  • The texture is a hybrid of the rejected observer texture () for Pocket Edition, and the previous texture.
• Redstone output side now blinks when it outputs power.

Items

Enchanted books

• Curse of Vanishing, Unbreaking III and Mending now appear in the tools as well as the combat tab of the Creative inventory.
