!mp While playing on a LAN server, the non-host's inventory, when removed from a chest, repeatedly returns to the chest a few seconds later, even as items are being used in the world, disappearing from the player's hands or the world.

Problem: When you right click to leave the minecart, you get placed outside of the fenceline AND the minecartrail. No chance to get back in there and continue the ride.Not in english, but it shows exactly the problem in the first 5 min. KleineMax 15:35, 2 November 2012 (UTC)

undefined Powered Rails do not update correctly. If you power a powered rail again (like, if it is already powered over attached powered rails) it will not update the rest of the track if the next rail is already powered.

undefined When doing a setup like halfslab, anvil, halfslab, anvil, etc. when stepping from the halfslab to the anvil, it will cause the player to glitch down a little bit before going onto the anvil. As demonstrated in this video S1kBruZZ

a! If you put a block down and put half-slabs on the front, back, left and right of it and you sneak off the corner of the block, it is still possible to fall off the block. (I think this is major because you can do the same setup like, 200m in the air and you will fall down and die even though you are holding shift.) --KrapTV 22:18, 6 November 2012 (UTC)

As far as the bug is concerned, earlier yesterday on my survival village i made a map, then decided to expand it, it worked once, twice, but on the third time it did not expand, only wasted my paper (which since i had a sugar cane farm i had plenty of sugar canes for paper). I tried again and it worked correctly, i had no further problems with the map after that. Any clues? Trigger hurt 19:50, 5 November 2012 (UTC)

!mpMap (item) doesn't expand when I walk into unexplored territory. Further more, my icon on the map showing me where my character is doesn't rotate when I rotate, and instead changes into different colors and so forth, so I never know which way I'm heading until the icon moves after I've started walking. Everyone on my server is having the same problem. Haven't attempted to duplicate on single player.

undefined Hoes do not take damage from tilling, i tilled an entire plains biome with my diamond hoe and it took no damage whatsoever, still left in the untouched state. Feature or bug? I don't think hoes are not supposed to take damage... Map modded once before with toomanyitems, but the hoe is an old hoe that has been sitting in a chest for about 3 months now (real time). Trigger hurt 04:28, 4 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Nevermind, i used TooManyItems mod and discovered the hoe had negative data values, such as -32000, which gives that item 32000 uses before it actually takes damage. I probably had spawned a hoe holding shift+click with toomanyitems mod, which gives one an infinite stack/infinite damage tool/block/item and just don't remember doing so.

a When two or more items, i.e. diamonds, are near each other, some of the items may randomly become invisible, but are still there when you go to pick them up. I tried this with redstone dust as well, and some of the items were still invisible. It would look like there are maybe 10 or so items on the ground, but there might be a full stack. Note that this only happens when the items are thrown down individually. --Agent A 04:38, 6 November 2012 (UTC) (The items are supposed to stack, this is a new feature, not a bug)

Bugs Default Superflat world

undefined When generating a superflat world, it makes a part of the world Default, and spawning you on that area of Default. This is bad if you're not using cheats and playing on survival. It might not happen to you, because it is rare. Epicest_Gamer 06:53, 7 November 2012

Me and my freind were walking around looking around in a desert seeing aleast 5 villages and 3 pyrimads then it lagged so bad then My PC froze then said Minecraft had ran out of memory. I have no clue why this happened. I exited out of Minecraft and looked for the server, but it lagged so bad it exited the host, and he said when he leaves, the server is deleted.

! If several mobs are traveling in minecarts when a chunk is unloaded/loaded some of the mobs will freeze in place while others remain moving normally. Minecarts with frozen mobs will continue to travel while appearing empty but if you attempt to enter one the frozen mob will appear and pop out.

Sounds
Bugs

On PowerPC Macs (Dual G5, iBook G4, probably others) the audio samples play as distorted noise which sounds very much like 16 bit byte-swapped samples (i.e. the data is being decoded to little-endian format, rather than the PPC and Mac convention of big endian samples).

The .ogg files play correctly via other Mac apps so this is almost certainly an endian problem in the library bundled with the update. It is a serious problem because it renders the game unlistenable-to.

Previous versions of Minecraft 1.x played fine on the same hardware.--78.105.156.144 15:21, 31 October 2012 (UTC)
