Gameplay
Bugs undefined This is my second report, please let me know if this report has even been acknowledged. Redstone circuits become unreliable over a certain distance. For example in 1.2.5 the max distance was 280 blocks, now its 150 blocks. I have a city on my server and this bug has caused rail way switching systems to stop working. It would be even better if the circuit distance could be expanded beyond 280 blocks, not halved. crisss994

a! Trading is sometimes underpowered. Buying 3 glowstone with 1 emerald just doesn't sound right. C ali nou - talk × contribs » 11:53, 31 May 2012 (UTC)

a! The enchanting system has always, and continues to be frustratingly unfair. sometimes producing Efficiency II or Knockback II when a level 30 enchant is used. Considering you need to kill THREE HUNDRED AND FOURTY-FIVE zombies/creepers etc., to get to Level 30, users are naturally in consensus that, to quote Yahtzee Croshaw, the ratio of difficulty to find versus actual usefulness is completely arbitrary. While we respect the mystique Mojang have tried to create about enchanting, the numbers need serious review. Kizzycocoa

Blocks
Bugs undefined When placing a wire from a tripwire on the ground and placing another one ontop of that one and removing the bottom one, you have a flying tripwire. When placing a block under it, the tripwire wire drops itself.

undefined When flowing liquids hit a tripwire, it turns into a source block.

undefined When you push a tripwire with a piston, the piston's head disappears.
 * It transforms into a piston facing downwards --RedMser 10:25, 31 May 2012 (UTC)

undefined Pumpkins equipped in the helmet slot will be side-ways [discovered in creative]
 * Confirmed in single player ---RedMser 10:05, 31 May 2012 (UTC)

undefined If a piece of string from a tripwire is destroyed and quickly replaced with a block, its 'off'-pulse will replace the placed block's extra data value with 0, enabling a similar exploit to the block transmuter. Demonstration video -- Defmenge 11:10, 31 May 2012 (UTC)

undefined When breaking a furnace with smelted items in, the player receives no experience.

A The hitbox for placed string is very large. It should be scaled down to fit the actual size of the item, similar to fences.
 * It's intentionally large to help you build from the sides of it. It scales down to the real size when the wire is hooked up in both sides. If it always used that normal hitbox, it'd be extremely frustrating to build with. Dinnerbone 11:26, 31 May 2012 (UTC)

Bugs !The magma cube's jumping animation is missing.

!When there is a thunderstorm the sky does not darken.

!When rain/snow starts, then no starting animation is done. For reference, in 1.2.x single player downfall starts by slowly fading in. The same applies when weather stops.

Bugs undefined In the cheats menu, the game doesn't pause
 * "Cheats menu"? I'm going to need clarification here. Dinnerbone 11:27, 31 May 2012 (UTC)

undefined Sometimes tabs in the creative inventory will darken randomly.

undefined If you leave items in the second slot while trading you lose them after you closed the menu (finished trading).

undefined In Creative Mode, the Destroy Item tooltip appears when mouse is over the end of the scroll bar. --Txtsd 11:33, 31 May 2012 (UTC)

Language/Text Files
Bugs undefined In Australian English, Emerald Ore, Spawn Pig, Spawn Spider, Furnace, Boat, Lava Bucket, Raw Chicken, Cooked Chicken, Spawn Wolf, Spawn Ocelot and Music Disc are labelled as Ender Chest, Spawn Mutant Kangaroo, Spawn Deadly Spider, Stove, Surfboard, jarate (IDK what this means), Raw Cockatiel, Barbecued Cockatiel, Spawn Dingo, Spawn Wild Cat and Didgeridoo respectively. I think this maybe a joke but that's for Mojang to decide. Annoyances a Slabs crafted from cobblestone are called "Cobblestone Slabs", but stairs crafted from cobblestone are called "Stone Stairs".
