Talk:Java Edition 15w32a

Another addition
I'm not sure whether it's worth mentioning or how to mention it, but it seems they've added a mechanism for generically "upgrading" the saved NBT data. For example, it could translate the pre-1.9 "Equipment" and "DropChances" tag into "HandItems", "ArmorItems", "HandDropChances", and "ArmorDropChances" so the entity class doesn't have to know about it.

 * We have in the past mentioned when new tags were added, so I think it is worth mentioning that it upgrades the old NBT as well, if only by saying "improved the way mobs handle held items and armor" – KnightMiner  t/c 03:05, 6 August 2015 (UTC)


 * Just to clarify: that particular translation was introduced in 15w31a, not 15w32a. Skylinerw (talk) 03:27, 6 August 2015 (UTC)
 * In 15w31a they added the backwards compatibility code to what MCP calls EntityLiving. In 15w32a they added a general framework for upgrading NBT and moved this translation into that, so EntityLiving doesn't have to know about old versions anymore. Specifically, this is classes 'oh' and 'oi' in 15w32a that have no equivalent in 15w31c. Anomie x (talk) 11:13, 6 August 2015 (UTC)
