Changes

• Commands

      • Allows to print player's names
      • Example: /tellraw @a {selector:"@a[team=TeamRed]"} will print everyone who is on TeamRed
      • Also works with /title
• Caverns
  • Now generate on the surface of desert, mesa, mega taiga and mushroom biomes
• Tab list
  • Made tab-list more consistent and a little prettier when using health display objective.
  • Now groups together teams
  • Now sorts players by name
• Spectator mode
  • Adjusting fly speed in spectator mode now works vertically too.
• World borders
  • If you’re stuck outside the world border, it is possible to freely fly/walk around (not possible to freely walk through the border from the inside though)
• F3 debug screen
  • The 'Towards Positive/Negative X/Z' is back
• Block meta data
  • Blocks no longer have bits for meta data, the freed up bits are now used for block ids (dynamically)
• Slimes
  • "Slime sizing was moved to a post-spawn method, so the slime's canSpawn() method would report spawnability based on the initial size, not the final size. There is an added secondary check which fixes the issue."
• Splash
  • "Run, coward! I hunger!"
  • "Blue warrior shot the food!"
  • "Warning! A huge battleship "STEVE" is approaching fast!"
  • "Rise from your grave!"
