13w01b is the second snapshot for Java Edition 1.5, released on January 4, 2013 to fix some of the bugs and crashes in the 13w01a snapshot.

Changes

Blocks

Chests

• All containers output a redstone signal when a comparator is placed against it directly.
  • The strength of it depends on how full the container is.
• This works with trapped chests as well, meaning it can provide two redstone signals with different causes at the same time.

Hoppers

• Rails can now be placed on top of hoppers, which allows emptying chest minecarts.

Fixes

20 issues fixed

From released versions before 1.5

• MC-302 – TNT explosion delayed until exiting and re-entering world.
• MC-1619 – Infinite rail duplication glitch.
• MC-3287 – Inconsistency with pistons pushing items.
