The bug
Unlike Java Edition, the bedrock block has a loot table in Bedrock Edition. That is, when it’s broken (with e.g. /setblock ~ ~ ~ air destroy, it drops itself. However, due to the resolution of MCPE-224635, it’s impossible to evaluate the loot table of bedrock with /loot mine.
How to reproduce
Place some bedrock and stand on it
/loot give @s mine ~ ~-1 ~
Expected results
You should get one bedrock item.
Observed results
You get nothing.
Notes
Due to the resolution of MCPE-224635, a tool of sufficient tier is required to evaluate a block’s loot table, but there is no tool sufficient to break bedrock. The loot table is present and exists, /setblock ~ ~-1 ~ air destroy successfully drops the item, but the command whose entire purpose is to evaluate loot tables is unable to do so because of some irrelevant trivia about tool tiers.
Hi!
Thank you for your report!
However, this issue is Working as Intended.
Bedrock block is unobtainable by mining, thus command won’t drop anything.
Please note, that mechanics of the game may change between updates.
Things such as graphics, sounds, world creation, biomes, redstone, villagers, and animals may not work the same in current versions.
