trident, Firework, Thrown Potion, etc.)
- thrower, if the executing entity is an item
- source of effect, if the executing entity is an Area Effect Cloud
- igniter, if the executing entity is a Primed TNT
- summoner, if the executing entity is Evoker Fangs or a Vex
If the relation is not applicable to the executing entity or there are no entities matching it, the selector returns zero elements.
EXECUTE POSITIONED OVER
New execute sub-command for finding positions on top of a heightmap. Changes the height of the execution position to be on top of the given heightmap.
Syntax:
- execute positioned over <heightmap>
Heightmaps
A heightmap records the highest position in a column of blocks according to some criteria. Available options:
- world_surface: Any non-air block

FILLBIOME
- The amount of network data transmitted when using the fillbiome command has been optimized
TITLE
- All time arguments to title times are now time durations and work with t, s and d suffixes
WEATHER
- The duration of the weather change now matches the game's regular weather cycle if not specified
- The duration parameter is now a time duration in ticks and works with t, s and d suffixes
- To retain existing functionality, you need to add an s suffix to pre-existing commands
RIDE
New command to allow entities to start or stop riding other entities.
Syntax:
- ride <target> mount <vehicle>
- Makes a single target mount a single vehicle
- The command will fail if:
- vehicle is a player
- target is already riding a vehicle
- target and vehicle are the same entity
- vehicle is already a passenger (direct or indirect) of target
- ride <target> dismount
- Dismounts target from any vehicle it is riding
- Fails if target is not riding anything
DAMAGE TYPES
Damage Types are a new registry that can be extended through data packs. A Damage Type determines how damage is handledby the game. This includes which attributes the damage has as well as which death message is used when an entity diesdue to that type of damage.
Example:
{ "exhaustion": 0.1, "message_id": "arrow", "scaling": "when_caused_by_living_non_player" } Fields:
- message_id: The message id used for deaths caused by this damage type
- Will be combined with other string fragments to form a translation key
- exhaustion: The amount of hunger exhaustion caused by this damage type
- scaling: Whether this damage type scales with difficulty levels. Possible values:
- never: Damage is always the same
- always: Damage always scales with difficulty
- when_caused_by_living_non_player: Damage scales with difficulty if it was caused by a living entity who is not a player
- effects: Optional field controlling how damage manifests when inflicted on players. Possible values:
- hurt (default): the default hurt sound
- thorns: Thorns hurt sound
- drowning: Drowning sound
- burning: A single tick of burning sound
- poking: Berry bush poke sound
- freezing: Freeze tick sound
- death_message_type: Optional field that controls if special death message variants are used. Possible values:
- default (default): No special death message logic is applied
- fall_variants: Show a variant of fall damage death instead of a regular death message, e.g. death.fell.assist.item
- intentional_game_design: Show the intentional game design message instead of a regular death message
Damage type tags control many aspects of how damage from different sources are interpreted.
PREDICATES
DAMAGE TYPE PREDICATES
The following fields have been removed from damage type predicates: is_projectile, is_explosion, bypasses_armor,bypasses_invulnerability, bypasses_magic, is_fire, is_magic, is_lightning.
A new tags array has been added, with the predicate matching if all entries match. Each entry has two fields:
- id: The ID of a damage type tag
- expected: Whether the damage is expected to have or not have the tag for the predicate to match
GAME RULES
- Added commandModificationBlockLimit, controlling the maximum number of blocks changed in one execution of clone, fill and fillbiome
- Added doVinesSpread game rule, determining if vines will spread to nearby blocks
- Defaults to true
TEXT COMPONENTS
Added an optional fallback field to translate text components.
- The new field is a string that will be used in place of translation if it is missing
- If fallback is missing, the old behavior (i.e. using the key itself as the translation) is preserved
DISPLAY ENTITIES
Three new entities have been added for flexible display of items, blocks and text
- Those entities, similarily to marker, don't tick and have no collisions or physics
- Models render at entity position, with normal rotation around X and Y axis (so it can be controlled by teleport commands), but also with additional arbitrary model transform
COMMON DATA TYPES
Tag contents for display entities include some new data types with a complex structure. Any form can be used for modifying data, but only one form is used for saving.
TRANSFORMATIONS
Arbitrary affine transform.
- Matrix form: array of 16 numbers, describing row-major matrix
- Decomposed form (used for saving): object with following fields:
- translation - 3d vector
- left_rotation, right_rotation - rotation
- scale - 3d vector
- Transforms are composed in order translation, left_rotation, scale, right_rotation
ROTATIONS
- Quaternion form (used for saving): array of 4 numbers, describing components (x, y, z, w)
- Axis-angle form: object with following fields:
- axis - unit 3d vector
- angle - in radians
INTERPOLATION
Some properties of display entities can be interpolated. That means that clients will see gradual changes over time instead of instantaneous jumps.
Display entities keep track of current and previous values of interpolated values:
- All properties marked as "interpolated" are part of a single interpolation set
- Any update to interpolated property will cause all values of interpolation set to be saved as "current"
- Data command executions that do not change value of property (even if it's present in NBT) do not count as updates
- Updates are synchronized to clients at most once per tick, so multiple updates within command will still count as a single update
- The last values generated before an update are saved as "previous"
- If interpolation is enabled, the entity will transition between "previous" and "current" values over interpolation_duration ticks
- Interpolation can be started by writing to the start_interpolation field (this field is not normally present in NBT)
- The value in this field is a delay in ticks between client receiving the update and interpolation start
- A value of 0 ticks means that interpolation will start in next client tick after receiving the update
- Positive values increase this delay further
- Interpolation will end (entity fully in "current" state) in start_interpolation + interpolation_duration ticks after receiving the update
- The interpolation target can be updated without setting start_interpolation, but it will still behave as if it was started at the moment of the last update to start_interpolation
- That means that if the value is updated, but more than interpolation_duration ticks have passed since last start_interpolation update, the entity will immediately jump to new values
COMMON PROPERTIES
All display entity types have the following fields:
- transformation - the transformation applied to model (after normal entity orientation). Defaults to identity. Interpolated
- billboard - option to control if entity should pivot to face player when rendered:
- fixed - no rotation (default)
- vertical - entity can pivot around its vertical axis
- horizontal - entity can pivot around its horizontal axis
- center - entity can pivot around its center point
- brightness - if present, overrides light values used for rendering. Omitted by default (which means rendering uses values from entity position). Object has two fields:
- sky - value of skylight, 0..15
- block - value of block light, 0..15
- view_range - maximum view range of this entity. Actual distance depends on client-side render distance and entity distance scalling. Default value 1.0 (roughly the same as fireball)
- shadow_radius - size of shadow. Defaults to 0 (no shadow). Interpolated
- shadow_strength - strength of the shadow. Controls the opacity of the shadow as a function of distance to block below. Defaults to 1. Interpolated
- width, height - describe size of culling bounding box
- Bounding box spans vertically y to y+height and horizontally width/2 in all directions from entity position
- If either field is set to 0, culling is disabled
- Both default to 0
- glow_color_override - override glow border color. Defaults to -1 (use team color). Alpha component is ignored
ITEM_DISPLAY
Displays a single item stack.
- Stack can be changed with commands by setting slot container.0
Fields:
- item - item stack to display. Same format as in inventory (example: {id: "minecraft:dirt", Count: 1})
- item_display - describes item model transform applied to item (as defined in display section in model JSON)
- Values: none (default), thirdperson_lefthand, thirdperson_righthand, firstperson_lefthand, firstperson_righthand, head, gui, ground, fixed
BLOCK_DISPLAY
Displays a block state.
- Does not display all block entities, even if they would normally be created on block placement (like chests)
Fields:
- block_state - block state to display. Same format as item held by endermen (example {Name:"minecraft:dirt"})
TEXT_DISPLAY
Displays a text component.
Fields:
- text - text to display. Components are resolved with the context of the display entity
- line_width - line width used to split lines (note: new lines can be also added with \n characters). Defaults to 200
- text_opacity - opacity (alpha component) of rendered text. Defaults to 255. Interpolated
- background - color of background. Includes alpha channel. Defaults to 0x40000000. Interpolated
- default_background - if true, rendering uses default text background color (same as in chat). Defaults to false
- shadow - whether the text should be displayed with a shadow. Defaults to false
- see_through - whether the text should be visible through blocks. Defaults to false
- alignment - how the text should be aligned
- Values: center (default), left, right
Note: text display backgrounds uses new shader types rendertype_text_background and rendertype_text_background_see_through.
INTERACTION ENTITIES
A new type of entity that records attacks ("left clicks") and interactions ("right clicks"). Interactions are invisible and of a custom size.
Fields:
- width: Width of the entity's bounding box (default 1)
- height: Height of the entity's bounding box (default 1)
- attack: Records the last attack action on the entity
- interaction: Records the last interaction action on the entity
- response: Boolean specifying if interacting should trigger a response (arm swing, sound effects, etc - default false)
ACTION FORMAT
When an action is stored, it always has two fields:
- player: The UUID (in standard integer array format) of the player performing the action
- timestamp: The timestamp of the game tick when the event happened (stored as a long)
ADVANCEMENT TRIGGERS
- Interacting with an Interaction entity triggers player_interacted_with_entity
- Attacking an Interaction entity triggers player_hurt_entity
EXECUTE ON WITH INTERACTIONS
The Interaction entity targets the player who last interacted with it. That makes the following possible:
- execute on attacker: execute as the last player who attacked the entity
- execute on target: execute as the last player who interacted with the entity
TAGS
BLOCK BEHAVIOR
- Fire burns out faster in certain biomes, and this is now controlled by the increased_fire_burnout biome tag
MOB SPAWNING
- The only_allows_snow_and_gold_rabbits biome tag has been renamed to spawns_gold_rabbits to match its behavior
- White Rabbit variants are now controlled by the spawns_white_rabbits biome tag
- Fox variants are now controlled by the spawns_snow_foxes biome tag
MOB BEHAVIOR
- Snow Golems melting in warm biomes is now controlled by the snow_golem_melts biome tag
- Only mobs in the dismounts_underwater entity tag will now force the rider to dismount when underwater
NETWORK PROTOCOL
- Clients now reset their Secure Chat session state when receiving the login packet
PACKET BUNDLES
- Added new delimiter packet to clientbound game protocol
- All packets between two delimiters are guaranteed to be processed within same tick
- For security reasons this feature is not supported in the serverbound direction
PALETTED PERMUTATIONS
- paletted_permutations is a new type of atlas configuration source used to dynamically generate new textures in memory based on a set of color palettes
- Color palettes allow you to swap out the colors of a texture without having to supply all files for the variants of a texture in a resource pack
- This is useful for things like armor trims, where you want to be able to change the color of parts of the armor without having to create a new texture for each color
- The paletted_permutations source has a set of required parameters:
- textures A list of namespaced locations of base textures
- These textures will be used to generate variants of them that have been modified by color palettes
- palette_key A namespaced location of a color palette key file
- A color palette key is used to define the set of key pixel colors we want to swap out with the color palettes defined below
- permutations A map of permutations from suffix to a namespaced location of a color palette file
- The suffix is appended at the beginning to the resource location of the output variant textures, with a _ character separating the suffix and the base texture name
- The color palette is a texture file with a set of pixels that are used for replacing pixels that match the color palette key in each base texture
- The number of pixels in each color palette must be the same as that of the palette_key defined for this source
- Key matching is done by comparing the RGB values of each pixel in the palette_key to the RGB values of each pixel in the color palette
- The alpha channel is ignored for key matching, but in the resulting texture the alpha channel is multiplied with the color palette's alpha channel
- Pixels that do not match the palette_key are copied over to the resulting texture as-is
- textures A list of namespaced locations of base textures
- After defining a paletted_permutations source, you can then reference those namespaced output textures in other resources in your resource pack
For example, if you have the following paletted_permutations source:
{ "type": "paletted_permutations", "textures": [ "minecraft:item/leather_helmet", "minecraft:item/leather_chestplate", "minecraft:item/leather_leggings", "minecraft:item/leather_boots" ], "palette_key": "minecraft:colormap/color_palettes/leather_armor_color_key", "permutations": { "red": "minecraft:colormap/color_palettes/red", "green": "minecraft:colormap/color_palettes/green", "blue": "minecraft:colormap/color_palettes/blue" } } You can then reference the resulting textures in other resources like this:
{ "textures": { "layer0": "minecraft:item/leather_helmet_red", "layer1": "minecraft:item/leather_chestplate_green", "layer2": "minecraft:item/leather_boots_blue" } } TRIM PATTERNS & MATERIALS
- Trim patterns and materials for armor are defined by the server through the trim_pattern and trim_material registry respectively
- As a result, new trim patterns and materials can be added via data packs
- These are synchronized to clients when they join the server
- However, clients must have an accompanying resource pack to see those registered trim patterns and materials
- The paths to these textures are inferred based on the filename of the pattern json, and will try to find the textures within the same namespace as the trim pattern's name field
- The following data is defined by a trim pattern:
- asset_id which is a namespaced id used to infer texture locations and localization
- template_item which is the id of the smithing template item used to apply the trim pattern
- description which is a text component used for displaying the pattern name of an armor trim when hovering an armor itemstack
- The following data is defined by a trim material:
- asset_name which is a string used as a suffix for armor trim texture locations
- ingredient which is the id of the ingredient item used to apply the trim material
- item_model_index which is a float which defines the item model override each armor item model should target to change their visuals for this material
- override_armor_materials which is an optional map of armor material to overridden color palette
- Map key is the armor material that this trim material wants to override with a different color palette
- Map value is the name of the color palette that will be used when this trim material is applied to an armor piece with the corresponding armor material
- description which is a text component used for displaying the material name of an armor trim when hovering an armor item stack
- The style defined in this description is applied to the armor trim pattern description as well
EXPERIMENTAL FEATURES
The following changes only apply when one or more Experiments is turned on, either by activating the corresponding experimental data pack or by turning it on in the Experiments screen while creating the world.
- Added Smithing Template items
- Redesigned the Smithing Table
- Changed how Netherite equipment is crafted
- Added a new armor trimming system to visually customize your armor
- Added Sniffer mob and Torchflowers
- Added the Cherry Grove biome
- Added Archaeology
- Mob Heads can now be placed on top of Note Blocks without sneaking
SMITHING TEMPLATES
- Smithing Tables have been redesigned into a workstation for physical equipment upgrades and modifications
- Alongside slots for combining a piece of equipment and materials, there is now a required slot for an item type called Smithing Templates
- Smithing Templates define what type of upgrade you will be making to equipment
- It specifies both what type of items you can upgrade, and which ingredients are valid to customize the upgrade
- There are currently two categories of Smithing Templates: Armor Trim and Netherite Upgrade
- Smithing Templates are consumed when used to upgrade an item in the Smithing Table
- You can craft a copy of a Smithing Template in the Crafting Table with 7 diamonds + 1 block of material that the template is made out of + 1 smithing template, which will output 2 of the same Smithing Template
NETHERITE EQUIPMENT
- Netherite equipment crafting now also requires a Netherite Upgrade Smithing Template
- Netherite Upgrade Smithing Templates can be found randomly in all Bastion Remnant chests, and there is a guarantee of 2 in every Treasure Room Bastion Remnant
- This change was made for a variety of reasons:
- Increase the time players utilize Diamond equipment before Netherite
- Make Netherite equipment a more significant achievement in the game's progression
- Adapt Netherite more naturally into the new Smithing Table crafting system
ARMOR TRIMS
- You can now visually customize your armor with a variety of unique trims at the Smithing Table
- Armor trims are purely visual with no gameplay benefits, and can only be applied to Helmets, Chestplates, Leggings and Boots
- All trim patterns are visually the same on an armor's item icon, but the color will still change based on the trim material
- To check which trim pattern a piece of armor has, you can hover over it in the inventory
- Armor Trim Smithing Templates can be found all throughout the world, and each of the following structures contain their own unique Smithing Template:
- Pillager Outpost: Sentry Armor Trim
- Desert Pyramid: Dune Armor Trim
- Shipwreck: Coast Armor Trim
- Jungle Temple: Wild Armor Trim
- Ocean Monument: Tide Armor Trim
- Ancient City: Ward Armor Trim
- Woodland Mansion: Vex Armor Trim
- Nether Fortress: Rib Armor Trim
- Bastion Remnant: Snout Armor Trim
- Stronghold: Eye Armor Trim
- End City: Spire Armor Trim
- Smithing Templates are found in chests in their respective structure
- The Ocean Monument has no chests, Elder Guardians sometimes instead drop a Smithing Template upon death
- Some Armor Trim Smithing Templates are rarer than others, so be on the lookout for them to impress your friends!
- An armor trim has two properties: a pattern and a material
- The pattern is defined by the Smithing Template used to apply the trim, and represents the visual pattern of the trim
- The material is defined by what ingredient you used to apply the trim, and represents the color of the trim
- The viable ingredients you can use to define the color of your armor trim are the following:
- Iron, Copper, Gold, Lapis, Emerald, Diamond, Netherite, Redstone, Amethyst, Quartz
SNIFFER
- The Sniffer is the mob vote winner of Minecraft Live 2022
- Sniffers cannot be tempted or tamed
- Sniffers are passive, friendly mobs
- Sniffers sniff the air and occasionally dig for seeds, which produces a Torchflower Seed
- Sniffers can be bred by feeding them Torchflower Seeds
- The Sniffer is currently only available as a Spawn Egg in the creative inventory
TORCHFLOWERS
- The Torchflower seed can be planted on farmland and grows into a flower
- The seed can be used to breed two Sniffers
- The full-grown flower can be harvested and replanted but can also be crafted into a dye
CHERRY GROVES
- Added a new Cherry Grove biome, with pretty cherry blossom trees
- The biome can be found in the mountains, in similar places as Meadows
- Added a new Cherry wood set, with all the corresponding wooden things you can make from it
- Cherry Leaves have pink particles falling underneath
- Added a new Pink Petals block with lots of pink flowers on the ground
- Each pink petal block can contain up to 4 petals
- Using bone meal on it increases the number of petals
- Placing a petal on a block increases the number of petals
- Mining the block gives you the number of petals in the block
ARCHAEOLOGY
THE BRUSH
- The brush is a craftable item you can use to brush things
SUSPICIOUS SAND
- Can be found in Desert Temples and Desert Wells
- This fragile block is hard to spot and easy to destroy, so be careful!
- Brushing the Suspicious Sand with a Brush will extract objects that were buried long ago
POTTERY SHARDS
- Pottery Shards have pictures on them
- They cannot be crafted and are only found by brushing Suspicious Sand
DECORATED POTS
- Crafting four Pottery Shards together will create a Decorated Pot with a picture on each side
- Brick items can be used instead of Pottery Shards in the Decorated Pot recipe
- The sides that were made from Brick items will not have pictures
- Smash a Decorated Pot with any block-breaking tool to break it apart and get the Pottery Shards back
- Hitting the pot with bare hands, silk touch tools, or any other item, will drop an intact pot instead
