Beta 1.6.6 added minor changes and was released to fix some of the bugs and crashes in Beta 1.6.5.

Additions

• Added Performance in Video Settings, Options Menu. Can be set to Max FPS, Balanced or Power saver.

Changes

• Bone meal can grow tall grass and flowers on grass blocks.
• Glowstone Changes
  • Changed the material of glowstone from "glass" to "stone". This means you need a pickaxe to get resources from it. This also means you can now place redstone, torches, levers, etc. on them.
  • Made glowstone drop more loot (2-4 glowstone dust).
  • Made the recipe sizes for creating wool and glowstone smaller (2x2 instead of 3x3).
• Boat changes
  • Boats float up to the surface quicker.
  • Boats falling down into water lose their vertical momentum much faster.

Fixes

3 bugs fixed

• Fixed beds not working very well in SMP.
• Destroying a boat will no longer spawn the player too low, causing them to sometimes fall through the ground.
• ⇧ Shift+clicking a tool into a chest no longer restores it to new.
