Additions[edit | edit source]

Blocks[edit | edit source]

Concrete
  • Comes in the 16 traditional dye colors.
  • Created when concrete powder comes into contact with still or flowing water.
Concrete powder
  • Comes in the 16 traditional dye colors.
  • Gravity affected (like sand and gravel).
  • When it touches water, it turns into a concrete block.
  • Crafted with 4 sand, 4 gravel and one of any dye to get 8 concrete powder blocks. The recipe is shapeless.
Glazed terracotta
  • Comes in the 16 traditional dye colors.
  • Smelting any colored stained clay in a furnace produces the glazed terracotta of that color (not for regular hardened clay).
  • Can be placed in 4 directions: north, south, west, and east.
    • When placed down while facing the right directions, a repeating pattern can be created. For example, the white glazed terracotta creates the pattern of a sun when 4 are placed down correctly.

  • Added "Saved Toolbars" tab.
    • Save toolbars in Creative mode with Ctrl + 1-9/Cmd + 1-9 and load them with Shift + 1-9.
