Minecraft Beta 1.16.100.50 - What's New?

Another test version of Minecraft Bedrock (PE) Beta 1.16.100.50 has been released, in which developers fixed some bugs and made a number of changes!

Achievements Screen:

• The achievements screen has been updated. Remember that changes to the achievements screen are "rolled out in waves" to players and may not be available to everyone at once.

Main:

• Custom names for bosses now also appear in the health bar.
• Fixed a bug where the system language setting for Simplified or Traditional Chinese was not respected by the game.
• On Nintendo Switch, you can once again upload worlds to Realms:
  • This fix for Nintendo Switch is currently only available in the test version and will become available to Nintendo Switch players with the release of the update.
• The game no longer crashes if a player opens a shulker box they are standing on after joining multiplayer.
• Fixed a bug where some walls connected incorrectly when loading a world.
• Fixed a bug where it was impossible to use a fishing rod if a mob was in front of the player.
• Fixed a bug with missing animation when breaking bamboo.
• Added a Noto Sans font license button in the "Profile" section of settings.

Graphics:

• Fixed a graphical issue with glass blocks in the "City Living" world that affected some Windows 10 devices.
• Fixed an issue with incorrect rendering of skybox background graphics on some devices.

Technical Changes

• Actors
  • 'minecraft:behavior.controlled_by_player' is now controllable.
  • The physics component has_gravity is now used to decide whether a mob should apply water gravity if the mob has no navigation component.
  • End Crystals can no longer be pushed.
  • Squid render is now data-driven.
  • Minecarts are now data-driven.

Display Name Component:

• Items can now override their display name with a localized "value". If no value is specified, the component will remain with the default name. If the item has no name, its identifier will be displayed.

Item Parsing:

• Example 1:
  • any_tag functionality added to several Actor components.
  • "item": {"any_tag": "food"}
  • "item": {"any_tag": ["food", "wood"]}
  • "bribe_items": ["emerald", {"any_tag": "stone"}]
  • minecraft:ageable feed_items can now use any_tag functionality
  • minecraft:breedable breed_items can now use any_tag functionality
  • minecraft:bribeable bribe_items can now use any_tag functionality
  • minecraft:giveable items can now use any_tag functionality
  • minecraft:healable items can now use any_tag functionality
  • minecraft:tamemount feed_items and auto_reject_items can now use any_tag functionality
  • minecraft:equippable accepted_items can now use any_tag functionality
• Example 2:
  • Looks for the "apple" key in vanilla localization to use as display text, but since the game cannot find a localization for it, the game will display "apple".
  • "minecraft:display_name": {
    "value": "apple"
    }
• Example 3:
  • Looks for the "item.apple.name" key in vanilla localization to use as display text, so it will find "Apple". Note that the namespace "minecraft:" is not required.
  • "minecraft:display_name": {
    "value": "item.apple.name"
    }
• Example 4:
  • Looks for a custom string in the resource pack; if not found, a fallback name like "item.my_namespace:My_Awesome_Item.name" will be used.
  • "minecraft:display_name": {
    "value": "item.my_namespace:My_Awesome_Item.name"
    }
