This page covers a snapshot version that has multiple major issues under certain conditions.
*Mining an empty jukebox creates an invisible "Air" item. Interacting with the item will crash the game and likely delete the chunk the jukebox was in.[1]
- Creating a comparator subtract loop will hardlock the game.

13w01a is the first snapshot for Java Edition 1.5, released on January 3, 2013.[2] It mainly added an assortment of new redstone components. This is the first snapshot released in 2013.
Additions
[edit | edit source]Blocks
[edit | edit source]- New ore exclusive to the Nether.
- Drops 1 Nether quartz item when mined.
- Generates around netherrack.
- Stores redstone dust similar to blocks of diamond, etc.
- Emits constant redstone power.
- Works as a pushable redstone power source.
- Output power while receiving sunlight.
- The level varies depending on the time (more sunlight = more redstone power), and it does not function at night.
- Places and takes out items in hoppers, chests, furnaces, minecarts with chests, dispensers, and brewing stands.
- Allows for the automation of many processes.
- Still a work in progress (as indicated by the inventory icon
).
- Has 3 inputs and 1 output. Input from the back is considered signal A, and whichever side gives the stronger signal is considered signal B.
- Has 2 modes: comparison and subtraction.
- In comparison mode, if A≥B, the output is A, otherwise output stays off.
- In subtraction mode, if A≥B, the output is A-B, otherwise output stays off.
- Replacement for the "capacitor" idea.
- Gives out a signal depending on the amount of players looking inside. 1 player = 1 strength signal, 2 players = 2, etc.
- Crafted with a chest and a tripwire hook.
- Large trapped chests can be staggered with large chests to allow more compact storage.
- Texture is slightly different than a normal chest, with a red stain around the latch.
- Detects item stacks.
- Gold version reaches full strength at 60 items.
- Iron version reaches full strength at 600 items.
- Linear, so 10 strength signal means twice as many items as a 5 strength signal.
Items
[edit | edit source]- Used for crafting Nether bricks.
- Obtained by smelting netherrack.
- Item dropped from Nether quartz ore.
Changes
[edit | edit source]Blocks
[edit | edit source]- Are more stable from previous versions.
- Sticky pistons are less sticky.[more information needed]
- Are now more consistent.
Items
[edit | edit source]General
- Now shows the item name in-game.
Gameplay
[edit | edit source]- Now show the weapon someone was killed with.[more information needed]
Inventory management
- Double-click items to fill the stack up as much as possible.
- Drag item stacks around[more information needed] to divide them up over the dragged-over slots.
- Drag item stacks around with
Right Mouse Button to place one of that stack in each dragged-over slot, if that slot is not occupied already. - Shift double-click an item stack to move all other item stacks of that kind to that part of the inventory.
- Press Q while the mouse is over an item in the inventory or a container to drop it.
Bugs
[edit | edit source]- [MC-5711] Redstone torches attached to the side of a block do not pop off if the block supporting them is destroyed.
- [MC-5721] Dragging to spread an item out in the Creative inventory, then clicking on the inventory tab, and placing the 0 stack item down, the game crashes.
- [MC-5728] Infinite loop caused by subtraction mode comparators causes the world to be unplayable.
- Mineral duplication: players can exponentially dupe minerals by putting then in a crafting table with a block of their material, then double clicking on a mineral in the crafting table, works on the same principle as the method below.
- Crafted item duplication: any stackable crafted item can be duplicated by setting up its recipe in a crafting table, then double clicking an existing version of this item in the inventory. Requires at least one of that item to be present in the inventory.
Fixes
[edit | edit source]From released versions before 1.5
- MC-177 – [12w26a] Clocked piston arm turns invisible when exiting game/dying/etc.
- MC-184 – [Beta 1.2] (Powered) redstone doesn't update right.
- MC-5621 – [Beta 1.7] Blocks like redstone dust, repeaters, doors, and levers don't drop when the underlying block is pushed by a piston.
