Bedrock Edition unused features

This page is about features that were added to Pocket Edition, but have no actual use or are simply placeholders for new features.

Nether reactor core
The functionality of the Nether Reactor was removed in Pocket Edition 0.12.1. However, the reactor core block still exists in game, and can be obtained through inventory editing or by retaining it from previous worlds before the update. It now drops its ingredients, allowing players to recover them.

Glowing obsidian
Being a part of the nether reactor, glowing obsidian blocks were also removed in 0.12.1. It emitted a soft red glow at light level 12, and dropped a single obsidian when broken with a diamond pickaxe. It can only be obtained through inventory editing.

info_reserved6
info_reserved6 is an unused block present in Pocket Edition. It acted as a placeholder block for Fire between Alpha 0.3.3 and Alpha 0.6.1, due to a bug in fire spreading mechanics that caused fire to spread to any block. In-game, the block is referred to as ".name". In, fire was returned with fixed spreading mechanics, replacing it. Its data value, however, changed to ID 255. Currently, it can only be obtained through inventory editing.

Update Game Block
The Update Game Block is a placeholder block present in Pocket Edition. It is placed in the world when the game cannot recognize an ID as an existing block, and thus is normally unobtainable outside of inventory editing.
