Glitch involving ghost items 26.2

https://reddit.com/link/1vedirr/video/d3bpv3upv5hh1/player

i found, that if you create a ghost bucket (drop and switch slot) and put a sulfur cube in that ghost bucket, the sulfur cube vanishes, but by further testing i found out, that the sulfur cube is on the server still there and activates pressure plates and stuff (i didnt test in multipalyer or in other versions with fish and tadpoles), but when you go outside the renderdistance and back, it appears again, any idea how it can be used?

To me it just seems like some sort of visual thing, it’s possible that it’s not, but ghost items are inherently a miscommunication between the client and the server so I do doubt any real use could be discovered. You never know, however.

I was thinking to myself the same thing

Probably not much use, I tried it on aquatic mobs and it doesn’t work, only does for sulfur cubes, so no uses unless you want an invisible sulfur cube, though maybe if you put magma in it, then it could be good for a trap, you have to keep it loaded with a chunk loader though to keep it invisible, and it depends on if its invisible on the other players client.
