Remember that only those on Xbox One / Windows 10 / and Android may participate in the Beta builds.  You will not be able to join Realms or non-beta players worlds and you will not be able to open worlds opened in the Beta in earlier/current stable builds of Bedrock.  These builds are not to be considered a final build and are a work in progress.

This latest Beta has a few changes to Frogs, a cooldown period on the Goat Horn, changes to Drowned spawns, and many, many fixes.  Read below and find out.

Experimental Features

Frog

• Frogs now only use jump animation when using Jump Goal
• Frogs are now tempted and bred using Slime Balls
• Tadpole health is now 6
• Adjusted Frog spawning in Swamps, weight 10, herd size 2-5
• JumpToBlockGoal now correctly has the mob jump to small blocks like Lily Pads

Frog Spawn

• Frog Spawn now breaks when pushed by a Piston
• Frog Spawn is now destroyed when the water source beneath it is removed
• Frog Spawn no longer prevented from hatching when a block is underneath it
• Frog Spawn can now be placed on waterlogged blocks
• Frog Spawn can no longer be placed above solid ground or underwater with the '/fill' command
• Frog Spawn Block is now destroyed by falling blocks (MCPE-150781)

Features and Bug Fixes

Custom Skins

• Fixed custom skins not saving when leaving the Dressing Room

Gameplay

• Fixed an issue where the Mending enchantment would not always correctly consume XP Orbs to repair (MCPE-120119)

Mobs

• Drowned can no longer spawn where the block light level is above 0 (MCPE-150148) 

User Interface

• Fixed truncated label (in some languages) above 2x2 crafting grid in Pocket UI inventory screen
• Fixed the Create New World opt-in beta setting not persisting between play sessions

Vanilla Parity

• Cauldrons are now not fillable by Dripstones that are below flowing water

Items

• Custom armor can now be equipped with the "Use" button when different armor is already equipped (MCPE-125323)

Technical Updates

Blocks

• Fixed an issue where projectiles would 'bounce' off of Bells in strange ways (MCPE-47847)

Commands

• The '/tickingarea' command no longer modifies areas from entities with tick_world component

Molang

• Fixed Logical AND to evaluate before Logical OR, and for comparison operators to evaluate before equality operators
  • This is a Molang Versioned Change that only takes effect for Molang expressions in packs that use a min_engine_version of 1.18.20 or higher
  • For example A && B || Cnow evaluates as (A && || C and A < B == C > D now evalutes as (A < == (C > D)

Structure Generation and Actor Spawning

• Fixed duplicate End Crystals spawning on top of End Spikes (MCPE-147817)

Experimental

• Fixed an issue in which actor properties would not always sync from the server to the client

EatMobGoal

• EatMobGoal is now unable to start when the player is the target
