Data-Driven Block Models
Added the first pass of the new data-driven block tessellation pipeline
Added the “minecraft:geometry” component to allow using a block model for rendering
Added the “minecraft:unit_cube” component to allow using a default unit cube for rendering. Unit cubes get some extra effects like ambient occlusion and face removal

Added serialization to Block Descriptor
Added static anyMatch functions to BlockDescriptor to compare a list of BlockDescriptors against: Block*, BlockLegacy, or BlockDescriptor
Added a function to compare two BlockDescriptors. This covers: matching blocks, any tag of either descriptor match, block states with matching permutations
Changed the BlockDescriptor BlockLegacy member variable to a Block* so we can set the block states during deferred block resolution and get the block with the states set
Removed all the existing Block* json parsing
Schema
Split ‘allowed_blocks’ into ‘use_on’ and ‘dispense_on’
‘use_on’ specifies what blocks an entity placer item is allowed to be used on, omit to allow all blocks

Commands will be segmented in sequence and randomize nodes as expected
Run Command
Added support to entity json events for the ‘run_command’ keyword alongside the current add and remove keywords. It supports both a string and string array format, where the string is the command intended to run.

Added child object “volumetric” which contains “density” and “media_coefficients” objects. These hold the data values used for the volumetric fog
Record Item Component
Items can now be made records to play music in Jukeboxes
Component Variables
sound_event – A string value correseponding to a sound event in the game code. This string must be one these for music to play: “13”, “cat”, “blocks”, “chirp”, “far”, “mall”, “mellohi”, “stal”, “strad”, “ward”, “11”, “wait”, “pigstep”
duration – A float value that determines how long particles are spawned from the JukeBox Block, should approximately match length of sound event
comparator_signal – An integer value that represents the strenght of the analog signal, used by the Comparator Block
Examples

Items
Renamed items to be consistent with the list of Java Edition items
Created RepairableItemComponent that data-drives how an item is repaired in game
Items can now override their display name with a localized ‘value’. If a value is not supplied, the component will stay with its default name. If the value supplied is not in the localization file, the display name will be the value string
Added a Lock in Inventory component that can be applied to an item via the ‘/give’ and ‘/replaceitem’ commands. This prevents the item from being removed from the player’s inventory, dropped, or crafted with
Example of use: `/give @s apple 1 0 {“item_lock”: {“mode”: “lock_in_inventory”}}`
Added a Lock in Slot component that can be applied to an item via the ‘/give’ and ‘/replaceitem’ commands. This prevents the item from being moved or removed from its slot in the player’s inventory, dropped, or crafted with
Example of use: ‘/give @s apple 1 0 {“item_lock”: {“mode”: “lock_in_slot”}}’
Added a Keep on Death component which can be applied to an item via the ‘/give’ and ‘/replaceitem’ commands. This component prevents the item from being dropped when the player dies
Example of use: ‘/give @s apple 1 0 {“keep_on_death”: {}}’
Item Icon Component
Items now have an easy way to set the icon for an item for displaying in the user interface
Component Variables

“frame”: Molang script to be executed at runtime to determine the icon’s current frame. Can be a constant, defaults to: 0
“legacy_texture_id”: The name of the texture used on legacy items. No default
“legacy_frame”: Molang script to be executed at runtime to determine the icon’s current frame. Can be a constant, defaults to: 0
Item Parsing

Examples:
“item”: {“any_tag”: “food”}
“item”: {“any_tag”: [“food”, “wood”]}
“bribe_items”: [“emerald”, {“any_tag”: “stone”}]
