Daylight Cycle Visuals are broken in 1.21.11. Please fix.

So, I updated my world to 1.21.11 from 1.21.10, but upon loading, the daylight cycle is broken and there is a visual bug.

It is not going to night time, whether normally or through commands. Well, it is, but as I said, visual bug.

So it looks like it’s day time, but it’s not. I spawned mobs that burn in the daytime to prove it. I have an image to prove this below.

Mobs that burn in day time don't anymore whether its daytime or not by the code.

I cannot sleep in any bed now even if the game considers the time to be night time.

Only time of when I can is when a thunderstorm happens. Then sleeping works. In the images, there's that black line there.

That is only there when it’s night time and it’s not there when it’s actually day time.

I tried optimizing the world, I tried F3-A (Reload Chunks). I tried everything I can think of and it did not work.

This is not a mod issue. This is a vanilla game issue as I am not the only one experiencing this. Please fix this.

I´ve found out that this behavior can be seen, when you upgrade your world to 1.21.11 and having an outdated World Generation Datapack. E.g Tectonic for 1.21.10.

Hi!
Thank you for your response! 

  • Can you reproduce this issue on a new world without any datapacks installed?
