Minecraft Bedrock Patch Notes: Update 1.18.2

Here are the complete patch notes for Minecraft Update 1.18.2 coming out to all supported platforms:

  • Users running Minecraft in a 32-bit environment will receive a warning in the main menu about the upcoming end of 32-bit environment support
  • If you’re playing in South Korea, we added gameplay timers and notices in compliance with gaming laws to help remind players to take occasional breaks from gameplay
  • A seed of the number zero is no longer handled as a special case
  • Any spaces before/after an inputted seed will now be trimmed
  • Dolphins will now more accurately pick the closest structure regardless of type
  • Ender chests are no longer gift wrapped around Christmas

TECHNICAL CHANGES IN 1.18.2

  • Added command: placefeature
  • The locate command now uses a namespaced id parameter
  • The locate command parameter is now a configured structure rather than a structure type. For instance, you can now use /locate village_desert or /locate shipwreck_beached
  • locate and locatebiome commands now support tags (prefix with # to distinguish from normal ids)
  • It is now possible to add custom structures in experimental datapacks
  • A lot of the cave generation is now configurable through experimental datapacks
  • Any type present in registries (blocks, items, biomes, etc.) can now have tags
  • The datapack version is now 9

PLACEFEATURE COMMAND

New command that places a configured feature at a given location. Syntax: placefeature <id> [pos]
Parameters:

  • id: The namespaced id of a configured feature to place
  • pos: The position to use as the origin for the feature placement (if omitted, ~ ~ ~ is used)

CONFIGURABLE CAVES

  • A new registry was added for Density functions (caves are created by combining those together)
  • Noise settings got a new field noise_router (and lost a couple of flags), see worldgen/noise_settings folder in the worldgen report
  • Noise router wires data-driven parts of the cave generation with the rest of the code

CONFIGURED STRUCTURES AND STRUCTURE SETS

The game now generates and stores data-driven configured structures.

  • Experimental datapacks can add new structure sets
  • The feature field in location predicates now references a configured feature
  • The exploration_map loot table function destination field is now a configured feature tag id
  • The exploration_map loot table function no longer automatically sets the display name of the map

UNIVERSAL TAGS

  • Tags can now be defined for any registry (blocks, items, biomes, etc. – see registries.json in report)
  • New tags are stored in datapacks under tags directory (same as old ones)
    • Names of new tag directories are the same as registry names (so /data/[namespace]/tags/potion and /data/[namespace]/tags/worldgen/biome)
    • Existing tags (blocks, items, fluids, entity_types, game_events and functions) keep their name (for now)
  • Some fields in worldgen structures that previously accepted only lists of element ids now accept tags
    • Those entries now accept [id, …], id (shortcut for [id]) and #tag
    • Changed fields are:
      • feature.glow_lichen configuration: can_be_placed_on
      • feature.spring_feature configuration: valid_blocks
      • feature.simple_random_selector configuration: features
      • block_predicate_type.matching_blocks: blocks
      • block_predicate_type.matching_fluids: fluids
      • biome: inner list in features, map value in carvers
      • biome_source.checkerboard: biomes
  • Some tag fields now require id to be prepended with # (however they are not yet accepting element list)
    • dimension_type: infiniburn
    • feature.geode configration: blocks.cannot_replace, blocks.invalid_blocks
    • feature.vegetation_patch, feature.waterlogged_vegetation_patch configuration: replaceable
    • feature.root_system configuration: root_replaceable
    • structure_processor.protected_blocks: value
