Minecraft 25w02a
The first snapshot of 2025, adding pig variants, new flowers, and many more tweaks. See the changelog.
Wildflowers
Bees can pollinate wildflowers, and wildflowers can be used to breed bees.
Leaf Litter
Trees can replace leaf litter when growing.
Creaking
Attacking a Creaking emits an entity_action game event (sculk sensor frequency 4), fixing MC-278659.
Misc
Big dripleaf blocks can no longer be placed on pale moss.
Boats being rocked by bubble columns now have a 1/100 chance to emit a splash game event (sculk sensor frequency 2) every tick, decreased from a 1/20 chance every tick.
If a player gliding with an elytra flies within range of a climbable block, they stop gliding, fixing MC-90212.
Book cloning now works on any item with the written_book_content component, not just written books.
Particles
Added a new particle: tinted_leaves. Its color is taken from tint index 0 of the block above its spawn position.
Tree Decorators
Added a new tree decorator: place_on_ground, with the following format:
{
"type": "minecraft:place_on_ground",
"block_state_provider": {...},
"height": /* integer */,
"radius": /* integer */,
"tries": /* integer */
}
It places blocks defined by block_state_provider around a certain radius and height around the tree’s lowest logs and roots. If there are multiple logs and/or roots at the lowest Y level, then a box is created that encompasses all the logs and roots, and then blocks can be placed within radius and height around the box.
The decorator will choose a random location tries times within the available area, placing a block if the chosen location supports the block.
