Minecraft 1.21.90.20 Beta

Minecraft 1.21.90.20 - Another beta version introducing new elements and features to the blocky world.

New Features

Updated Lead Mechanics

You can now attach multiple mobs at once. Mobs can also be tethered to boats, boats with chests, and fences. A new experimental feature allows attaching a boat with a chest to the "Happy Ghast" to fly through the skies.

Experimental Changes

User Interface

• Jump and dash bars no longer overlap the locator in creative mode when inactive.
• The interaction button for touch devices is now positioned higher to avoid covering the locator.
• Player markers on the locator display correctly in split-screen mode.
• Item name tooltips are no longer cut off with the locator active.
• In third-person view, player markers on the locator are also displayed correctly in split-screen mode.

Physics

Natural Lead Behavior

• All tetherable creatures now behave more naturally when the lead is stretched.
• Horses, camels, donkeys, mules, boats, boats with chests, and sniffers tethered to the "Happy Ghast" gradually align their position in the air, smoothly following the lead.
• In other situations, mobs now orient correctly towards the lead's tension and no longer behave chaotically in the air.
• Boats now obey air resistance, preventing excessive bouncing or orbiting around the player.
• Lead break distance increased to 12 blocks, and 16 blocks for the "Happy Ghast."
• Tethered objects now face the player leading them.
• Distance between tethered objects is calculated from the center of their collisions, not their feet.

Lead Visualization

• Boats and large creatures that don't fit in boats (e.g., horses, camels, and sniffers) tethered to the "Happy Ghast" now display four leads instead of one.
• The "Happy Ghast" has a unique rope layer wrapping around it.

Tools

Using Shears

• Shears can now detach tethered mobs by cutting both incoming and outgoing leads.
• Leads controlled by other players cannot be cut.
• Dispensers can now use shears to detach mobs from leads.
