Minecraft 1.6.2 Pre-release

1.6 brought with it some unfortunate bugs, but they are being squashed in record time! Mojang really rolled up their sleeves on this one, and the bug-fix list is almost too huge to put in one place. Doesn’t mean we aren’t doing it anyway!

The patch is focused on sorting out bugs and issues that people have found. Notable bug fixes are:

• Fixed horses starting to suffocate when touching walls
• Fixed animals escaping their pens
• Improved sprinting behavior
• On Mac, holding Ctrl while left-clicking now counts as a right-click
• Custom fonts look better

Full list of fixes:

• Powered pistons drop as items in creative
• Player’s and Horses head while riding having strange behaviour when looking at the skin in the inventory
• Animals going out of fenced areas/suffocate in blocks when loading chunks
• Chat concurrency issues
• Packet flood degrades server peformance
• When putting a sign in front of water it keeps running
• Trapped Chest looks like Regular Chest in inventory / item frame
• Attacking wild Wolves with any kind of projectiles (Arrows, Snowballs, Potions) will cause any nearby tamed Wolves to attack their owner
• Reloading a world while player is in moving Minecart or riding a horse is glitchy in F5 mode
