Normally Minecraft snapshots arrive on Thursdays, but this week is special (who knows, we might get another one Thursday!) it seems. Today Minecraft Snapshot 13w4a was released for download through the Minecraft launcher. Here's the changelog by Minecraft Wiki, and check the source link for the full install instructions.- New command:
/setworldspawnor/setworldspawn <x> <y> <z>- Sets a new point as the spawn for all players (even if they have never joined the server or are offline, but will not override beds)
- Added two new saplings, both obtained from their respective tree types
- Acacia Sapling, dropped from acacia leaves which share the oak leaves texture, which grows trees found in savannas
- Oak Roof Sapling, dropped from oak roof sapling leaves which share the oak leaves texture, which grows trees in roofed forests
- Must have 4 saplings placed in a 2x2 square to be grown, much like Big Jungle Trees
- Added two new logs
- Acacia Wood, which has a texture resembling jungle wood, but with less green
- Oak Roof Wood, which shares its texture with spruce wood
- Both can be crafted into Oak Wood Planks
- Added two new leaves that are visually identical to Oak Leaves
- Acacia Leaves
- Oak Roof Leaves
- Currently, the trees themselves both drop either Oak or Spruce saplings (Bug?)
- Music played by Jukeboxes now loops
- Changed Pufferfish texture
- Maps now slightly protrude outward in item frames
- And have an item frame texture on the sides (and front, if map is not fully loaded)
- Boats have been reverted to the previous WASD controls
- Players can now "sprint" in boats and horses, which speeds them up slightly
- Can still be controlled by mouse, but will not respond to mouse-control if A or D, or custom movement controls, are pressed
- And several bug fixes
