[MC-68915] Particle effect "take" does nothing

/particle take <x> <y> <z> 1 1 1 1 <count> does nothing..................
okay, turn particles on and still nothing.

I did not check 1.8.3 but I believe you and I am checking it now in Minecraft 1.8.5.

On gamepedia there seems to be no indication of what it is

Confirmed.

I think it's supposed to show around a player after they get an achievement. (Wow, that's a word [achievement] that I can't spell very good and got it in one try!) That's just a guess.
Edit: Changed (()) to ([])

How exactly does it get used for the item pick up animation then? If you can't even see it then, it might as well be removed or given a propper texture.

In MCP (935), take a look at net.minecraft.client.particle.ParticleItemPickup, which controls this particle. It does render - it draws the entity that's being picked up in positions that get closer and closer to the entity that picked it up.

It's just that you don't use the normal Particle packet to trigger it; it's got its own dedicated collect item packet.

Right, since it isn't in the particle packet, it would indeed be better if it were removed from the command.

This bug report is now invalid due to the particle being removed in 17w47a.

pokechu22 2017-11-23T05:26:20Z

Is invalid the correct resolution? Or would fixed better? Pickup still seems to be implemented as a particle - this was just handled by removing it from the list that's valid for the command, which is the original suggested fix.
