Minecraft Snapshot 25w43a | Minecraft

In today’s snapshot we’ve got some changes to the spear and its unique Lunge enchantment! Spears will now deal more damage with the charge attack, and using the charge attack provides some visual feedback, so you’ll know when you’ve landed your target! The Lunge enchantment is also getting some changes – instead of consuming weapon durability, the Lunge enchantment will consume hunger points based on the enchantment’s level. So pack those potatoes before you charge into the fray!

Happy mining!

New Features

Spear Weapon

• Spears now deal more damage through charge attacks dealt by players, but also mobs
• The Spear model is now slighly larger
• Spears provide visual feedback when they hit a target in the charge attack

Lunge Enchantment

• Using Lunge no longer causes durability damage to the Spear
• Using Lunge now consumes hunger points by exhausting the player, similar to sprinting or jumping
  • Level 1 Lunge consumes 3 hunger points, level 2 consumes 4 hunger points, and level 3 consumes 5 hunger points
  • Lunge can only be used if the player has at least 6 hunger points in their hunger bar

Changes

• The Nautilus and Zombie Nautilus can no longer be placed in boats

Technical Changes

• The Data Pack version is now 91.0
• The Resource Pack version is now 71.0

Data Pack Version 91.0

• World Border interpolation is now dependent on game ticks instead of real time
  • This means the World Border will no longer move when the game is paused
  • It will also respect any changes made by the /tick command
• Changed loot function filtered to allow running modification when predicate fails
• Added discard loot function

Commands

Changes to worldborder

• The time argument is now given in ticks instead of seconds

Loot Functions

minecraft:filtered

• Field modifier has been replaced with two fields:
  • on_pass – function or a list of functions to run when item_filter predicate passes
  • on_fail – function or a list of functions to run when item_filter predicate fails

minecraft:discard

• Replaces any item stack with empty one
• No fields

Enchantments

Enchantment Entity Effects

• minecraft:apply_exhaustion: applies exhaustion to the targeted entity
  • amount – Level-Based Value indicating the amount of exhaustion to apply
  • effective only on players

Resource Pack Version 71.0

Textures

• darkened_cutout_mipmap field of the texture section of *.mcmeta files has been replaced by a new field mipmap_strategy with the following supported values:
  • mean averages both color and alpha between groups of four pixels for the current mipmap level to generate the next mipmap level pixel. This was and stays the default strategy for most solid or translucent full block textures
  • dark_cutout is similar to mean, but blends colors in a way that makes the pixels bordering cutout pixels darker. This was and stays the strategy for leaves and Mangrove Roots. It simulates dark interior of the blocks
  • cutout is a new strategy that always generates a mipmap based on the original texture instead of the previous mipmap. Used for most cutout blocks that became mipmapped in this version
  • strict_cutout is a modification of cutout that uses stricter alpha cutoff value leading to the textures using this value disappearing at higher mipmap levels. Is used for flowers and similar blocks to avoid artifacts
  • auto is the default value and will make the game to pick mean for textures that do not contain fully transparent pixels and cutout for those that do
• All mipmap levels are once again animated for block animated textures
• Beacon and Redstone dust now support translucent textures

Sounds

• Added new sound event for the Nautilus:
  • item.underwater_saddle.equip
