For the launcher for Minecraft Dungeons, see [[:minecraft

Dungeons:Launcher|minecraft Dungeons:Launcher]].

The Minecraft Launcher is the login and downloader front-end to the stand-alone Minecraft: Java Edition client. It is available for Windows, macOS and Linux.

The launcher is responsible for downloading the main Java packages, including client.jar, which holds the code and resources of the game such as textures and Lightweight Java Game Library (LWJGL). It also acts somewhat like a basic copy-restriction by forcing the user to login to an account when running for the first time.

It is possible for the launcher to run all release versions of Minecraft: Java Edition, as well as most Beta versions, and a small fraction of Classic, Indev, Infdev and Alpha versions. Not every version of the game is included (see Missing launcher versions).

The current launcher is the seventh launcher for Minecraft: Java Edition, and the third that was built to automatically update itself.

On February 24, 2020, in launcher version 2.1.1230x, a new section for the game Minecraft Dungeons was added where one could sign up for its beta. This is the first time the Minecraft launcher includes a game other than Minecraft: Java Edition.

Launch

2019LauncherLogin

The login screen for the launcher when the player isn't logged-in.

Every time the launcher is executed, it checks a specific directory where Minecraft stores its files called ".minecraft". It checks a file called "launcher_profiles.json" for login credentials. If the file does not exist, is corrupt, or no user is logged in, the user must login with a valid account, otherwise, the user is directed to register an account and purchase the game or play the demo mode.

When logging in, the launcher first tries to verify the login. If a valid launcher_profiles.json file exists but there is no Internet connection, the launcher offers a "play offline" mode if a player was logged in when it was last closed. If the connection is successful, the launcher then, depending on profile options, compares the latest version in the latest "versions" directory to the latest version reported by the server. If the selected version does not exist or the latest installed version is outdated when "Use latest version" is selected in the profile, the launcher downloads all Minecraft components and Java binary files. It also synchronizes everything in the assets folder (see Resource pack).

Finally, upon a successful update or installation, the launcher executes the Minecraft jar (via javaw.exe, Oracle's Java virtual machine executable.) It is possible however for there to be missing .jar files, in which case the launcher attempts to replace the missing files automatically but stops if there is no connection.

Features

Launcher

  • Manage multiple profiles (stored in launcher_profiles.json). Each profile can control:
    • Game version. Includes access to outdated development builds and previous releases. Older/custom versions can also be added manually.[1]
    • Mojang account used to play the game
    • Command line arguments for Java (such as heap size)
    • Game directory (where the game files are saved on disk)
    • Edit profile pictures or custom made ones
  • The launcher doesn't store the password locally. Instead of this, it uses a 'refresh token'
  • The launcher supports multiple instances (as the game also does)
  • Automatic updates for launcher
  • Ability to update libraries, such as Lightweight Java Game Library (LWJGL)
  • Offline mode. (The first time launch requires an Internet connection to download required resources)
  • 39 languages available (December 2019)
  • Crashes can be reported to Mojang, through Hopper
  • Crashes are indexed through a database for information on how to fix the issue
  • Launcher Settings
  • Switching accounts or logging off
  • Changing skins
  • Downloads servers on versions
  • Help button
  • Shows the player the launcher version information when the player clicks the launcher version

Backward compatibility

HowtoOldVersion2019

A profile with Alpha and Beta versions enabled

The Minecraft launcher has the ability to play old Alpha and Beta versions of the game. Currently, snapshots, Alpha, Beta, and all release versions are available to play. Four Pre-classic versions, four Classic versions, and one Infdev version are available under the name "old_alpha".[2] No Indev versions are currently available from the launcher.

These versions are out of date and may be unstable. Any bugs, glitches, missing features, or crashes that result from instability can never be resolved as only later versions are supported. Mojang strongly recommends backing up any save data and playing through a separate directory in the case of corruption.[3]

To enable the old versions, click the "Installations", turn the "Historical Versions", make a new profile, select any of the versions in the "Version" box, then click "Save".

Skins

SkinLibrary

Skin library

ChangingSkinLauncher

Skin options in the launcher

The player can change or add their custom skin within the Minecraft launcher. To change or add their skin, the player must click the "Skins" button, then click the "Browse" button to navigate through their file system for their skin file. The file must have a resolution of 64×64 in order for the launcher to accept it as a skin file. Additionally, the skin file must be in a .png format. After the player has found the skin file, they must click the "Save" button to confirm their in-game skin.

  • The player can reset their skin to the Steve or Alex defaults by clicking "Click to reset".
  • The player can choose between player models – either Classic (Steve) or Slim (Alex).

Installations

When the player opens the launcher for the first time, it creates a profile that selects the latest version of Minecraft: Java Edition – it cannot be removed.

However, the player may create a game profile of their own in the launcher. In order to do so, they must click on the "Installations" button, then click "New..." to create one. After this, the player can name their profile as they want it. If the player leaves it, it is named "<unnamed installation>". Then, optionally, the player can select a profile picture from the launcher or a custom one. However, it must be a 128×128 .png picture. After, the player can select the version they wish to play, and click "Create" to confirm their profile. If the player wants to edit a profile, they can just click it. The same applies if the player wishes to delete a profile. Simply click the three dots button and press Delete. A popup appears; press Delete.

  • 2019LauncherProfileSettings

    Installations settings in the launcher

    The player can download server versions by clicking "Server".
  • If the player wants to resize the game, they can turn "Resolution" on to change the game window size.
  • The player can turn "More options" on to show more profile options.
  • If the player wants to change the .minecraft file path, they can turn on the "Game directory" option. Now, navigate to the folder where the player wishes to relocate the .minecraft folder. The player can also open the Minecraft profile by clicking the green arrow-shaped "Go to folder" button.
  • If the player turned "Snapshots" check on, it creates a "Latest snapshot" profile automatically.
  • The player can manually set a logging configuration (see the Debugging article on wiki.vg for more info)
  • The player can also duplicate a profile by clicking the stacked 3 dots button while hovering a profile.

Command line usage

As of 2.1.1432, the launcher has 9 command-line options available:

  • --clean – This option deletes the "game" and "runtime" folders, including their contents, from the working directory.
  • --launcherui
  • --workDir – This option, followed by a path (relative or absolute), changes the location (and/or name) of the .minecraft folder.
    • Can be used to create a portable installation of the game. For example, --workDir . (or --workDir=.) can be used to make the launcher use the current directory (no matter what the current folder is called).
  • --nativeLauncherVersion
  • --tmpDir – This option, followed by a path (relative or absolute), changes the location (and/or name) of the tmp folder.
  • --lockDir
  • --winTen – This option adds support for Windows 10. Since the launcher now supports Windows 10 fully, this option is unnecessary and seems to have no effect.
  • --proxyHost
  • --proxyPort

{{Item
| title = Ankle Monitor

}}

The '''Ankle monitor''' was a joke foot item.

== Usage ==
Ankle monitors were equipped in the boots slot. In survival mode, when equipped, it could not be taken off. However, players in Creative mode are unaffected.

When equipped, the player would be afflicted with {{EffectLink|Slowness}} I.

During the night, being a certain number of blocks from the world spawn, above a certain minimum,{{checkthecode|how much?}} would prompt the following message in chat: "CURFEW WARNING! You are violating your house arrest! Get back by [distance] meters!"

If in [[the Nether]] or [[the End]], a different set of messages would be cycled through which can be seen in the section below.

=== Nether and End messages ===
* CURFEW WARNING! You are violating your house arrest! Uuuh... where are you anyway?
* CURFEW WARNING! Hello, are you there?
* CURFEW WARNING! I'm sure you have important things to do, but you need to go back!
* CURFEW WARNING! We're lonely back home!
* CURFEW WARNING! By "we" I mean I. I'm lonely.
* CURFEW WARNING! Ok enough games... GET BACK RIGHT NOW!
* CURFEW WARNING! LAST WARNING!
* CURFEW WARNING! LASTEST WARNING (really now)
* CURFEW WARNING! ...
* CURFEW WARNING! So... Where are you?
* CURFEW WARNING! Having a good day?
* CURFEW WARNING! Did you see that monster over there?
* CURFEW WARNING! Give it a whack, if you would be so kind.
* CURFEW WARNING! Teheee...
* CURFEW WARNING! Ok, enough of this!
* CURFEW WARNING! Last straw!
* CURFEW WARNING! Now you die.
* CURFEW WARNING! Boom!
* CURFEW WARNING! Hehe, fun right?
* CURFEW WARNING! Ok, you will not hear anything more from me now!
* CURFEW WARNING! You'll be as lonely as I am.
* CURFEW WARNING! How does that feel?
* CURFEW WARNING! I know, I'll wipe my memory. That way, I can start over!
* CURFEW WARNING! *bzzzzttt*

== Usage ==

When {{control|used}} on a [[mob]], a [[fence]], or a [[wall]], balloons attach to the mob or block, similar to a [[lead]]. Balloons float into the air faster than the speed [[the player]] flies up, but remain grounded if tied to a fence. If tied to a mob, the balloon floats away and carries the mob high into the air, before both eventually despawn or disappear.

When a balloon is shot by an [[arrow]] or a [[trident]], or floats into a solid block, it pops, summons [[particles]], and is destroyed. It drops nothing. A balloon tied to a fence post bursts when a player strikes it in any direction.

A '''nautilus shell''' is an item that is used for crafting [[conduit]]s.

==Obtaining==
===Fishing===
{{main|Fishing#Junk and treasure}}
Nautilus shells can be rarely obtained as a treasure item from fishing. The drop chances of nautilus shells slightly increase with each level of [[Luck of the Sea]] on the [[player]]'s [[fishing rod]].

===Mob loot===
[[Drowned]] have a 3%{{only|java|short=1}} or 8%{{only|bedrock|short=1}} chance to spawn with a nautilus shell in their off-hand, and this nautilus shell always drops upon [[death]].

===Trading===
[[Wandering trader]]s may [[trading|sell]] a nautilus shell for 5 [[emerald]]s each, but they only sell 5 of them at a time.

==Usage==
{{IN|bedrock}}, a nautilus shell is one of the few items that can be held in the off-hand.

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

=== Trading ===
Nautilus shells can be given to trident-wielding drowned with a chance for the drowned to pick up the shell and drop the trident.<sup>[''[[Bedrock Edition]] only'']</sup>

==Issues==
{{issue list}}

==Trivia==
*[[wikipedia:Nautilus|Nautilus]]es are animals that occupy deep oceans in the real world. However, they are absent in Minecraft and there are currently no plans to add nautilus [[mob]]s into the game.
*Because {{el|bedrock}} allows for Nautilus shells to be held in the off-hand (since drowned hold them), they are the only item in that version that can be put in the off-hand slot without having a specific function.

}}'''Potions''' are bottled substances designed to inflict [[effects]]. They are created by [[brewing]] and when drunk give the player an [[effect]] for a limited time. All potions are brewed from a '''water bottle''', which is considered a type of potion but has no effects.

== Obtaining ==

=== Mob loot ===

==== Witches ====

[[Witch]]es can drop potions of Healing, Fire Resistance, Swiftness, or Water Breathing if they die while drinking that potion.

==== Wandering traders ====

[[Wandering trader]]s have a chance to drop a Potion of Invisibility if they die while drinking the potion.

=== Fishing ===
[[Water bottle]]s can be [[fishing|fished]] up as junk items.

=== Brewing ===
{{main|Brewing}}

Almost all potions are obtained by [[brewing]].

The Potion of Luck{{only|java|short=1}} and the Potion of Decay{{only|bedrock|short=1}} cannot be brewed. A command to give a Luck Potion is {{cmd|give @s minecraft:potion{Potion:luck} }}, while a Potion of Decay can be obtained via {{cmd|give @s potion 1 36}}. Both are also available in the [[creative inventory]].

=== Chest loot ===

Two Health II potions can be found in the brewing stand on ships in [[end cities]], and one splash potion of Weakness can be found in a brewing stand in [[igloo]] basements.

{{In|Bedrock}}, the cauldron in a [[swamp hut]] contains a random potion.
{{LootChestItem|potion-of-regeneration,potion-of-water-breathing,potion-of-healing}}

=== Bartering ===
[[Piglin]]s may [[barter]] a potion or a splash potion of Fire Resistance when given a [[gold ingot]].

== Usage ==

Potions are used by pressing and holding {{control|use}} with the potion bottle in hand, as with all consumable items. When drunk they bestow the corresponding [[status effect]] to the player.

Drinking a potion while already under the effects of the same potion does not add onto the effect's duration, but simply resets it. A potion effect does not "downgrade" if a lower level is activated. For example, if a [[player]] has [[Regeneration]] II, drinking a regular potion of Regeneration does not have any effect.

Using a potion on a cauldron does not transfer the potion to the cauldron, but begins to play the drinking animation.{{only|java|short=1}}

=== Modifiers ===
{{main|Brewing}}

Potions can be modified in five ways. 
# Brewing [[glowstone dust]] into certain potions will ''enhance'' their level of effect. 
# Adding [[redstone]] will ''extend'' the duration of the effect.
# Brewing [[gunpowder]] into a potion makes it into a ''splash'' potion (area effect).
# Adding [[dragon's breath]] to a splash potion creates a [[lingering potion]] (area effect that lingers on the ground).
# Brewing a [[fermented spider eye]] into specific potions modifies their effect, usually inverting it, which is referred to as "corruption". 

The modifications of Enhancement and Extension are mutually exclusive. 

Enhancing most potions trades some of its duration for a bigger effect. For example, the base Regeneration works for 44 seconds whereas Regeneration II lasts for only 22 seconds but heals more per tick during that time. 

Extending a potion generally makes it last {{frac|8|3}} as long as its base potion, so a duration of 3 minutes becomes 8 minutes. 
==== Corruption ====
The usual result of corruption is to invert the potion's effect (for example Swiftness becomes Slowness). Interestingly, corrupting Poison (continuous damage effect) creates a Potion of Harming, an instant damage effect, instead of the continuous healing effect (regeneration) one would normally expect. Corrupting a Potion of Night Vision turns it into a Potion of Invisibility rather than an inverse effect that might be something like blindness.

Corrupting an extended or enhanced potion results in a corrupted potion with the same modifier, if it is supported by the corrupted effect. All of the "corrupted" potions except Harming can be extended, but it is the only one that can be enhanced. {{IN|bedrock}}, the corruption of Healing II or Poison II potions results in a potion of Harming I.

=== Base potions ===

Base potions are potions that have no effect when the player drinks them, but are necessary as the basis for other potions.

=== Uncraftable potion ===

{{IN|java}}, the Uncraftable Potion is a potion with no effect that is unobtainable in regular gameplay.

It is also available in splash potion and lingering potion forms, as well as for tipped arrows.

It can be obtained using the following command: {{cmd|give @s minecraft:potion{Potion:"minecraft:empty"} }}. It is also obtained any time a potion has invalid or missing potion effect tags, and thus serves as a placeholder.

==== [[Java Edition 23w13a_or_b]]====

{{Empty section}}

===Undead mobs===

The effects given by Potions of Healing and Harming are opposite on undead mobs, which includes skeletons and zombies. Potions of Healing cause harm, and Harming heals them. In addition, undead mobs are not affected by Poison or Regeneration. 

{{IN|bedrock}}, hitting an undead mob with a Regeneration Potion will always register as Regeneration I, no matter the level of the used potion.

===Mud conversion===

Using a water bottle, splash water bottle, or lingering water bottle on [[dirt]], [[coarse dirt]], or [[rooted dirt]] will convert it into [[mud]], returning a glass bottle with it. This process can be automated with a [[dispenser]]. 

===Filling cauldrons with Potions===

{{IN|Bedrock|Legacy Console}} potion bottles may be used on a cauldron to fill it. Using a glass bottle on a cauldron filled with a potion drains it and fills the bottle. Potions cannot be combined in a cauldron, nor can they be mixed with water, but as an added bonus if you use a stack of arrows in a full cauldron you get a stack of tipped arrows. for 1 layer you get 16, 2 layers 32.

==Custom effects==

{{IN|java}}, potions can also be obtained with any status effect using {{cmd|give}} and the tag <code>CustomPotionEffects</code>, which is an array of effects for the potion. See [[Item format#Potion Effects]] for more information, and [[status effect]] for a list of effects and IDs.

==Issues==
{{issue list}}

==Trivia==
*A potion can reach a maximum tier of 127, but using the {{cmd|effect}} [[commands|command]], effect levels can reach 255.
*When a player drinks two potions by quickly switching to another potion immediately after drinking one, the second drinking animation is not shown.{{verify|type=current|Still in recent versions?}} 
*A potion of [[Poison]] II lasts for 22.5 seconds, but it is displayed as 22 seconds because the [[item]] hover display shows rounded-down integer values.
*The "Local Brewery" [[advancement]] uses the Uncraftable Potion texture for its icon.

==Unused potions ==

These effects are: [[Absorption]], [[Blindness]], [[Haste]], [[Health Boost]], [[Hunger]], [[Mining Fatigue]], [[Nausea]], [[Resistance]], [[Saturation]], and [[Levitation]], as well as the [[Luck]] potion textures also present in [[Java Edition]]. These unused textures were added along with the other potion textures in [[Pocket Edition v0.12.1 alpha]], except for the potion of levitation, which was added in [[Pocket Edition 1.0.0]]. The textures were changed along with the other potion textures during the [[texture update]] in [[Bedrock Edition 1.10.0]]. Strangely, the potion of levitation texture is a duplicate of the splash potion of levitation texture.

An '''end crystal''' is an [[entity]] that can be [[Crafting|crafted]] or found on [[the End]]'s main island, where it heals the [[Ender Dragon|ender dragon]]. It can only be placed on [[obsidian]] or [[bedrock]] and [[Explosion|explodes]] instantly when attacked or damaged in most ways.

== Spawning ==

=== Natural generation ===

An end crystal is found atop each [[obsidian pillar]] on the central island of the End, each on top of a piece of [[bedrock]]. There are 10 end crystals in total, of which two are protected in "cages" of [[iron bars]]. All end crystals respawn one after another as the respawning process of the [[ender dragon]] starts.

}}

== Usage ==

=== Healing the ender dragon ===

Their primary purpose is to recharge the health of the ender dragon, who gains a charge from the nearest crystal within a cuboid extending 32 blocks from the dragon in all directions. The dragon is healed {{hp|1}} each half-second. If multiple ender dragons are spawned, an end crystal can affect multiple dragons at the same time. The healing beam is neither obstructed nor is its power diminished by entities or blocks.

=== Respawning the ender dragon ===
[[File:End Crystals on the Exit portal.png|right|thumb|How to arrange end crystals on the exit portal to respawn the ender dragon.]]

As items, end crystals may be placed on bedrock and [[obsidian]], if the two blocks above the bedrock or obsidian block are air or replaceable blocks and no other entities intersect the area. When an end crystal is placed in [[the End]], a [[fire]] block is created at the end crystal location. If four are placed on the end [[exit portal]], one on each of the flat sides, the crystals respawn the original end crystals on the obsidian pillars, as well as resurrect the dragon itself, before exploding. The top of each pillar also explodes, destroying any player-placed blocks. This happens even if TNT explosions are turned off in settings.

If the exit portal is ever broken for any reason, end crystals can still be placed on obsidian blocks with the same location as the exit portal.

=== Explosions ===

End crystals explode when attacked or damaged in most ways, even by attacks that normally do zero damage. They are not affected by exploding fireworks, and if damaged by an explosion, they disappear instead of exploding.{{Only|Java}}<ref>{{bug|MC-118429||End crystals don't explode when destroyed by nearby explosions}}</ref> The end crystal's [[explosion]] has an [[Explosion#Explosion strength|explosion strength]] of 6, the same as a [[charged creeper]]. The end crystal's fire often remains after the crystal explodes. Any ender dragon charging from the crystal when it is destroyed takes {{hp|10}} damage.

{{IN|java}}, an end crystal's explosion can be [[blocking|blocked]] by a [[shield]].

Although an ender dragon damages most blocks and entities in its path, it cannot destroy end crystals simply by going near them.

Placing [[water]] on the end crystal will neutralize the blast effect, but not the [[damage]] or knockback.

End crystals with obsidian or bedrock below them will not damage blocks below them when they explode.

{{IN|bedrock}}, having the game rule {{cd|mobGriefing}} to {{cd|false}} will prevent the End Crystal from destroying any blocks. While {{in|java}} the same game rule will not prevent the End Crystal from destroying any blocks.

=== Beams ===
The end crystal naturally shoots a beam at the ender dragon and heals it when the dragon is within range. This beam can be manually created using the command {{cmd|data merge entity @e[type{{=}}end_crystal,limit{{=}}1] {BeamTarget:{X:0, Y:0, Z:0<nowiki>}}}}. The beam can be pointed in any direction, allowing it to mark locations or objects.

=== Properties ===
[[File:End Crystal (Slateless).gif|thumb|A base-less end crystal.]]  

End crystals are of two kinds: the ones with a base beneath them are created either by game mechanism or by the {{cmd|summon}} command; while the base-less ones are created by players by manually placing the crystal items on top of [[obsidian]] or [[bedrock]].

The base appears to be made of bedrock, with a crystal hovering over it. While in the End, a crystal continually generates fire at its current position, one block above the base (directly on top of the block the base is embedded in), replacing any other block at that location. This fire is capable of spreading.

The end crystal entity is not solid and can be walked through freely. End crystals can be pushed by [[piston]]s, but they explode if moved while on fire. Because fire is checked only when an entity moves, end crystals do not normally take damage from their own fire unless moved.

== Issues ==
{{issue list}}

== Trivia ==
* According to [[Jens Bergensten|Jeb]], the reason behind the current crafting recipe using glass as opposed to [[Chorus Fruit|chorus fruit]] or any materials introduced in [[Java Edition 1.9|1.9]] is as a means for players to craft end crystals in older worlds that the dragon has already been killed in.<ref>{{tweet|jeb_|667000226524372992|The problem is that you need to be able to craft the crystals on worlds in which the dragon has been destroyed already|November 18, 2015}}</ref>
* A historical rendition of the [[beacon]] block featured an animated entity within it, which resembled a yellow miniaturized end crystal. The bedrock platform of the end crystal entity would also render below the beacon, though this would normally be hidden within the block below.
* Using a [[piston]] to push an end crystal's fire into an end portal block deletes the end portal block. However, natural portal blocks regenerate if the end crystal is moved.

'''Bottles of entity''' are items that transform players into the respective mobs when drunk.

'''Splash bottle of entity''' are a variation of bottles of mob that can be thrown.

'''Bottle of void''' is a special bottle to transform back to the original player. Right clicking with it on a transformed player will remove the transformation and convert the bottle into a bottle of entity of that transformation.

A transformation into an entity will sometimes lead to special effects. For example, transforming into a chicken will allow the player to glide slowly to the ground. The chicken will however take fall damage upon landing, killing it and transforming the player back to themselves.
Transforming into an enderman will cause the player to be teleported randomly when a projectile it aimed at it or when they're being looked at by other players. Transforming into any mob capable of flight (for example, a bat) will allow the player to fly in survival mode as if they were in creative mode.

== Sounds ==<!--No sounds when thrown from a player or dispenser-->
Splash bottles of entities use the Friendly Creatures sound category for entity-dependent sound events.

'''Bookshelves''' are [[blocks]] that improve [[enchanting|enchantments]] applied with an [[enchanting table]] when placed around one, up to a maximum of fifteen bookshelves, at the expense of [[Enchanting/Levels|level]] requirement.

== Obtaining ==
=== Natural generation ===
Bookshelves can generate in village libraries and sometimes village houses.

[[Stronghold]]s may contain up to two libraries, each of which may be single-level or have an upper balcony. These feature some bookshelves arranged in pillars, and more bookshelves arranged in pillars in the walls. Single-level libraries contain 161 bookshelves, while libraries with balconies contain 233.

Bookshelves also naturally generate in certain [[woodland mansion]] rooms.

=== Breaking ===
Bookshelves can be broken fairly easily by hand, but can be broken faster by using an [[axe]]. In either case, they drop 3 books when broken, allowing the reconstruction of the bookshelf with the addition of six wood planks. When broken by an item that is [[enchanted]] with [[Silk Touch]], a bookshelf drops itself.

Novice-level librarian villagers have a {{frac|2|3}} chance to sell 1 bookshelf for 9 emeralds.{{only|java}}

== Usage ==
=== Enchanting ===
{{main|Enchantment mechanics#Bookshelf placement}}

If an [[enchanting table]] is placed near a bookshelf, glyph [[particles]] fly from the bookshelf toward the enchanting table. Having bookshelves in the proper position near the table allows the table to apply higher-level enchantments.

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

=== Fuel ===
Bookshelves can be used as a [[fuel]] in [[furnace]]s, smelting 1.5 items per block.

=== Villager ===
Librarian [[villager]]s can interact with bookshelves.

=== Note Blocks ===
Bookshelf can be placed under [[note block]]s to produce "bass" sounds.

'''Nether sprouts''' are a non-solid fungi block that generate in [[warped forest]]s.

== Obtaining ==
=== Natural generation ===
Nether sprouts generate in [[warped forest]] biomes.

=== Breaking ===
Nether sprouts can be mined instantly with any item. The block also breaks if the block below is removed, or if [[water]] flows into its space. The block only drops if broken with [[shear]]s.

=== Post-generation ===
Applying [[bone meal]] to warped [[nylium]] creates nether sprouts on that block and surrounding nylium, along with both types of [[roots]] and [[fungi]].

== Usage ==
[[File:RootsSproutsPlaceBlock.png|thumb|All of the blocks that nether sprouts can be placed on.]]
Nether sprouts can be planted on the same blocks that [[fungus|fungi]] and [[roots]] can be placed on: [[nylium]], [[soul soil]], [[Grass Block|grass]], [[podzol]], [[mycelium]], [[Moss Block|moss]], [[dirt]], [[coarse dirt]], [[rooted dirt]], and [[farmland]]. However, they cannot be planted in [[flower pot]]s.

=== Composting ===
Placing nether sprouts into a [[composter]] has a 50% chance of raising the compost level by 1.

'''Lingering potions''' are variants of [[splash potion]]s that can be thrown to leave clouds with [[status effect]]s that linger on the ground in an area. 

== Obtaining ==

=== Brewing ===
{{main|Brewing}}

{{brewing
  |Dragon's Breath
  |Any Lingering Potion
  |ingredients=[[Dragon's Breath]] + <br>Any [[Splash Potion]]
}}

== Usage ==

=== Creating area effect clouds ===
Lingering potions are thrown, like [[splash potion]]s, by {{control|using}} them. On impact they explode, creating a cloud. The cloud is made of the potion particles corresponding to the potion that was thrown.  

The cloud starts with a radius of 3 blocks, decreasing to 0 over the course of 30 seconds. During the cloud's existence, any player or mob that walks into it after the first second gets the corresponding status effect; this decreases the radius by a {{frac|1|2}} block immediately, reducing the cloud's lifespan by 5 seconds.

For effects with duration, the duration applied by the cloud is {{frac|1|4}} that of the corresponding [[potion]]. For effects without duration such as healing or harming, the potency of the effect is {{frac|1|2}} that of the corresponding potion.

The effect may be applied consecutively if the player or mob remains in the cloud. For example, a player throwing the Lingering Potion of Healing II straight down consumes the cloud within a few seconds while being healed 5 times for a total of {{hp|20}} health. As far as healing is concerned, this makes the lingering potion much more powerful than the regular or splash potion, provided that the player is away from other mobs or players.

Lingering potions can also be thrown out of [[dispenser]]s like splash potions.

=== Lingering water bottle ===
Like the [[Splash potion#Splash water bottles|splash water bottle]], a lingering water bottle puts out fire and damages endermen and blazes by {{hp|1}}. It creates no effect cloud.

==== Mud ====

Lingering water bottles can be {{control|used}} on [[dirt]], [[coarse dirt]], or [[rooted dirt]] to turn it into [[mud]].

=== Crafting ingredient ===

{{crafting usage|Lingering Potion, Lingering Water Bottle|match=any}}

=== Filling cauldrons ===

{{IN|bedrock}}, using a lingering potion on a cauldron adds one level of that potion to the cauldron. Attempting to add a lingering potion to a cauldron with water, dyed water or a non-matching potion empties the cauldron and creates an explosion sound (but no actual explosion).

=== Uncraftable lingering potion ===

{{IN|java}}, the uncraftable potion is a splash potion with no effect that is unobtainable in regular gameplay. It is also available in potion and splash potion forms, as well as for tipped arrows.

It can be obtained using the following command: {{cmd|give @s minecraft:lingering_potion{Potion:"minecraft:empty"} }}. It is also obtained any time a potion has invalid or missing potion effect tags, and thus serves as a placeholder.

! Name
|-
| {{Slot|Uncraftable Lingering Potion|link=none}}
! Uncraftable Lingering Potion
|}

== Custom effects ==

{{IN|java}}, lingering potions can be obtained with any status effect using {{cmd|give}} and the tag {{code|CustomPotionEffects}}, which is an array of effects for the potion. See [[Item format#Potion Effects]] for more information, and [[status effect]] for a list of effects and IDs.

== Sounds ==

An '''arrow''' serves as ammunition for [[bow]]s, [[crossbow]]s, and [[dispenser]]s. Arrows can be modified to give [[status effects]] to [[player]]s and [[mob]]s.

== Obtaining ==

=== Picking up arrows ===

Arrows shot by players can always be [[#Retrieving|picked up]] in Creative mode.

An arrow ''cannot'' be picked up by a player in [[Survival]] or [[Adventure]] mode if:
* It is shot by a player in [[Creative]] mode.
* It is shot by any [[mob]] able to shoot arrows, such as [[skeleton]]s, [[stray]]s, [[pillager]]s, or [[piglin]]s. This includes mobs that do not shoot arrows in normal gameplay, such as [[illusioner]]s and bow-wielding [[wither skeleton]]s.
** This is the case even in Creative mode.<ref>{{bug|MC-128845|||WAI}}</ref>
* It is shot with an [[Infinity]]-enchanted [[bow]].
* It is one of the two extra arrows shot with a [[Multishot]]-enchanted [[crossbow]].

=== Mob loot ===

[[Skeleton]]s and [[stray]]s drop 0-2 arrows upon death. The maximum drop is increased by 1 per level of [[Looting]], for a maximum of 0–5 arrows with Looting III.

Strays have a 50% chance of dropping 1 arrow of [[Slowness]] when killed by a player. Each level of Looting increases the chance of this drop by 50% of the previous chance. This results in a maximum of 93.75% with Looting III.

{{IN|bedrock}}, [[pillager]]s also drop 0–2 arrows upon death. The maximum drop is increased by 1 per level of Looting, for a maximum of 0-5 arrows with Looting III.

=== Trading ===

Novice-level fletcher [[villager]]s have a 50% chance {{in|bedrock}}, or a {{frac|2|3}} chance {{in|java}}, to sell 16 arrows for one [[emerald]] as part of their trades.

{{IN|bedrock}}, master-level fletcher villagers have a {{frac|1|2}} chance to sell 5 tipped arrows for 2 emeralds and 5 arrows. {{IN|java}}, they have a {{frac|2|3}} chance to sell 5 tipped arrows for 2 emeralds and 5 arrows.  Trades {{in|java}} can be the base effect, level II, or extended; {{in|bedrock}}, only the arrow of decay is level II.<!-- A check should be made if it chooses randomly from the whole of the list of possible arrows variants, or it it chooses a base arrow potion effect, then randomly choose from that arrow's options. The first one would make arrow's without a level II, like Fire Resistance for example, slightly less likely than ones with all three options like Swiftness.  -->

<!-- None are extended duration, but villagers can trade level 2 arrows. -->

* Arrow of [[Decay]]{{only|bedrock}}

These are all potion effects except Slow Falling {{in|bedrock}} and [[Luck]] {{in|java}}. Trading is the only legitimate way to obtain arrows of Decay in [[Survival]] mode.

=== Bartering ===

Spectral arrows{{only|java}}/normal arrows{{only|bedrock}} can be obtained through [[bartering]] with [[piglin]]s, and have a ~8.71% chance to give the [[player]] 6-12 arrows.

=== Villager gifts ===
{{IN|java}}, any regular or tipped arrow (except for [[luck]] and [[Bad Luck]] arrows) can be obtained as a reward item from [[fletcher]] [[villager]]s when the player has the [[Hero of the Village]] status effect.

=== Retrieving ===

Arrows stuck in a block that were originally shot by dispensers or by players in [[Survival]] without the [[Infinity]] enchantment may be collected. Arrows originally shot by [[skeleton]]s, [[stray]]s, [[illusioner]]s, [[pillager]]s, [[piglin]]s, players in [[Creative]], players using the [[Infinity]] enchantment, or duplicate arrows created by [[Crossbow]]s with the [[Multishot]] enchantment cannot be collected. Arrows cannot be retrieved when they are stuck in a player or mob, and players or mobs do not drop them when killed. Retrievable arrows have a despawn timer of 60 seconds.

=== Cauldrons ===
{{main|Cauldron#Potions}}

{{IN|bedrock}}, tipped arrows can also be obtained by using arrows on [[Cauldron#Potions|cauldrons]] that contain [[potion]]s. The number of tipped arrows created depends on the potion inside the cauldron. When the cauldron is {{frac|1|3}} full, 16 arrows can be tipped. When the cauldron is {{frac|2|3}} full, up to 32 arrows can be tipped and when the cauldron is full, an entire stack of 64 arrows can be tipped. This is more efficient than using lingering potions as up to 21.33 arrows can be tipped per potion.

== Usage ==
{{see also|Bow}}

When fired, arrows fly in a [[wikipedia:Trajectory of a projectile|ballistic trajectory]] affected by gravity and drag in [[air]], [[water]], and [[lava]]. The arrow's velocity is multiplied by 0.99 every game tick, and it also experiences 20 block/s<sup>2</sup> of downward acceleration induced by gravity.

Arrows travel approximately 3 [[block]]s when fired parallel to a flat plane with no charge, 15 blocks average with medium charge, and 24 blocks average with maximum charge. When fired from a fully charged bow, arrows can travel 120 blocks if fired from an optimal angle. The maximum height an arrow fired by a bow can reach is around 66 blocks.

An arrow fired in water experiences much more drag than in air: it moves less than 8 blocks before completely losing horizontal speed and falling straight down, although the knockback of the arrow remains unaffected. It also leaves a trail of bubbles in its wake.

There is a random variable to the trajectory of an arrow, given by <code>this.rand.nextGaussian() * 0.0075 * (double)inaccuracy</code> for the x, y and z coordinate. The inaccuracy is relatively small, becoming noticeable over larger distances. The inaccuracy of different arrow delivery devices may differ. Dispensers fire with an inaccuracy of 6, while bows fire with an inaccuracy of 1.

An arrow's speed determine the damage it inflicts. The damage inflicted is calculated by multiplying the arrow's [[#Entity data|damage value]] with its velocity in blocks per [[Tick#Game tick|game tick]]. When fired from a fully-charged unenchanted bow, arrows do {{hp|6}} of damage, with a smaller chance to damage for up to {{hp|11}} via critical hits. They inflict up to {{hp|5}} damage from a medium-charged bow, and {{hp|1}} from a bow with no charge. Arrows fired from dispensers always do {{hp|3}} of damage unless their velocity is modified by an external source. Arrows fired from [[crossbow]]s do {{hp|6}} to {{hp|11}} of damage.

Arrows trigger [[Damage#Immunity|damage immunity]] on hit. However, unlike other methods of damage that may bypass invulnerability under certain conditions, arrows hitting the mob while it is invulnerable lose all speed and drop to the ground, dealing no damage unless they contact another mob.

[[File:ArrowShotInTree.png|thumb|An arrow shot into a [[tree]].]]
Arrows also stick into objects they come in contact with and remain there for one minute before disappearing; the distance from the object and the angle determine how far into the target the arrow penetrates. Such arrows may be [[#Retrieving|retrieved]].

If the arrow has any custom potion effects (NBT tag <code>CustomPotionEffects</code>), all potion effects, including vanilla potion effects (NBT tag <code>Potion</code>) are removed 30 seconds after the arrow stops moving.

If an arrow is stuck in a block, and that block is broken or disappears (e.g., [[leaves]] upon decay), then the arrow falls straight down and damages entities below, but never deals a critical hit. The 1-minute despawn timer is then refreshed, meaning it will take another minute for the arrow to despawn.

Arrows bounce off players and mobs immune to damage, like a player in Creative mode, a [[wither]] under the "wither armor" effect, and a perching [[ender dragon]].

Arrows shot through [[lava]] or (if there's at least a 2 block gap) [[fire]] catch on fire and show an appropriate animation until they pass through water. Like arrows shot from a bow with the Flame enchantment, they can set other entities they hit on fire for 5 seconds as well as ignite TNT and campfires.

An arrow shot at any kind of boat{{only|java|short=1}} or minecart causes the vehicle to break, dropping any components (including container contents).

Arrows can get visually stuck in players {{in|java}}, although not any mobs. They appear as regular arrows regardless of type.<ref>{{bug|MC-83933|||WAI}}</ref>

=== Redstone circuits ===

An arrow can activate a wooden [[button]], wooden [[pressure plate]], a [[tripwire]], or a [[target]]. An arrow will continue to power these blocks until it is removed, either due to despawning, or being picked up. Target blocks emit a redstone pulse for one second, as opposed to the static depressed state of the other switches. Non-wooden switches are not affected by arrows.

When arrows are fired into the sides of blocks, they change their orientation to point more downward than their original flight path might indicate. This can cause them to intersect and thus trigger switches above them that they didn't actually hit, or block rails above them.

=== Explosions ===

Arrows are affected by explosions while they are in flight. Since explosions can increase the speed of an arrow, they can also increase the damage dealt by them. {{only|Java}}

== Variants ==

=== Tipped arrows ===
{{See also|#Crafting}}

Tipped arrows are arrows that imbue a potion effect when hitting a mob or player. The duration of the effect is {{frac|1|8}} that of the corresponding potion, if applicable, and is not affected by the power of the arrow. The status effect is the same as the regular power effect for the potion. If a bow is enchanted with [[Infinity]], tipped arrows are still consumed. 

The types of arrows are:

Arrows of Harming (and arrows of Healing when used against undead mobs) do not add a static amount of damage to the arrow.<ref>{{bug|MC-107856||Arrows of harming/healing do not stack with bow damage}}</ref> Instead, the arrow's damage is first calculated, then checked to see if it is below {{Health|12}}. If the arrow's damage is less than 12, the Harming effect of the arrow makes up the difference, to ensure the arrow does exactly {{Health|12}}. Therefore, an unenchanted bow cannot deal more than 12 damage using Harming (or Healing) arrows, as it can deal a maximum of {{Health|11}} damage on level ground. However, if the arrow would deal more than 12 damage, the harming effect is entirely neutralized. This means that bows enchanted with Power I through Power III has a chance to not utilize the arrow at full charge, and any Power level above III never utilizes Arrows of Harming effectively at full charge when against unarmored mobs/players. 

==== No-effect tipped arrows ====

It is possible to craft tipped arrows using [[Lingering Potion#Lingering water bottle|Lingering Water Bottles]] as well as Awkward, Thick, and Mundane [[Lingering Potion|Lingering potions]]. If crafted with a water bottle, the arrow is called an arrow of Splashing. If crafted with Mundane, Awkward, or Thick potions, it is called a tipped arrow.<ref>{{bug|MC-158539}}</ref> Tipped arrows crafted from different potions do not stack, as resultant tipped arrows all have different potion tags.

In Bedrock Edition, all four kinds as well as the long mundane tipped arrow aren't obtainable either in creative, by cauldrons, by crafting, or by commands.

All four kinds generate blue particles in flight and upon landing, but otherwise behave like regular arrows. In particular, arrow of Splashing has no effect on fire and campfires and when shot from a bow with the Flame enchantment, can light campfires and TNT just like regular arrows on fire.

==== Uncraftable tipped arrows ====

{{IN|java}}, the uncraftable tipped arrow is a tipped arrow with no effect that is unobtainable in regular gameplay. It is available in two variants that don't stack together:

* {{cmd|/give @s minecraft:tipped_arrow{Potion:"minecraft:empty"} }} - arrow assigned an effect placeholder "empty" 
* {{cmd|/give @s minecraft:tipped_arrow }} - arrow not assigned any effect.

The uncraftable arrow doesn't differ from regular arrows in behavior when used as a projectile.

=== Spectral arrows ===
{{exclusive|java}}
A spectral arrow confers the [[Glowing]] status effect for 10 seconds. The Glowing effect creates an outline of the target, which is visible through blocks, and colored based on the target's [[team]] (white by default). Even if a bow is enchanted with [[Infinity]], spectral arrows are still consumed. Spectral arrows can be acquired through [[bartering]] or crafted by combining 4 [[Glowstone Dust#Crafting ingredient|glowstone dust]] with one arrow, yielding 2 spectral arrows.

== Trivia ==
* By default, arrows fly slightly offset to the right. If the player stands close to a wall and fires several arrows without moving the crosshair, the arrows cluster around a point slightly to the right of the crosshair. If the player switches their main hand to be the left hand in options, the arrows instead cluster to the left.
* Arrows fired at [[Nether Portal]]s often skip through the portal block completely and fail to collide, thus continuing through to the opposite side of the block.
* Arrows stuck in blocks vibrate upon a world reload.<ref>{{bug|MC-93992}} – "Arrow shakes when world loads" resolved as "Won't Fix"</ref>
* Although [[enderman|endermen]] teleport when hit by any tipped arrow, they are still given the said effects while avoiding arrow damage.
* {{IN|bedrock}}, even if a tipped arrow is blocked with a shield, while the direct damage from the arrows is negated, the player still gets the effect from the tipped arrow.<ref>{{bug|MCPE-52904}}</ref>

A '''carrot on a stick''' is an item that can be used to control saddled [[pig]]s.

== Obtaining ==

=== Crafting ===

It is possible to craft a carrot on a stick without a [[crafting table]].
{{Crafting
|head=1
|showname=0
|showdescription=1
|B2=Fishing Rod; Damaged Fishing Rod
|C3=Carrot
|Output= Carrot on a Stick
|type= Transportation
|description= The fishing rod must be diagonally above the carrot to craft the carrot on a stick.
}}
{{crafting
|foot=1
|ignoreusage=1
|Damaged Carrot on a Stick
|Damaged Carrot on a Stick
|Output= Carrot on a Stick
|description= The durability of the two carrots on sticks is added together, plus an extra 5% durability.
|type= Transportation
}}

== Usage ==

=== Riding a pig ===

To use a carrot on a stick, the player must first [[saddle]] a [[pig]], and ride it while holding the carrot on a stick. The pig then moves in the direction of the carrot. Also, if the player holds a carrot on a stick, all nearby pigs (but not [[rabbit]]s<ref>{{bug|MC-207993}}</ref>) follow the player, but they can't breed using carrot on a stick.

To make the pig run faster, the player can press {{control|use}} while holding the carrot on a stick. This is called "boosting". Each boost costs 7 durability. If the carrot on a stick's durability is depleted, it turns back into a fishing rod. 

The speed of a mounted pig is 2.42 m/s. Boosting a pig causes its speed to slowly ramp up until it reaches 2.15 times its normal speed, 5.20 m/s. Then speed slowly declines until the pig reaches normal speed again. The boost lasts between 140 and 980 game [[tick]]s (7 seconds and 49 seconds respectively), chosen randomly. No matter how many ticks the boost lasts, the average speed of pig during a full boost cycle is roughly 4.19 m/s. These boosted speeds are applied only while holding the carrot on a stick. These speeds are affected by the [[speed]] effect.

=== Enchantments ===

A carrot on a stick can receive the following enchantments, but only through an [[anvil]]:

New 'beta' launcher added. See Launcher version history for version history from this point onwards.

Version history

The new version 2.x launchers are no longer written in Java, and are a lot larger (~85MB). If you are short on space or need to run it cross-platform, you can try using the fifth launcher, version 1.6.93 here (~4.6MB).

2010–16

2016–19

2019–present

Backgrounds

Trivia

Launcher Creeper faceLauncher shrug emoji
  • In the top left corner of the 2016–2019 launcher, a barely visible button could be found which randomly shows either a creeper face or a shrug kaomoji ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. It glowed white when clicked, but had no use at all. This was removed in the 2019 redesign of the launcher.
    • The creeper face, as well as a shrug, were used for the language selection menu during the beta phase of the launcher, but when a globe was added instead both were simply moved down to be kept as an Easter egg.
  • Hovering long enough over the "Play" button in the 2016–2019 launcher causes random mobs to appear on the right side of the window.
