The Minecraft 1.21.2 update specifically targets a few minor bugs within the release candidate. It is hoped that this will be the last version before the official launch of the Bundles of Bravery, provided no additional critical problems are discovered.

Among the bug fixes, this second release candidate rectifies a problem where the player’s OnGround tag wouldn’t refresh while using a vehicle. Moreover, it resolves the issue where the sound of leaves breaking was not audible when a player was mounted on a mob. The glitch affecting block break updates that had ceased functioning in specific chunks has also been corrected.

The upcoming 1.21.2 update brings numerous experimental features, notably impacting Minecart dynamics. The second release candidate has fixed the bug that altered Minecart behavior even when experimental mode was disabled.
