Crashing/System
Bugs !! Using the beacon block (Work in Progress block), I made a pyramid of emerald blocks about 4 high, then the beacon block on top. Using it, Minecraft crashed, and I was unable to get the crash report. I re-entered the world, but before I could, it gave me an internal server error (this was on single player).

 * While my game hasn't outright crashed from using Beacon/Work in Progress blocks, they have caused the "Internal Server Error" problem which made the world inoperable. I was able to use MCEdit to delete the Beacon from the world, but I still can't access the world without the error. Luckily it was a test world I made, but the fact remains it breaks the world somehow. 12w32b might be required to prevent this from spreading. On a side note, I watched CaptainSparklez' video on the snapshot, and at the end he experienced the problem the exact same way I did: --MegaScience 02:24, 10 August 2012 (UTC)

Blocks
Bugs a! sp Silk Touch doesn't create grass blocks when mining, just regular dirt.

undefined Normal-sized mushrooms can't be planted outside at night. This is because the skylight level is always 15, even at night, and the reason for this is so crops and flowers don't uproot themselves every night. Perhaps there could be a workaround for this. It is intentional that they're not supposed to be planted outside in the daytime, but they don't even work at night. TorchicBlaziken 20:39, 5 July 2012 (UTC)

a cr The bug where you can't fly as fast through water and lava was fixed, but cobwebs still slow you down while flying in Creative mode. TorchicBlaziken 20:07, 14 July 2012 (UTC)

a When placing Mushroom blocks of a damage value greater than 0, it will revert to 0 upon placing. This used to happen with Monster Eggs, before they were tweaked in 12w17a to prepare them for inclusion in the Creative Mode inventory. This should be changed because the damage values of mushroom blocks are now available using cheats. We should not have to rely on pistons to place these blocks in Creative.

World Generator
Bugs

! When respawning to a new spawnpoint (/spawnpoint), most of the time you will fall through an unloaded chunk even if the chunk is loaded. You will keep falling through the void and you will keep dieing until you reload above the chunk or wait until the chunk loads.

undefined Just like abandoned mineshafts were before the floors were implemented, strongholds generate weirdly when they cross a ravine. The seed -623160645725253637 is a good example of this with a stronghold in a hole close to spawn which crosses an underground ravine. TorchicBlaziken 22:00, 4 May 2012 (UTC)
 * I think this is because strongholds generate before ravines so when the ravine generates it overwrites the stronghold blocks with air.

Annoyances a! On an old map (I have had this map since Beta 1.6.6 and have made so much progress on it I don't want to delete it) when I throw eyes of ender to bring me to a stronghold, they take me to a place where there aren't just no strongholds, I used a the zombe mod to see through walls and there aren't any underground occurrences at all (ravines, mineshafts, dungeons, caves, etc.) I think that to prevent this there could be a tag added to the level.dat like end_location or something that contains the coords of the end portal similar to how it contains the location of the original spawnpoint. --Caucow 03:50, 10 August 2012 (UTC)

undefined Something just happened... I found an enderman who was in his aggressive state, but wasn't attacking (I was in creative, but I don't know if it's just that mode). 50.46.250.128 18:07, 9 August 2012 (UTC)
 * I have noticed that since the 1.3 update, if you attack a creeper or skeleton, it will not chase you, but will still attack if within its attack distance. If you are within the attack range (8 for a skeleton, 4 for a creeper) they will attack. If you move outside the range that they are able to see you (16 for most mobs, not sure for enderman) they will go back into their peaceful state and not attack you even if you come back within their attack range. If you leave their attack range but not their player vision range, then come back into their attack range, they will attack again (very obvious with creepers, I have only noticed this while flying away from the mob). --caucow 9 August 2012

undefined Graphical glitch on the right side of creeper's head when hit (turns white). This also happens with villagers.

undefined Skeletons drop slightly damaged to nearly fully damaged bows. Intended ? --Kumasasa 18:24, 9 August 2012 (UTC) (edited --Kumasasa 21:12, 9 August 2012 (UTC))
 * proabobly because they use the bows before they drop them but i could be wrong can anyone corect me if im wrong?
 * The Skeletons were "freshly" spawned in a mob farm and they hadn't the slightest chance to fire a single shot. --Kumasasa 21:12, 9 August 2012 (UTC)
 * It's basically just to add an affect to the skeleton. It's not supposed to be taken literal that they used the bow before. Obviously in single player if they didn't attack you then their bow is fresh. Jeb just wanted to add some diversity into it.

undefined Mobs, including the player outside of Creative Mode, can breathe under lava. TorchicBlaziken 23:22, 21 June 2012 (UTC)

undefinedSpider Jockeys don't hold bows

undefined Villagers spawned using mob eggs don't get the "like/dislike" particles when hit or traded with. Intended?
 * Only villagers in villages like/dislike players. Give them a few houses and it should be fixed. Redstonehelper 19:56, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

 * Definitely not a bug; rather an intended feature. Didn't you read the change log? E-102 Gamma 00:52, 10 August 2012 (UTC)

undefined Not all armored mobs dropped their equipment. I've only gotten their stuff once or twice out of maybe 50 equipped mobs (zombies and skeletons). Is this a bug? Also, a zombie that had gold armor dropped 2 damaged armor pieces. Are they only supposed to drop equipment occasionally?
 * They're not supposed to drop all of their equipment every time. Probably not a bug. E-102 Gamma 00:52, 10 August 2012 (UTC)

undefined cr The Splash Potions of Healing/Harming I/II appear among the normal potions in the Potions menu, and the normal potions of Healing/Harming I/II do not appear at all. I'm not sure whether this is a bug or it was an intentional choice because they would have no use in Creative, but either way it actually WOULD be useful for placing in chests for adventure maps.

Bugs a! I have not been able to reproduce this, but when I openned the snapshot for the first time and tried to use some basic commands like /publish, /give and /gamemode in a Beta 1.6.6 singleplayer map it said I did not have permission to. I used the Open to LAN button in options and it worked fine. Still, the commands wouldn't though even after starting the LAN server. This would not happen after restarting my client.

a While this is not technically in the text files of the game, the names of some of the biomes (particularly the hills biomes and mushroom island biomes) are in CamelCase instead of using spaces. "Ice Mountains" and a few others prove that CamelCase is unnecessary and that it is perfectly possible to use spaces in those names. TorchicBlaziken 17:22, 7 August 2012 (UTC)
