Minecraft: Java Edition - 1.20.2 Pre-Release 2

We've now released 1.20.2 Pre-release 2.

RECIPE BOOK SEARCH REVERT

We received a lot of great feedback on the changes to the Recipe Book search in the last pre-release, as well as a number of bugs. As we do not have time to address this feedback so close to release, we have reverted the change for now, but we may look into this again at a later time.

CHANGES IN 1.20.2 PRE-RELEASE 1

• The Recipe Book search has been updated with the following changes:
  • The search will only match the beginning of any word in the item's name
    • For example, searching for "tor" will still show Torch and Redstone Torch but not Daylight Detector anymore
  • All recipes, including those that have not been unlocked, will now show up in search results
  • This will enable experienced players to find the recipes they are looking for (even if it hasn't been unlocked yet) without overwhelming new players
• Updated structure icons on explorer maps sold by Cartographers
• When villagers unlock new trades, the order of those trades in the UI is now always random instead of sometimes being deterministic
