Gameplay
Bugs undefinedif you rename an block and place it, then mine it again. the name will be gone. for example I renamed enderchests to: "dropbox". when i place it and mine it with a silk touch it will say enderchest again.--League 20:43, 17 October 2012 (UTC)

undefinedspwhen a mob travels from the nether to the overworld and you follow it will spawn just outside of the portal and it will walk around. But if a mob travels from the overworld to the nether, the moment you follow them and spawn in the nether, they will be send back. very frustrating.--League 20:40, 17 October 2012 (UTC)

smpusing source material to repair anything on anvil is not allowed,continue doing this will waste exp.-Linglin
 * Anvil can repair items, though it will cost more each time you use it. Icelate 21:26, 17 October 2012 (UTC)
 * I mean this is a bug on SMP,I already tried it,you can take the repaired item,but you can't take it out,and your exp is wasted.-Linglin

undefined Right clicking a locked redstone repeater still changes delay. --☻♥☺
 * Shouldn't be considered as a bug. A locked repeater locks its state, not its delay. 189.100.118.225 20:41, 17 October 2012 (UTC)
 * It's good that way. Don't change, please. --188.238.241.251 21:02, 17 October 2012 (UTC)

undefined Locking repeaters has a race condition which can produce different results depending on the update order of the incoming signal. To reproduce, place 2 repeaters, 1 pointed at the side of the other. Connect the inputs with redstone dust. Place torches at different points beside the redstone. Some positions will cause the output to be powered, some will not. --216.36.24.111 01:45, 18 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Example: screen shot --EpeeGnome 02:20, 18 October 2012 (UTC)
 * I dont think this is a bug. from what the above screenshot shows, the power travels 3 blocks to get to one repeater, but only travels 2 blocks to get to the other, so it makes sense that one should turn on before the other.--JNRM3 03:01, 18 October 2012 (UTC)

a!When shooting an arrow in any gamemode, the arrow will travel roughly 3 blocks and seem to go straight down, and once it hits a solid block, it teleports to its correct position.--Codmikeg

Bugs undefinedsquid movement is broken and looks extremely laggy. it has been like this since 1.3--League 20:52, 17 October 2012 (UTC)

undefinedif 2 players have a tamed wolf, then you breed them to get a baby wolf, when you hit the baby wolf both of the parents will make the angry wol sound, followed by your own wolf not following you anymore. you can make it sit down but that's it.--League 20:59, 17 October 2012 (UTC)

undefined While riding a pig, looking down at a certain angle (so roughly half the pig's head is showing) will cause the pig to flicker (vanish and appear repeatedly).--68.9.221.35 04:36, 18 October 2012 (UTC)

undefined Slimes sometimes have the wrong size hitboxes. It makes it sometimes very hard to melee a large slime. --Masa 17:12, 17 October 2012 (UTC)

undefined when you are on a server and 1 guy has a tamed wolf, when you hit that wolf it will become agressive towards you and will make the angry wolf sound and he will continue to hit you untill you log out or he kills you, the angry wolf sound however, will keep playing even after you log out or he has killed you. there is no way to make it stop.--League 20:59, 17 October 2012 (UTC)

undefined A mob that has picked up items from the ground can still despawn like normal mobs, without even dropping the items. Is this intended? It means that if you die and a mob picks up your armor and sword, you are most likely to lose it unless another player is within 32 blocks of that mob until you get back. This seems quite harsh as it can practically mean instant gear despawn instead of the 5 minutes it normally has left. --Masa 17:13, 17 October 2012 (UTC)

undefinedsmpwhen you create a sign on a server and other people who are a certain number of blocks away will walk towards that sign it will appear invisible to them. when they relog the signs will correctly display their text. this also happens on lan servers except the signs will allways display for the host.--League 21:08, 17 October 2012 (UTC)

undefined An anvil inside the inventory or as a dropped item doesn't have any textures at the bottom. Picture. --☺ Sven ? ! 13:12, 17 October 2012 (UTC)

undefined The player's head orientation (or wearable item orientation) seems to get stuck to the one it was at when drinking a potion of invisibility. It resets when the potion effect runs out. This can be seen by wearing a pumpkin when invisible. Also, the weapon/tool use/hit animations don't work while invisible. (Sword block animation works, and the armor does move correctly when hitting, just the sword or tool hit animations do not work.) --Masa 17:23, 17 October 2012 (UTC)

undefined The mobs in mob spawners spin really fast. They start out at a good speed, but after a few seconds start spinning really fast. --☻♥☺

acr Building blocks and brewing items are a bit unorganized, example: ore blocks are not together, slab and stair blocks are scattered, and potions can be tricky to find.--Sickma 21:25, 17 October 2012 (UTC)

a Constantly having to place, remove, place, remove to get the picture you want is ridiculous. Can we just have right-click to cycle through the available options, or some other equivalent functionality, please?
 * Better yet a selection using something like the new pyramid functionality window would be great. Select the paintings you want through a window... Awesome.
 * Great idea!! Hope the devs agree.  Might fix the persistent painting bug as well.  :)  Pashta 20:47, 6 October 2012 (UTC)
