Framerate cap can now be changed, with toggles of 40 FPS, 90 FPS and 200 FPS.
Improvements for slow and old computers.
Shift-clicking an item in the crafting window now only moves the crafted item into the player's inventory.
Version number no longer displayed while playing. Still visible on title screen.
Bug Fixes:
Dropped equipment no longer breaks on the first use, but used equipment will break on the first use with the new update.
Objects will now be pushed out if they are within a block.
Lighting acts normal again when placing/removing torches.
The game no longer crashes when shift-clicking to put items in a chest that is already full and vice versa.
Fixed CPU issue on multiplayer.
Saving while crouched no longer consistently teleports the player into blocks above or below when loading the save.
Exiting a Minecart or moving from one Minecart to another will no longer bump the original Minecart and make it move.
Fixed the achievements window rendering some graphics outside the clip window.
Fixed the players health appearing to be full when entering/exiting the nether.
New Bugs:
Memory leaks.
Multiple portals aren't working correctly in SMP.
Sometimes you cannot pick up items dropped onto cobblestone.
Framerate limit can not be removed, but setting Framerate limit at 90 or 200 FPS allows FPS to exceed this.[1]
Setting Framerate Limit to 40 FPS may increase CPU usage on some computers.[2]
Sometimes when trying to lie down on the bed, it fails and removes one half of the heart in MP.
Shadows sometimes do not update.
Sometimes blocks and items respawn in SMP, but you don't get anything from them anymore, you get lots of lag on reconnect.
Difficulty may revert to "Easy" when you load a save, at least when you had it previously on "Peaceful."
Sometimes objects clone after death.
Tools that have been used, then dropped and picked up, will break when used properly. This occurs when used to activate a lever or other such device as well.
Respawn after death results in being stuck until breaking block below. Does not occur at all spawn points.
If you switch from windowed to fullscreen when in a map, the mouse movement will be limited by the screen borders. This can be fixed by switching into your inventory.
Beds no longer work in SMP.
Setting view-distance=7 (or lower) in server.properties causes part of the map to revert. [3]
Sometimes when entering the World from the Nether, the sky will remain red. Only in SMP.
fire sometimes can catch wood on fire even if a solid non-flammable block stands between it and the fire
Minecarts stopped on E/W powered rail will not bounce off one another, but they will on N/S powered rail.
On unlit powered rail as part of a track which terminates at a solid block to the North or to the East, a minecart can be shoved off of the track directly into the block, by a player or by another minecart, as shown in this minecart station.
