The scoreboard system is a complex gameplay mechanic intended mostly for map makers. It is used via commands and command blocks.
Objectives
Objectives are a combination of name, display name, and criteria, and track an integer number of points for players. The full score range is -2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647, and does not support decimals.
An objective's name is used internally when referenced in commands, target arguments, and in the file format. It is case-sensitive and must be a single word.
Conversely, the display name can be multiple words, and is displayed publicly in various situations. It is also case-sensitive, and does not have to be unique.
An objective's criteria determines its behavior:
| Criteria | Description | Can be Modified? |
|---|---|---|
| dummy | Score is only changed by commands, and not by game events such as death. This is useful for event flags, state mappings, and currencies. | Yes |
| trigger | Score is only changed by commands, and not by game events such as death. The /trigger command can be used by a player to set or increment/decrement their own score in an objective with this criteria. The /trigger command will fail if the objective has not been "enabled" for the player using it, and the objective will be disabled for the player after they use the /trigger command on it. Note that the /trigger command can be used by ordinary players even if Cheats are off and they are not an Operator. This is useful for player input via /tellraw interfaces. | Yes |
| deathCount | Score increments automatically for a player when they die. | Yes |
| playerKillCount | Score increments automatically for a player when they kill another player. | Yes |
| totalKillCount | Score increments automatically for a player when they kill another player or a mob. | Yes |
| health | Ranges from 0 to 20 on a normal player; represents the amount of half-hearts the player has. May appear as 0 for players before their health has changed for the first time. Extra hearts and absorption hearts also count to the health score, meaning that with Attributes/Modifiers or the Health Boost or Absorption Status effects, health can far surpass 20. | No |
Some criteria use the Statistics and Achievements systems to form compound criteria.[1] Unlike the simple criteria above, compound criteria have multiple parts, separated by periods ("."). For example, "stat.entityKilledBy.Zombie" would be a compound criterion, which would increment for a player whenever a zombie kills them.[2]
A list of known compound criteria follows:
| Criteria Base | Description | Can be Modified? | Number of sub-criteria | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| achievement | Accepted sub-criteria are: "acquireIron", "bakeCake", "blazeRod", "bookcase", "breedCow", "buildBetterPickaxe", "buildFurnace", "buildHoe", "buildPickaxe", "buildSword", "buildWorkBench", "cookFish", "diamonds", "diamondsToYou", "enchantments", "exploreAllBiomes", "flyPig", "fullBeacon", "ghast", "killCow", "killEnemy", "killWither", "makeBread", "mineWood", "onARail", "openInventory", "overkill", "overpowered", "portal", "potion", "snipeSkeleton", "spawnWither", "theEnd", and "theEnd2". Value is dependent on how many times the player has gotten the achievement (e.g. if a player has picked up three blocks of wood, their score for an objective with the "achievement.mineWood" criterion will be 3). | Yes | 34 | ||||
| stat | Base for criteria related to a player's statistics. Accepted sub-criteria are: "animalsBred", "boatOneCm", "climbOneCm", "crouchOneCm", "damageDealt", "damageTaken", "deaths", "diveOneCm", "drop", "fallOneCm", "fishCaught", "flyOneCm", "horseOneCm", "jump", "junkFished", "leaveGame", "minecartOneCm", "mobKills", "pigOneCm", "playerKills", "playOneMinute", "sprintOneCm", "swimOneCm", "talkedToVillager", "timeSinceDeath", "tradedWithVillager", "treasureFished", and "walkOneCm". Score increments automatically for a player when they perform the action specified by the sub-criterion. | Yes | 28 | ||||
| stat.craftItem | The sub-criteria are the ID number (such as "stat.craftItem.1") or ID name (such as "stat.craftItem.minecraft.stone" - note that the "minecraft." is required for ID names) of a block or item. Only IDs of craftable or smeltable blocks and items are accepted. The value increments when the block or item is removed from a furnace, crafting table, or the inventory's crafting field. Clicking to remove increments the value by one, but shift-clicking increments it by two.
Certain items, such as iron ingots, pickaxes, and cake, have achievement counterparts that increment in the same way. |
Yes | 199 (398)[note 1] | ||||
| stat.useItem | The sub-criteria are the ID number (such as "stat.useItem.1") or ID name (such as "stat.useItem.minecraft.stone") of a block or item. Most blocks and items are accepted, except various blocks which do not have an item form.
The value increments when a player uses a block or item. "Use" is defined as when:
The value, however, does not increment when items are used on mobs, whether to name, tame, feed, breed, saddle, leash, shear, milk, or gather stew from; when armor is put on directly; when leather armor is washed in a cauldron; and all instances mentioned above. |
Yes | 318 (636)[note 1] | ||||
| stat.breakItem | The sub-criteria are the ID number (such as "stat.breakItem.256") or ID name (such as "stat.breakItem.minecraft.bow") of an item with durability.
The value increments when the durability runs out. The durability runs out when the condition for losing durability for the item is met, and the durability becomes negative, which is the first use after the durability is zero that causes the item to break. |
Yes | 50 (100)[note 1] | ||||
| stat.mineBlock | The sub-criteria are the ID number (such as "stat.mineBlock.1") or ID name (such as "stat.mineBlock.minecraft.stone") of a block. Most blocks are accepted, except for various indestructible or technical blocks.
This increments when a player mines a block. "Mine" is defined as when a player destroys a block in a way that an item could/would drop, unless the block does not drop items like glass, or another block would be created like ice. The value does not increase when in Creative mode and will still increase if doTileDrops is set to false. |
Yes | 135 (270)[note 1] | ||||
| stat.killEntity | The sub-criteria are the name of an entity. Valid names are: "Bat", "Blaze", "CaveSpider", "Chicken", "Cow", "Creeper", "Enderman", "Endermite", "EntityHorse", "Ghast", "Guardian", "LavaSlime", "MushroomCow", "Ozelot", "Pig", "PigZombie", "Rabbit", "Sheep", "Silverfish", "Skeleton", "Slime", "Spider", "Squid", "Villager", "Witch", "Wolf", and "Zombie". Increments when a player has killed the specified mob. | Yes | 24 | ||||
| stat.entityKilledBy | The sub-criteria are the name of an entity. Valid names are: "Bat", "Blaze", "CaveSpider", "Chicken", "Cow", "Creeper", "Enderman", "Endermite", "EntityHorse", "Ghast", "Guardian", "LavaSlime", "MushroomCow", "Ozelot", "Pig", "PigZombie", "Rabbit", "Sheep", "Silverfish", "Skeleton", "Slime", "Spider", "Squid", "Villager", "Witch", "Wolf", and "Zombie". Increments when a player has been killed by the specified mob. Note that if the name of a passive mob is used the value will never increase, as those mobs are not capable of hurting the player. |
Yes | 24 | ||||
| teamkill | The sub-criteria are the color of a team. Valid colors are: "black", "dark_blue", "dark_green", "dark_aqua", "dark_red", "dark_purple", "gold", "gray", "dark_gray", "blue", "green", "aqua", "red", "light_purple", "yellow", and "white". Increments when a player has killed a member of a team with the specified color. | Yes | 16 | ||||
| killedByTeam | The sub-criteria are the color of a team. Valid colors are: "black", "dark_blue", "dark_green", "dark_aqua", "dark_red", "dark_purple", "gold", "gray", "dark_gray", "blue", "green", "aqua", "red", "light_purple", "yellow", and "white". Increments when a player has been killed by a member of a team with the specified color. | Yes | 16 |
- ↑ a b c d Prior to 14w06a, stat.craftItem, stat.useItem, stat.breakItem, and stat.mineBlock only accepted numeric IDs and not ID names. The addition of ID names means that these compound criteria effectively have double the sub-criteria they previously had, but the new criteria serve the same exact roles as their numeric counterparts. For convenience, the first number listed is the number of blocks/items which these compound criteria accept, and the second is the literal number of sub-criteria.
A player's score in any objective may be changed via commands, unless it is read-only (currently, only objectives with the 'health' criterion are read-only). It may be increased or decreased by a specific amount, or set to a specific value. For objectives based upon stats or achievements, the objective can be changed via commands, however the actual stat or achievement doesn't change. The objective will continue to update with changes in stats or achievements.
Command blocks can also be used to check a player's score for any objective, with the arguments score_name and score_name_min. In these arguments, name is the internal name of the objective to test for. score_name passes players with at most the specified number of points, while score_name_min passes players with at least the specified number of points.
For example, "testfor @p[score_deaths=5,score_deaths_min=1]" in a Command Block will make a comparator provide output if a player has died at least once and has died no more than 5 times, assuming "deaths" is an objective of the "deathCount" criterion.
Display slots
Via the "scoreboard objectives setdisplay" command (see command reference), players' scores in specific objectives can be displayed in certain 'slots' in-game. Each 'Display Slot' can show one objective at a time, and multiple 'Display Slots' may be used for the same or different objectives.
| Slot | Description |
|---|---|
| list | Displays a yellow number without a heading on the tab menu, where online players are shown. Visible even in singleplayer. |
| sidebar | Shows on the right hand side of the screen. Shows players in a high score list with a heading labeled the objective's display name. Note that players will be shown even if offline, and untracked players will not be shown. In addition, fake players with names starting with a # will not show up in the sidebar under any circumstances. |
| sidebar.team.<color> | There are 16 team-specific sidebar display slots. These operate the same as the standard sidebar slot, but only display to players who are on teams which use the specified color (for example, "sidebar.team.green" displays to players on "green" teams). Valid colors are: "black", "dark_blue", "dark_green", "dark_aqua", "dark_red", "dark_purple", "gold", "gray", "dark_gray", "blue", "green", "aqua", "red", "light_purple", "yellow", and "white". |
| belowName | Shows the score followed by the objective's display name below the player's nameplate above their head. Is hidden beyond ~10 blocks and when the player is sneaking. Not visible in singleplayer. |
Teams
Teams are a combination of name, display name, prefix, suffix, friendly fire options, and a list of players who are on the team.
As with objectives, the name and display name of a team are case-sensitive, name is a single word used internally, and display name can be multiple words and does not need to be unique.
The prefix and suffix are inserted before and after the names of players on a team - without using external editors, the only possible prefixes are formatting codes for team colors, and the only possible suffix is the reset code (so characters after a player's name aren't formatted). Prefixes and suffixes will be added to the names of players in chat, the active players list, the sidebar, and above their heads.
The friendly fire option allows control of whether team members can harm each other. Its default mode, "true", makes no changes to PvP mechanics. When set to "false", however, it prevents players on the same team from causing damage to each other with melee attacks, bows, and Splash Potions of Harming. Note that players on the same team may still inflict negative status effects on each other with potions, even if friendly fire is false.
It is important to note that each individual player can only be on one team; teams cannot share players.
Command blocks can be used to check whether a player is on a team with the "team" argument; the "!" character may be placed before a name to check for players not on the team. For example, "testfor @p[team=red]" in a Command Block will provide comparator output if a player is on the "red" team. Similarly, "testfor @p[team=!red]" will provide output for players who are not on "red". Also, "testfor @p[team=!]" will check for all players on a team, while "testfor @p[team=] will check for those without a team.
Command reference
| Command | Description | Success Conditions[note 1] |
|---|---|---|
| scoreboard <objectives|players|teams> | The base command of the scoreboard system. | N/A |
| scoreboard objectives list | Lists all existing objectives, with their display name and criteria. | The scoreboard must have at least one objective. |
| scoreboard objectives add <name> <criteria> [display name...] | Creates a new objective with the internal name name, specified criteria, and the optional display name. Without a specified display name, it will default to name. See above section for the meaning of these properties. All arguments are case-sensitive. | name must not be used by an existing objective, and must be at most 16 characters. criteria must be a valid criteria type. display name must be at most 32 characters. |
| scoreboard objectives remove <name> | Deletes all references to the objective with name in the scoreboard system. Data is deleted from the objectives list, player scores, and if it was on a display list, it will no longer be displayed. | name must be an existing objective. |
| scoreboard objectives setdisplay <slot> [objective] | Displays score info for objective in the specified slot. Valid slots are listed and described in Display Slots. Note that the objective parameter is optional: if no objective is provided, this display slot is cleared (returned to its default state). | objective must exist, if it is specified. slot must also exist. Note that clearing an empty slot will still succeed. |
| scoreboard players list [playername] | Displays all players who are tracked, in some way, by the scoreboard system. The optional playername parameter can be used to display all scores of a particular player, and "*" (an asterisk) in place of playername will display all scores for all players tracked by the scoreboard system. | playername must have recorded scores, if specified. If no playername is specified, there must be at least one tracked player on the scoreboard. |
| scoreboard players set <player> <objective> <score> [dataTag] | Sets the player's score in objective to score, overwriting the previous score if it exists.

| scoreboard players reset <player> [objective] | Deletes score or all scores for player. If objective is specified, only that objective is cleared; otherwise this applies to all objectives. Note this does not merely set the score(s) to 0: it removes the player from the scoreboard altogether (or for the given objective). "*" may be used to represent all players tracked by the scoreboard. | Always succeeds, even on players who are not on the scoreboard. |
| scoreboard players enable <player> <trigger> | Enables player to use the /trigger command on the specified trigger objective. Until this has been done, player's attempts to /trigger that objective will fail. Once they have used the /trigger command on it, it will be disabled again.

| scoreboard players test <player> <objective> <min> [max] | Outputs whether or not player's score in objective is within the range min to max (inclusive). If not specified or if "*" is used, max defaults to 2,147,483,647. Using a "*" for min means -2,147,483,648. For player "*" may be used to represent all players tracked by the scoreboard. | objective must exist, and player's score in it must exist and be at least min and no greater than max. Note that player does not need to be online or even exist. |
| scoreboard players operation <targetName> <targetObjective> <operation> <selector> <objective> | Applies an arithmetic operation altering targetName's score in targetObjective, using selector's score in objective as input.

| scoreboard teams option <team> color <value> | Will color the name of all players on this team in chat, above their head, on the Tab menu, and on the sidebar. Valid color values are "black", "dark_blue", "dark_green", "dark_aqua", "dark_red", "dark_purple", "gold", "gray", "dark_gray", "blue", "green", "aqua", "red", "light_purple", "yellow", and "white". Another valid value is "reset" (names show in default color and formatting). | team must exist, and value must be a valid value. |
| scoreboard teams option <team> friendlyfire <true|false> | The default setting, true, has no impact on PvP mechanics. When set to false, players on this team cannot harm each other with melee, bow, or Splash Potion of Harming attacks, but may still inflict negative status effects on each other. | team must exist, and the setting must be "true" or "false". |

When set to "hideForOwnTeam", only death messages of other players on one's own team will be hidden. When set to "always", all death messages will appear in chat. | team must exist, and the setting must be "never", "hideForOtherTeams", "hideForOwnTeam", or "always". |
- ↑ A command's Success Conditions must be met in order for the game to consider the command "successful". This is used to determine a variety of things, such as the output of a Redstone Comparator feeding from Command Block with a command. Note that not all "successful" commands actually do something, and not all "failed" commands fail to do something useful.

The '''Smarter Watch''' was a joke offhand [[item]].
== Usage ==
Smarter watches were "equipped" by having them placed into the offhand slot. Upon equipping, they would display the current time above the hotbar, in minutes and seconds, with one minute of in-game time being 5/6 of a real-time second, and one in-game hour being 5/6 of a real-time minute or 50 seconds.
The smarter watch would also notify the [[player]] of statistics milestones, alongside taken [[damage]], [[item]] specific info, [[crafting]] items and more.{{info needed|What exactly?}}

}}
Paintings can be crafted with any color of [[wool]]. The color of the wool used does not influence the picture chosen when the painting is placed.
Once placed, it displays a random painting.
=== Breaking ===
To remove a painting from a wall, the player can {{control|attack}} it, break one of its supporting blocks, cover one square of it with a block, hit it with an arrow, egg, ender pearl, snowball, or fire charge, or subject it to an explosion. The painting then drops as an item. Arrows that hit paintings disappear.
=== Trading ===
Master-level shepherd [[villager]]s sell 3 paintings for 2 [[emerald]]s.
== Usage ==
=== Placement ===
Paintings can be placed on the sides of [[solid block]]s, [[sign]]s, [[banner]]s, or [[sculk vein]]s . A small gap is visible between the painting and attachment surface. There are several different sizes of paintings (see below). When placed, a painting checks for the largest amount of space it has. It then chooses a random painting of that size. The player can add blocks around the painting to ensure it is the size wanted. When the supporting blocks are removed, the painting breaks after 20 game [[tick]]s (1 second) if no supporting blocks are replaced during that interval.
=== Properties ===
Being an entity, paintings can simultaneously exist in the same space as blocks such as water or torches. Specifically, they can share the space with any block whose collision box does not intersect its hitbox.
Players and mobs are able to walk through paintings, as long as the blocks supporting the painting allow it. Secret doorways can be created this way. [[Light]] propagates through paintings as well.
If a player is concealed behind a painting, the player's name is also concealed from other players.{{verify|Is this true in Bedrock?}}

=== Unused paintings ===
In [[Pocket Edition v0.5.0 alpha|v0.5.0 alpha]], with the addition of paintings to Pocket Edition, four unused 32×32 paintings were present in <samp>[[kz.png]]</samp> which remained unused. See {{slink|Bedrock Edition unused features|Paintings}} for more information. They were also added to Java Edition in snapshot [[Java Edition 22w16a|22w16a]]. They cannot be placed by default, but can be summoned by [[commands]] (such as {{cmd|/summon painting ~ ~ ~ {variant:"water"} }}) or through a [[datapack]].
According to [[Helen Zbihlyj]],<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/Minecraft/comments/u8hpnx/thoughts_on_the_new_paintings/i5olue6/?context=3 ([https://web.archive.org/web/20220422115723/https://old.reddit.com/r/Minecraft/comments/u8hpnx/thoughts_on_the_new_paintings/i5olue6/?context=3 archived])</ref> these paintings were originally added "as part of a Pocket Edition promo map" (no footage found) which was planned to be a part of [[Pocket Edition]] promotion at [[MINECON 2012]] [[MINECON 2013|or 2013]] and have never been used in game. The artist of these paintings remains unknown.

== Trivia ==
* On April 26, 2011, Notch stated that the automapping code can be used to share custom paintings and books in the future.<ref>{{tweet|notch|62970142207913984|The auto mapping code can be used to share custom paintings and books in the future. There's a hard cap on 65536 of each/world, though|April 26, 2011}}</ref>
* The texture on the back of a painting is the same as the wooden planks texture, but with a yellowish color similar to that of [[chests]] (but slightly darker).
* The "Skull on Fire" painting contains a Minecraft world in the background, which is based on a screenshot taken by the artist in [[Java Edition Alpha v1.1.2 01|Alpha 1.1.2_01]] (or earlier) on October 12, 2010, at 13:22:49 (UTC+2).<ref>{{cite|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220928041338/https://imgur.com/HVhrbnH|title=The original (never publicly shared before) screenshot that Kristoffer Zetterstrand took and based his painting on.|website=Imgur}}</ref>
**The seeds for this world are -1044887956651363087 and -6984854390176336655 (both are the same), standing at X=-249.65, Y=91, Z=-29.04.<ref>https://pastebin.com/fzAY9ES4</ref><ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/Minecraft/comments/iqg3ey/the_original_screenshot_seed_of_the_minecraft/</ref>
* The "Skull on Fire" painting's texture was added in [[Java Edition Beta 1.3|Beta 1.3]]. However, the code for paintings to randomly display the part of the [[Kz.png]] texture that was to be occupied by the Burning Skull painting was added earlier, in [[Java Edition Beta 1.2_01|Beta 1.2_01]]. As there was nothing on this part of the texture except for a purple background grid, this is what would be displayed if the painting was randomly chosen, until the Burning Skull painting texture was actually added.
* The original "Skull on Fire" painting was given to the winner of an official texture pack competition by Mojang.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20110110003612/http://www.webhallen.com:80/minecraft/</ref>

'''Rotten flesh''' is a [[food]] item that can be eaten by the [[player]], with high risk of inflicting [[Hunger (status effect)|Hunger]] and low [[Saturation]].
== Obtaining ==
=== Mob loot ===
==== Zombies ====
[[Zombie]]s, [[zombie villager]]s, [[zombie horse]]s, [[husk]]s, and [[drowned]] drop from 0 to 2 units of rotten flesh. [[Looting]] can increase this by one per level, for a maximum of 5 rotten flesh.
==== Zoglins ====
[[Zoglin]]s drop 1-3. Looting III grants a maximum of 6.
==== Zombified piglins ====
[[Zombified Piglin|Zombified piglins]] drop 0-1. Looting III grants a maximum of 4.
=== Fishing ===
Rotten flesh can be obtained as a "junk" item while [[fishing]].
=== Chest loot ===
{{LootChestItem|rotten-flesh}}
=== Cat gifts ===
{{main|Cat#Gifts}}
Tamed [[cat]]s have a 70% chance of giving the [[player]] a gift when they wake up from a [[bed]], and the gift has a 16.13% chance to be a rotten flesh.
== Usage ==
=== Food ===
{{see also|Tutorials/Hunger management}}
To eat rotten flesh, press and hold {{control|use}} while rotten flesh is selected in the hotbar.
Eating rotten flesh restores {{hunger|4}} [[hunger]] and 0.8 hunger [[Hunger#Mechanics|saturation]], but has an 80% chance of inflicting {{EffectLink|Hunger (effect)|id=Hunger}} for 30 seconds. Note that the duration does ''not'' accumulate when eating multiple pieces. However, if more is consumed and the [[Hunger (effect)|Hunger]] status effect is inflicted, the duration resets to 30 seconds.
=== Wolves ===
Rotten flesh can be used to [[breed]] and heal tamed [[wolves]], lead them around, and make baby tamed wolves grow up faster by 10% of the remaining time.
Wolves are immune to the Hunger effect.
=== Trading ===
Novice-level [[Trading#Cleric|cleric villagers]] buy 32 rotten flesh for 1 [[emerald]] as part of their trades.

'''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.

=== Bamboo shoot "item" ===
{{: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.
