PocketMine-MP/changelogs/5.6.md

5.6.0

Released 20th September 2023.

For Minecraft: Bedrock Edition 1.20.30

This is a support release for Minecraft: Bedrock Edition 1.20.30.

Plugin compatibility: Plugins for previous 5.x versions will run unchanged on this release, unless they use internal APIs, reflection, or packages like the pocketmine\network\mcpe or pocketmine\data namespace. Do not update plugin minimum API versions unless you need new features added in this release.

WARNING: If your plugin uses the pocketmine\network\mcpe namespace, you're not shielded by API change constraints. Consider using the mcpe-protocol directive in plugin.yml as a constraint if you're using packets directly.

General

• Added support for Minecraft: Bedrock Edition 1.20.30.
• Removed support for older versions.

Fixes

• Fixed support conditions for hanging roots, cave vines and dead bushes.
• Fixed connection conditions for fences, glass panes, iron bars, and walls.

5.6.1

Released 20th October 2023.

Performance

• Improved performance of cactus growth by disabling neighbour updates when only the age property was updated. While this isn't a perfect solution, it provides significant performance gains for servers with large cactus farms.

Fixes

• Fixed tools/generate-bedrock-data-from-packets.php incorrectly interpreting network meta as blockstates in some cases (broken crafting recipes).
• Fixed crafting recipes involving beds, skulls and some other items not working correctly (incorrectly interpreted data).
• Fixed crashes when flower pot or cauldron blockentities exist in places where they shouldn't (leftovers from upgraded PM3 worlds).
• Fixed Entity->broadcastSound() not firing WorldSoundEvent (bypassing internal sound system).
• Fixed wooden signs, buttons and doors not being able to be used as furnace fuel.
• Fixed bone meal and tools only working when used on the top side of dirt and grass. Bone meal now works from any side, and tools work on any side except the bottom.
