Minecraft: Java Edition developer, Mojang Studios, recently released a new update that fixed multiple issues in Minecraft Snapshot. The developers made a small change related to raw ore where it can now be crafted in a compact form to save inventory space. This change is pretty good for players who want to mine without taking multiple trips to the chest to save materials.
For issues, developers have fixed several problems like Goats not attacking anything and players not receiving experience by mining coal ore. Goats now ram into anything that moves, so beware when you are lurking around them.
