Minecraft 1.21 Tricky Trials arrives June 13th, but for those who would like to enjoy 1.21 today, there is a pre-release to play! So, today, we explore Minecraft 1.21 Tricky Trials Pre-Release 1, the changes it makes, and how to create a server ready for release.
Patch Notes
New Features
OMINOUS TRIAL SPAWNER
- Mobs removed by a Trial Spawner converting to Ominous state now drop any items they previously picked up from the ground
Changes
- Mace attack speed has been changed to 0.6
- Doors of different materials can now form a double door
- Ender Pearls that are thrown through portals can now teleport players to a different dimension than the one they are currently in
- It is now possible to ride entities such as Horses or Minecarts through portals
- When riding entities through portals, the delay before teleporting is not applied
Technical Changes
- Data Pack version is now 46
- Removed the entitiesWithPassengersCanUsePortals gamerule that was introduced last snapshot. Entity with passengers being able to use portals is now the default behavior.
- Report data generator now includes information about network packets
- The game will now store reports from failed chunks’ loads and saves in the debug directory
SERVER LINKS
- There are some generic-use link names, like “Support” or “Website”, without any special functionality
Data Pack Versions 42 Through 46
- Added new configurable fields to jigsaw structures and single_pool_element types
ENCHANTMENTS
LEVEL-BASED VALUES
lookup
A Level-Based Value type that maps a list of values to specific levels, and applies a fallback if the level is greater than the number of values supplied. Fields:
- values – A list of values indexed by level – 1 to apply, if present
- fallback – A fallback Level-Based Value to apply if the level is greater than the size of values
EFFECT CONDITIONS
Unlike with loot tables, all effect conditions need to be inline objects and cannot be references.
TAGS
BLOCK TAGS
- fire_aspect_lightable has been removed
- With this snapshot, we are temporarily removing the functionality of lighting blocks on fire using the Fire Aspect enchantment, as we want to refine it further. This functionality will be reintroduced in a later release.
LOOT TABLES
CONDITIONS
random_chance_with_enchanted_bonus
- chance: field has been removed
- unenchanted_chance: new field for the chance for an unenchanted item
- enchanted_chance: new field for the chance for an enchanted item – a Level-Based Value
STRUCTURES
- Added liquid_settings field to structures of type minecraft:jigsaw. Possible values:
- apply_waterlogging: If any waterloggable block overlaps with existing water, it will become waterlogged
- ignore_waterlogging: Will not waterlog any waterloggable blocks that overlap existing water
- Default value is apply_waterlogging
- Added optional field override_liquid_settings to single_pool_element element type
- Same possible values as the liquid_settings in jigsaw structures
- Overrides the inherited liquid settings from the parent jigsaw structure while generating this pool element
