Bats are passive mobs that spawn naturally in caverns or other large enclosed spaces. Bats are the only passive mob able to fly, and the only flying mob that naturally spawns in the Overworld. They will often emit a squeaking noise, but do not do many other things that can affect gameplay. They do not drop any items or XP when killed, making it the most 'insignificant' mob in the game.

Appearance

Bats are visually the third smallest mob in the game, being only slightly larger than baby chickens and Silverfish. They are hard to see in the unlit environment in which they reside. They have dark brown skin, wings and little feet.

Spawning

Bats are the only passive mob to spawn in darkness. They can also be spawned with their spawn egg.

Naturally spawning bats do not require a large cave. Though caves are the most likely location, they may also spawn inside an unlit house if its interior are large and dark enough. On superflat worlds, bats have spawned in unlit spaces as small as 1x1, possibly because the code that spawns them cannot find another suitable location.

Bats will not spawn on glass or slabs. Since bats can only spawn in low light, similar to most hostile mobs, the existence of bats may indicate an underground cave even on peaceful difficulty.

Behavior

Bats sleep during the day and become active at night. A bat will hang upside down when it is idle, but once the player approaches, the bat will fly away. Bats cannot hang on transparent or non-solid blocks. When placed in a minecart, bats can move the minecart around on their own.

A lot of times, Bats will squeak (similar to its real life function of echolocation). By listening for bat squeaks, the player might sometimes be able to find caverns, which can be useful for obtaining resources.

Although the bat is a passive mob, they still despawn when going too far away, like hostile mobs and Zombie Pigmen.

Bats do not seem to care about lava, and if there are lava streams coming from the ceiling, they may fly into one and burn up. Most bats, however, are safe from lava, both because lava streams are uncommon and because lava gives off light, and bats spawn in the dark.

A '''heart of the sea''' is a rare [[item]] that can be crafted into a [[conduit]].

== Obtaining ==
The heart of the sea must be found. It cannot be crafted or obtained by trading, making it a [[non-renewable resource]].

A heart of the sea is obtained from a [[buried treasure]]. The location is marked with a noticeable red X on a [[Explorer Map|buried treasure map]], which is found in [[Ocean_Ruins|ocean ruins]] and [[Shipwreck|shipwrecks]]. Feeding [[raw cod]] or [[raw salmon]] to a [[dolphin]] causes the dolphin to swim toward the nearest [[buried treasure]], [[shipwreck]], or [[ocean ruins]].

== Trivia ==
* Before the heart of the sea was added to {{el|be}}, there was an entry found in the buried treasure chest loot table named <code>nautilus_core</code>, which was later revealed to be the heart of the sea. Despite the name change, the heart of the sea continues to be referred to as the <code>nautilus_core</code> in most game files.

12w38aAdded bats. Bats tend to fly incoherently and sometimes run into lava. They do not drop any items when killed. Bats have no reaction to seeing wheat, and do not react to being right-clicked with it either. Bats can "trample" crops, causing them to drop as items, or revert farmland to dirt.
12w42aBats no longer "trample" crops nor do they activate tripwire or pressure plates.
1.4preAdded bat sound.

  • Since bats use echolocation to "see", they will notice players even when they are invisible.
  • Bats tend to fly to the east whenever given a choice.
  • Bats are now a neutral mob, but only in hardcore mode.(but sometimes they are neutral in offline mode)
  • Bats are one of the few mobs that fly, the others being Ghasts, Blazes, the Wither, and the Ender Dragon.
