This packet sends all block entities in the chunk (though sending them is not required; it is still legal to send them with [[#Block Entity Data|Block Entity Data]] later). The light data in this packet is the same format as in the [[#Update Light|Update Light]] packet.

Contains a list of key-value text entries that are included in any crash or disconnection report generated during connection to the server.

Note that the Notchian client requires an [[#Set Center Chunk|Set Center Chunk]] packet when it crosses a chunk border, otherwise it'll only display render distance + 2 chunks around the chunk it spawned in.
+
==== Clientbound Server Links (configuration) ====
  
The compacted array format has been adjusted so that individual entries no longer span across multiple longs, affecting the main data array and heightmaps.
+
This packet contains a list of links that the Notchian client will display in the menu available from the pause menu. Link labels can be built-in or custom (i.e., any text).

A bit will never be set in both the block light mask and the empty block light mask, though it may be present in neither of them (if the block light does not need to be updated for the corresponding chunk section).  The same applies to the sky light mask and the empty sky light mask.

This page documents the changes from the last stable Minecraft release (currently 1.20.6, protocol 766) to the current pre-release (currently 1.21-pre2, protocol Snapshot 200). Note that this page contains bleeding-edge information that may not be completely or correctly documented.

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.
