    • When nobody is standing on it, it is set to none stage.
  • The tilt can also be triggered by hitting the plant with a projectile.

• Lightning strikes within a 32-block radius get redirected to the lightning rod.
  • Turns completely white when struck by lightning.
• Gives off a redstone signal with a strength of 15 if hit by lightning.

Moss Block

• An opaque block with a grass-like texture on all sides.
• Can be fertilized with bone meal to grow grass, tall grass, moss carpets, and both types of azaleas on it and in its vicinity.
• Can be fertilized with bone meal to grow over (expand) across stone surfaces, but not grass surfaces.
• Breaks when pushed by a piston or sticky piston.
• Can be combined with cobblestone or stone bricks to make the mossy versions of those blocks.
  • Vines can still be used, in addition to moss blocks.
• Hoes are the appropriate tool to collect it.
• Small dripleaf can be planted on it.

Moss Carpet

• Same texture as the moss block, but one pixel thick.

Pointed Dripstone

• Can be either placed on a ceiling to create a stalactite or on top of a block to create a stalagmite.
  • Can be combined to form longer stalactites and stalagmites.
• Thrown tridents break pointed dripstone. They also break when pushed directly or with a block by a piston.
• Stalagmites break if not attached to something below.
• Stalagmites hurt entities that fall on top of them more than normal fall damage.
  • Damage is relative to height: For example, jumping on a stalagmite deals 2 of damage, and falling from 3 blocks deals 8 of damage.
• Stalactites can fall or break if unsupported, and break apart on impact, hurting entities they fall on.
  • Damage is relative to height: For example, one falling from 2 blocks deals 2 of damage, and one falling from 3 blocks deal 4 of damage.
  • They drip water or lava into cauldrons if a source block is placed above the stalactite, and gradually fill the cauldron. Water drips even without any water above the block (as does lava in the Nether) but this effect alone does not fill the cauldron.
• If a stalactite is hanging from a dripstone block with a water source above, it will slowly grow both the stalactite from above and a stalagmite from below.
  • Growth speed is random but very slow; a single growth step can take several in-game days.

Potted Azalea

• Obtained by planting an Azalea Bush into a pot.

Powder Snow

• A variant of snow, entities that walk over it sink into it.
• Leather boots can be worn to prevent entities from sinking into powder snow blocks.
  • Players can still crouch to descend with leather boots. Wearing leather boots also allows powder snow to be “climbed”, like water or scaffolding. They also prevent fall damage when landing on powder snow.
  • Leather Horse Armor also protects horses from freeze damage.
• When inside a powder snow block, a frosty vignette appears around the player’s screen and any entity (with the exception of strays, polar bears, snow golems and withers) inside starts freezing and taking damage after a short time.
  • Wearing any piece of leather armor stops the freeze effect.
• Can be collected and placed with a bucket.
• Entities on fire melt powder snow when colliding.

• Similar to coarse dirt, neither mycelium nor grass spread to it.
• Using bone meal on any side grows hanging roots underneath.
• Tilling rooted dirt with a hoe will now convert it into dirt, and pop out hanging roots.

Sculk Sensor

  • Items with smaller stacks, such as ender pearls, take up more room in a bundle, and non-stackable items take up the whole bundle.

  • They have a two-minute cooldown after hunting non-hostile targets such as fish and squids.
