Changes in this version:
Blocks:
- Coral blocks in 5 colors: blue, pink, purple, red, yellow
- Coral turns to dead coral (grey) when not in contact with water
- Currently only obtainable in the creative inventory
- Chests no longer have air around them in water
World generation:
- Underwater ruins/villages
- Loot chests, often buried one or two blocks deep
Small ruins: enchanted fishing rods, wheat, coal, rotten flesh, stone axes, emeralds, wheat, leather chestplates and golden helmets
Big ruins: coal, gold nuggets, emeralds, wheat, golden apples, enchanted books, gold helmets, leather chestplates and enchanted fishing rods
- Cold ruins can be found in cold, frozen, ocean biomes - regardless of depth
- Warm ruins can be found in warm, lukewarm, and deep lukewarm biomes
- Can generate alone or in a big ruined village
- You can also sometimes find them slightly underground or slightly above sea level
- There are 24 new ocean structures. 12 "warm ruins" and 12 "normal ruins". 8 of these ruins are "big" ruins. The "ruins" spawn in a mix of block types "brick", "cracked" and "mossy".
- Ocean_Ruin is now a valid argument for /locate
Mobs:
- Phantoms no longer spawn in the end
- Phantoms now despawn in the daytime
Misc:
- Experience is now accumulated in the furnace when items are taken out by hoppers and granted when a player takes an item out manually
- Fixed one of the magenta dye recipes being unlocked when getting an ink sac
- Fixed the recipe for bowls not being unlocked until a bowl or a mushroom is obtained
- Fixed furnaces not awarding recipes or experience when the output is taken after a reload
- Fixed furnaces not accounting for multiple recipes with the same output when giving experience and smelting recipes
- Optimized particle rendering slightly
