Minecraft 26.2 Snapshot 3

We are back again with a third snapshot for 26.2, today we are bringing you sulfur spikes to test out! These sharp blocks grow in sulfur caves, adding a colorful, pointy touch to your builds! But watch out - falling sulfur spikes sure pack a puncture!

Happy Mining!

New Features#

Sulfur Spike#

• Is a new block that generates naturally on Sulfur blocks inside the sulfur caves biome
• Forms a stalactite if placed on the ceiling or a stalagmite if placed on the floor
• Can be combined to form longer stalactites & stalagmites
• Stalactites and stalagmites merge if the tips are next to each other, unless you press shift while placing
• Stalagmites will break if they're not attached to something below
• Stalactites fall down if not attached to something above
• Being hit by a falling stalactite hurts, and they are sharp!
• Thrown Tridents break Sulfur Spike

Changes#

• Updated the textures for the following blocks:
  • Chiseled Cinnabar

  • Cinnabar
  • Cinnabar Bricks
  • Polished Cinnabar

Sulfur Cube mob#

• Can no longer be picked up by Boats

Sounds#

Technical Changes#

• The Data Pack version is now 102.0
• The Resource Pack version is now 86.0

Data Pack Version 102.0#

Block Entity Data#

• The minecraft:bed block entity has been removed

Predicates#

Entity Predicates#

Entity predicate format has changed from a structure with multiple optional fields to one similar to data component maps.

For example, previously effects was an optional field:

{
    "effects": {...}
}

In this version it has become a component-like sub-predicate entry:

{
    "minecraft:effects": {...}
}

The main functional changes are:

• All keys in entity predicates are now identifiers
  • Since identifiers can be written without namespace (default to minecraft namespace), existing field names are still valid
  • Exception: field type has been renamed to minecraft:entity_type
• Unrecognized sub-predicate components are now rejected (previously unknown fields were ignored)

Existing type-specific sub-predicates have been renamed and moved to top-level.

• minecraft:lightning to minecraft:type_specific/lightning
• minecraft:fishing_hook to minecraft:type_specific/fishing_hook
• minecraft:player to minecraft:type_specific/player
• minecraft:raider to minecraft:type_specific/raider
• minecraft:sheep to minecraft:type_specific/sheep
• minecraft:slime to minecraft:cube_mob as it now includes Sulfur Cubes in addition to Slimes and Magma Cubes

For example:

{
  "type_specific": {
    "type": "minecraft:player",
    "looking_at": {
      "type": "minecraft:ender_dragon"
    }
  }
}

becomes

{
  "minecraft:type_specific/player": {
    "looking_at": {
      "minecraft:type": "minecraft:ender_dragon"
    }
  }
}

Added minecraft:entity_tags entity sub-predicate#

This predicate matches entity tags (i.e. ones set with the /tag command).

Fields:

• any_of - optional list of strings, if present the matched entity must have at least one of the listed tags
• all_of - optional list of strings, if present the matched entity must have all the listed tags
• none_of - optional list of strings, if present the matched entity must have none of the listed tags
