Bugs

This page lists bugs or glitches found within the game, reported by players. This page is not updated frequently, so some of the listed bugs may have already been fixed.

Bugs in bold require more detail on how to reproduce them.

Inventory Bugs

• 1.28: I have no idea if this is a bug, but the backdrop for stone is Rock Backdrop, not Stone Backdrop. - Injinji (talk) 11:57, 24 February 2018 (CST)
• 1.28: After the bone shuriken has been thrown, when the player tries to retrieve it, it gives bedrock that disappears when clicked in the inventory. TheTopazRobot (talk) 13:43, 28 December 2018 (CST)

Item and block bugs

• When you mine a chest in a dungeon without taking the loot the chest regenerates, making it a source of infinite chests, but the loot in it does not get dropped when you mine it, and is still in the regenerated chest. Injinji (talk) 11:55, 3 December 2017 (CST)
• 1.28: Rabbit's foot seems to be lower quality than other items and looks very blurry in the inventory. TheTopazRobot (talk) 10:32, 16 March 2019 (CDT)
• 1.28: If a pressure plate is activated and then you jump and then precisely pause the game and then exit the game before it updates to being unactivated again, the blocks it is powering will remain powered until it is pressed again. Myreportingaccountyes (talk)
• 1.28: When sand/gravel drops on stairs or a slab from enough height (at least 2 blocks between), the stairs/slab is destroyed without dropping. Nillpartel (talk)
  • I'm not seeing the bug. 1.28 exe on Win10. Tried creative and survival/cheats; dropping sand & gravel on wooden stairs. Eekee (talk) 20:13, 11 August 2019 (UTC)

Pistons

• 1.28: When you activate a Sticky Piston and then break the second part of it, it will drop a Bedrock and if you try to pick up the Bedrock, the Bedrock will disappear. Myreportingaccountyes (talk) 10:11, 26 May 2019 (CDT)
• 1.28: When you activate a Sticky Piston and then break the second part of it and then place a block where the second part is supposed to be and then deactivate the Sticky Piston, the block will disappear. Myreportingaccountyes (talk) 10:11, 26 May 2019 (CDT)
• 1.28: When you activate a Sticky Piston and then break the second part of it, then place a door/activated piston/bed where the piston head was and deactivate the piston, half of the double block is removed and the other half remains as an extremely buggy block. If you try to break the remaining block you will get a door/piston/bed however the block will not disappear, making it possible to get an infinite amount of door/piston/beds. This block cannot be broken even in creative or using tnt. If the block is a door, it cannot be shift-clicked however other blocks work as usual except only the part of the block that can be seen can be used. If tnt is used on it, the tnt freezes and disappears if you reload the map. The bed can be removed by pushing it with a piston, the piston by deactivating it and destroying it, and the door can be removed by placing a block on the invisible half of the door and breaking it (this removes the block used and is the other of the two known ways to break bedrock and the barrier block in survival mode). Shift-clicking the door before breaking it fixes the door and removes the block early. (Note: the glitch can only be done in certain block positions.)

Bow and Arrows

• 1.28: Arrows shot from infinity bows can be collected, allowing the player to obtain an unlimited number of arrows. TheTopazRobot (talk) 17:32, 26 December 2018 (CST)
• 1.28: Power does not affect the damage dealt by a bow TheTopazRobot (talk) 17:32, 26 December 2018 (CST)
• 1.28: Arrows pass through rafts, minecarts and tnt minecarts, and flame arrows do not ignite tnt minecarts. TheTopazRobot (talk) 17:32, 26 December 2018 (CST)
