While Minecraft 1.18 was released a little over a week ago, Minecraft 1.18.1 is already available bringing various fixes, including a critical server security issue. It is highly encouraged to upgrade your multiplayer servers to this version as soon as possible!
Additions and changes:
- Fixed an issue where players with low bandwidth would get timeout errors when connecting to a server.
- The world fog now starts further away from the player, to make distant terrain more visible.
- Instead of applying the fog as a spherical volume, it is now applied as a cylindrical volume.
Corrections:
[MC-152198] - Actual render distance is 2 chunks less than the render distance setting. [MC-219507] - Beacon power reverts to previous power when reloading the world. [MC-229321] - Bees inside hives/nests sometimes despawn. [MC-242729] - Observer activates without any nearby updates, caused by the /clone command. [MC-243216] - The rendering distance of chunks on servers seems to be shorter than in 1.17.1. [MC-243796] - Random non-fatal xceptions in the console: Failed to store chunk ConcurrentModificationException
