Bug Labels:


 * [X] = Minor bugs.
 * [!] = Major bugs.
 * [!!] = Bugs that can crash Minecraft or a server.
 * [?] = Possible bugs/features that you and the community (on the discussion page) are unsure about.
 *  [U]  = Bugs that Jeb tested but was unable to reproduce.
 *  [F]  = Bugs that have been fixed in the next update.

Blocks

 * [?] When a water block is placed with empty space underneath, a column of source block is created under the water block. (Maybe an intended feature? Might help keep oceans from having random holes where land used to be.)
 * [!] Quitting to title menu while standing on a pressure plate will activate it forever. It must be rebuilt in order to make it usable again, this goes for items on wooden pressure plates too. [Verified]
 * [?] Water and Lava is place-able in 'The End'; Is this a feature or a bug? {madcrazydrumma}
 * [?] Flowers can spawn upon sand blocks but cannot be placed upon sand blocks by the player.(Only seen with yellow flowers)
 * [?] Patches of swamp water can be seen in the middle of a lake with no swamp land around it.
 * [?] Arrows do not get stuck in lilly-pads.
 * [?] Snow Golems still attack mobs in creative mode in which are neutral.
 * [?] right clicking on a water block with a glass bottle while having a full inventory will eject a water bottle
 * Lilly pads do not show up in creative Lilly-pads do appear in creative, are you using a texture pack without the lilly-pad texture?
 * [X] Enchantment Tables break with a single punch and are destroyed permanently, although they can be mined with a pickaxe.
 * [?] it is possible for a lilly-pad to spawn underground and on flowing water
 * Chests don't make sound when opened or closed. Intentional. Was fixed in an earlier release (bad idea!)
 * [X] This one is hard to explain with out pictures. Normally you need a water block next to a Sugar Cane for it to be able to place, well in water if there's a water block next to it (just like you would normally place water on the surface) you can place the Sugar Cane.
 * [X] If you place a Sugar Cane next to some water and than put any block around that Sugar Cane to block the water it will still stay up with out any water. If you place another Sugar Cane on top of it, it will break, not sure if it breaks if it grows or if another block is placed on it.
 * [?] If you leave a creative world, then rejoin it, any empty inventory spaces reset to the default blocks.
 * [?] When using ender pearls (done in creative), they do not fly to any "End" portals, but instead fly to the middle of rock with no portals/strongholds nearby.
 * [?] Shrooms pop out, when something is placed next to them.
 * [X] Dead bushes don't get placed in creative mode.

Crashing

 * [?] Some users report F11 causing a blackscreen crash. I have experienced this before usually fixed with pressing F11 fullscreen glitch possibly happens when in game full screen when to tab out users press F11 this can be avoided by alt + tab to tab out like that - alizter1234
 * [!!] When placing Enchantment Table, game crashes. (SMP tested only) The game does not crash when placing the Enchantment Table (Has been tested in both SMP and on MP)

Files
[!!]The fifth pre-release and any other pre-releases will crash when making a new world in singleplayer, leaving a notepad file on the desktop. Installing Java 7 will fix the problem. [X] On servers if the ops.txt file is missing the message generated states "Failed to load ip ban list" obviously copied from banned-ips.txt message and not modified.

Gameplay

 * [X] The terrain generator still places Lava-lakes under Water. (not a bug, this happens IRL)
 * [X] The terrain generator still doesn't generate beaches.
 * [X] The terrain generator doesn't smooth biome transitions.
 * [X] Sugar Cane seems to grow at a reduced rate.
 * [?] Shooting arrows in creative still depletes the stack (move if needed)
 * [X] Brewing any ingredient with a water bottle always creates a Mundane Potion that cannot be brewed with other ingredients. This is not true, you need to use Nether Wart to create an Awkward base! -- I've tested it myself, potions are fine!
 * [X] Seems that the rate which one becomes hungry is increased in Survival Mode, unsure if this is a bug or a feature.
 * [!] If your world was a creative world and you change it to survival, You can fly in survival mode with clicking space twice This is not a bug. There is no way built into Minecraft to switch game modes on an existing map. 1.9 prerelease 5 added a new abilities section to the level.dat, you need to use your NBT editor to turn off flight there in that section.
 * [X] Spiders will still attack you in Creative mode.
 * [?] Endermen will attack you in Creative mode if they bump into a wall and you are near them.
 * [?] In SMP, the server won't load the End or Nether; therefore making both worlds not generate (the End is just the 5x5 obsidian platform you spawn on).
 * [!] In creative, if you move the camera angles in anyway (Pressing "N" "M" "Y" "U" "O" or "H"), you can't control your altitude when pressing the space bar or shift. <-- This could be an anti-ghosting issue with your keyboard. <{Its not because I tried it with both a wired and wireless keyboard}
 * [X] When you use game mode changer to switch from creative to survival, you can still fly.
 * [X] Redstone does not detect when redstone powered items are adjacent and direct power to them while it does detect repeaters.
 * [X] Noteblocks do not receive power from adjacent blocks that are powered by redstone, while everything else does (when a noteblock receives power from a stone block and the stone block is the one receiving redstone power). Also to note that noteblocks also don't receive power when powered by a repeater that's powered by a stone block that receives power from a redstone line, and also they don't receive power from a redstone torch sitting on the side of a stone block that is powered by redstone.
 * [X] Singleplayer, changed difficulty from normal to peaceful. Saw hostile mobs disappear and then I got attacked by one of those magma things, not sure if it spawned or if it was already there.

Graphical

 * [X] Activate F3 and open Creative Inventory. If you scroll down the background of the CPU-Time-Usage-Table (right bottom) disappears. Seems to happen if you see the "Golden Apple" with its graphical effects in the Inventory. //Update: This happens with every animated item in your inventory.
 * [X] Swamps have a horrible transition from any biome to a swamp biome leaving some nasty looking colors. [example: ]
 * [X] Glass panels are still flickering in 1.9 pre 5
 * [X] Due to the new camera positioning keys, switching keys (such as I for inventory, instead of E) causes "unintended" camera panning from the player.
 * [X] If you eat zombie meat and get infected then switch to third person and facing the character the infected animation doesn't play. Tested with fancy graphics and the default texture pack.
 * [X] Swimming/sailing in the ocean causes the horizon to flicker obnoxiously (since 1.8)
 * [X] The wheel texture is flipped upside down on one side of Minecarts.
 * [X] When you die, the player model in the inventory screen also appears dead, blocking some parts of the inventory screen/slots.
 * [X] Glowstone behind glass is odd, the light shines through but the glowstone itself is almost black Example imgur.com/Df1Tt (also, sponge doesn't seem to work)
 * [X] While you're on bed, the experience level number doesn't black out.
 * [X] When underwater with the camera position changed, it resizes the blue square filter you get when being underwater.

Lighting

 * Redstone Repeaters placed between two full blocks are dark when placed along Z axis. They are properly lit when placed along X axis.
 * [!] Black and white flickering on all mobs and the player arm when playing Minecraft on Windows XP. Has occurred since 1.8
 * [!] Black an white flickering on chests and all placeable objects on Minecraft Windows 7. Occurred since 1.8

Maps

 * When you are flying on ice,you will see the sides of the chunks(on the ice)[It was on 1.6, 1.7.3, 1.8.1, 1.9pre5]

Mobs

 * [X] Spiders, endermen and silverfish will still try to attack you even if you have not provoked them in creative mode (other hostile mobs do not ).
 * [X] Squids will be facing up, and motionless (not including the squid arms animation) until approached
 * Also, other mobs do not disturb squids
 * [X] When a chicken looks at the player it moves its head down instead of up.
 * [X] Hostile mobs can hit the player from a further distance (IE a creeper explosion can be considered point-blank when 4 blocks away) been around since 1.9Pre4

Multiplayer Related
[X] When exiting a minecart after riding it, the player floats and can clip into blocks. This condition only disappears when restarting the Minecraft client.

Boats are horribly laggy. They work, just really really laggy.

Memory/CPU General
Same here, on Windows 7 64bit, unless you use a batch file.
 * [X] The Macintosh version uses 32-bit Java, even on 64-bit computers

Or if you only install the 64-bit variety, mate.

Lava

 * [?] You cannot take lava with a bucket in creative. When you try, the lava doesn't appear in the bucket. < Not a bug. You can spawn all items, so there is no need to collect the lava. The empty bucket is solely for removing liquids.
 * [X] When you are in lava, you can see through it.
 * [X] If you eat golden apples while in lava in the nether, then come out of the lava, you will instantly die, even though the golden apples kept you alive.

Water
This is an intended feature and appears in all versions of MineCraft before 1.9.5.
 * [X] Water falling directly onto rails/redstone/torches from above will destroy that item completely. Water flowing onto such a square from the side causes the item to become a drop.
 * [!] if you have a column of water running down a wall and you block the hole, the water below it keeps flowing, it's like all the water becomes source blocks
