Paper Minecraft Updated Devlog


NOTE: These updates are NOT by me.

Decently large update that adds a few gameplay changes (including a few features from 1.21 snapshots) and improves QOL, performance, fixes a LOT of bugs and makes the game easier to mod/develop. I have also laid down the groundwork for features like Trial Chambers which will be coming next update.

Update 1.15.0

Worldgen:

  • Added Desert Wells for Suspicious Sand (Instead of it spawning in random blobs)

  • Changed the frequency of Ruined Portals and Trail Ruins

  • Updated loot tables of all structures to be more accurate to the real game

  • Added Copper Ore

  • Added Soul Sand Valley mini-biome in the Nether

Mobs:

  • Added Armadillos found in the Savannah, that rolls up when in danger and can be brushed for Scute

  • Added Wolf Armour that can be equipped on tamed wolfs and removed with shears. They have 52 durability and their durability corresponds to the amount of damage the wolf wearing it had taken (Wolfs still dont attack hostile mobs, that is planned for the next update)

Miscellaneous:

  • Added Soul Speed Enchantment, obtained only from bartering with Piglins or from Bastions. Its applied to leggings and makes you go 45% faster when walking on Soul Sand

  • Blocks like Honey, Cobwebs, Sweet Berry Bushes and Soul Sand now slow you down when you walk on/through them

  • Revamped the Golden Crown item, (inspired by the TCC datapack). It’s been renamed to the Cursed Crown and when worn any mob you kill will drop 1-3 golden nuggets

  • Hoppers have been revamped, now they can be placed sideways and can transfer items into composters, decorated pots and furnaces

  • You can now put items in decorated pots using hoppers

  • Added Spyglass which can be used to see things from far away

  • Added Copper Blocks, Cut Copper, Chiseled Copper, Copper Grates and Copper Bulbs which oxidize over time. They can be waxed with Honey Comb to prevent oxidizing and an axe can be used to un-oxidize them

  • Added Soul Soil used to craft soul torches/lanterns and found in the nether

  • Added 3 new advancements to do with new copper blocks: Wax on, Wax off and Lighten Up

  • Added Tuff Blocks and its variants and added Chiseled Variants to certain blocks

  • Added Copper Bulbs which emit light when powered but get dimmer as they oxidize

  • Added nuke

Technical:

  • Plants like vines, bamboo and sugar cane now no longer need to be bonemealed at the tip

  • Recoded the loot table system so that its easier to code and control the rarity of certain items, also made all loot tables more accurate to the actual game

  • Revamped DEBUG menu showing more information

  • Added /place command used to spawn in structures

  • Added /cursor command to toggle cursor modes

  • Added /loot command to give you an item from a particular loot table

  • Added /setblock command used to place blocks

  • Added /drop command used to spawn in harvested items

  • Added /killdrop command that deletes all dropped items

  • Advancement toasts no longer lag the game

  • Made code simpler and easier to mod (Dev tools can be found in ‘Villager Trading’ sprite)

  • GUI of Hoppers, Smithing Tables, Grindstones and Anvils now have their own GUI instead of being reskinned chests/crafting tables

Update 1.15.1

Technical:

  • Added /place command to spawn in structures

  • If you hit a mob with its favourite food it no longer takes damage
