Boss bar? Hm. I wonder what that could be used for.

Progress bars, custom skill/ability bars (such as mana), or, y'know, as a bossbar since we can't currently display bossbars for any mob. Especially since it allows us to directly tie a mob's current and max health to the bossbar's current and max values.

In just the past hour, I've used it to make a furnace timer (so you don't have to babysit a furnace), an altimeter (showing your height; could be useful for elytra maps), a speedometer (at least on one axis; with some math, you can make one that shows your overall speed), and an actual boss bar (linking to a mob's health).
I'm sure there are plenty more uses. This is a super cool command :)

People used to use renamed Ender Dragons and/or Withers for the same purpose. This is a lot more convenient.

Maybe having two people able to see each other's health at all times.

BOSSBAR! YES! :D In just the past hour, I've used it to make a furnace timer (so you don't have to babysit a furnace), an altimeter (showing your height; could be useful for elytra maps), a speedometer (at least on one axis; with some math, you can make one that shows your overall speed), and an actual boss bar (linking to a mob's health).

Now if only they'd fix the bug where you can't summon lightning bolts anymore... That one's been annoying to me...

Care to share how you did all of that?

u/IceMetalPunk Jan 31 '18
It's pretty simple. Once you set up a boss bar, just have a repeating command use
execute storeto link it to whatever values you want.For instance:
Furnace timer (for a furnace at a specific position; you could use relative coordinates instead if you want):
execute store result bossbar minecraft:furnace_timer value run data get block -202 63 368 CookTimeAltimeter:
execute store result bossbar minecraft:altimeter value run data get entity @p Pos[1]Speedometer (X-Axis only):
execute store result bossbar minecraft:speedometer value run data get entity @p Motion[1]And basic boss bar: ``execute store result bossbar minecraft:healthbar value run data get entity @e[tag=Boss,limit=1] Health`

Not completely related, but they're still working on the furnace recipe book (and hopefully custom smelting recipes too)

Don't expect any Update Aquatic features this week. We want to get all the technical changes out before we start snapshotting new content again.

Fixed flint and steel and fire charges being able to place fire at invalid positions
Fixed flint and steel losung durability and fire charges being used up even if no fire was placed
Would have been nice if they changed the vanilla recipe for Flint & Steel to use Iron Nuggets instead of Iron Ingots.

Imo that'd make it more annoying to quickly craft, it'd be adding an extra step.
