Java Edition unused features

This article is about features that are in the game, but unused. For unused ideas, see Java Edition mentioned features.

Since the beginning of Minecraft's development, there have been a number of features added to the game that have no actual use in Survival or in Creative. Some of these features are leftover from removed features, or simply placeholders for new features.

Note that this page only documents unused features that are currently in the game. See Java Edition removed features for features previously in the game that are no longer available.

Blocks‌

Seamless slabs

See also: Slab

All double slabs above data value 8 have the seamless tag. This displays the top texture of the slab on all 6 sides. This is only visible on four slabs: stone, sandstone, red sandstone and quartz. All other seamless slabs look identical to their normal counterparts. Breaking seamless slabs will yield two of their respective slabs, which will create normal double slabs if stacked. Seamless slabs can be obtained in versions 14w25a and below and 17w47a and above. In the upcoming 1.13 update they will be renamed to Smooth. They can be obtained by using the following commands:

Block	pre-1.13	1.13
Smooth Stone	/give <player> double_stone_slab 1 8‌	/give <player> smooth_stone‌
Smooth Sandstone	/give <player> double_stone_slab 1 9‌	/give <player> smooth_sandstone‌

It also serves as a [[cleric]]'s [[job site block]]. == Obtaining == === Breaking === A brewing stand can be obtained using any [[pickaxe]]. If mined without a pickaxe, it drops nothing {{in|JE}}, while it drops itself {{in|BE}}. {{breaking row|horizontal=1|Brewing Stand|Pickaxe|Wood|foot=1}} === Natural generation === Brewing stands generate in [[end ship]]s. They have two [[potion of Healing|Instant Health II potions]] in their holders. A brewing stand also generates in the basement of [[igloo]]s with a [[splash potion of Weakness]] in it. Brewing stands can generate without potions in [[village]] churches. === Crafting === {{Crafting |head=1 |showdescription=1 |B1= Blaze Rod |A2= Any stone-tier block |B2= Any stone-tier block |C2= Any stone-tier block |Output= Brewing Stand |type= Brewing |description=Can use cobblestone and its other variants interchangeably. |foot=1 }} == Usage == [[File:Brewing Stand GUI.png|thumb|right|176px|Brewing stand GUI {{in|java}}]] By default, the interface of a brewing stand is labeled "Brewing Stand", but this name can be customized by naming it in an [[anvil]] before placing it. Brewing stands cannot be pushed by [[piston]]s {{in|java}}. === Brewing === {{main|Brewing}} The main purpose of brewing stands is to allow for the [[brewing]] of [[potion]]s. Its interface can be opened by pressing {{control|use}} on them. Brewing stands need [[blaze powder]] as fuel. Each piece brews 20 batches of potions, with each stage of brewing counting separately. Unlike [[furnace]]s, there is no time limit; fuel is consumed only when there are [[Glass Bottle|bottles]] and an ingredient to brew into it. Brewing stands interact with [[hopper]]s as follows: * They accept brewing ingredients from hoppers pointing down into the top. * Any valid potion recipe can be preloaded for "hands-free" brewing of a complex recipe, with the [[Nether Wart|nether wart]] falling through into the stand for the first step. * Bottles and fuel are accepted from hoppers pointing into the side. * Finished products can be pulled out by hoppers below, but each stage of brewing counts as a batch of "finished" potions. {{IN|education}}, elements can be combined in the brewing stand to make the [[medicine]] potions: antidote, elixir, eye drops, and tonic. === Changing profession === If a village has a brewing stand that has not been claimed by a villager, any villager who hasn't already picked a [[job site]] block in the village has a chance to change their profession into cleric. === Light source === Brewing stands emit a light level of 1. == Sounds == === Generic === {{Sound table/Block/Stone}} === Unique === {{edition|java}}: {{Sound table |rowspan=2 |sound=Brewing Stand brew1.ogg |sound2=Brewing Stand brew2.ogg |subtitle=Brewing Stand bubbles |source=block |description=When a potion finishes brewing |id=block.brewing_stand.brew |translationkey=subtitles.block.brewing_stand.brew |volume=1.0 |pitch=1.0 |distance=16}} {{Sound table |subtitle=Cleric works |source=neutral |description=Randomly while a cleric is working |id=entity.villager.work_cleric |translationkey=subtitles.entity.villager.work_cleric |volume=1.0 |pitch=0.8-1.2 |distance=16}} {{Sound table |sound=Door close.ogg |sound2=Door open.ogg |subtitle=Chest locked<ref group=sound name=lock>{{Bug|MC-98316||Wrong subtitles caused by missing distinction}}</ref> |source=block |description=When a player attempts to open a brewing stand locked using the {{nbt|string|Lock}} tag |id=block.chest.locked|idnote=<ref group=sound name=lock/> |translationkey=subtitles.block.chest.locked|translationkeynote=<ref group=sound name=lock/> |volume=1.0 |pitch=1.0 |distance=16 |foot=1}} {{Edition|Bedrock}}: {{Sound table |type=bedrock |rowspan=2 |sound=Brewing Stand brew1.ogg |sound2=Brewing Stand brew2.ogg |source=block |description=When a potion finishes brewing |id=random.potion.brewed |volume=1.0 |pitch=1.0}} {{Sound table |source=block |description=Randomly while a cleric is working |id=random.potion.brewed |volume=1.0 |pitch=1.0 |foot=1}} == Data values == === ID === {{edition|java}}: {{ID table |edition=java |showforms=y |generatetranslationkeys=y |displayname=Brewing Stand |spritetype=block |nameid=brewing_stand |translationkey=block.minecraft.brewing_stand, item.minecraft.brewing_stand |foot=1}} {{ID table |displayname=Block entity |spritename=brewing-stand |spritetype=block |nameid=brewing_stand |foot=1}} {{edition|bedrock}}: {{ID table |edition=bedrock |firstcolumnname=Brewing Stand |shownumericids=y |showforms=y |generatetranslationkeys=y |displayname=Block |spritename=brewing-stand |spritetype=block |nameid=brewing_stand |id=117 |form=block |itemform=item.brewing_stand |translationkey=-}} {{ID table |displayname=Item |spritename=brewing-stand |spritetype=item |nameid=brewing_stand |id=431 |form=item |foot=1}} {{ID table |notnamespaced=y |displayname=Block entity |spritename=brewing-stand |spritetype=block |nameid=BrewingStand |foot=1}} === Block states === {{see also|Block states}} {{/BS}} === Block data === A brewing stand has a block entity associated with it that holds additional data about the block. {{el|java}}: {{see also|Block entity format}} {{/BE}} {{el|bedrock}}: : See [[Bedrock Edition level format/Block entity format]]. == Achievements == {{load achievements|Local Brewery}} == Advancements == {{Load advancements|Local Brewery}} == History == {{History|java}} {{History||1.0.0|snap=Beta 1.9 Prerelease 2|[[Cauldron]]s are implemented to be used to brew [[potion]]s, but are not available in-game yet.}} {{History|||snap=September 30, 2011|slink={{tweet|jeb|119762786619359232}}|[[File:Brewing Stand (pre-release).png|32px]] [[Jens Bergensten|Jeb]] reveals that brewing is done through a brewing stand instead of a [[cauldron]].}} {{History|||snap=Beta 1.9 Prerelease 3|[[File:Brewing Stand (empty) JE1 BE1.png|32px]] [[File:Brewing Stand (right) JE1.png|32px]] [[File:Brewing Stand (left) JE1.png|32px]] [[File:Brewing Stand (full) JE1.png|32px]] [[File:Brewing Stand (item) JE1 BE1.png|32px]] Added brewing stands. |Brewing [[potion]]s with brewing stands currently take 30 seconds. |When the first brewing stand was shown by Jeb, it had an additional 2D sub-stand for [[Glass Bottle|bottles]], but the stands for bottles are now designed in 3D.<ref>{{tweet|jeb|119763532312096769|I'm fully aware the potions are very thin (diet?), but it looks cute.

When placed as a [[block]], string becomes '''tripwire''', which can be combined with [[Tripwire Hook|tripwire hooks]] to form a tripwire circuit. == Obtaining== String can be obtained from [[drop]]s, breaking [[cobweb]]s, [[fishing]], [[bartering]], and as gifts from [[cat]]s. String can be looted from [[jungle temple]]s, [[desert pyramid]] chests, and [[dungeon]]s. ===Breaking === Tripwire can be {{control|mine|text=mined}} instantly with any [[tool]], dropping string. Tripwire is also removed and drops string as an [[item]] when: *[[Water]] flows into its space * A [[piston]] pushes it or moves a [[block]] into its space Tripwire is destroyed without dropping string if [[lava]] flows into its space. A [[cobweb]] drops string when it is broken in these ways (see also {{section link|Cobweb|Usage}}): *Breaking a cobweb with a [[sword]] *Pushing a cobweb with a [[piston]] *[[Water]] breaking a cobweb by flowing over it (flowing [[lava]] destroys cobwebs without leaving string) ===Natural generation=== Five pieces of tripwire generate naturally in every [[jungle temple]]. ===Mob loot === [[Spider]]s and [[cave spider]]s drop 0–2 string upon death. The maximum is increased by 1 per level of [[Looting]], for a maximum of 0–5 string with Looting III. [[Strider]]s drop 2–5 string upon death.

The chance decreases to 0.5% ({{frac|1|200}}), 0.4% ({{frac|1|250}}), and 0.3% ({{frac|3|1000}}) if the fishing rod is enchanted with [[Luck of the Sea]] at enchantment levels I, II, and III, respectively. ===Cat gifts=== {{main|Cat#Gifts}} Tamed [[cat]]s have a 70% chance of giving the [[player]] a gift when they wake up from a [[bed]], and the gift has a 16.13% chance to be a string. ===Bartering === [[Piglin]]s may [[barter]] 3-9 string when given a [[gold ingot]]. == Usage== String can be used as a crafting ingredient and tripwire can be used as a [[redstone circuit]] component. It can also be used to keep [[player]]s from ender-pearling through that space. === Crafting ingredient=== {{crafting usage}} ===Redstone component=== {{redirect|Tripwire|tripwire hooks|Tripwire Hook}} {{see also|Redstone circuits}} String can be placed as tripwire, which can be used to detect [[entity|entities]] as part of a tripwire circuit. [[Observer]]s can also be used with a tripwire to generate redstone signals. ;Placement To place tripwire, {{control|use}} string while pointing at a surface facing the space the tripwire should occupy. {{Schematic | caption = '''Tripwire Circuit''' |SB|th-$w|tw-$ew|th-$e|SB }} :In order to activate [[tripwire hook]]s, tripwire must be part of a "tripwire circuit": a straight line of [[block]]s consisting of a block with a tripwire hook attached to it, a "tripwire line" (1 to 40 blocks of tripwire), and a second tripwire hook attached to another block. ;Activation Tripwire activates if almost any [[entity]] ([[player]]s, [[mob]]s, [[minecart]]s, [[boat]]s, [[item]]s, [[arrow]]s, etc.) intersects its collision mask. The tripwire remains active until there are no entities intersecting its collision mask. Thrown [[potion]]s, some arrows, thrown [[ender pearl]]s, and thrown [[eyes of ender]] do not activate tripwire. ;Behavior An active tripwire updates adjacent [[block]]s (for example, it can activate a [[Tutorials/Block update detector|BUD circuit]]). Additionally, active tripwires that are part of valid tripwire circuits cause the attached tripwire hooks to activate (producing [[redstone]] power). Active tripwires do ''not'' themselves produce redstone power. When tripwire is broken (including by being washed away by spreading [[water]] {{in|java}}) after being part of a valid tripwire circuit, it activates the attached tripwire hooks for 5 redstone ticks (10 game [[tick]]s, or 0.5 seconds barring lag).

Bark blocks

See also: Log

Wood blocks with data values 12 through 15 have the bark texture on all 6 sides. These are not found naturally and cannot be crafted‌. When obtained in the inventory and placed, they will act like a normal wood block, placing with their axis corresponding to the face of the block clicked. They can be obtained using the /give command. They can be placed, but just like as normal (depending on the wood) log.

History

{{History|1.13

Old wood slabs

Before unique slabs corresponding to different wooden planks species were added, oak wooden slabs were treated like other stone-type slabs. They required a pickaxe to break, had a blast resistance greater than normal planks, and had stone sounds. They are still obtainable in worlds which had them in it previously. They are tagged as Wooden Slab, reflecting on the fact oak was the only wood species in plank form. It has a missing texture in the inventory.‌ In 1.13 snapshot 17w47a, this block is now called "Petrified Oak Slab" and it is available in the creative inventory and has a model.‌

Mobs

Giant

Main article: Giant

Giants are an unused mob added in Indev. They appear to be a giant zombie. Giants currently have no AI and they cannot spawn naturally because the game requires the light level to be both greater than 11 and less than 8. They can be summoned using the /summon giant command.

The Killer Bunny

Main article: Rabbit

The killer bunny is a variant of the rabbit that is hostile to all players and dogs. Its fur is pure white with blood-red eyes that are horizontal, compared to a normal rabbit's vertical eyes.

On peaceful difficulty, the killer bunny will not despawn, despite its hostile nature. It will still attack wolves and pet dogs. When it was originally added in snapshots of 1.8, it spawned as a rare type of rabbit, but it was removed before the final release.

The Killer Bunny can only be spawned with the /summon rabbit ~ ~ ~ {RabbitType:99} command.

Zombie Horse

Main article: Horse

Zombie Horses are a variant of horses that were added in 1.6, along with normal and skeleton horses. There is a zombie horse spawn egg available only in creative, but they remain unused in survival.

In addition to spawn eggs, zombie horses can be spawned with the /summon zombie_horse command.

Illusioner

Main article: Illusioner

The Illusioner is an unused Illager that was added in 1.12. They will attack players, villagers, and iron golems within a 12 blocks range. It will attack with its spells, and with its bow.

The illusioner has two spells: a spell that blinds its opponent, and a spell that summons duplicates and makes the illusioner invisible.

The illusioner has a face that is just like the face of a vindicator.

Illusioners can only be spawned with the /summon illusion_illager command.

Potions

Main article: Potions

The uncraftable potion is a potion added in the 1.9 snapshot 15w44b with no effect that is unobtainable in survival. It is also available in splash potion and lingering potion forms, as well as for tipped arrows. It serves as a placeholder for potions that have missing or invalid potion-effect tags, which they automatically default to.

It can be obtained using the following command: /give @p minecraft:potion 1 0 {Potion:"minecraft:empty"}.

Icon	Name	DV
	Uncraftable Potion	373
	Uncraftable Splash Potion	438
	Uncraftable Lingering Potion	440
	Uncraftable Tipped Arrow	441

There are also potions that cannot be brewed, and give you status effects not intended to be received by potions; e.g. Wither, Nausea. Again, these can only be obtained through custom potions.

Status effects

Main article: Status effects

Various status effects remain unused in the game. They can be obtained using /effect or potion NBT data, but have no way of being obtained other than that.

Bad Luck

Bad Luck reduces chances of high-quality loot.

Blindness

Blindness is a status effect which creates thick black fog around the player and prevents them from sprinting. As of snapshot 17w16a for 1.12, this effect can be obtained from an illusioner, though those mobs are also unused.

Health Boost

During the 1.6 snapshots, the health boost status effect was added. It boosted the player's hearts for a temporary time. It could be obtained from eating a golden apple.

In the next main snapshot, golden apples give the player absorption instead of health boost, but the effect was still left in the game.

In 1.9, the developers gave the Health Boost effect a new texture from its original golden heart texture, despite the fact that it is still not in use.

Saturation

Saturation is a status effect added in the 1.6.1 pre-release. It causes the hunger bar to refill by 1 () each tick.

Biomes

Main article: Biome

The following biomes remain unused since 13w36a and 18w08b. While they do not naturally generate in default worlds, they can be accessed using the Buffet & Customized world type.

Biome ID	Name and Features	Description	Images
20	Extreme Hills Edge Temperature: 0.2 Grass, Dirt, Stone, Pigs, Sheep, Cows, Wolves, Spruce trees, Oak trees, Snow (occasionally)	Similar to the jungle edge sub-biome, this sub-biome generates exclusively at the edge of extreme hills biomes (or any variant).	File:Extreme Hills Edge.png
	Warm Deep Ocean Temperature: 0.1 Pufferfish mobs, Tropical fish mobs, Warm underwater ruins, Sand, Kelp, Seagrass, Ocean monuments, Guardians, Elder guardians	Similar to warm ocean biomes, but twice as deep. Because they are a deep ocean variant, they can generate ocean monuments, resulting in the spawning of guardians, elder guardians, prismarine, and sponges.	File:Warm Deep Ocean.png

Sounds

Audio loops

Loops were unused sounds, found in the game files, and were possibly meant for when the player is in a specific type of location (i.e., in caves, woods, the ocean and beside a waterfall).

They were found in .minecraft/resources/sound/loops/, and could be converted to reveal four loops, of birds chirping, cave chimes, ocean and waterfall noises.

chunkinfo‌

As of 1.8 (14w30a), the file en_us.lang contains translation strings for a /chunkinfo command which does not exist in game. The following keys exist:

commands.chunkinfo.usage=/chunkinfo [<x> <y> <z>]
commands.chunkinfo.location=Chunk location: (%s, %s, %s)
commands.chunkinfo.noChunk=No chunk found at chunk position %s, %s, %s
commands.chunkinfo.notEmpty=Chunk is not empty.
commands.chunkinfo.empty=Chunk is empty.
commands.chunkinfo.notCompiled=Chunk is not compiled.
commands.chunkinfo.compiled=Chunk is compiled.
commands.chunkinfo.hasNoRenderableLayers=Chunk has no renderable layers.
commands.chunkinfo.hasLayers=Chunk has layers: %s
commands.chunkinfo.isEmpty=Chunk has empty layers: %s
commands.chunkinfo.vertices=%s layer's buffer contains %s vertices
commands.chunkinfo.data=First 64 vertices are: %s

It is unknown if this command is used by Mojang for development or was simply a dropped feature.

Paeonia‌

File:Paeonia texture.png

Main article: Flower

Paeonias are unimplemented flowers that were replaced by the two-block-tall peonies.

There was only one screenshot of the block released by Jeb. Its texture file can still be found; it is named flower_paeonia.png.

Purple arrow

File:PurpleArrow.png

See also: Arrow § History

Purple arrows were shot by skeletons in Survival Test and acted the same as regular arrows, and used a texture on the same sheet as the normal arrows, but the texture is not currently in use.

In 1.9, a new texture was added for arrows, causing the original arrow texture including the purple arrows to be entirely unused.

Ruby

See also: Emerald

File:Ruby (Item).png

On May 21, 2012, Jeb released a screenshot of himself testing the trading system. At this time, what would become emerald ore in 1.3.1 was ruby ore. The previous ruby texture remains in the ruby.png file. It is unknown if the texture will ever be used. Dinnerbone stated in a forum post that they went with emeralds instead of rubies at the last minute because he is color-blind and he had a hard time spotting the difference between ruby ore and redstone ore. The names "Ruby Ore" and "Ruby" are still in the .lang files.

Villager speech bubble

The villager speech bubble is an image that was added along with the villager.png file in the jar when the trading system was added. It showed a trade, where raw chicken could be sold to villagers for another raw chicken. Both raw chickens have the old texture. During an interview about villagers, Jeb offered a possible explanation: "We did some experiments with thoughts bubbles, but it didn't look good. So in the end, after I’d been lead on Minecraft for a year, we just decided to add an interface instead."

Since 1.9, the texture has been partially overwritten by the selection arrows.
