A detector rail is a non-solid block which can transport minecarts and can be used as a switchable redstone power source.

Obtaining

Detector rails can be broken fairly easily by hand, but can be broken faster by using a pickaxe.

Usage

A detector rail can be used as a rail which can detect when minecarts are on it or how full container minecarts on it are.

Placement
To place a detector rail, use the "Use Item/Place Block" control (right-click, by default) on the face of a block adjacent to the destination space.
A detector rail can be attached to:
A detector rail cannot be attached to the side or bottom of any block, but attempting to make such an attachment may cause the detector rail to attach to the top of a block under the destination space. For example, if a fence is on the ground, attempting to attach a detector rail to the side of the fence will cause the detector rail to be attached to the top of the ground next to the fence instead.
When placed, a detector rail will configure itself to line up with any adjacent rails (including activator rails, powered rails, and other detector rails), as well as adjacent rails one block up. If there are two adjacent rails on non-opposite sides, or three or more adjacent rails, a detector rail will line up in the east-west direction. If there are no adjacent rails, a detector rail will line up in the north-south direction (but if a rail is later placed to the east or west, the detector rail will re-orient itself in the east-west direction even if it is already connected to another rail to the north or south). If a rail it would line up with is one block up, a detector rail will slant upwards towards it (with multiple options to slant upwards to, a detector rail "prefers", in order: west, east, south, and north). Other configurations can be created by placing and removing various rails.
Removal
To remove a detector rail, use the "Attack/Destroy" control (left-click, by default). Removing a detector rail by hand takes 1.05 seconds (or faster with a pickaxe) and it will drop itself as an item. A detector rail will also be removed and drop itself as an item:
  • if its attachment block is moved, removed, or destroyed
  • if water flows into the detector rail's space
  • if a piston tries to move it vertically, or if there is no valid attachment block at the new position after a horizontal move
If lava flows into a detector rail's space, the detector rail will be destroyed without dropping itself as an item.

Mobs will not try to walk across a detector rail (or other rails), but can be pushed onto them.

Rail

Main article: Rail

Detector rails (and other rails) act as "roads" for minecarts. A minecart that enters a detector rail's space from either end of the detector rail will continue to move, losing only a little velocity (which can then be increased again with powered rails). A minecart that enters a detector rail's space from the side will turn east or south (depending on the detector rail's orientation), or in the downward direction for a slanted detector rail.

Redstone component

File:Detector comparator.gif

Example for signal strength of a full minecart (27 stacks) and a half-full one (14 stacks)

See also: Redstone circuit

A detector rail activates when any minecart is on it (even if only a portion of the minecart is on it), and deactivates when no minecarts are on it. While active, a detector rail:

If the minecart on the detector rail is a minecart with chest or minecart with hopper, an adjacent redstone comparator facing away from the detector rail will output a power level proportional to the container's fullness instead, possibly power level 0.

Data values

Main article: Data values

A detector rail has the ID name minecraft:detector_rail and is further defined by its block data. A detector rail also has a block state which is expected to replace the functionality of block data in a future version.

Block data

A detector rail's block data stores its orientation and activation status:

Bits Values
0x1
0x2
0x4

A three-bit field storing a value from 0 to 5:

  • 0: flat track going north-south
  • 1: flat track going east-west
  • 2: sloped track ascending to the east
  • 3: sloped track ascending to the west
  • 4: sloped track ascending to the north
  • 5: sloped track ascending to the south
0x8 Set if rail is active.

=== Chest loot ===

{{LootChestItem|flint-and-steel}}

== Usage ==
=== Igniting ===

When {{control|use|text=used}} on the space above any solid top surface, on any side of any flammable block or any side of any [[obsidian]] block within a valid unlit [[nether portal]] frame regardless of if there is a solid top surface available, the flint and steel places a [[fire]] there.

Flint and steel can be used to light unlit [[campfire]]s, [[candle]]s and [[cake|cakes with candles]].

Flint and steel can be used to light [[nether portal]]s, as any fire existing within an appropriate [[obsidian]] frame will instantly be replaced with [[Nether Portal (block)|nether portal blocks]] that occupy the entirety of the frame.

Using flint and steel on [[TNT]] ignites it. The explosion damage dealt by TNT ignited with flint and steel in this specific way counts as the player's attack. If the player is {{Control|sneak|text=sneaking}} a fire is instead placed on the side of the TNT the flint and steel was used on.

A flint and steel can be used on a [[creeper]] to force it to explode. Explosions initiated in this way cannot be cancelled.

When powered, a [[dispenser]] containing flint and steel can place fires or ignite relevant blocks such as TNT or campfires in the space directly in front of it. This reduces the flint and steel's durability. A dispenser containing a flint and steel cannot detonate creepers.

=== Enchantments ===

Flint and steel can receive the following [[enchantment]]s:

== Issues ==
{{issue list}}

== Trivia ==

* In [[Adventure mode]], flint and steel cannot light fires, nor can it ignite nether portals (unless it has the tag {{cd|CanPlaceOn:obsidian}}). However, it can still ignite TNT and creepers.
* The name "Flint and Steel" may be misleading and is inaccurate considering the game doesn’t have and possibly will have [[Java Edition mentioned features#Steel|steel]] in the game and it's crafted with iron instead. This is similar to the [[Old Growth Taiga|Old Growth Pine Taiga]], as there are no pines in the game and they have [[Spruce|Spruce Trees]] instead.
**In real life, Iron can’t be used as a fire striker, so Mojang had to rename it to Flint and Steel so it makes more sense. This explains why it is called Flint and Steel, but there is no steel in the game.
**Steel was mentioned by Mojang, as a “stronger” iron, but shortly rejected, and there are no currently no plans to add it to the game.
* Flint and steel cannot light end portals.
* Flint and Steel is the first item to mention another item that is not in the game.
*In the April Fools Snapshot, [[Java Edition 23w13a or b]], one of the possible voted was “Flint and Steel can ignite any block”.

An '''egg''' is an [[item]] that can be used to craft [[food]] items, or thrown for a chance to spawn [[chick]]s on impact.

== Obtaining ==
=== Mob loot ===
{{see also|Tutorials/Egg farming}}
A [[chicken]] drops an egg item every 5–10 minutes. The theoretical average would be expected at 1 egg every 7.5 minutes, or 0.1333 eggs per minute.

A [[fox]] sometimes spawns holding an egg, which it always drops upon death. Alternatively, a player dropping a food item causes the fox to drop the egg.

=== Chest loot ===
{{LootChestItem|egg}}

== Usage ==

=== Crafting ingredient ===
{{crafting usage}}

=== Combat ===
Players are able to throw eggs and deal knockback to [[mob]]s (but not other players{{only|JE|short=1}}<ref>{{bug|MC-3179|||WAI}}</ref>{{until|JE Combat Tests}}), but no damage is dealt, similar to a [[snowball]]. Likewise, throwing eggs at [[neutral mobs]] provokes them. Eggs can also be fired from [[dispenser]]s and are affected by gravity.

=== Spawning chickens ===
When thrown by a dispenser or by pressing the {{control|use}} button, an egg has a {{fraction|1|8}} (12.5%) chance of spawning a [[chick]]. If this occurs, there is a {{fraction|1|32}} (3.125%) chance of spawning three additional chicks (on average, 1 out of every 256 eggs spawns 4 chicks). In other words, whenever an egg is thrown, there is a {{fraction|31|256}} chance of spawning 1 chick and a {{fraction|1|256}} chance of spawning four chicks.

The expected value of the number of chicks an egg produces is {{fraction|35|256}} or 13.7%. This means that on average, a chick is spawned every 7.3 eggs, a stack of 16 eggs spawns 2.188 chicks, and a full inventory including the hotbar and off-hand (<code>37 * 16 = 592</code> eggs) is expected to spawn approximately 81 chicks.

The '''nether star''' is a rare item [[drops|dropped]] by the [[wither]] that is used solely to [[Crafting|craft]] [[beacon]]s.

== Obtaining ==

=== Mob loot ===

The nether star can be obtained only by defeating the [[wither]] [[Mob#Boss mobs|boss]], which is created using [[soul sand]] and [[Head|wither skeleton skulls]]. One nether star is dropped each time; the dropped amount is not affected by the [[Looting]] enchantment. {{IN|java}}, nether stars dropped by withers take 10 minutes to despawn and are immune to explosions. {{IN|bedrock}}, nether star items never despawn, neither by time nor by explosions.

== Usage ==

The nether star has the same animated glint as [[enchanted]] items, [[potion]]s, and [[end crystal]]s.

A dropped nether star item cannot be destroyed by [[explosion]]s. However, it can still be destroyed by a falling [[anvil]],‌{{only|java}} [[fire]], [[lava]], [[cacti]], or [[the Void]].

It is used to [[Crafting|craft]] a [[beacon]].

'''Nether wart''' is a fungus harvested from nether wart crops and is used to plant them, as well as being vital in the creation of [[potions]].

'''Nether wart crops''' are found in [[Nether Fortress/Structure|nether fortresses]] and [[Bastion Remnant|bastions]] and is used to grow nether wart in [[Soul Sand|soul sand]].

== Obtaining ==
=== Breaking ===
Nether wart can be mined instantly with any tool. A fully mature nether wart crop yields 2–4 nether wart. This is increased by one for each level of [[Fortune]], this allows for a maximum of 7 nether warts dropping from one crop. Less mature stages drop one nether wart, even with the Fortune enchantment.

=== Natural generation ===
Nether wart can generate in [[nether fortress]]es in [[soul sand]] gardens around stairwells. Nether wart can also generate in the courtyards of housing unit [[bastion remnant]]s. Due to only spawning in these specific structures, it's entirely possible for a nether fortress or bastion remnant to generate without nether wart (though they may still appear in the chests that generate in the fortress).

=== Chest loot ===
{{LootChestItem|nether-wart}}

== Usage == 

=== Brewing ingredient ===
Nether wart's primary purpose is to [[brew]] the [[Potion|awkward potion]], the base for all potions, but optional for Weakness.

  |showname=1
  |Nether Wart
  |Awkward Potion
  |base=Water Bottle
}}

=== Crafting ingredient ===

{{crafting usage}}

=== Trading ===

Master-level cleric [[villager]]s buy 22 nether warts for an [[emerald]] as part of their trades.

=== Farming ===
{{main|Tutorials/Nether Wart farming}}
When planted on [[soul sand]], nether wart grows through four stages, though the middle two stages use the same texture (the hitbox of stage 3 is three pixels taller). {{IN|java}}, the exact age can be seen using the [[debug screen]], and the ages range from 0 to 3. Each random tick, nether wart has a 10% chance of growing one stage. At default random tick speed, each nether wart grows one age step approximately every {{convert|13653|ticks|minutes}} on average, and fully grows from planting to harvest every {{convert|40960|ticks|minutes}} on average. The growth rate is not affected by light or any other environmental factors. [[Bone meal]] cannot be used on the nether wart.

Nether wart can only be planted on [[soul sand]]. It cannot be planted on [[soul soil]]. It can grow in any [[dimension]].

Nether wart is ready to harvest when it reaches its fourth stage (age:3). Breaking a fully grown nether wart drops 2 to 4 nether wart, while an immature one drops a single nether wart. Using a tool enchanted with fortune increases the maximum number of nether wart dropped by 1 per level, for a maximum of 7 for a tool enchanted with [[Fortune|Fortune III]].

=== Composting ===
Placing a nether wart into a [[composter]] has a 30% chance of raising the compost level by 1.

== Trivia ==
* Nether wart's stage changes cannot be detected by a [[block update detector]], but can by an [[observer]] block.
* Unlike other crimson "plants", nether wart doesn't have a warped equivalent. This is also the case with [[nether sprouts]], which lack a crimson equivalent.

=== Upgrading ===
Like other diamond tools, a diamond shovel can be upgraded to a netherite shovel, although increased durability and resistance to fire/lava in item form are the only benefits. The shovel's performance as a digging tool or a weapon is unchanged by the upgrade.

==== [[Anvil mechanics#Unit repair|Unit repair]] ====
{{/Repairing with Anvils}} 
A shovel can be repaired in an [[anvil]] by adding units of the [[tiers]]' repair material, with each repair material restoring 25% the shovel's maximum durability, rounded down. It also keeps the shovel's [[Enchanting|enchantments]].

=== Chest loot ===
On <code>ancient_city/city_center/city_center_2</code>, they generate a furnace with a wooden shovel inside of it.
{{LootChestItem|iron-shovel,level-enchanted-iron-shovel,random-enchanted-golden-shovel,diamond-shovel,level-enchanted-diamond-shovel,damaged-random-enchanted-diamond-shovel,damaged-random-enchanted-diamond-shovel-2}}

=== Mob loot ===

==== Equipment ====
{{Main|Drops#Equipped items}}

[[Zombie]]s and [[husk]]s have a 0.67% (3.33% in Hard [[difficulty]]) chance of spawning with an iron shovel. They have an 8.5% (9.5% with [[Looting]] I, 10.5% with Looting II and 11.5% with Looting III) chance of dropping that shovel if they are killed by the player. The dropped shovel is usually badly damaged, and may be enchanted: 0%–25% on Normal difficulty and 3.125%–25% on Hard difficulty, varying with [[regional difficulty]], and enchanted as if on an enchanting table at level 5–22.

==== Raids ====

Vindicators and pillagers that spawn from raids have a 4.1% chance(5.12% on hard) to drop a badly-damaged iron shovel that is sometimes enchanted with a random enchantment.{{only|bedrock}}

=== Trading ===

Novice-level toolsmith villagers have a 25% chance to sell stone shovels for one emerald, journeyman-level toolsmith villagers have a 25% chance to sell enchanted iron shovels for 2 emeralds, and expert-level toolsmith villagers have a 50% chance to sell enchanted diamond shovels for 5 emeralds as part of their trades.{{only|bedrock}}

Novice-level toolsmith villagers have a 40% chance to sell stone shovels for one emerald, journeyman-level tool smiths have a 40% chance to sell an enchanted iron shovel for 7-22 emeralds, and expert-level tool smiths have a {{frac|2|3}} chance to sell an enchanted diamond shovel for 11-27 emeralds.{{only|java}}

The enchantments are the same as the ones obtained from an [[enchanting table]] at levels 5–19.

=== Villager gifts ===

{{in|java}}, toolsmith [[villager]]s occasionally throw stone shovels at players with the [[Hero of the Village]] effect.

== Usage ==

=== Digging ===

A shovel can be used to break some materials faster. When breaking a block, it uses 1 durability. For blocks that break instantly, it uses 0 durability.

==== Durability ====

Each different tier of shovel has a different durability:

{| class="wikitable sortable"
! Material
! [[Durability]]
|-
| {{itemLink|Wooden Shovel|Wood|link=Shovel}}
| 59
|-
| {{itemLink|Stone Shovel|Stone|link=Shovel}}
| 131
|-
| {{itemLink|Iron Shovel|Iron|link=Shovel}}

|-
| {{itemLink|Golden Shovel|Golden|link=Shovel}}
| 32
|-
| {{itemLink|Netherite Shovel|Netherite|link=Shovel}}
| 2031
|}

==== Speed ====

The following table summarizes the speed at which different quality shovels perform on different block types. Values with a red background indicate that no resource is dropped when the block is destroyed without a shovel. 
{{breaking row|Clay|simple=1}}
{{breaking row|Coarse Dirt}}
{{Breaking row|Concrete Powder}}

{{breaking row|Suspicious Gravel}}
{{breaking row|Suspicious Sand|foot=1}}

=== Dirt paths ===

A shovel can be used to create a [[dirt path]] by {{control|using}} (not digging) the shovel on any one of the following blocks, losing one durability point:
* {{BlockLink|Grass Block}}
* {{BlockLink|Dirt}}
* {{BlockLink|Coarse Dirt}}
* {{BlockLink|Rooted Dirt}}
* {{BlockLink|Podzol}}
* {{BlockLink|Mycelium}}

=== Campfire ===

A shovel can be used to extinguish a [[campfire]].

===Weapon===

Hitting a mob while holding a shovel is a stronger attack than barehanded. Shovels take 2 damage when used as a weapon.

====Java Edition====

[[Category:Java Edition specific information]]
Shovels have an attack speed modifier of -3, meaning they take 1 second to [[Damage#Attack cooldown|recover]]. Shovels deal different damage based on the type:

{| class="wikitable" style="text-align:center" data-description="Attack damage"
!Shovel type

|-
|{{ItemLink|Diamond Shovel}}||{{hp|5.5}}||5.5
|-
|{{ItemLink|Netherite Shovel}}||{{hp|6.5}}||6.5
|}

====Bedrock Edition====

{{IN|bedrock}}, shovels always attack instantly and do the following damage:

{| class="wikitable" style="text-align:center" data-description="Attack damage"
! colspan="5" |Attack damage
|-
|{{ItemSprite|Wooden Shovel}}{{ItemSprite|Golden Shovel}} {{hp|2}}

|{{ItemSprite|Iron Shovel}} {{hp|4}}
|{{ItemSprite|Diamond Shovel}} {{hp|5}}
|{{ItemSprite|Netherite Shovel}} {{hp|6}}
|}

===Enchantments===

A shovel can receive, or be found in an [[End City]] with the following [[enchantment]]s:

{| class="wikitable col-2-center col-3-right"
|+
!Name

Wooden shovels can be used as a fuel in [[furnace]]s, smelting 1 item per shovel.

===Smelting ingredient===

{{Smelting|showname=1|Iron Shovel;Golden Shovel|Iron Nugget;Gold Nugget|0,1}}
===Piglins ===
{{EntityLink|Piglin|Piglins}} are attracted to golden shovels and run toward any golden shovels on the ground, and inspect it for 6 to 8 seconds before putting it in their inventory.
