It is now time for the first Pre-release for Minecraft 1.20: The Trails and Tales update!
From now on, you should mostly see bugs being fixed. In addition to that, pre-releases don't follow the regular snapshot cadence of releasing on Wednesdays, so keep an eye out for the next pre-release.
As always, a big thank you to the community for your feedback, bugs reported, and awesome ideas throughout the snapshot series. Let the pre-releases commence!
CHANGES
- Colored Wool, Carpets and Beds can now be dyed to any other color
TECHNICAL CHANGES
- Added new damage types: outside_border and generic_kill
- Random sequences for loot tables are now deterministic
- Changes in server.properties encoding
- string data sources for the data command now accept negative boundaries, which are interpreted as index counted from the end of the string
DAMAGE TYPES
- Players outside the world border are now hurt by the damage type outside_border instead of in_wall
- Forcibly removing an entity using i.e. the /kill command now uses damage type generic_kill instead of out_of_world
LOOT TABLE RANDOM SEQUENCES
The game now uses named random sequences to deterministically produce loot for loot tables. Each random sequence produces a unique sequence based on the world seed and sequence ID, which means a loot table will produce the same results when ran with the same parameters in the same world.
The ID of the random sequence to use for a loot table is specified in a new field called random_sequence.
SERVER.PROPERTIES
- File is now read in UTF-8 initially, with previous encoding (ISO 8859-1/Latin 1) as a fallback
- File is now written with UTF-8 encoding
