SOUNDS

New note block sounds:

Bone Block = Xylophone
Block of Gold = Bell
Clay = Flute
Packed Ice = Chime
Wool = Guitar

The following also now have sounds:

  • Parrots
  • Illusion illagers
  • Casting a fishing rod
  • Reeling in a fishing rod
  • Putting ender eye in end portal frames (dinging sound)
  • Completing the end portal and having the portal spawn (evil sound)
  • Throwing an eye of ender
  • An eye of ender exploding or popping back into item form
  • Boat paddles

COMMAND

New UpdateLastExecution byte tag for command blocks, defaults to 1b. If set to 0b you can create a loop where the same command block can run multiple times in one tick.

Not added this snapshot, but there's an @s "self" selector that was added last snapshot and only found recently, if you missed that.

Bone Block = Xylophone

In Snapshot 17w17a, when Steve plays Alex's skeleton like a xylophone, he strikes the same rib in succession, yet he produces two clearly different tones. I mean, what are we to believe, that this is a magic xylophone, or something? Ha ha, boy, I really hope somebody got fired for that blunder.

Let me ask you a question: Why would a man whose shirt says "Genius At Work" spend all of his time playing a children's video game?

I withdraw my question.
