Melons are blocks that grow from planted melon seeds, which grow over time until they reach maturity, randomly spawning melon blocks on adjacent farmland (or dirt/grass). Destroying a melon yields 3-7 melon slices, and a maximum of nine with a Fortune tool. A melon slice can be consumed for 🍗, or be crafted into a melon seed to be planted as a new stem.

Crafting

Melon blocks can be crafted out of 9 melon slices.

You cannot reverse this to craft melon slices from a melon block. You must place the melon block and then destroy it to get melon slices back again. Melon slices are wasted in this process, as breaking a melon block only yields a portion of the melon slices used to craft the block.

Farming

For other types of farming see Farming (disambiguation)

To start a Melon farm, one must first find Melon Seeds, which can only be found in Abandoned Mine Shaft chests. You can also obtain Melon Slices (which can be crafted into melon seeds) from trading with villagers. Planting a Melon Seed places a small stem that will grow over time. Like regular seeds, Melon stems grow faster if there is one block of water within 4 blocks of it (but having water nearby doesn't affect melon spawning speed once the stem has fully grown). Once the stem reaches maturity (which can be instantly forced by the use of Bone Meal), the stem will spawn a Melon Block in one of the adjacent Dirt or Grass blocks every 1–30 minutes real-life time (0.05-1.5 Minecraft days) and visually connect to it (unless there is a Melon already next to it, then it connects to that melon instead and won't spawn any melons). Once a Melon has grown, the stem will not produce any further Melons until the existing Melon is destroyed. Melons will revert farmland below them to dirt when they grow. Once a connected Melon is harvested, the stem will be able to generate a new Melon block. A melon will not grow if the block directly above the stem is occupied by a solid block. However, Melons will grow if there is a transparent block above the stem.

For maximum melon per block yield, the following methods can be used:

% melon seeds    . farmland, dirt or grass    = water    ? any block (not air)

With all these, both farm blocks and seed blocks will be hydrated.
The top-left method has an efficiency of 48.88% which can be maintained by inverting the design when tiling the long dimension. The top-right is 48.61% efficient, while the middle designs are both 44.44% efficient. The efficiency of the bottom row designs vary. In 1.0 and below the top-left is only 38.88% efficient but can be tiled with the top-right to get a 48.76% efficient farm.
The percentages in round brackets are maximum efficiencies if there are no other farms adjacent to it, and have chance of growing melon outside of the farm area (meaning there is 1 wide dirt surrounding around the farm). But again, that's maximum efficiency, and it varies (if melon grows inside the farm area instead of using the new surrounding to grow, the efficiency goes lower).
Wheat could be grown in the spaces marked '?' to avoid wasting potential hydrated farmland blocks.

While all above designs use one layer, the most efficient, 49.38% farm can be created by using two layers. Design is based on the third design:

        x x x x % x x x x              % % % % ? % % % % 
        x x x x . x x x x              . . . . ? . . . .

x air (empty)

While this design has spots where you need to jump when made in larger scale, there is even cleaner design with same efficiency. In this design the water source must be isolated, so it would stay in 1x1 area and won't spread into '+' sign. It should be placed at least 2 blocks above the first farm layer, so it would be possible to place light source:

S water source block      = falling water

The position of the melon seeds (%) and farmland, dirt or grass blocks (.) in the 3rd and 4th layers can be swapped around as efficiency is not sacrificed, E.g.: still 44.44% efficiency for the 4th layer.


The above layouts are optimized for infrequent harvests, with plenty of time for the field to regrow in between. For frequent harvests, the following layout may be better suited; if harvested once per day-and-night cycle, it yields about 17 melons per harvest (as opposed to about 13 melons for the above designs):

Autoharvestmelonfarm

A basic Auto-Harvester Melon farm using Sticky Pistons

Melons are destroyed and drop Melon Slices when a Piston of any kind pushes it, leading the possibility for auto-harvesting Melon farms. A simple Auto-Harvester would be made by placing an up-facing sticky piston under each farmland block reserved for melons. When the sticky pistons are powered, they destroy all of the melons for pickup by the player. Using this technique, one can make a fully automatic farm, but it uses up some space, shown here.

History

Melons were first revealed in an IGN interview with Notch.[1]

The '''camera''' is an [[entity]] that is capable of capturing and storing images. {{IN|edu}}, it works together with the [[portfolio]] item to create collections of [[photo]]s.<ref>https://education.minecraft.net/support/knowledge-base/using-cameras-portfolios/</ref>

== Obtaining ==
The camera can be obtained in the [[Creative inventory]] in ''Minecraft Education''. It can be obtained either by NBT editors, inventory editors, or glitches in Bedrock Edition.

To get the block form of the camera in Bedrock Edition using an NBT editor, you need to set the item name of the block in the inventory slot (<code>name:</code> ) to <code>item.camera</code>, then you need to add a compound tag called <code>Block</code> and inside of that put the int tag <code>version: 18040335</code> and the text tag <code>name: minecraft:camera</code> into the block compound tag. For the usable "[[spawn egg]]" form of the camera, you only need to set the item name of the block in the inventory slot (<code>name:</code> ) to <code>camera</code>; you do not need to add the block compound for this form of the camera. 

== Usage ==
Using a camera from the [[inventory]] captures a first-person screenshot. It can also be placed, creating a camera [[entity]] that can track the user, and take pictures from the camera's perspective. Photos that are taken using the camera appear in the [[portfolio]].

Close-up snapshots of an [[item]] on the ground can be taken by holding the Shift key while right-clicking.

Photos that are taken with the camera block are stored in <code>%localappdata%\Packages\MinecraftUWP_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalState\screenshots</code>.

=== Future ===
At the Minecraft [[Pocket Edition]] panel at [[MineCon 2012]], as well as one of [[Johan Bernhardsson|Jbernhardsson]]'s livestreams, it was stated that future plans include trying to have a proper use for cameras, perhaps an easier way to take screenshots and share them with others.<ref>{{ytl|YMhyX_lKWV4}}</ref> In the BlockTalk Q&A, the camera was briefly mentioned as part of a broader "sharing" theme planned for {{el|be}} in the future.<ref>{{ytl|Ruf6tvqsD84}}</ref>
It later got implemented into {{el|ee}}, using the camera to make screenshots and share them in a special book.

== Issues ==
{{Issue list}}

== Trivia ==
* A camera prevents a [[Book and Quill]] from working. Attempting to craft it or obtain it by commands gives a regular book instead, due to non-implementation of photo attaching to written books.
* The camera can take a screenshot, which appears a bit smaller with a thick paper outline having cuts on its edges, making it look like an old photograph.
* This feature is hidden from the Creative inventory and from the /give command item menu.

A '''chalkboard''' is a [[block]] that can display more text than a [[sign]].<ref>https://education.minecraft.net/support/knowledge-base/using-slates-posters-boards/</ref> Three sizes are available: 1×1 (slate), 2×1 (poster), and 3×2 (board).

== Obtaining ==
In ''[[Education Edition]]'', chalkboards can be obtained in the [[Creative inventory]] or through the {{cmd|give}} command.
In ''[[Bedrock Edition]]'', chalkboards cannot be obtained by commands or the creative inventory, and can only be obtained by using glitches or inventory editors.

== Usage ==
A chalkboard can be used similarly to a [[sign]], to display text. Once placed, select the chalkboard and enter the desired text and click the "OK" button. The "×" in the upper right corner of the board closes the edit screen.

=== Placement ===
Chalkboards may be placed on the top or side of other blocks (including non-solid blocks like [[fence]]s, [[glass]], [[rail]]s, and other chalkboards). To place a chalkboard, {{control|use}} a chalkboard item while pointing at the block the chalkboard should be attached to. To place a chalkboard on a block that can be interacted with by the {{control|use}} control (for example, [[chest]]s, [[note block]]s, etc.), {{control|sneak}} while placing the chalkboard.

1×1 slates placed on the top of a block stand on a short post, facing in the direction of the player who placed it, in any of 16 different directions. 2×1 posters and 2×3 boards can be placed in any of 4 different directions. Chalkboards placed on the side of a block simply float there, even if the block doesn't make contact with the chalkboards.

=== Text ===
When entering text, six lines of text are available for the slates and posters, while fifteen lines of text are available for the 2×3 boards. To switch between lines, the player can press Enter or the up/down arrow keys. The location of text currently selected has a flashing cursor.

While editing, typing and backspacing can occur at any point in the line by moving the cursor using the left and right arrow keys. Once the end of the line has been reached, the word is hyphenated and is continued on the next line.

After the editing window is closed, right-clicking on a chalkboard reopens the editing menu. Copy and paste can be performed, and no more than the basic/shifted keyboard characters may be entered.

=== Interaction ===
Chalkboards act as though they have a {{control|use}} action, so {{control|sneaking}} is required to place blocks or use items while the cursor is pointed at them.

Unlike signs, boards block a [[piston]] from moving.

Boards have no collision box (they are completely non-solid), so [[item]]s and [[mob]]s can move through boards blocks. Other blocks (including other boards) can be placed on any edge of a board.

[[Water]] and [[lava]] flow around boards. Lava can create [[fire]] in [[air]] blocks next to boards as if the boards were flammable, but the boards do not burn.

===Mob loot===

==== Skeletons and Strays ====

[[Skeleton]]s and [[stray]]s have an 8.5% chance of dropping a normal or enchanted bow on death when killed by a [[player]] or a tamed [[wolf]]. 

The chance of dropping a bow is increased by 1% per level of [[Looting]], allowing up to an 11.5% chance of dropping. 

The chance of being enchanted depends on the [[difficulty]], whether it is normal or hard. The enchantment level is equal to enchant level 5-22. 

Bows of [[skeleton trap]]s are always enchanted at level 5 to 23. The exact level depends on [[regional difficulty]], as on Easy it is always a level-5 enchantment.

==== Illusioners ====
{{exclusive|java|section=1}}

[[Illusioner]]s have an 8.5% chance of dropping an unenchanted bow when killed by the player. The chance of dropping a bow is increased by 1% per level of Looting, allowing up to an 11.5% chance of dropping. 

=== Trading ===

Apprentice-level fletcher [[villager]]s sell bows for 2 [[emerald]]s as part of their [[trading|trade]]s.

Expert-level fletcher villagers sell enchanted bows for 7–21 emeralds as part of their trades. The enchantment level is equal to enchant level 5–19.

=== Fishing ===

Bows have a chance of being caught by [[fishing]]. When caught, the bow may be damaged and contain random [[enchantment]]s equivalent to a level 30 enchantment from an [[enchanting table]], including treasure enchantments like [[Mending]].

== Usage ==

=== Weapon ===
[[File:Steve aiming with Bow.png|150px|right]]
[[File:Alex aiming with Bow.png|150px|right]]

Bows can be drawn back by {{control|using}} them. In order to use a bow, the player must have at least one [[arrow]] in their [[inventory]] or be in [[Creative]] mode. The arrow that is shown inside the bow always looks like a regular arrow, regardless of what kind of arrow is actually being shot from the bow.<ref>{{bug|MC-87685||Drawn bow texture does not reflect arrow that will be shot|WF}}</ref>

When drawing a bow, the display zooms in slightly. Charging the bow to its maximum causes it to visually shake as an indicator. Releasing the button shoots an [[arrow]]. Drawing a bow can be canceled by switching to another hotbar slot while holding use.

While the bow is being charged or remains fully charged, the player is forced to move at [[sneaking]] speed, unless they are riding a [[horse]], [[minecart]] or [[boat]], or flying with [[elytra]]. It is not possible to [[Sprinting|sprint]] while charging a bow or holding a drawn bow. When the bow is released, normal motion resumes although any prior sprint is cancelled. Sneaking while drawing the bow makes the player move even slower.

If an arrow hits another player, the player that shoots the arrow hears a high-pitched "ding" sound.{{only|je}}

Fully charged shots launch critical arrows which have a trail of [[particles]] behind them and deal up to <math display="inline">\left ( \frac{3x}{2} \right ) + 2</math>damage, where <math>x</math>is the damage after any enchantments. The listed values below describe maximum damage from a bow with no [[Power]] enchantments, assuming the target is at a distance where drag and gravity are negligible. However, the critical damage is likely to be more around 8-10; critical damage is added at a random value between <math>x</math>and <math display="inline">\left ( \frac{3x}{2} \right ) + 2</math> and it is rare to have minimum or maximum values. The damage dealt can ultimately be less than the maximum damage if the arrow slows down after being shot. 

{| class="wikitable" style="text-align:center" data-description="Shot base damage by changing time"
|-
! Charging time
! Maximum attack damage

|{{ItemSprite|Bow|text= '''0.1 s'''}} (no charge)

|{{hp|6}}
|-
|{{ItemSprite|Bow|text= '''1+ s'''}} (critical)
|{{hp|11}}
|-
|}

The game stores the damage of arrows even in values with a decimal point. For example, it is possible for a critical arrow shot to cause damage values such as 6.4. In this cases of a broken value, the game can round up or down and store the amount for subsequent damage sources.

Any projectile thrown by the player is under the influence of momentum in current versions of ''Minecraft''. Naturally, the player's movement speed can be modified under a number of circumstances, affecting the ballistic trajectory of projectiles, and as a result, the damage inflicted by arrows.

In [[Java Edition Combat Tests]], to avoid sniping, arrows shot from fully-charged bows become non-critical if held drawn back for longer than three seconds. Instantaneous effects on tipped arrows are scaled by 1/8, just like the duration of other effects. For example, Instant Damage I arrow will deal an additional {{hp|0.75}} magical damage.

Damage caused by the arrow is not affected by the [[Strength]] effect.

[[Endermen]] cannot be shot using an arrow, because the arrow either disappears as the enderman teleports, or it gets deflected. Even while immobile, the enderman is immune to damage from arrows. However, an arrow shot from a bow enchanted with [[Flame]] can ignite the enderman.

=== Crafting ingredient ===

{{crafting usage|Bow, Damaged Bow}}

=== Enchantments ===

Bows can receive several different [[enchantment]]s and have a base enchantability of 1. Bow enchantments have no effect on [[arrow]] speed or the distance it travels. In [[Bedrock Edition]], if a bow is enchanted with any level 1 enchantment, it always gets Power I.{{verify|This used to be in the trivia section. Not valid in Java Edition.}}

=== Fuel ===

A bow can be used as [[fuel]] in [[furnace]]s, smelting 1.5 items per bow {{in|java}} or 1 item per bow {{in|bedrock}}.

== Arrows ==

{{main|Arrow}}

As in real life, a flying [[arrow]] in ''Minecraft'' is affected by gravity. Its vertical speed is modified by one block downward every second, resulting in a {{w|Parabola|parabolic}} flight path. An arrow slows down if shot through water, reducing its damage to near zero unless brought back into the air or otherwise given momentum.{{Only|Java}}

Arrows that hit solid [[blocks]] become stuck and can be retrieved, unless the arrow was shot by a bow [[enchant]]ed with [[Infinity]], a player in Creative mode, or a mob.

An arrow shot through [[lava]] ignites, giving it the effect of the [[Flame]] enchantment, igniting any entity it hits. If not extinguished, the fire inflicts up to {{hp|4}} damage. Although a [[wither skeleton]] does not spawn naturally with bows, if it holds a bow then it also shoots flaming arrows.

On impact, an arrow can trigger a wooden [[pressure plate]], [[target]] block, [[wooden button]], or [[tripwire]]. Arrows cannot trigger stone pressure plates or stone buttons.

The player can choose the type of arrow to shoot based on its location in the inventory. Arrows in the off-hand, or the selected hotbar slot if the bow is in the off-hand, are prioritized first. If there are no arrows in the off-hand or selected hotbar slot then the arrow closest to [[Inventory#Slots|slot 0]] is selected.

Arrows shot by bows in [[Bedrock Edition]] has a slightly higher range than arrows shot by bows in [[Java Edition]].
