Additions[]
Main articles: Bedrock Edition 1.5.0 and Bedrock Edition 1.6.0
This version also adds features from Bedrock Edition 1.5.0 and 1.6.0.
- Agent Improvements (based on community feedback)
/remove
- Remove agents from the world
- Players will be able to show the agent coordinates on the HUD
/summon agent
now creates or teleports the executor’s agent to the executor.- New command selectors
@c
to target the executor’s agent,@v
to target all agents- Only players with the permission
worldbuilders
can target all agents. By default all users will havewordbuilder
permissions set to false.
- The usual type filters can also be used to target particular agents, so
/tp @e[type=Agent,name=Steve.Agent] @s
for instance would look through all entities for those of type agent whose name is Steve.Agent and teleport them to the executor. For more of a shorthand you could do/tp @v[name=Steve.Agent] @s
to target a particular person's agent that's not your own - Added spawn eggs for agents
- Library Beta
- Allows players to view and download worlds in-game without having to go to our website. Players will see a new button on their home screen called "Library" which leads to a list of dynamically generated "must have" worlds
- Heads-up-display
- Added mouse and keyboard control tips to the in-game HUD, to help players learn the how to move, break/place blocks, etc.
- On by default for teachers and off by default for students, and can be configured in the settings menu.
- "How to Play" menu
- Added Education content to the "How to Play" menu.
- Educator Resources
- A button on the home screen (which will show for teachers only) that takes users to a new resource on our website designed to connect them with the latest and greatest training, lessons and community content
Changes[]
- Coding
- Code Builder can now be used in the game rather than via a separate app. Players will be able to launch code builder using C if you are using a mouse/keyboard or by pressing the agent icon next to pause/chat on the top center of the screen while on touch.
- Code.org and Scratch will not be present at launch in-game. The Code Connection app can still be used to use these applications.
