Gameplay

 * Target selectors
 * Targets entities
 * Can specify type of entity by entity ID to either include or exclude with  or
 * Example: - kills all chickens within a radius of 50 blocks
 * Example: - any entity within a radius of 5 blocks will be teleported five blocks in the air
 * Commands
 * Modifies NBT data at a specific coordinate. The,  ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  ,.
 * Compares two areas of a world
 * Example:
 * Functions the same way as or, but can only modify objectives with the   criteria (referred to as "triggers") and can only modify the score of the player running the command
 * Can be used by non-operator players
 * For a player to run this command, the trigger must be enabled for that player
 * will enable the specified player to use the specified trigger objective
 * Trigger availability is stored per player, per trigger
 * One trigger may be disabled for a player, but that player can use a different trigger
 * One player may be unable to use a trigger, but another player can use the same trigger
 * Disabled after the trigger has been used (must be re-enabled to use the trigger again)
 * Mostly for use with
 * Syntax:
 * NBT Tags
 * Mostly for use in adventure mode
 * Items with this tag display the names of the blocks that they can destroy in the item tooltip
 * Example: to give a diamond shovel that can break grass and sand)
 * Allows placing of certain blocks against other blocks in adventure mode
 * Example:
 * Allows hiding of certain parts of the tooltip
 * Bit field determining which parts of the tooltip to hide on an item. 1 for, 2 for  , 4 for  , 8 for  , 16 for  , and 32 for various other information (including potion effects,  , written book   and  ,  , and  ).
 * Examples: Setting bit field to 3 would hide both  and   tags, and setting to 63 would hide everything.
 * The number of ticks before an item entity can be picked up.
 * Set to 32767 for items that can't be picked up
 * Option to show or hide all particles for a potion effect, while the 'Ambient' tag only shows fewer particles. Set to 1 to show, 0 to hide.
 * A way to lock containers from being opened using NBT tags
 * Mostly useful for adventure maps in adventure mode
 * Containers can be unlocked by clearing their string for Lock
 * Locked containers can only be opened while holding anything renamed to the given string, item is not removed on use
 * The lock can be completely removed utilizing the command
 * BlockItem instances can now hold a custom NBT tag that is merged into a block entity when it’s placed
 * Example:
 * Controls villagers giving xp for trading, set to true or false
 * Gamerules
 * Prevents command block output from being stored in chat logs. In multiplayer, also prevents player-initiated commands from being stored. Unrelated to commandBlockOutput, which is output into the visible chat.
 * Prevents death messages like "[player] fell out the world" from appearing in the chat.

 * The ability to iterate over every scoreboard player with
 * Added scoreboard objective types  and other colors (referring to team color, not team name)
 * Fake players with a name starting with # will never show up on the sidebar
 * New subcommands:  and
 * The  subcommand can apply arithmetic operation to scores (+ – * / %) and accumulate player scores
 * Example: adds every red player's count of kills on blue to the red team's score of kills
 * The  subcommand can be used to test if a scoreboard value is between a min and a max value
 * Example: checks whether the global score of the given objective is between 12 and 19, inclusive

 * Level V enchants can now appear on an item without the use of an anvil
 * Looting now gives an extra 1% chance of getting rare loot per level
