The current Minecraft launcher

The Minecraft launcher is the login and downloader front-end to the stand-alone client. It is responsible for downloading the main Java packages, including minecraft.jar and LWJGL, which holds the code and resources of the game such as textures. It also acts somewhat like a basic and easily bypassable copy-restriction by forcing the user to login to a paid account when running for the first time. It has been part of the stand-alone client since its inception. It is possible to use the launcher to run versions of Minecraft since Indev.

There have been four different development stages for the launcher, the first for the Alpha version, the second since the release of Minecraft 1.0, the third since 1.2, and the fourth and current 1.6 Launcher. The launcher's design last changed on July 18, 2013.

Behavior

Every time the launcher is executed, it checks a specific directory where Minecraft stores its files called .minecraft. It checks a file called "lastlogin" for login credentials. If the file does not exist or is corrupt the user must login with a valid premium account, otherwise the game will refuse to run.

When logging in, the launcher will first try to verify the login. If a valid "lastlogin" file exists but there is no internet connection, the launcher will offer a "Play offline" mode, allowing the user to play regardless. If the connection is successful, the launcher will then compare the "version" file in the "bin" directory to the latest version reported by the server. If the file does not exist or the installed version is outdated, the launcher will download all Minecraft components and Java binary files.

Finally, upon a successful update or installation, the launcher will execute "minecraft.jar". It is possible however for there to be a valid and up-to-date "version" file but missing ".jar" files, in which case the launcher will hang.

Currently, Minecraft launcher supports only English. Users cannot select their preferred language.

Command-line usage

minecraft.jar (all systems):

java -cp minecraft.jar net.minecraft.LauncherFrame <username> <password> <server:port>


minecraft.exe (Windows executable):

minecraft.exe <username> <password> <server:port>

minecraft.jar (Windows - no CMD window):

javaw -cp minecraft.jar net.minecraft.LauncherFrame <username> <password> <server:port>

As of the new launcher released with Minecraft 1.2.3, username and password options use a prefix.

--username=<username> or -u=<username> --password=<password> or -p=<password>

If using a server:port it must still be the 3rd option. So if not used with username and password, dummy options need to be added in their place.

No update option also added.

--noupdate

A new version of the launcher was released on April 18, 2013 (with snapshot 13w16a). It lets users choose the version they want to play, downloads all resources before launching the game and updates additional libraries (function previously unavailable). Later it will have more functionality as it currently is in its early development stage. Currently there is no demo for non-premium users. The launcher can automatically update itself; the most recent version is 1.2.1.

Features

  • Manage multiple profiles. Each profile can control:
    • Game version. Includes access to outdated development builds and previous releases. You can also add older/custom versions 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)
    • And so on.
  • The launcher doesn't store your password locally. Instead of this, it now uses a 'refresh token'.
  • Automatic updates for launcher.
  • Ability to update libraries, such as LWJGL.
  • Offline mode. (The first time launch requires an Internet connection to download required resources)
  • Currently only available in English.
  • Crashes can be reported to Mojang, through Hopper.
  • Crashes are now indexed through a database for information on how to fix the issue.

Command-line usage

MinecraftDev.jar (all systems):

java -cp Minecraft.jar net.minecraft.bootstrap.Bootstrap <username> <server:port>

'''Bamboo''' is a versatile, fast-growing, [[Bone Meal|bonemealable]] [[plant]] found primarily in [[jungle]]s, which is used for [[crafting]] (particularly [[scaffolding]] and [[Block of Bamboo|bamboo wood]]), [[smelting]] and [[breeding]] [[Panda|pandas]]. 

A '''bamboo shoot''' is the initial non-solid sapling form of planted bamboo.

== Obtaining ==
Bamboo shoots cannot be obtained through vanilla means. {{IN|bedrock}}, they can be obtained through [[add-on]]s or inventory editing. {{IN|java}}, they are completely unobtainable.

=== Breaking ===
Bamboo can be mined with any [[tool]], but a [[sword]] breaks the block [[instant mining|instantly]], even with [[Mining Fatigue]]. Flowing [[water]] also breaks bamboo shoots, but not mature bamboo stalks.

{{breaking row|Bamboo|Sword|sword=1|horizontal=1}}
{{notelist}}
=== Natural generation ===
Bamboo generates in widely scattered single shoots within [[jungle]] [[biome]]s. Bamboo generates much more densely in the [[bamboo jungle|bamboo variant]]s of jungles, covering large areas of the landscape. Bamboo does ''not'' generate in [[sparse jungle]]s.<ref>{{bug|MC-156638|||WAI}}</ref>

=== Mob loot ===
{{IN|java}}, a [[panda]] drops 1 bamboo when killed. [[Looting]] does not affect the drop rate.<ref>{{bug|MC-160006}}</ref>

{{IN|bedrock}}, a panda drops 0-2 bamboo when killed. Looting increases the drop by 1 per level.

=== Fishing ===
Bamboo can be found while [[fishing]] in [[jungle]] [[biome]]s as a junk [[item]].

=== Chest loot ===
{{LootChestItem|bamboo}}

== Usage ==
When broken, any bamboo [[block]] placed or grown above it is also broken. A bamboo block drops itself as an [[item]] if a [[piston]] pushes it or moves a block into its space. When bamboo is first placed as a shoot it's not solid and can be destroyed by water flowing into it. After growing at least one block taller it becomes solid and can't be destroyed by water. To transform a bamboo shoot into a solid bamboo block place another bamboo on top of it.

Unlike most plants, bamboo cannot be [[Composter#Composting|composted]].<ref>{{bug|MC-142452|||WAI}}</ref>

=== Farming ===
Bamboo can be planted on [[moss block]]s{{only|java|short=1}}, [[grass block]]s, [[dirt]], [[coarse dirt]], [[rooted dirt]], [[gravel]], [[mycelium]], [[podzol]], [[sand]], [[red sand]], [[suspicious sand]], [[suspicious gravel]], [[mud]], bamboo shoot, or on itself. At default random tick speed (3), each plant grows on average every {{convert|4096|ticks|seconds}}. When [[bone meal]] is {{control|used}} on it, it grows by 1–2 [[blocks]]. Bamboo can grow up to 12–16 blocks tall. The top of a bamboo plant requires a [[light]] level of 9 or above to grow.

Because bamboo breaks in almost the same way as [[sugar cane]]s, [[Tutorials/Sugar cane farming|a sugar cane farm]] can be easily adapted to this use. While water is not needed with such a farm, some spacing is recommended if the harvest is done manually as mature stalks are solid.

=== Pandas ===
Bamboo [[item]]s are eaten by [[panda]]s and can be used to speed up the growth of baby pandas. Bamboo can also be used to breed pandas when at least 8 [[block]]s of bamboo are within 5 blocks of the pandas, making the panda the only animal in the game to have extra breeding requirements. At this point, the [[player]] can feed them bamboo and they [[breeding|mate]] to have a baby.

=== Fuel ===
Bamboo can be used as fuel for [[smelting]]. Each bamboo item smelts 0.25 [[item]]s. Crafting two bamboo into a [[stick]] and using that as fuel is equivalent, smelting 0.5 items. 

Bamboo can be crafted into other items to increase its fuel efficiency.
* By crafting 9 bamboo into 2 [[bamboo planks]], 3 items can be smelted instead of 2.25, a 33.3% increase in efficiency.
** {{IN|bedrock}}, the fuel efficiency can be further doubled by crafting the bamboo planks into twice the amount of [[slab]]s.<ref>{{bug|MCPE-94368||Wooden slabs last for the same amount of time as planks in a furnace}}</ref>
* {{IN|java}}, by crafting 14 bamboo into 3 [[ladder]]s, 4.5 items can be smelted instead of 3.5, a 28.6% increase in efficiency.

=== Flower pots ===
Bamboo can be placed in a [[flower pot]], where it retains the design it has in its item form.

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

== Appearance ==
[[File:Bamboo stages.png|thumb|The different stages of bamboo growth.]]

The appearance of bamboo changes as it grows. When first placed, it takes the form of a small shoot, which has no [[hitbox]]. When it grows one [[block]] taller it grows to 2 pixels in length and width and the top block has leaves coming off it. At 3 blocks, the top 2 blocks have leaves and at 4 blocks the bamboo expands to 3×3 pixels. At 5 blocks tall, the top 3 blocks have leaves on them. As the bamboo grows, the leaves move up and stay at the top 3 blocks. Destroying a block of bamboo does not change the appearance of the blocks below it. Bamboo is oriented at a random position in the block that it is in.

{{:Technical blocks/Bamboo Shoot}}

== Issues ==
{{Issue list}}

== Trivia ==
* Because bamboo grows quickly (on average 1 growth per 200 seconds), just 500 plants in an automatic farm produce more [[item]]s than a [[hopper]] can collect (2.5 items per second). A single hopper can move only enough items to keep 6.25 [[furnace]]s running.
* Bamboo is the fastest-growing plant in ''[[Minecraft]]'', which reflects its status as the fastest-growing plant known in real life.
* While bamboo cannot be composted in ''Minecraft'', it can be composted in real life.

A '''cauldron''' is a [[block]] that can contain [[water]], [[lava]] or [[powder snow]] and, in certain situations, collect it from the environment. {{IN|bedrock}}, it can also hold [[potion]]s or dyed water. It also serves as a [[leatherworker]]'s [[job site block]].

== Obtaining ==
=== Breaking ===

A cauldron can be obtained using any [[pickaxe]]. If mined without a pickaxe, it drops nothing. Regardless of the tool, when a cauldron is destroyed, its contents are lost.
{{breaking row|horizontal=1|Cauldron|Pickaxe|Wood}}

=== Natural generation ===

[[File:Natural Cauldron Table.png|A naturally occurring cauldron inside of a [[witch hut]].|thumb]]

A single empty cauldron is generated in each [[swamp hut]]. {{IN|be}}, the cauldrons generated there are {{frac|1|3}} to {{frac|2|3}} full of a random [[potion]].

A cauldron {{frac|2|3}} full of water is generated in each [[igloo]] basement.
[[File:MansionJailInner.png|thumb|Cauldron in [[woodland mansion]] jail.]]
Cauldrons can be found in a few rooms inside of [[woodland mansion]]s.

Two filled cauldrons can be found inside savanna, taiga, snowy taiga, and snowy tundra [[village]] tannery houses.

A single filled cauldron can be found in plains village and desert village tannery houses.

{{IN|java}}, three filled cauldrons can be found in plains village tannery houses.

Cauldrons can also spawn in [[trail ruins]].

=== Crafting ===

A cauldron can be crafted from [[iron ingot]]s.

|C1= Iron Ingot
|A2= Iron Ingot
|C2= Iron Ingot
|A3= Iron Ingot
|B3= Iron Ingot
|C3= Iron Ingot
|Output= Cauldron
|type= Brewing
}}

== Usage ==

=== Storage for substances ===
Cauldrons can hold a variety of substances. Fluids they cannot hold include [[milk]], [[Honey Bottle|honey]] and any food items that exist in [[bowl]]s; namely [[mushroom stew]], [[beetroot soup]], [[rabbit stew]] and [[suspicious stew]]. {{IN|java}}, cauldrons containing fluids are considered by the game to be separate blocks from each other and from empty cauldrons, which does not affect gameplay but does affect the commands needed to place them.

==== Holding water ====
A cauldron can be filled with [[water]] by {{control|using}} a [[water bucket]] on the cauldron. Once completely filled, a cauldron can be used to fill a water bucket by {{control|using}} an empty [[bucket]] on the cauldron; this empties the cauldron. Despite containing water, using a [[fish bucket]] on a cauldron does not fill it with water, but places water against it, meaning it does nothing to the cauldron.<ref>{{bug|MC-129109|||WAI}}</ref>

A cauldron can also be filled by dumping a water bucket on the block above the cauldron. Once the water block is removed, the cauldron is filled to the full level with water.{{only|be}}

It can contain three levels of water. One level of water can be added to a cauldron by {{control|using}} a [[water bottle]] on it. One level of water can be removed from a cauldron, filling a water bottle, by {{control|using}} a [[glass bottle]] on it.

A cauldron slowly fills with [[water]] when [[rain]]ed upon, if starting empty or with some water. This happens randomly, at 5% of the rate in which snow accumulates on the ground during [[snowfall]].

Water can be stored in a cauldron even in [[the Nether]]. Water in a cauldron does not freeze in cold biomes.

Water in a cauldron does ''not'' absorb [[explosion]] damage; make [[sound]]s and [[particle]]s; absorb fall damage;<ref>{{bug|MC-176867|||WF}}</ref><ref>{{bug|MCPE-104572|||WF}}</ref> allow [[Riptide]] [[trident]]s to activate;<ref>{{bug|MC-145311|||WF}}</ref><ref>{{bug|MCPE-93111}}</ref> or damage [[endermen]], [[strider]]s, or [[blaze]]s.<ref>{{bug|MC-106813|||WF}}</ref> Cauldrons do ''not'' deal drowning damage to mobs inside of them<ref>{{bug|MC-152680}}</ref> and [[fish]] act as if there is no water inside it.<ref>{{bug|MC-126819|||WF}}</ref> The player ''cannot'' float or [[swim]] in it, as the water is about level with the player's waist. Jumping in a cauldron does ''not'' produce any bubble or water particles.

A cauldron placed below a down-facing [[pointed dripstone]] that has water placed a block above it slowly fills with water. The same works with [[lava]], allowing for infinite lava generation.

Attempting to add lava or potion to water empties the cauldron.{{only|be}} 


The water in a cauldron cannot be sucked up by a [[sponge]], whether the sponge is touching the cauldron or not. 

===== Applying dye to cauldron water =====
{{exclusive|bedrock|section=yes}}

{{IN|bedrock}}, leather armor is dyed through a cauldron, so a cauldron can hold dyed [[water]]. {{control|Using}} a dye on a cauldron filled with water colors the water, consuming the dye. Different dyes may be added to produce mixed colors. {{control|Using}} [[leather armor]] or [[leather horse armor]] on the cauldron dyes that item the color of the water, reducing the water in the cauldron by one level for each item dyed.

Attempting to add water, lava or potion to dyed water empties the cauldron.

==== Holding lava ====
[[File:Lava Cauldron.png|150px|thumb|Cauldron filled with lava]]

Cauldrons can be used to hold lava. {{IN|be|ee}}, when a cauldron is already filled with water, it empties the cauldron and makes an extinguishing sound. A cauldron filled with lava emits a light level of 15, similar to lava, and burns any [[entity]] inside of it; {{in|be|ee|short=1}}, this includes mobs that do not take damage from lava like [[zombified piglin]]s.

Lava inside a cauldron does not interact with water outside of the cauldron. The lava disappears upon putting water in the cauldron.

A [[redstone comparator]] with a lava cauldron behind it outputs redstone signal strength of 3.<ref name=JavaLava>{{bug|MC-204393}}</ref><ref>{{bug|MCPE-104824}}</ref>

A cauldron placed below a down-facing [[pointed dripstone]] that has lava placed a block above it slowly fills with lava.

If a cauldron is filled by lava, using glass bottles on the cauldron does nothing.

==== Holding powder snow ====
[[Powder snow]] is currently the only solid material that can be stored in a cauldron. A cauldron slowly fills with powder snow during [[snowfall]], if starting empty or with any layer of powder snow already inside. Up to three layers can be filled. When the cauldron is full, {{ctrl|interacting}} using a [[bucket]], creates a [[powder snow bucket]] and empties the cauldron. Entities standing in the cauldron do not take freeze damage, and entities wearing [[leather boots]] still fall through the powder snow.

A [[redstone comparator]] with a powder snow cauldron behind it outputs a redstone signal strength proportional to the fill level, up to 3.

Contrary to a cauldron filled with water, a powder snow cauldron that is not full cannot be filled up with a powder snow bucket, as {{control|using}} the bucket on the cauldron instead places powder snow against it.

==== Filling cauldrons with potions ====
{{exclusive|bedrock|education|section=yes}}

{{IN|bedrock}}, a cauldron can hold normal [[potion]]s, [[splash potion]]s and [[lingering potion]]s. {{control|Using}} a potion on a cauldron empties the potion and increases the level of the potion in the cauldron by one level. A glass bottle can then be {{control|used}} on a cauldron with a potion in it, filling the bottle with that potion. This reduces the potion in the cauldron by one level.

{{control|Using}} an [[arrow]] on a cauldron that contains a potion transforms the arrow into a [[tipped arrow]] with that potion [[effect]], and reduce the potion in the cauldron by one level. Tipping multiple arrows at once can be more efficient, and it may use more than one level at once. 1 level of potion tips up to 16 arrows, 2 levels up to 32, and a full cauldron can tip a full stack of arrows, resulting in 21.33 tipped arrows per potion.

Attempting to put [[water]], [[lava]] or a different potion into a cauldron with a potion causes an explosion sound, and the cauldron is emptied.

An entity that stands in a cauldron filled to any level with any potion does not receive the effect of the potion.

Using an empty bucket on a cauldron filled with any potion does nothing, as the bucket remains empty and the potion in the cauldron does not empty.

=== Removing dye from items ===

A cauldron with [[water]] can wash the dye off of leather [[armor]] and [[shulker box]]es, and can remove the top-most pattern layer of a [[banner]], by pressing {{control|use}} on the cauldron with the leather armor, shulker box, or banner in hand. Each wash reduces the water in the cauldron by one level. The water does not become dyed while removing dye from objects.

=== Changing profession ===
If a [[village]] has a cauldron that has not been claimed by a [[villager]], any villager that does not already have a profession or [[job site]] block may change their profession to [[leatherworker]].

=== Extinguishing fire ===

A cauldron with [[water]] or [[powder snow]] extinguishes [[entities]] on [[fire]] that fall into it and the entity emits black particles. This includes [[mob]]s, [[player]]s, [[item]]s (if they land in the cauldron before burning up), and flaming [[arrow]]s{{only|je|short=1}}. Flaming arrows stuck into the side are also extinguished. Entities must reach the water or powder snow in it. Each entity extinguished causes the substance in the cauldron to decrease by one level. If the cauldron is filled with powder snow, it then becomes a water cauldron.

=== Redstone component ===
[[File:Cauldron transmission over piston.png|An example of a cauldron used in a [[redstone]] circuit.|thumb]]
{{see also|Redstone circuit}}

A cauldron can act as a power source for a [[redstone comparator]]. With a cauldron behind it (either directly, or separated by an unpowered solid block), a comparator outputs a signal strength proportional to how full the cauldron is: 0 for empty, 1 for one-third full, 2 for two-thirds full, and 3 for completely full or filled with lava. However, if there is a block between the cauldron and the comparator, the comparator does not immediately update.

{{Item
| image = Footprint (item).png

The '''Footprint''' was a joke item from [[Java Edition 20w14∞]], found only in the {{code|missing}} dimension.

== Appearance ==
This item is semi-transparent with a grey colour scheme.

== Obtaining ==

=== Dimension ===
Footprints were obtained only from a chest in the {{Code|missing}} dimension. Only existing in 2020 April fools snapshot 20w14∞, it cannot exist in any non-April Fool's joke versions and April Fool's joke versions before or after 20w14∞. There is a maximum of 2 footprints that can be obtained legitimately in any given world.

=== Cheats/Creative Mode ===
Despite these footprints not being available in the creative inventory, it is still possible to acquire them via the command {{Code|code=give <target> minecraft:footprint <amount>}} or duplicating them by holding down middle-click whilst in creative mode.

== Usage ==
As of snapshot 20w14∞, this item cannot be placed or used in any way other than a trophy. This item can be inserted and/or rotated inside of an item frame, and it has a stack limit of 64.

A '''melon slice'''{{efn|Known as '''Melon Slice''' {{in|java}} and '''Melon''' {{in|bedrock}}.}} is a [[food]] item that can be eaten by the [[player]].

== Obtaining ==

=== Block loot ===

{{see also|Tutorials/Pumpkin and melon farming|title1 = Pumpkin and melon farming}}

Melon slices can be obtained by breaking (harvesting) [[melon]]s using any [[tool]] or by hand. [[Axe]]s, followed by [[sword]]s, are the fastest tools for harvesting melons.  A melon drops 3–7 melon slices, when broken; by hand, using a [[tool]], or after being broken by the movement of a [[piston]], with an average of 4.64 slices per melon.

Breaking a melon with a tool enchanted with [[Fortune]] increases the potential number of drops by 1 slice per level, up to a maximum of 9 slices.

== Usage ==

=== Food ===
{{see also|Tutorials/Hunger management|title1=Hunger management}}

To eat a melon slice, press and hold {{control|use}} while it is selected in the hotbar. Eating one restores {{hunger|2}} [[hunger]] and 1.2 hunger 
[[Hunger#Mechanics|saturation]].

=== Crafting ingredient ===

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

'''Raw chicken''' is a [[food]] item that can be eaten by the [[player]]. It can be cooked in a [[furnace]], [[smoker]], or a [[campfire]] to make [[cooked chicken]].

==Obtaining==

===Mob loot ===

Upon death, an adult [[chicken]] drops 1 raw chicken. The maximum is increased by 1 per level of [[Looting]], for a maximum of 1-4 with Looting III. Chickens that die while on [[fire]] drop [[cooked chicken]] instead.

===Cat gifts===
{{main|Cat#Gifts}}

Tamed [[cat]]s have a 70% chance to give the [[player]] a gift as they wake up from a [[bed]], and the gift has a 16.13% chance to be raw chicken.

==Usage==

=== Food===

To eat raw chicken, press and hold {{control|use}} while it is selected in the hotbar. Eating one restores {{hunger|2}} hunger and 1.2 hunger [[Hunger#Mechanics|saturation]], but has a 30% chance of inflicting food poisoning (the {{EffectLink|link=Hunger (status effect)|Hunger}} effect for 30 seconds).

<nowiki>*This has a similar effect as [[Rotten Flesh]].

===Smelting ingredient===

A '''golden apple''' is a [[food]] item that bestows beneficial effects when consumed, and is also used to cure a [[Zombie Villager|zombie villager]] under the [[Weakness]] effect into a normal [[villager]].

== Obtaining ==
=== Crafting ===
{{Crafting

|B2= Apple
|C2= Gold Ingot

|B3= Gold Ingot
|C3= Gold Ingot
|Output= Golden Apple
|type= Foodstuff
}}

=== Chest loot ===
On the base of <code>ancient_city/city_center/city_center_2</code>, a single golden apple is contained in the [[chest]]. Eating it at that location unlocks the [[piston]] doors to the [[redstone]] labs beneath.
{{LootChestItem|golden-apple}}

== Usage ==
{{see also|Tutorials/Hunger management|title1=Hunger management}}

To eat a golden apple, press and hold {{control|use}} while it is selected in the hotbar. It restores {{hunger|4}} points of hunger and 9.6 hunger [[Hunger#Mechanics|saturation]].

Unlike most foods, golden apples can be eaten when the hunger bar is full.

The golden apple provides: 
*[[Absorption]] I for 2 minutes (providing {{hp|4|absorption=1}} points of absorption health)
*[[Regeneration]] II ({{hp|1}} every 25 ticks, {{hp|2|notag=1}} × 0.4 per second) for 5 seconds (long enough to heal {{hp|4}} points of damage)

=== Curing zombie villagers ===
{{main|Zombie Villager#Curing}}

A golden apple and a [[potion of weakness]] can be used to convert a [[zombie villager]] into a regular [[villager]].

=== Horses ===
Golden apples can be used for improving the chances of taming a [[horse]] by 10%, for [[breeding]] and leading horses, and for speeding up the growth of baby horses by 4 minutes.

===Piglins===
{{EntityLink|Piglin|Piglins}} are attracted to golden apples. They run toward any golden apples on the ground, and inspect it for 6 to 8 seconds before putting it in their inventory. However, piglins do not eat golden apples (or any [[food]]).

== Issues ==
{{issue list}}

== Trivia ==
Prior to [[Java Edition Beta 1.8]], the golden apple outwardly restored the player's full {{hp|20}} health points; Internally however, it is set to restore over double that, at {{hp|42}} health points. This is most likely a reference to [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hitchhiker's_Guide_to_the_Galaxy The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy], making it restore (the meaning of) life, 42 (health points). This is far before either the [[Absorption]] or [[Health Boost]] effects, causing this reference go unnoticed.

An '''armor stand''' is an inanimate [[entity]] that can wear [[armor]]. It can also hold [[Item|items]] and be posed (but these are not possible in [[Survival]] in [[Java Edition]]).

== Obtaining ==
An armor stand can be broken by quickly {{control|attack|text=attacking}} it twice, dropping itself and any armor placed onto it.

=== Crafting ===
{{Crafting

|B1= Stick
|C1= Stick  
|B2= Stick

|B3= Smooth Stone Slab
|C3= Stick
|Output= Armor Stand
|type=Decoration block
}}

=== Natural generation ===
Two armor stands are found in each taiga [[village]] outdoor armory, one equipped with an [[iron helmet]], the other with an [[iron chestplate]].

== Usage ==
[[Player]]s can use armor stands to hold [[armor]], [[mob head]]s, [[carved pumpkin]]s, and [[elytra]]. [[Commands]] can be used to give them other [[item]]s. The stand does not have a GUI, so players interact with it directly. Armor stands are also able to be placed in different orientations, similar to [[banner]]s or [[sign]]s. Armor stands are [[entity|entities]], allowing them to be pushed by [[piston]]s, moved by flowing [[water]], pulled with [[fishing rod]]s, pushed by players (with knockback), and bounced by [[slime block]]s. 

{{Control|use|text=Using}} armor on the stand places the armor if done on a bare spot. Conversely, clicking on armor with a bare hand removes the armor and places it in the highlighted hotbar slot. It is not possible to take or place items from the armor stand's hands unless playing on Bedrock Edition.

Armor, mob heads, or carved pumpkins can be automatically placed on armor stands with a [[dispenser]].

Armor stands can be customized further to have arms, pose, disobey gravity, dual wield and other things by summoning them using {{cmd|summon}} with [[Chunk format#ArmorStand|NBT tags]].

In maps heavily using [[command blocks]], armor stands can be used to keep [[scoreboard]] objectives that are 'global' to the map, run [[commands]], etc. 

{{IN|bedrock}}, the pose of the armor stand can be changed by interacting with the armor stand (or pressing the {{btn|Pose|be=1}} button on mobile devices) while sneaking, or by using a redstone signal. There are 13 possible poses. Armor stands can also hold items by interacting with the armor stand (or pressing the {{btn|Equip|be=1}} button on mobile devices) while holding an item that cannot be worn.

== Behavior ==

Because armor stands are entities, they obey gravity, allowing them to fall and rest on non-full [[block]]s such as [[enchanting table]]s, [[snow layer]]s and [[slab]]s.

Any [[armor]] on the stand drops when the stand is broken. Armor stands can display [[enchanting|enchanted]] and all forms of [[dye]]d armor. The effects of most enchanted armor have no effect when on an armor stand, with three exceptions: 
* [[Frost Walker]] creates [[frosted ice]] blocks on [[water]] as usual if an armor stand is pushed with a [[piston]].
* [[Depth Strider]] slows the movement of the armor stand when being pushed with water. 
* A [[player]] may take damage from hitting an armor stand that holds armor enchanted with [[Thorns]].

Armor stands are not damaged by [[cacti]] but can be broken by [[arrow]]s. An armor stand destroyed by an explosion or a firework does not drop as an [[item (entity)|item]]. Armor stands in water and [[lava]] at the same time are not consumed by the lava.

{{IN|be}}, armor stands can be affected by [[status effect]]s. They can be 'killed' by [[Harming]] and [[Decay]] [[splash potion|splash]]/[[lingering potion]]s, lava, [[fire]], and [[campfire]]s, and they play the player death sound and fall to their side and disappear, yielding no armor stand item. If an armor stand is equipped with an item or armor, that item or armor is considered as "naturally-spawned equipment" with an 8.5% chance of dropping when the armor stand "dies" from the [[Instant Damage]] or the [[Wither (status effect)|Wither]] status effect. If the dropped item is any form of [[weapon]], [[tool]] or armor, it drops in a badly damaged state because the game considers it as "naturally-spawned equipment".<ref>{{Bug|MCPE-24341}}</ref>

The stand wobbles slightly when being hit by the player.

{{IN|java}}, it is possible to create an armor stand with arms using the {{cmd|summon}} [[command]]. It is also possible to change an armor stand without arms into a stand with arms by using the {{cmd|data}} command. The commands are as follows:

* <code>/data merge entity @e[type=armor_stand,sort=nearest,limit=1] {ShowArms:1}</code>, which changes the nearest armor stand into an armor stand with arms.
* <code>/summon minecraft:armor_stand ~ ~ ~ {ShowArms:1}</code>, which summons a new armor stand with arms shown.
*<code>/summon armor_stand ~ ~ ~ {Rotation:[0.0f]}</code>, which summons a new armor stand that faces a desired direction (dependent on changing "0.0f" to other numbers like "90.0f" or "180.0f", otherwise it faces the same way as a default armor stand).

== Issues ==
{{issue list}}

== Trivia ==
* Equipping armor stands with certain [[block]]s and [[item]]s can cause rendering glitches. According to [[Searge]] this is due to transparent rendering on entities not yet being supported.<ref>{{bug|MC-67415||"Armor Stands with Slime Block rendering entities behind them"}} resolved as "Won't Fix"</ref><ref>{{bug|MC-67674||"Armor Stand wearing a Skull and Holding Stained Glass causes Graphical issues"}} resolved as "Won't Fix"</ref>
* Bedrock Edition has a version exclusive armor stand [[model]], which includes posable arms.
*Using [[redstone]] to change the stands reverse the poses, starting with the can-can pose first.
*Placing the stand within three powered [[redstone dust]] always changes its pose to the honor pose. [[Redstone Repeater|Repeaters]] also switch the stand to the honor pose if not set four blocks from one.
*Using external tools, armor stand spawners can be placed.
*Secret signatures for [[Jasper Boerstra|JAPPA]], Chi Wong, and [[Michael Stoyke|Searge]] can be found at the bottom of the armor stand texture.

'''Cooked cod''' is a food item obtained by cooking [[raw cod]].

== Obtaining ==

=== Mob loot ===
====Cod====
[[Cod]] always drops 1 [[Raw Cod|raw cod]] when killed, unaffected by Looting.<ref>{{bug|MC-212795||Salmon & Fish mobs are not affected by Looting}}</ref> If it is killed while on [[fire]], it drops 1 cooked cod instead.
====Dolphins ====
When killed, [[Dolphin|dolphins]] drop 0–1 raw cod. The maximum amount is increased by 1 per level of [[Looting]], for a maximum of 0-4 with Looting III. If killed while on fire, they drop cooked cod instead.
====Guardians and elder guardians====
[[Guardian]]s and [[elder guardian]]s have a 40% and 50% chance, respectively, to drop raw cod when killed. {{IN|java}}, cooked cod is dropped if a guardian is on fire when killed.

Guardians and elder guardians also drop a 2.5% chance to drop a random fish, with 60% of them being raw cod, which drops as cooked if the guardian was on fire. The chance of getting the fish drop is increased by 1% per level with [[Looting]] (for a maximum of 5.5% with Looting III), but the type of fish is not affected.
====Polar bears====
[[Polar bear]]s have a 75% chance of dropping 0–2 raw cod when killed. The maximum amount can be increased by 1 per level of Looting, for a maximum of 0-5 with Looting III. If killed while on fire, they drop cooked cod instead.
===Chest loot===
{{LootChestItem|cooked-cod}}

===Cooking===

Cooked cod can be obtained by cooking [[raw cod]] in a [[furnace]], [[smoker]], or [[campfire]]. 

{{smelting|Raw Cod|Cooked Cod|0,35}}

===Trading===

Novice-level Fisherman [[Villager|villagers]] have a 50% chance to sell 6 cooked cod for 6 raw cod and 1 [[emerald]].

== Usage ==

=== Food ===

To eat cooked cod, press and hold {{control|use}} while it is selected in the hotbar. Eating one restores {{hunger|5}} [[hunger]] and 6 hunger [[Hunger#Mechanics|saturation]].

=== Wolves ===

{{IN|Bedrock}}, cooked cod can be used to feed a wolf not at full health, healing by {{hp|5|mob=1}}. However, unlike other wolf food, cooked cod cannot be used to speed up the growth of baby wolves nor used to breed them.

A '''saddle''' is an [[item]] required to ride [[Pig|pigs]] and [[Strider|striders]] or control ridden [[camel]]s, [[Horse|horses]], [[Donkey|donkeys]] and [[Mule|mules]].

== Obtaining ==
=== Chest loot ===
{{LootChestItem|saddle}}

=== Fishing ===
Saddles can be obtained as a "treasure" item from [[fishing]] with a base chance (without fishing rod enchantments) of 0.8%.

=== Trading ===
Master-level [[Trading#Leatherworker|leatherworker]] [[villager]]s have a 50% chance to sell a saddle for 6 [[Emerald|emeralds]] as their trade.{{only|bedrock}} This trade is always offered in ''Java Edition''.

=== Mob loot ===
Any mob that the player equips with a saddle drops the saddle upon death.

A [[strider]] may spawn being ridden by a [[zombified piglin]], which causes it to spawn wearing a saddle. This saddle always drops when the strider is killed.

A [[ravager]] always spawns with a saddle and always drops the saddle upon death. Looting does not affect the drop.

== Usage ==
[[File:SaddledHorse.png|thumb|right|A [[horse]] equipped with a saddle.]]
While [[camel]]s, [[horse]]s, [[donkey]]s, [[mule]]s and [[Skeleton Horse|skeleton horse]]s{{Only|Java}} can always be ridden, a saddle is required to control them. These mobs (only after being tamed, in the case of equine mobs) can be equipped with a saddle by placing it in their inventory, which can be opened by pressing {{control|use}} while holding a saddle or {{control|sneaking}}. The saddle can be unequipped by removing it from {{SlotSprite|Saddle}} the specific inventory slot. 

Saddles are required to ride [[Pig|pigs]] and [[Strider|striders]], but even with a saddle their movement cannot be controlled like other mobs. A [[Carrot on a Stick|carrot on a stick]] (for pigs) or a [[Warped Fungus on a Stick|warped fungus on a stick]] (for striders) is required to direct these mobs. {{control|Using}} a saddle on one of these mobs equips them with the saddle, and, since they have no inventory, there is no way to retrieve the saddle without killing the mob.

Animals can also be equipped with saddles by a [[dispenser]].

Although [[ravager]]s are equipped with saddles and sometimes ridden by other mobs, the [[player]] is unable to ride ravagers.

This variation is called an "empty map". It does not show location markers. It is intended for cloning and zooming locator maps without having to consume an additional [[compass]] (thereby saving [[iron ingot]]s and [[redstone dust]]), but it can also be {{Control|use|text=activated}} and later converted to a locator map by combining it with a compass on an [[anvil]], [[crafting table]], or [[cartography table]].

=== Natural generation ===
==== Chest loot ====
{{LootChestItem|empty-map,map 
}}

=== Cartography table ===
A map can also be created using a single paper on a [[cartography table]] to create an empty map, or a paper with a compass for an empty locator map.{{only|bedrock}}

=== Starting map ===
{{exclusive|bedrock|section=1}}
When creating a new world {{in|bedrock}}, the player can enable the "Starting Map" option to spawn with an empty locator map in the hotbar. The map's zoom scale is 1:8. The map is updated only while the player holds it.

=== Trading ===
Novice-level cartographer [[Villager|villagers]] sell a single empty map for 7 [[Emerald|emeralds]] as their trades.

{{IN|java}}, cartographer villagers may give players with the [[Hero of the Village]] effect an empty map.

== Usage ==
{{See also|Tutorials/Mapping}}

=== Mapping ===

Crafting a map creates an empty map. The map is drawn for the first time when it is held and used (with ''{{control|use item}}''). This map can then be adjusted to different zoom levels. After conversion to a drawn map item, it starts to draw a top-down view of the player's surroundings, with North pointing to the top of the map. A pointed oval pointer indicates the player's position on the map, and moves in real-time as the player moves across the terrain shown on the map. The map does ''not'' center on the player when created, rather, the world is broken up into large invisible grid squares, and the map displays the area of whichever grid square it is in when it is first used. For example, if a player uses a new map in a certain grid square, and then moves a distance away and uses another fresh map but is still within the same grid square, both maps appear identical. To make a map that is not identical to the first one, the player would have to move outside of the edges of the first map (because then they would be in a new grid square). This way, no two maps of the same size can ever partially overlap and every map can display only a fixed area.

To record the world on a map, that specific map must be held in the player's hands while the player moves around the world. The world is recorded as-is during exploration, meaning that if the world is modified, a player must revisit the area while holding the map to update the map's view. Maps can also be [[Map#Cloning|cloned]]. If a player holds a map whose clone is on display in an item frame, then that map updates while holding its clone. 

Other players are displayed on the map only if they have a map in their inventory cloned from the one being looked at. When placing a map into an [[item frame]], the map displays with a green pointer shown at the location of the item frame. This is to help the player see where they are in relation to the area that the map is showing. If the player leaves a map in an item frame and views a clone of it, the green pointer remains in the spot of the framed copy. This can be used to set up waypoints. Unexplored areas are transparent, making the item frame visible.

When the player leaves the area shown on a specific map, the player pointer transforms into a white dot on that map. The marker shrinks to a smaller white dot if the player is far from the map's center: the area is 320 by 320 blocks per scale factor. The dot moves along the edge of the map to show the relative location of the player. However {{in|bedrock}}, the pointer remains as an arrow but shrinks until the player is near the area shown on the map.

While maps in [[the Nether]] work, they show only the red-and-gray pattern, regardless of the blocks placed. The only useful function is finding where the player is in relation to placed framed maps, which show as green pointers.  Additionally, the player pointer rapidly spins and is not a good indicator of direction. Placing a [[banner]] in [[the Nether]] still shows it on the map as usual.  Having a smaller map image while riding a [[strider]] in the Nether can help one to see one's footing while traveling over [[lava]].

{{IN|java}}, when using a map from another dimension, the map shows the player's position and direction when they were last in the dimension of the map. {{IN|bedrock}}, however, the player can use maps from one dimension while in another dimension. For locator maps, the place marker changes color depending on the dimension that the player is currently in (white for the Overworld, red for [[the Nether]], and magenta for [[the End]]). An Overworld map in the Nether shows the player's corresponding location and direction in the Overworld.<ref name=multiverse>{{ytl|EpP1diZdEdI}}</ref> Similarly, a Nether Map in the Overworld shows the player's corresponding location in the Overworld, but the place marker spins, just like a Nether map in the Nether. An Overworld map in the End shows the world spawn.<ref name=multiverse/> A Nether map cannot be used in the End — the map appears, but the place marker is not shown anywhere — and similarly, an End map cannot be used in the Overworld or the Nether.

A player can make a large piece of pixel art (128×128) facing upward, center a map on it, and place that map in an [[item frame]] to create a custom picture. Locking is recommended. See [[Map item format#Map Pixel Art]] for details on the techniques.

Maps display as a mini-map when held in the off-hand, or if the off-hand slot is occupied; the map is full-sized only when held in the dominant hand with both hands free.

=== Map content ===
{{Main|Map item format}}

Maps consist of square pixels arranged like pixels in a 128×128 square pattern, with each pixel representing a square portion of land. {{IN|java}}, the [[Map item format#Color table|color of a map pixel]] generally matches the color of the most common [[opaque]] block in the corresponding area, as seen from the sky. 'Minority blocks' in the target area have no effect on the color of the pixel, thus small features tend to be undetectable on zoomed-out maps.

{{IN|bedrock}}, the [[Map item format#Color table|color of a map pixel]] instead matches the single top-most opaque block in a grid sized by the map magnification pixel size (see the table in the "Player marker and pointer" section below). For example, a 3/4 magnification map has a pixel size of 8x8 blocks; this means the map will read only the top-most opaque blocks at the 0,0 coordinate, the 8,0 coordinate, the 0,8 coordinate, etcetera, ignoring all other blocks in the area. This means that {{in|bedrock}}, map pixel art requires only one block per pixel regardless of map magnification.

{{IN|bedrock}}, grass, foliage and water colors that are biome-dependent are represented accurately on a map.

Maps also show ground up to about 15 blocks below the surface of the water in oceans as slightly lighter blue, to show where the ground rises. This is not true with land above water. Higher elevations in the world mean lighter colors on the map. The map records the surface even as the player moves below the surface.

A standard map represents 128x128 blocks (1 block per pixel, 8x8 [[chunks]]) but maps can be zoomed-out to represent up to 2048x2048 blocks (16 square blocks per pixel, 128x128 [[chunks]]).

Some relevant distances: 64 blocks (4 chunks) is the update radius from a player in the Overworld and the End. However, it is half this (32 blocks) in the Nether. Also, 1024 blocks is the minimum Overworld distance from a [[nether portal]], at which players can build another portal and expect to reach a new location in the Nether. This is the distance across a 1:8 map, and also from a 1:16 map's center to its edge.

=== Player marker and pointer ===
{{IN|java}}, every map contains a marker that marks the position of the player, and points in the same direction as the player. When a player moves out of a map, a big white dot appears and moves relative to the player's position. The pointer either disappears when the player moves away a certain distance from the border of the map or, in case of [[explorer map]]s, the big white dot changes to a smaller white dot. The distance required for the small white dot to appear(explorer maps) or for the big dot to vanish (normal maps) changes with the scaling of the map.
* '''Level 0/4 :''' 128×128 blocks (each map pixel represents 1 block)
* '''Level 1/4 :''' 256×256 blocks (2×2 blocks per map pixel)
* '''Level 2/4 :''' 512×512 blocks (4×4 blocks per map pixel)

* '''Level 4/4 :'''  2048×2048 blocks  (16×16 blocks per map pixel)
{{IN|bedrock}}, a map can be crafted with or without this marker, and a map without a position marker can add one later by adding a compass to the map.  When a map is crafted without a compass, it's simply called an "empty map", but when crafted with a compass, it's called an "empty locator map". The marker also turns red if the player enters the Nether with an Overworld map and shows the player's Overworld location relative to the Nether location. A map created in the End has a purple marker showing the player's location. If an Overworld map is used in the End, a magenta dot appears on the player's spawn point.{{/BE|position}}

{{IN|bedrock}}, a cartography table can also be used to add a pointer to create a locator map or empty locator map. This can be done by adding a compass to paper, or to an empty map or map.

=== Zooming out ===
[[File:Cartography table UI zoom.png|thumb|300px|{{IN|java}}, cartography table's UI, showing the map is being zoomed out.]]

A [[cartography table]] can also be used to zoom out, taking only one piece of paper per zoom level.

A blank map can not be zoomed out. A map has to have something already marked on it for the zooming to be possible.

Maps are always aligned to a grid at all zoom levels. That means zooming out any different map in a specific area covered by that map always has the same center. As such, maps are aligned by map width (1024 blocks for a level 3 maps) minus 64. A level 3 map generated at spawn covers X and Z coordinates from -64 to 959. All maps generated in this area zoom out to the same coordinates, guaranteeing that they are always 'aligned' on a map wall. For a zoomed-out map to cover a new area, it must start with a base (level 0) map that is in that area.

At zoom level 0, a map created on the point (0,0) has (0,0) at the center of the map. At higher zoom levels of the same map, the coordinate (0,0) is in the top left square of the map.

{{IN|java}}, zoom level can be seen on a map by turning on Advanced Tooltips (a [[Debug screen#More debug keys|debug screen]] option that can be toggled by using the key combination {{key|F3+H}}). The tooltip of the map then shows the zoom level, scaling factors, and map ID.

=== Cloning ===
[[File:Cartography table UI clone.png|thumb|300px|{{IN|Java}}, cartography table's UI, showing the map is being cloned.]]

A mix of empty maps and empty locator maps may be used. Whether the cloned maps show position markers is dependent only on the input map.

A [[cartography table]] can also be used to clone a map.

The parts of the world that have already been explored and mapped are copied, and newly explored areas appear on both instances. If one of the maps is later zoomed out, then the maps lose their connection to each other and function as completely separate maps that have to be individually filled by exploring.

In Creative mode, a map in an item frame may be cloned by using {{control|pick block}} on it, as long as that map is not also in the player's inventory.

It doesn't matter if the map to be cloned is at a higher zoom level (made of more paper) than the blank map. Upon copying the map, both resulting maps have the same magnification as the starting map.

{{/BE|clone}}

=== Crafting ingredient ===

{{crafting usage|Map, Empty Map}}

=== Marking points ===
{{IN|java}} the player has the ability to mark spots on a map. To do this, {{control|use}} a map on a placed-down [[banner]], and the spot of the banner gets marked on the map. The mark takes the color of whatever the base color is for the banner, and if the banner has a name, the mark shows that name. Banner marks on a map are always oriented with their top facing north, regardless of the banner's actual orientation. If the banner is destroyed, the mark of the banner remains at first, but if the player gets closer to where the banner previously was, it disappears as the area is updated on the map.

If a map is mounted on an item frame and is within the area it depicts, the mounted map displays its current location with a green indicator rotated to match its orientation.

[[File:Map Marker Bedrock on Item frame.png|thumb|181x181px|{{IN|bedrock}} this is what a map lying on an item frame looks like, while showing markers.]]
{{IN|bedrock}} the player can place copies of locator maps in [[item frame]]s in order to create a land mark. The marker is a green dot that resembles the shape of the player's marker, but in green color. The position the marker points at depends on the direction the item frame is facing. It is worth noting that the markers work only on copies of the same map. Other maps of the same area do not show the existing markers that the player(s) had placed.

If a player has a cloned map in their inventory, their pointer appears white when viewed on the same map held by another player. Hence, if all players have the same cloned map in their inventory, all markers would appear white when the clone map is viewed.

Maps can be locked when using a [[glass pane]] in a [[cartography table]]. This creates a new map containing the same data and locks it. All copies of this new map are also locked. A locked map never changes, even when the depicted terrain changes. {{IN|Be}}, locked maps have a unique texture.

The sun now rises in the east and sets in the west, making navigation much more intuitive.
|Before the change in sun position, it was commonly said that ''Minecraft'' maps/worlds are oriented with East at the top; sunrise, by definition, occurs at the East, which means it is certainly true that the maps were oriented "East" since the Sun rose from the top (North).

== Issues ==
{{issue list}}

== Trivia ==
* Use of the {{key|F1}} key can allow the player to hold a map without blocking their view at all.
* In ''Java Edition'', a map created using {{cmd|give}} can be any map by using the Map parameter to specify the map number desired. E.g. {{cmd|give [player] minecraft:filled_map{map:5<nowiki>}}} gives the specified player map_5. If no data value is supplied it defaults to map_0. If map_0 has not ever been crafted, it is centered on x=0, z=0.
* The maps are stored separately as their own data (<code>.dat</code>) file as <code>map_x.dat</code> with (x) being the map number, see [[map item format]] for more info. By manipulating this number, players can organize their maps to suit them, or if they accidentally create a map in the same location, they can delete their extra map so as to save the number they make.
* Certain programs can be used to make customized maps with images or text on them instead of actual maps, many people use these in adventure maps to show pictures or to tell a story.
* Since all copies of a map are links to the same file, copying an unfinished map keeps it synchronized with the copy as the player fills it in. Thus, a copy stored in a chest can act as a remote backup.
* A map that is in an item frame does not update itself until a player picks it up, lets it reload, and places it back again. However, if a player holds a clone of the map, both maps update.
* Filled maps are the only items that make 90 degree rotations in item frames, and also the only items that can expand the item frame into full block wide.
* On [[Legacy Console Edition]], the player always spawns with a map in their inventory after creating a world. This was later added to Bedrock Edition as an optional feature in the world creation menu.
* Maps on Legacy Console Edition always show the player's current coordinates, as a substitute for the optional [[Coordinates|coordinate display]] in other editions.
* A map cannot be created on [[New Nintendo 3DS Edition]]. Instead, the map is always displayed on the bottom screen along with the coordinates. Biome colors do not appear on maps.
