13w05a is the seventh snapshot released for Java Edition 1.5, which adds snow layers.[1]
13w05a was reuploaded shortly after release.[more information needed]
Additions[]
Blocks[]
- Fully implemented multiple snow heights.
- Drops one snowball for every layer of snow.
- Each level of snow has its own height collision.
- The topmost layer of snow does not have collision, so the player is always slightly sunken in the snow.
- Visually, four layers of snow is the same height as a slab. However, five layers of snow have the same collision height as a slab.
- Crafting recipe is 3 snow blocks in a row to create 6 snow layers.
- For each thin layer of snow crafted, the player loses exactly half the snowballs required to produce it.
Changes[]
Blocks[]
- Increased range.
- Effects are infinite upwards with the beam.
- 1 layer: 41 blocks diameter (previously 33).
- 2 layers: 61 blocks (previously 49).
- 3 layers: 81 blocks (previously 65).
- 4 layers: 101 blocks (previously 81).
- Now uses the 8s bit on block 149 to represent its powered state, rather than a separate block ID, 150.
- Block 150 is deprecated.
- Improved lighting.
- No longer prevent sprinting.
Items[]
- Everything now randomly takes 2-3 uses to fully grow.
Command format[]
