Beta 1.16.100.52 is the third beta version for Bedrock Edition 1.16.100, released on August 19, 2020,[1] which added new commands, more parity features from Java Edition, technical changes, and fixes bugs.

Additions[]

Command format[]

/playanimation
  • Used to run a one-off animation.
/ride
  • Used to make entities ride other entities, stop entities from riding, make rides evict their riders, or summon rides or riders.
/structure
  • Used to save and load structures without having to use structure blocks.

Changes[]

Blocks[]

Brewing Stands
Farmland
  • Now gives itself when pickblocked, instead of normal dirt.
  • Can now be obtained using /give command.

General[]

Technical
  • Updated Actor Properties. Two fields that were invalid and appeared in some vanilla content will now give a content error. The field 'value' on minecraft:can_fly and the property minecraft:foot_size should simply be removed from any entity files.
  • Make boat use the Buoyancy Component. Added two new components, the inside_block_notifier component, which fires specified events when the actor enters or exits specified blocks, and the out_of_control component, which sets a corresponding actor flag, in order to make this possible.
  • Added error checks to parsing of minecraft shareables items. Displays content log if item name is invalid or the array is empty.
  • Attempting to load a custom material that is not defined no longer causes a crash. A proper content error is now thrown.
  • Exposed new data parameters to control the behavior of Drop Item For Goal. This includes: seconds_before_pickup, cooldown, minimum_teleport_distance, max_head_look_at_height, teleport_offset, and entity_types.
  • Exposed new data parameters to control the behavior of Harvest Farm Block Goal, including max_seconds_before_search, search_cooldown_max_seconds, and seconds_until_new_task.
  • Updated the format_versionfield in geometry, particles, and animation files to behave as entity behavior files do.
  • Aseprite
    • The UI now supports using aseprite JSON files for animations, which allows more advanced animations than simple flip books.
  • Format Version Checks
    • Updated the format_versionfield in geometry, particles, and animation files to behave as entity behavior files do.
  • SetBannerDetailsFunction
    • Now supports customizing non-Illager banners
    • Up to 6 patterns and colors can be specified.
