===== Global palette =====
 
A table/dictionary/palette mapping nonnegative integers to block states. {{change|The block state IDs can be constructed from this table by multiplying what the Minecraft Wiki calls “block IDs” by 16 and adding the metadata/damage value (or in most programming languages block_id << 4 {{!}} metadata).|Block state IDs are created in a linear fashion based off of order of assignment.  One block state ID allocated for each unique block state for a block; if a block has multiple properties then the number of allocated states is the product of the number of values for each property.  A current list of properties and state ID ranges is found on [http://pokechu22.github.io/Burger/17w48a.html burger].}}

==== Tab-Complete (clientbound) ====
 
 
{{Need Info|This is most definitely no longer an accurate description of this packet}}
 
 
The server responds with a list of auto-completions of the last word sent to it. In the case of regular chat, this is a player username. Command names and parameters are also supported. The client sorts these alphabetically before listing them.

==== Chunk Data ====
 
{{Main|Chunk Format}}
 
{{See also|#Unload Chunk}}
 
 
The server only sends skylight information for chunk pillars in the {{Minecraft Wiki|Overworld}}, it's up to the client to know in which dimenison the player is currently located. You can also infer this information from the primary bitmask and the amount of uncompressed bytes sent.  This packet also sends all block entities in the chunk (though sending them is not required; it is still legal to send them with [[#Update Block Entity|Update Block Entity]] later).
 
 
{{Change||Indexes into the global palette are still used, but since the global palette has changed, behavior is different.}}

Recipe ID:
 
These are hardcoded values in the client and server, all the recipe json files will be loaded in a specific order (alphabetical, like sounds) and internal ids will be assigned in that order. There are also inbuilt recipes like fireworks, banners, etc., these are the first recipes to have their id assigned. Due the fact that the recipes are loaded in a specific order will the ids very likely change when recipes get added. [https://twitter.com/dinnerbone/status/856505341479145472 Custom recipes are scheduled for Minecraft 1.13], so most likely will things change a bit in that version.

There is currently a pre-release version available: 1.21-pre2, but it has not yet been documented. For the latest stable Minecraft release, see the Protocol page. For previous pre-release pages, see the Protocol version numbers page.

One who wishes to commandeer the merging of this into Protocol when an update is made must be sure to respect any changes that may have occurred to the respective packets there.
