Java Edition removed blocks

This page documents an exhaustive list of blocks which no longer exist in current versions of the game.

Java Edition

This article is about blocks removed from Java Edition. For other removed features, see Java Edition removed features.

Outright removed blocks

Despite having notable unique functionality or a block ID of their own, these blocks were eventually removed by the game, or replaced by another block of completely different use.

Old Colored Wool / Cloth

See also: Wool

Added in Classic, wool had 16 colors. All colors minus white, were removed in late Infdev. With the introduction of Beta 1.2, Colored Wool was re-added, albeit with different colors, though some cloth colors were left behind.

Gears

Main article: Gear

A fully animated block, it was inaccessible and had no real use other than decoration.

Infinite water and lava source

Main articles: Infinite Water Source and Infinite Lava Source

These blocks persistently generated their respective liquid around them.

Locked chest

Main article: Locked Chest

A joke block, completely unrelated to the current ability to lock chests via NBT.

Shrub

Main article: Shrub

A block that appeared identical to the dead bush, although possessing a random offset and the drops of grass, as they shared a numerical ID. These were merged into the dead bush in 17w47a.

Blocks replaced by other blocks

These blocks were either made redundant by the later introduction of another block serving their exact purpose, resulting in them either getting merged into said block ID or simply removed from the game, or were simultaneously renamed and retextured while retaining an identical core functionality.

Rose

Main article: Rose

The roses were blocks, that could be crafted into 2 rose red. They were added in 0.0.20a and they were renamed to poppy in 13w36a.

Generic dead coral block

Main article: Coral Block

In snapshot 18w09a, all coral blocks had the same texture, colored differently. Because of this, there was only one dead variant needed. By the time of snapshot 18w10a, each color of the coral block had its own unique texture, but would still all die into the same generic dead coral block from the previous snapshot. The generic dead coral block was removed and replaced with dead variants for each color in snapshot 18w10b.

Powered comparator

Main article: Redstone Comparator

During the development for 1.5, the comparator at first used two separate block IDs to represent its powered and unpowered states, with name IDs unpowered_comparator and powered_comparator, and numeric IDs 149 and 150 respectively. As of snapshot 13w05a, the powered_comparator block was removed from use in the game, replaced by a powered block state on the unpowered_comparator block. It is removed completely in snapshot 17w47a for 1.13, as of The Flattening.

Grassless Dirt

Main article: Coarse Dirt § History

From snapshot 13w36a to 14w25a, a form of dirt called "grassless dirt" existed. It had the same texture as dirt, but would not grow grass. In later 1.7 snapshots, it would generate in Savannah M biomes. Grassless dirt dropped regular dirt even when mined with Silk Touch. It was later replaced by coarse dirt.

Blocks resulting from extreme data values

The majority of these blocks were likely never actually meant to exist in-game, and occurred only due to the game handling extreme metadata values as it would those in usually attainable ranges, resulting in strange blocks with traits arguably analogous to garbage data.

Leaves with data value 3, 7, 11, 15

From the introduction of leaves in Beta 1.2 onward to the Flattening of 1.13, leaves used numerical data values within the leaves block to hold their type. As only three species existed from Beta 1.2 to release 1.1, with data values 0/1/2 (and by extension 4/5/6, 8/9/10 and 12/13/14), a data value of 3, 7, 11 or 15 would produce an undefined leaf type. This block appeared identical to conventional oak leaves, but appeared to use the spruce tint.

These were substituted out of the game with the first 1.2 release snapshot, as jungle leaves from then on occupied that space in the leaves block.

Seamless smooth stone slabs

When new slab types were introduced in Beta 1.3, slabs with data values up to 7 that exceeded the value of the highest legitimately obtainable slab would use top on all faces.

Two of these were replaced by the brick and stone brick slabs in Beta 1.8 Pre-release, one was replaced by nether brick slabs in snapshot 12w49a for 1.4.6, and the last remaining one was replaced by the quartz slab in 1.5 snapshot 13w02a. The smooth stone block was effectively reimplemented later in 1.5 in snapshot 13w04a by making the upper eight stone slabs use the top texture on all sides (also introducing smooth sandstone and quartz as a result), but the slab version are no longer in the game.

Strange levers

These also had weird distorted models, and could be obtained by loading a world from 1.3 or later containing ceiling levers (0, 7, 8, 15) in 1.2.5.

Blocks in flower pots that should not be in flower pots

From 1.7 onward, as the amount of blocks that could be placed within pots exceeded 15, conventional 4-bit metadata values could not be used to store the contents of a flower pot, and as such a block entity needed to be used instead. This allowed any block (or indeed item) to be placed within a flower pot, but few of these would actually render with the block inside.

In 14w17a, almost certaintly due to changes in how blocks render with them being changed to use block models rather than hardcoded models, these odd pot variants simply rendered as empty pots with no further interesting quirks, aside from the fact that their "invalid" contents could be retrieved from the pot via breaking or later right clicking it. They were completely removed in 17w47a, which split the flower pot block up into an individual block ID per potted object and scrapped the tile entity.

13w36a

The first version to make flower pots use a block entity, the fact that flower pots could hold ferns bled over somewhat into its other damage values, allowing shrubs and grass to exist in pots as well. Also, cobwebs would render if placed in a flower pot, for completely unknown reasons.

• 

  /setblock ~ ~ ~ minecraft:flower_pot 0 destroy {Item:30,Data:0}

• 

  /setblock ~ ~ ~ minecraft:flower_pot 11 destroy {Item:31,Data:0}

• 

  /setblock ~ ~ ~ minecraft:flower_pot 11 destroy {Item:31,Data:1}

In order to be affected by biome coloration, potted ferns/grass/green shrubs needed to have a data value of 11 (the data value formerly belonging to the potted fern) – otherwise they would appear as their raw textures.

• Potted Gray Grass.png

  /setblock ~ ~ ~ minecraft:flower_pot 0 destroy {Item:31,Data:1}

• Potted Gray Fern.png

  /setblock ~ ~ ~ minecraft:flower_pot 0 destroy {Item:31,Data:2}

14w06a

In this version, a large amount of blocks now render if placed in flower pots via commands. In order to place these with commands, use the following command, with ITEM and DATA substituted with the appropriate values from Java Edition data value/Pre-flattening/Block IDs as neccessary:

/setblock ~ ~ ~ minecraft:flower_pot 0 destroy {Item:ITEM,Data:DATA}

Only blocks that are completely unique in their rendering are shown here; some visually identical blocks do exist that are not listed here separately, such as the early stages of both carrots and potatoes, or potted pumpkins and jack o'lanterns.

The blocks always appear as a cross shape based on their bottom texture. Blocks with translucency appear either completely opaque or, in the case of stained glass, most pixels are invisible.

Some blocks appear tinted by biome if their normal variants usually would be. As leaves were tinted as per their numerical data values, setting the number prior to destroy to 1 for specifically potted leaves causes them to be tinted with the spruce color, and setting it to 2 gives the birch color. 0 or 3 results in them being tinted per biome like oak and jungle leaves are.

14w06b

In 14w06b, likely due to the fix for MC-47469, an additional 57 visually distinct potted objects could be placed:

14w07a

14w07a introduced the iron trapdoor, which rendered in a flower pot.

• 

Removed in 1.8 (14w26a)

These existed due to the previous handling of block variations through metadata, rather than through block states or as separate IDs. Extreme values of these would produce unintended effects.

Faceless pumpkins and jack o'lanterns

It was possible to place pumpkins and jack o'lantern with no actual face using metadata values 5 and above. Their models became missing in 14w10a and they faced removal in snapshot 14w26a like other unintended blocks.

In 17w47a, the faceless pumpkin made a comeback as the proper, default pumpkin block, with the then-current pumpkin being moved to the role of carved pumpkin. The faceless jack o'lantern will likely not be reimplemented.

Faceless and exceptional furnaces

Furnaces (as well as lit furnaces) with metadata values 0, 1, 6, 7, 12 and 13 would have no faces, using the side texture for all orthogonal faces and the usual top and bottom texture on the top and bottom. Furnaces and lit furnaces with data values 8, 9, 10, 11, 14 and 15 would appear normal, but were probably not legitimately obtainable.

Unlike with many blocks, these need to be placed using external editors, as /setblock will always place a furnace which is within the normal range.

All of these invalid furnaces and lit furnaces lost their models in 14w10a, with the exception of the unlit furnace with data value 0, which kept the faceless appearence. The lit furnace with no facing direction regained its model sometime between 14w17a and 14w21b.

Six-sided blocks

A six-sided piston (top texture). A six-sided sticky piston (top texture).

The following blocks existed in the game at some point before being phased out with the advent of block states. Whether they will return is not known.

While the hay bale lost its texture in 14w10a like many other blocks, it took until 14w17a for the piston blocks to appear as missing texture blocks.

The six-sided pistons could be obtained without commands using special contraptions that caused pistons to be updated by other pistons in a special way.

Interestingly, other six-sided blocks resulting from similar circumstances such as wood and smooth stone were not removed, and were even given unique block IDs and made craftable in later updates.

Green shrub

Main article: Shrub § History

These blocks had an identical texture to the shrub and dead bush, with the main difference being that it was tinted based on the biome.

Unlike the usual shrub, its inclusion within the game was most likely unintentional, as it became present in the game only after 13w10a (as it crashed the game from 13w02a to 13w09c, and appeared identical to usual grass beforehand), and sported a missing texture after 14w10a like many other undefined blocks.

Overgrown cocoa

Cocoa has twelve possible block state combinations, as it has four possible orientations coupled with three distinct stages of growth. Before the introduction of proper block states, this therefore meant that twelve of the possible sixteen metadata variants were actually used, resulting in the uppermost four exhibiting interesting undefined behavior.

From their introduction up until and including 13w01b, they used the dragon egg texture, which makes sense as the dragon egg texture was directly to the left of the cocoa pod texture in terrain.png. From 13w10a up to 14w06, it appeared as a broken cocoa pod, and from then on up to its removal it used the missing texture.

Overgrown wheat

Because wheat has eight distinct growth stages, the other upper eight values went completely unused. As a result, for a relatively long period of time, wheat crops with such values would see vast unintentional changes, as the textures they would try to pull from would end up overflowing over to the next line of terrain.png.

This included the textures commonly speculated to be for chair and table blocks. Whether Notch was using extreme inaccessible wheat values as a way to test chair models is highly unlikely, although still possible.

Overgrown melon and pumpkin stems

Melon and pumpkin stems also have eight distinct stages of growth. However, instead of having eight individual textures for each of the eight growth stages, each stage reveals two more pixels of the stem texture from the top down, and the tint applied to the stem texture also changes. As a result, since the stems have eight unused upper values in addition to the eight lower used states, the upper states start pulling from the texture below the stem texture on the texture atlas currently in use, and they use extreme tints that cannot normally be applied in normal gameplay. Their wireframe hitboxes would also appear to extend above the bounds of the block when targeted, but attempting to target anything above the height of the block would result in the stem not actually being targeted.

Overeaten cakes

File:Cake Bites 7.png

There are six different states cake can legitimately be in: either intact, or in one of five progressively more eaten states, which was kept track of via block metadata like with many other blocks. Like with many blocks previously showcased, only some of these states were truly legitimately accessible. As such, interesting behavior is demonstrated by the inaccessible states.

Cakes with six bites, while obtainable now, were never actually obtainable in the game during the time when these odd overeaten cakes existed. Cakes with seven bites were completely two-dimensional, and cakes with eight through fifteen bites appeared especially glitchy, proceeding to invert themselves, such that their textures would be visible only on the inside rather than the outside, and these textures would be borrowed from adjacent spots of the texture atlas currently in use. Their wireframe hitboxes would also visually extend in this direction, but they would actually be able to be targeted only by aiming at the portion of that hitbox within the block the cake is really situated. Collision boxes for these are similarly odd.

Minor removed block variants

Certain blocks had removed variants with minor, but still notable, quirks.

Invisible stairs

Originally, stair blocks with data values 4 through 15 would be completely invisible and have no collisions the only indication of their existence being their full block hitbox outline when targeted.

In 12w08a, these data values would go on to be used for the newly implemented upside down stairs. Data values 8 through 15 would appear to just be duplicates of 0 through 15, and were probably unused in themselves until their removal. These last eight were removed in 14w26a, like other invalid blocks. They also never used the missing texture.

Wall sign with full block hitbox

Signs used block metadata values 2, 3, 4 and 5 to determine their facing direction. As a result, signs placed with data values 0, 1 or anything 6 and above would always appear facing south, and have the wireframe hitbox (but not physical collision box) of a full block.

These were probably removed in mid 1.8 like many other such blocks.

Invisible random ladders

File:Small Missing Texture Cube.png

Ladders also used block metadata values 2, 3, 4 and 5 to determine their facing direction. As a result, ladders placed with data values 0, 1 or anything 6 and above exhibited behaviour atypical of normal ladders. Notably, they would appear to readily switch what block face they were attached to (sometimes seemingly randomly, but could be controlled by looking at a valid ladder, in which case they end up switching to whatever its hitbox was), which could be seen through their wireframe hitbox and their collision box. Initially they would be full cubes.

For most of their existence they appeared completely invisible, although in 14w07a they changed to appearing as small missing texture cubes centered on the block. They became full missing texture cubes in 14w10a.

These were probably removed in mid 1.8 like many other such blocks.

Vines with data value 0 also appeared as small missing texture cubes, however they still exist in 1.16.3 (as vines with all states set to false).

Incorrectly modelled torches

When block metadata was still in use, torches used state 5 for normal floor attachment and 1, 2, 3 and 4 for wall torches. 0, 6 and 7 appear to be unused, and are visually identical to normal torches. 0 can only be obtained via external editors, and oddly not by setblock.

Torches with data values 8 and up appear to exhibit interesting behaviour: 8, 13, 14 and 15 appeared and behaved as normal floor torches. However, 9, 10, 11 and 12 would have the wireframe hitboxes of wall torches, but would appear as floor torches, causing the hitbox to be detached from the torch.

Redstone torches are affected in much the same way.

Loading a chunk with these in 14w06a causes a game crash. These became small missing cubes in 14w06b before graduating to full missing cubes in 14w10a until their removal in what is almost certaintly 14w26a.

Strange buttons

Note: due to the inconsistent nature of these blocks, certain details are not fully confirmed.

In 1.7.10, using commands to place a button with data value 0, 13, 14 or 15 will result in very odd behaviour. The button will appear as a full oak planks or stone block, until (possibly) another button is observed or an item of said button is obtained, at which point it will use item model of button. They do not appear to change shape when pressed in either case.

Much information regarding these buttons remains unknown as these are very inconsistent in their behaviour and also somewhat unstable, breaking frequently, and their behaviour probably also changes drastically per version. Despite never actually changing data value, they seem to differently register what block face theyare attached to each time.

What exactly the other data values of buttons were that were unused and eventually removed are unknown.

Bottomless and bricking hoppers

Hoppers with a metadata value of 1 or 9 would previously not actually appear to point in any direction. Like many of these removed blocks, they had a missing model from 14w10a up to their removal.

• Hopper (None) JE1.png

  13w01a-13w01b

• Hopper (None) JE2.png

  13w02a-14w08a

Using /setblock to place a hopper with metadata values 6, 7, 14 or 15 would crash the game and permanently prevent that world from being loaded, although it may be possible to recover using external editors.

Nether portal post

Main article: Nether Portal (block)

File:Portal post.png

In 1.7.2's development, nether portals placed with data value 3 resulted in a vertical nether portal beam block.

Boring variants

Prior to the introduction of proper block states, the 0–15 block metadata system applied to all blocks. This had absolutely no effect on the majority of blocks. All interesting cases are mentioned in above sections – those which remain are listed below.

All of these gained a missing model in 14w10a and were removed in 14w26a (with increasingly unstable behavior in 14w25a and 14w25b, usually causing game crashes when approached) unless explicitly stated otherwise.

There were a total of X of these boring blocks prior to their removal, listed in the sections below.

Removed in 1.13 (17w47a)

These were the result of block state hand,ing combined with the old block ID system, resulting in some odd combinations.

Redundant seamless double slabs

In 13w04a, double stone slabs were changed so that those with data values 8 through 15 would use the top texture on all six sides. This resulted in the return of the block which would several years later become smooth stone, and also introduced the smooth sandstone and smooth quartz blocks. However, as the smooth stone double slab block also housed the cobblestone, old (later petrified) oak, bricks, stone bricks and nether bricks slabs, these would also end up having "seamless" double slab variants which were visually no different from their normal double slabs or indeed their normal blocks. These blocks persisted up to 17w47a, where they were removed by the Flattening.

Snowy dirt and snowy coarse dirt

As podzol was a numerical variant of dirt prior to 1.13, the snowy block state it used also ended up applying to dirt and coarse dirt, with no effect. These were removed in 1.13.

Bedrock Edition

This article is about blocks removed from Bedrock Edition. For other removed features, see Bedrock Edition removed features.

Outright removed blocks

Despite having notable unique functionality or a block ID of their own, these blocks were eventually removed by the game, or replaced by another block of completely different use.

Block 253

File:Grass Block (item under) BE3.png

In early Pocket Edition, there existed a block which used model of grass block in item form. This block used the numeric ID 253.

It was removed in Pocket Edition v0.8.0 alpha build 2, likely due to item rendering changes in this version. Numeric ID now refers to hardened glass.

Block 254

Block 254 was used to store the item model of leaves for both the item and block forms, similarly to block 253, but also in block form tinted as regular leaves. Block 254 with damage values 0, 1 and 2 were tinted with
 #48b518,
 #619961 and
 #80a755, respectively.

Lava may be obtained [[renewable resource|renewably]] from [[cauldron]]s, as [[pointed dripstone]] with a lava source above it can slowly fill a cauldron with lava. === Natural generation === During world generation, lava replaces [[air]] blocks generated in [[cave]]s and [[canyon]]s between Y=-55 and Y=-63. [[Aquifer]]s are sometimes filled with lava below Y=0. Lava does not replace air blocks inside [[mineshaft]]s, [[monster room]]s, [[amethyst geode]]s, or [[stronghold]]s. Lava can also occur as lava flows from a single [[spring]] block, pouring down walls into pools. The spring block can be on the side of a cave, ravine, mineshaft, or stone cliff above ground. Lava also generates as small [[lava lake]]s, which can be found above Y=0 within any [[biome]]. Two blocks of lava can also be found in plains, snowy plains, and desert [[village]] weaponsmith buildings, or one source in savanna village weaponsmith buildings. Fifteen blocks of lava can be found in the [[end portal]] room of a [[stronghold]]: 3 along each side wall, and 9 below the portal frame. Lava also generates in [[woodland mansion]]s: two blocks of lava generate in the "blacksmith room", and 25 blocks of lava generate in a secret "lava room". In [[the Nether]], lava is more common than [[water]] in the [[Overworld]]. [[Terrain features#Lava sea|Seas of lava]] occur, with sea level at y-level 32, about a quarter of the total height of the Nether (as the usable space in the Nether is 128 blocks tall). They can extend down to about y-level 19-22. Lava also randomly appears [[Spring#Hidden lava|in single blocks]] inside [[netherrack]] formations. Lava is also generated as a single source in well rooms in [[nether fortress]]es. There are also large pockets of lava generated under y-19 and can reach all the way down to bedrock level. These pockets are generally over 12 blocks in height and often connect to a large lava lake on y-32; the size of these pockets in 1.18 can range from the size of a singular pre-1.18 ravine to multiple ravines combined. Lava generates as [[delta]] shapes, which can be found commonly in the [[basalt deltas]] biome. Lava also generates in [[ruined portal]]s and [[bastion remnant]]s. === Post-generation === Unlike [[Water#Source blocks|water source blocks]], new lava source blocks cannot be created in a space by two or more adjacent source blocks. However {{in|Java}}, if the [[game rule]] {{cd|lavaSourceConversion}} is set to {{cd|true}}, new lava source blocks can form in a similar way to water source blocks. == Usage == === Fuel === When used in a [[furnace]], a bucket of lava lasts 1000 seconds (100 items). === Burning === [[File:Inside Lava.png|thumb|What it looks like inside lava.]] [[File:Under lava fire resistance.png|thumb|What it looks like inside lava using Fire Resistance {{in|java}}.]] Most [[entity|entities]] take {{hp|4}} damage every half-second while in contact with lava, and are set on [[fire]]. An entity/player in lava will also have its {{code|remainingFireTicks}} set to 300, setting it on fire for 15 seconds. This timer is reset to 300 every tick that the victim spends in lava, so it will only start counting down once the victim leaves the lava. Once the victim does exit the lava source, it will burn for just under 15 seconds, taking fire damage 14 times. This is due to the fact that for the first tick outside of lava, its {{code|remainingFireTicks}} decrease to 299, and entities take fire damage when {{code|remainingFireTicks}} is a multiple of 20 and greater than 0. If the victim touches water or [[rain]] falls on it, the fire is extinguished, but the lava continues to damage them directly. In addition, a dense [[fog]] effect will be applied for players under lava to obscure vision. This can be slightly mitigated via the [[Fire Resistance]] effect. An entity/player moving in lava has their horizontal movement speed reduced by 50% and their vertical movement speed reduced by 20%. {{IN|bedrock}}, a player with the Fire Resistance effect or a total [[Fire Protection]] of 7 or higher does not catch fire. [[Vex]]es, [[zoglin]]s, Nether [[mob]]s (excluding [[piglin]]s and [[hoglin]]s), [[Wither|withers]], [[Warden|wardens]], and players or mobs affected by the [[Fire Resistance]] effect are not damaged when touching lava. The embers or fireballs that fly out of lava are purely decorative and do not cause fires or damage to entities. When rain falls on lava, the black ember particles appear more frequently. A player in lava lasts a few seconds before dying: ==== ''Java Edition'' ==== * 2.5 seconds with no armor * 3.5 seconds with full leather armor, no enchantments * 4 seconds with full gold armor, no enchantments * 4.5 seconds with full chain armor, no enchantments * 5.5 seconds with full iron armor, no enchantments * 10.5 seconds with full diamond armor, no enchantments * 11 seconds with full netherite armor, no enchantments ==== Bedrock Edition==== * 2.5 seconds with no armor * 3.5 seconds with full leather armor, no enchantments * 4.5 seconds with full gold armor, no enchantments * 5 seconds with full chain armor, no enchantments * 6.5 seconds with full iron armor, no enchantments * 12.5 seconds with full diamond armor, no enchantments * 12.5 seconds with full netherite armor, no enchantments If the player is wearing armor enchanted with [[Fire Protection]], they can last even longer. With the maximum bonus, the damage is small enough that the natural healing from a full hunger bar can outpace it {{only|JE|short=1}}, so a player could survive indefinitely as long as they have food and their armor holds up (non-netherite armor is damaged by lava). This maximum bonus can be obtained by wearing 2 pieces of armor with [[Fire Protection|Fire Protection IV]] and 1 with [[Protection|Protection IV]], or 1 piece of armor with [[Fire Protection|Fire Protection IV]] and 3 with [[Protection|Protection IV]]. ==== Fire spread ==== Lava can cause fires by turning air blocks to fire blocks. In order for air above lava to turn to fire, a block adjacent to the air has to be [[Fire#Burning blocks|flammable]], or one of the wood-constructed [[Fire#Non-flammable blocks|non-flammable]] blocks. Since catching fire depends on air blocks, even torches or lava itself can prevent a flammable block from catching fire. Additionally, not all flammable or wood-constructed blocks can be ignited by lava. The lava of any depth can start fires this way, whether or not it appears to have a current. Additional conditions must be met, depending on the edition of Minecraft. ===== Java Edition ===== {{FakeImage|align=right|{{BlockGrid|scale=2|L=lava|w=Oak Planks|p=Orange Stained Glass|s=Light Gray Stained Glass|wwwwwwwww|wwsssssww|wspppppsw|wwspppsww|wwwsLswww|wwwwwwwww}}|Example for JE. The orange area represents areas<br>where air could catch flame if the<br>gray and orange areas contain<br>flammable blocks. The wood<br>is all at a safe distance. }} Air block must be in a 3×1×3 area right above the lava or in a 5×1×5 2 blocks above the lava. Note that an air block in the 5x1x5 area will not catch on fire if the 3x1x3 area is completely filled, even if the latter is filled with flammable blocks. ===== Bedrock Edition ===== The block to be set on fire must be in a 3×3×3 cube centered on a lava block, above which there must be either air or an ignitable block. === Flow === {{See also|Fluid}} Lava flows from "source blocks". Most streams or "lava-falls" come from a single source block, but lava lakes (including the "flood lava" in the bottom 10 layers) are composed entirely of source blocks. A source block can be captured only with a [[lava bucket|bucket]]. In the [[Overworld]] and [[the End]], lava travels 3 blocks in any horizontal direction from a source block. Lava flows far more slowly than water (1 block every 30 game ticks, or 1.5 seconds), and sourceless lava flows linger for a short time more. In [[the Nether]], lava travels 7 blocks horizontally and spreads 1 block every 10 game ticks, or 2 blocks per second, which is half the speed as water in the Overworld. In all dimensions, lava spreading uses the same mechanic as water: for every adjacent block it can flow into it tries to find a way down that is reachable in four or fewer blocks from the block it wants to flow to. When found, the flow weight for that direction is set to the shortest path distance to the way down. (This can result in lava flows turning toward dropoffs that they cannot reach in the Overworld and the End.) Flowing lava destroys the following in its path: [[sapling]]s, [[cobweb]], [[tall grass]], [[dead bush]], [[wheat]], [[flower]]s, [[mushroom]]s, [[snow]] on ground (but snow blocks are immune), [[lily pad]]s, [[vines]], [[lever]]s, [[button]]s, all three types of [[torch]]es, [[redstone]], [[redstone repeater|repeaters]], [[end rod]]s, and [[rail]]s. [[Sugar cane]]s hold back lava, but disappear if the sugar cane's water source is destroyed by the lava. Lava also slows down entities, including those that are normally immune to lava damage. Using redstone wire, a one-block lava flow can be redirected by supplying power to the source block, which causes it to reset the flow toward the now-nearest terrain depression. It cannot, however, be reversed. This re-calculation is made because of the redstone wire when toggled changes the block from redstone (on) to redstone (off). Whenever a block updates on any side of the lava, the lava re-calculates where to flow, but does not cut off its current direction of flow. In Bedrock Edition using the /setblock command can be used to create stationary lava without the use of barriers. Flowing lava can push entities. ==== Flow arrangement tables ==== ===== Overworld and the End ===== {| class="wikitable" |+ | | | !4 | | | |- | | !4 !3 !4 | | |- | !4 !3 !2 !3 !4 | |- !4 !3 !2 !1 !2 !3 !4 |- | !4 !3 !2 !3 !4 | |- | | !4 !3 !4 | | |- | | | !4 | | | |} {| class="wikitable" |+ ! colspan="2" |Range !Height in blocks |- !1 |block |1 |- !2 |blocks |0.75-1 |- !3 |blocks |0.5-0.75 |- !4 |blocks |0.25-0.5 |} ===== The Nether ===== {| class="wikitable" |+ | | | | | | !7 | | | | | | |- | | | | | !7 !6 !7 | | | | | |- | | | | !7 !6 !5 !6 !7 | | | | |- | | | !7 !6 !5 !4 !5 !6 !7 | | | |- | | !7 !6 !5 !4 !3 !4 !5 !6 !7 | | |- | !7 !6 !5 !4 !3 !2 !3 !4 !5 !6 !7 | |- !7 !6 !5 !4 !3 !2 !1 !2 !3 !4 !5 !6 !7 |- | !7 !6 !5 !4 !3 !2 !3 !4 !5 !6 !7 | |- | | !7 !6 !5 !4 !3 !4 !5 !6 !7 | | |- | | | !7 !6 !5 !4 !5 !6 !7 | | | |- | | | | !7 !6 !5 !6 !7 | | | | |- | | | | | !7 !6 !7 | | | | | |- | | | | | | !7 | | | | | | |} {| class="wikitable" ! colspan="2" |Range !Height in blocks |- !1 |block |1 |- !2 |blocks |0.75-1 |- !3 |blocks |0.625-0.75 |- !4 |blocks |0.5-0.625 |- !5 |blocks |0.375-0.5 |- !6 |blocks |0.25-0.375 |- !7 |blocks |0.125-0.25 |} === Lava and water === {{Main|Fluid#Mixing}} Water and lava can produce [[stone]], [[cobblestone]], or [[obsidian]] based on how they interact. Lava can also generate basalt when above soul soil and touching blue ice. === Light source === Lava blocks emit a [[light]] level of 15. === Other === [[File:LavaDropletsExample.png|thumb|If there is lava flowing above a [[block]], the lava seeps through.]] Lava above a non-transparent block (does ''not'' include stairs, fences, and slabs) produces dripping particles on the underside of that block. These droplets do not do anything other than warn the player that a deluge of lava lies above that block. The particles function identically to their water counterparts, except that they drip slower. Flowing lava can set off tripwires because it breaks placed string. Lava triggers a tripwire only once. Any [[item (entity)|item]] dropped into lava is immediately destroyed, except for [[netherite]]-related items. [[Lodestone|Lodestones]], however, can be destroyed by lava despite containing netherite.<ref>{{bug|MC-176618|||WAI}}</ref> Lava can be placed in an empty [[cauldron]].

Unlike a normal hopper, it pulls items from containers much more quickly, cannot push items into containers, can collect [[Item (entity)|item entities]] through a single layer of [[solid block]]s and is locked and unlocked via [[Activator Rail|activator rails]]. == Obtaining == === Crafting === {{Crafting |Output= Minecart with Hopper |type= Transportation |Hopper|Minecart}} Minecarts with hoppers can be retrieved by attacking them. By doing so it drop as an [[item (entity)|item]] and any other contents of the hopper are dropped as well. == Usage == [[File:Minecart with Hopper GUI.png|thumb|176px|The GUI of a minecart with hopper.]] Minecarts with hoppers are placed similarly to other [[minecart]]s. A minecart with hopper pulls in items lying nearby (within a range slightly larger than the cart itself), or inside a container directly above the minecart, at a rate of 1 item every [[game tick]] (20 items per second), eight times as fast as a normal hopper. It also picks up items that are lying on a block directly above the track. It does not push items into containers, but a hopper underneath the track can remove items from a minecart with hopper on the track. Ordinary hoppers can also drop items into a minecart with hopper like other containers, at the normal speed of 2.5 items per second. In Bedrock Edition, a minecart with hopper on curved rail pulls in items in a hopper lying in front of its moving direction and 1 block above if hopper's output funnel is pointed downward and no block is below that hopper.<ref>{{bug|MCPE-94293}}</ref> The hopper can be disabled by passing over a powered [[activator rail]], and can be reenabled by an inactive activator rail. An empty minecart with hopper can travel more than 85 blocks without stopping (as opposed to a normal cart going less than 12 blocks) from a dead stop using a 2 powered track starter even with another cart in front of them. However, the distance traveled by a minecart with hopper depends on the hopper's load. Using a 1 powered rail starter track, a minecart with an empty hopper travels 64 blocks until it stops (as opposed to an empty normal minecart going 8 blocks). The distance traveled diminishes non-linearly with increased hopper load; a minecart with a full hopper can travel only 16 blocks in this setup. {{See also|Tutorials/Storage minecarts}} == Sounds == {{Edition|Java}}:<br> Minecarts with hoppers use the Friendly Creatures sound category for entity-dependent sound events.<ref group=sound name=rollsource>{{bug|MC-42132}}</ref> {{Sound table |sound=Minecart rolling.ogg |subtitle=Minecart rolls |source=Friendly Creatures <ref group=sound name=rollsource/> |overridesource=1 |description=While a minecart with hopper is moving |id=entity.minecart.riding |translationkey=subtitles.entity.minecart.riding |volume=0.0-0.35 <ref group=sound>Relates linearly with horizontal velocity (max 0.5)</ref> |pitch=0.0-1.0 <ref group=sound>Will increase by 0.0025 per tick if the minecart's horizontal velocity is more than 0.01</ref> |distance=16 |foot=1}} {{Edition|Bedrock}}: {{Sound table |type=bedrock |sound=Minecart rolling.ogg |source=neutral |description=While a minecart with hopper is moving |id=minecart.base |foot=1}} == Data values == === ID === {{edition|java}}: {{ID table |edition=java |firstcolumnname=Item |showforms=y |generatetranslationkeys=y |displayname=Minecart with Hopper |spritetype=item |nameid=hopper_minecart |form=item |foot=1}} {{ID table |edition=java |firstcolumnname=Entity |generatetranslationkeys=y |displayname=Minecart with Hopper |spritetype=entity |nameid=hopper_minecart |foot=1}} {{edition|bedrock}}: {{ID table |edition=bedrock |firstcolumnname=Item |shownumericids=y |showforms=y |notshowbeitemforms=y |generatetranslationkeys=y |displayname=Minecart with Hopper |spritetype=item |nameid=hopper_minecart |id=526 |form=item |foot=1}} {{ID table |edition=bedrock |firstcolumnname=Entity |shownumericids=y |generatetranslationkeys=y |displayname=Minecart with Hopper |spritetype=entity |nameid=hopper_minecart |id=96 |foot=1}} === Entity data === Minecarts with hoppers have entity data associated with them that contain various properties of the entity. {{el|java}}: {{main|Entity format}} {{/ED}} {{el|bedrock}}: : See [[Bedrock Edition level format/Entity format]]. == Video == <div style="text-align:center">{{yt|I5etC7LeCac}}</div> == History == {{History|java}} {{History||1.5|snap=13w03a|[[File:Minecart with Hopper JE1 BE1.png|32px]] [[File:Minecart with Hopper (item) JE1 BE1.png|32px]] Added minecart with hopper.}} {{History||1.9|snap=15w43a|Loot tables are added;

Blocks replaced by other blocks

These blocks were either made redundant by the later introduction of another block serving their exact purpose, resulting in them either getting merged into said block ID or simply removed from the game, or were simultaneously renamed and retextured while retaining an identical core functionality.

Rose

Main article: Rose

Roses in Pocket Edition had an exclusive blue texture. As a result, they were informally referred to as the "cyan flower", despite this never actually being an official name (the in-game name remained Rose for as long as it and item names existed).

In a video preview of Pocket Edition on the Xperia PLAY, a blue rose was visible. Jeb stated that they exist as a replacement for Java Edition roses, following some hardware problems.

Blue roses are not planned to be added in Java Edition, and they were replaced by Poppies in Pocket Edition v0.9.0 alpha. However, Johan Bernhardsson said they may return.

They were purely decorative, serving no other function. They could not be used in crafting in any way.

Blocks resulting from extreme data values

The majority of these blocks were likely never actually meant to exist in-game, and occurred only due to the game handling extreme metadata values as it would those in usually attainable ranges, resulting in strange blocks with traits arguably analogous to garbage data.

Seamless smooth stone slabs

Like with Java Edition, this block existed in the game at one point. It has almost certaintly been removed, but when is unknown.

Six-sided blocks

Bedrock Edition had a handful of versions of "pillar"-type blocks which used side textures on all six sides. These were effectively removed in an unknown version, forcing them to appear identical to normal such pillars, either by changing their models to that of the normal y-axis pillar or just directly changing them (which method was ized is unknown).

Mutilated piston

Piston with data values 6 and 7 (almost certainly analogous to Java Edition's six-sided pistons) existed for a time with this model.

This was almost certainly added alongside the usual piston blocks, but this is yet to be confirmed. When it was removed is not known, but it was sometime between 1.10.0 and 1.13.0.

Granite, polished granite and diorite bells

Upon their introduction to Bedrock Edition, bells using the textures of granite, polished granite and diorite also existed. They could only be placed by commands, but could also be found in villages.

It is extremely likely that these were the result of the bell being incompletely programmed. The bell can face four directions, and at this point there were four different types of bell (the stone bell alongside these three), which would correspond to the four orthogonal facing directions. Since at this point granite and diorite were stored as data value of stone, it seems reasonable to expect that these would result from drawing from that data value of the used stone texture. Attempting to place a bell with data value 4 or above would fail; there were as a result no polished diorite, andesite or polished andesite bells, as these would not have any facing directions to correspond to. As they later spawned in villages, this would also imply that these were intended to be directional bells.

Bell-less Block

There had been an unused bell which consists of the stand without a bell. This bell cannot be rung, but it will drop a normal bell when broken.

It was merged into the normal version of the block in an unknown update.

Locked Smoker, Blast Furnace, Lectern, and Barrel

There were also several unused blocks which were in a locked state. These blocks cannot be opened or used by the player (their GUI does not show up, but the player hand can still perform an action).

It was merged into the normal version of the block in an unknown update.

Smokeless Campfire

Campfires updated from beta 1.10.0 to 1.11.0 did not produce smoke particles because campfires in 1.10.0 had no functionality. Their difference in the code is not known.

It was merged into the normal version of the block in an unknown update.
