HP is stuck at 19 and doesn't regenerate to full amount

I have the same problem, and frankly, I find it kinda funny. Hopefully it's an easy fix for the team.

From a near-death experience, it appears that for some reason the health value appears half a heart less than it actually is. I was at zero hearts in a hardcore world and I did not die.

Thank you for your report!

Is this issue being triggered in a normal world, or only in a Realms world?

In singleplayer worlds, not realms.

For me, any golden apples or regen potions recover the half heart but it dissappears later!

Are you able to provide steps to reproduce this and a video showcasing the bug?

For me at the beginning of my worlds (2), life did regenerate completely, but after a while it stays stuck at 9 and 1/2. Both worlds in hardcore. The drowned is not needed as mentioned, since any damage that mobs do to me, after a while it no longer regenerates completely.

I've experienced this on the PS5 preview, and I'm positive it's only visual glitch.

Please confirm if this is still an issue in the latest release and/or preview.

affects 1.21.20 release, but I think it was fixed in the 1.21.30 previews.

Please can you confirm this?

I am encountering the same glitch. It's a single player world, but I use a Realm to transfer it between my console and PC. Today I downloaded the world from the Realm to my PC, and the first time I took damage, it only healed to 19. I've taken damage again to see if it would go to 20, but it stays at 19. Latest update.

Ye I'm getting the same glitch. It keeps putting me to 19 hearts and it wont let me increase it  I'm playing on ps5 on normal mode by myself. I also have the newest version of minecraft. Do you have any idea on how to fix this?

This is still happening in 1.21.20.

Reopened

I encountered this with the 1.21.20 update and have some observations:

1. This seems to apply only to regeneration with food.

2. Switching to peaceful difficulty allows HP to reach 20, and will remain 20 after switching back to a non-peaceful difficulty.  However, taking damage and regaining health by eating seems to revert to the 19 HP ceiling.

3. Having the regeneration effect gains full health.

4. Drinking a health potion also can bring health up to full.

I've tested this on both an Android 12 device and on Windows 11.

This is still going on in my realm, i'm using an Xbox. Latest update.

1.21.20 PC, survival - have the same problem.

Regen potion healed up to 10 hearts. I haven't taken damage so I cannot confirm if it gets stuck again at 9 1/2 hearts.

Same issue here on my single player survival world.. Playing newest update on xbox series s.

This bug is still going on. My friends and I have noticed this going on for the past few days ever since the new patch dropped. the only way to regenerate all of your health is either with regeneration potions, or potions of instant healing. Will be uploading my picture file to this thread when I can join my realm again... CONSIDERING I STILL CAN'T CONNECT TO REALMS EITHER.

I realized that not only does that half heart not regenerate, but you can also live with 0 hearts and this is going to act like you have half a heart until you take enough damage, I hope they fix it soon

I am also stuck at 9 1/2 hearts.   This issue only started for me as of the recent update.   1.21.21

Nothing to do with drowned.  Just will not fully recover after any damage.  

Playing on Bedrock PS5

Apparently this issue seems to be caused by the fix for MCPE-183157 in the 1.21.30.21 Beta & Preview. While the health is in fact rounding up, the HUD does not seem to be updating to indicate this, because the game already thinks the player's HP is Full.

This issue appeared alongside with MCPE-183157, so the fix for MCPE-183157 cannot be the cause of this issue.

Same issue. Regenerate potion will bring it to full. As does a heath potion. If you take damage it will never fully regenerate. Playing on both ps4 and ps5. Bedrock.

[[Mod] Jarl-Penguin|https://bugs.mojang.com/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=Jarl-Penguin], does that mean that MCPE-183157 and MCPE-182594 have both not been fixed by the 1.21.30.21 Preview?

permanent half heart of damage, particularly on bedrock dedicated server for 1.21.3. full food makes no change, logging in and out makes no change. restarting server makes no change. half of heart only refills upon death.

I couldn't reproduce this in the 1.21.30.X previews, so I think it is already fixed in these versions and will also be fixed in the 1.21.30 release

Same issues on Nintendo switch, full hunger, missing half a heart. If I die it returns to normal but as soon as damage is taken it gets stuck again 

Came with the most recent update for switch

It is not present on the CubeCraft server. [Update]

I have started two new worlds on Xbox one. One on normal difficulty and one on hard difficulty. On both after the first time I took damage I only filled up to 9 and 1/2 hearts. Logging out and back in changed nothing.

@unknown: No, this bug has clearly been fixed in 1.21.30.22; that is why the Fix Version/s field exists and is not empty. Same goes for MCPE-183157, which was fixed in 1.21.30.21.

The bug triggers by taken more damage than 1/2 of your final heart if you set it to peaceful than set it to easy or higher it will regenerate normally, if you take damage more than 1/2 on easy or higher it won't regenerate last 1/2 heart.

This has gotten worse since it doesn't regen at all; if I continuously take damage, it is possible to die, since I never get the hunger effect even if I'm jumping from four blocks. I can't eat period even when standing with half a heart waiting for the hunger to kick in. It never does. With this, unless I carry around regen potions it is impossible to survive mobs of any kind.   Tried in new worlds, no change.   Platform: Microsoft XBOX Series X on Realms and Local Worlds.
