14w18a is the twentieth snapshot released for 1.8.

Changes

  • Pistons & slime block
    • Slime blocks will now pull blocks back and push/pull blocks beside them when moved by pistons[1]
      • Coded by KaboPC and Panda4994[1][2]
      • Up to 12 slime blocks connected to a piston in any arrangement can be moved as long as it is not attached to any blocks behind the piston
      • Follows all the rules that pistons follow, for example blocks which can normally be moved by pistons can be moved if attached to slime blocks
      • Allows for more contraptions, from new redstone clocks, moving devices, farming etc
    • Extending a piston with a slime block on top of it will launch the entity (mobs, players, items etc) into the air[3]
