!MP When pressing the List Player Button only a grey square appears where the list of players is supposed to be.

a When being pushed into a corner by water, you take suffocation damage.

a! Villager trading is still very much imbalanced. Non-farmables are undervalued, e.g. 4-5 diamond must be sold for a single emerald. Meanwhile, farmable items are overvalued, e.g. 19-29 paper for an emerald. With a sufficiently large sugarcane farm, I have been able to earn around 7.44 stacks of emerald in an hour, and while this is not in and of itself bad, these emeralds can be spent of many diamond items. The net result is a far bigger earning from farming than the most efficient mining practices, even with Fortune III. In fact, just one harvesting of the farm nets a player several doublechests of diamond items, which is very overpowered. In addition, many prices are nonsensical, e.g. iron and gold are considered equal in value, and mundane items such as compasses are considered more valuable than diamond tools. Server administrators are considering disabling trading and villagers on their servers because of the current imbalance, so this is a major annoyance. --WolfieMario 21:27, 30 July 2012 (UTC)

 * As a note to Mojang employees (Sorry, I'm just worried this'll get glossed over): the discussion contains various suggestions to help fix this issue. My own suggested fix is aimed at being fast enough to implement within a reasonable time frame before or after the release of 1.3 (basically just a switch from Jeb's original offer prices to player-created prices, without the addition or removal of any offers). --WolfieMario 21:27, 30 July 2012 (UTC)

Blocks
Bugs

undefined 1.3.1 02-08-2012 When in creative mode and placing any kind of stairs with out there being a block under it makes the block either not want to be placed (al do the player is not close to it) or almost every other block places it self on a different location or upside down. When placing stairs against a block even with a block under it places it 90% upside down. Placing half slabs sometimes make stairs that are with out a block under it turn around/flip up side down even when not connected to the half slab please fix this really annoying bug greeting Skarath

undefined Any kind of leaves farmed with a tool having Fortune will drop as "oak leaves" even though they look normal (so spruce leaves look like spruce leaves but cannot stack with others and they are called oak leaves in inventory).

undefined? Walking anywhere between the top of an ice block and the block above it makes the player use the ice block movement properties. For example, walking on a slab that is above an ice block makes you move as if you're on ice (also tested and confirmed on the lower half of a stair blocks, beds, cakes, pressure plates, and closed trapdoors). --User: Kris159 (talk | legacy) 23:25, 1 August 2012 (UTC)

a Mushroom blocks can't be harvested or placed properly, reverting to damage/data value 0, a block which appears to use the mushroom pore texture on all six sides. This makes it impossible to use the red, brown, and white mushroom block textures in creations without using pistons to push blocks around. It is also inconsistent with the expected behavior of silk touch: if silk touch is capable of harvesting a block, it should not transform it upon harvesting. Transforming a block upon its placement (which happens when placing mushroom blocks of any damage value, obtained through cheats available in vanilla) is also completely illogical and a roadblock to making things from the mushroom blocks. Perhaps mushroom blocks could be made properly harvestable as "Red/Brown Mushroom Top", "Red/Brown Mushroom Edge", "Red/Brown Mushroom Corner", and "Red/Brown Mushroom Stem", where the edge and corner blocks would be placed in a directional manner similar to pumpkins (upside-down mushroom blocks would not be available, as this would require splitting the current two mushroom block data values into multiple). --WolfieMario 13:44, 12 July 2012 (UTC)
 * I like fix you suggested. Totally support. 93.106.164.34 13:38, 18 July 2012 (UTC)

 * Dinnerbone said it's not a bug, but said we can put it under annoyances. Intended or not, it is annoying. --WolfieMario 20:23, 31 July 2012 (UTC)
 * I think a better implementation would be to have the blocks respond somewhat as grass blocks, growing the appropriate skin if exposed to an air block on that side. -- Featherwinglove 12:37, 27 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Good idea. --Steve G. Wood 19:06, 28 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Wouldn't that make all faces of a mushroom block that aren't touching another block use the "outside" texture? I would think that would cause problems with huge red mushrooms. E-102 Gamma 22:06, 30 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Maybe use an algorithm similar to the one the villagers use to determine a valid door? If it's a top exposed to air, it gets a texture. If it's a side exposed to air, and there are no more mushroom blocks within, say, 2 meters, it gets a texture. Stems are a separate block so they won't be affected by this and will just get the non-top texture. --5thHorseman 22:21, 30 July 2012 (UTC)

a! Signs often don't load properly and appear blank (only tested on SMP). When logging into a multiplayer server where there are signs over a large area, only the signs in the same chunk that the player has logged in at load correctly. Any signs that are further away do not load correctly and will appear blank 99% of the time. If the player logs out in a different chunk and logs back in again, the signs will load for that chunk, and the previously loaded signs in the other chunk will unload again. --Userof2 14:18, 1 August 2012 (UTC)

a Eating a food item (tried on bread and cooked beef) with almost full health results in actually eating two items from the stack, not one, which is unintended and slightly annoying.

a!At times, items would fall, but you can not pick up the item. I would run into the same issue before 1.3 in servers. Because of Minecraft now running on an Internal Server, it may be the same issue causing it.--Metroid95 21:27, 1 August 2012 (UTC)

World generation and switching worlds aWhen generating a new map, or switching from one world save to another, a lot of invisible underground structures and terrain are incorrectly rendered visible, instead of the surface terrain which should be rendered visible, in chunks near the player, this is really annoying and there exists that the possibility that inexperienced players could die due to fall damage from invisible surface terrain they fall onto due to the surface terrain in chunks next to the player not rendering at all in extreme instances. A temporary workaround is to exit and restart Minecraft every time you generate a new map or switch from one to another to limit this error, however, it is still possible that in some instances surface terrain will still not render properly resulting in chunks incorrectly rendering underground structures.

Sounds
Bugs ! - There is still an issue with missing pickup sounds, missing sounds for breaking certain blocks and missing footstep sounds on certain surfaces using OSX Mountain Lion. It is possible to fix the sounds by updating LWJGL (2.8.4) but doing so causes visual problems (rapid spinning when entering fullscreen and just perceptible flickering). This means either having to play the game without sound or not play at all because the flickering effects causes headaches. --Tseotet 19:37, 1 August 2012 (UTC)
