Mushroom blocks

The stem texture is also incorrect. In java they all have the white exterior unlike in bedrock edition where they are similar to logs. I believe this is also the case with brown mushroom blocks (Note that red mushrooms were used in the photo of my earlier comment)

Testing it in 1.10.0.4 Beta, I find that both red and brown stems produce a stem block with white sides and pores on top and bottom, but caps produce blocks with pores on all sides, and the red and brown pore blocks will not stack with each other.

Affects 1.11.0.1 beta version

Affects 1.11.0.3 beta version

Affects 1.11.4 (Windows 10)

Confirming Red mushrooms can not be silk touched to get red mushroom block

Confirmed cannot get red mushroom block with silk touch on 1.11.4. Are their plans to fix this as it's been an issue for a year? Thanks!

It's actually always been this way in the Bedrock version. We've reported it to the developers, but the bug tracker staff doesn't get status updates so I can't tell you about any plans or schedule to fix it. For that, you need to contact a Community Manager, which you can do on the Minecraft Discord or via their Twitter accounts. (We sometimes have trouble with the Discord moderators sending people back here for status updates. If they do that, explain that we don't get updates and ask them to refer you to a Community Manager. Alternatively, you could look for a CM to be on Discord at the time and ask them directly.)

Confirming that on realms LG Q6 bedrock 1.12 on android 8.1 not obtaining red giant mushroom blocks anymore. However, the stem blocks can be obtained when mined, just the rest of the expected red mushroom blocks fall as plain mushroom blocks. (image added)

Auldrick, your comment is totally unhelpful as I dk how to find CM in discord.  

My issue is when I mine with silk touch, the red mushroom block only breaks as the inside tan sponge material. I received the stem and the beige sponge blocks from a giant red mushroom when I mined it with silk touch on Nintendo switch and iOS.

I'm playing on Xbox One (1.12). I also have experienced this issue. Using silk touch of any kind on the brown or red mushroom yields the 'interior' block.

I've tried to connect with people through discord with no avail.

I've contacted @Celesion on Discord. I've created a ticket report.

Re-opening because I accidentally linked a duplicate in the wrong direction and closed the wrong ticket.

As of 1.12.1, mining a huge mushroom results in the following drops:

• If mined with a non-Silk Touch tool:
  ||Mining a||Drops||For Java parity, should drop||
  |Red cap block|0–2 red_mushroom/0|0–2 red_mushroom/0|
  |Brown cap block|0–2 brown_mushroom/0|0–2 brown_mushroom/0|
  |Red stem block|0–2 brown_mushroom/0|nothing|
  |Brown stem block|0–2 brown_mushroom/0|nothing|

• If mined with a Silk Touch tool:
  ||Mining a||Drops||For Java parity, should drop||
  |Red cap block|1 red_mushroom_block/0|1 red_mushroom_block/14|
  |Brown cap block|1 brown_mushroom_block/0|1 brown_mushroom_block/14|
  |Red stem block|1 brown_mushroom_block/10|1 red_mushroom_block/15|
  |Brown stem block|1 brown_mushroom_block/10|brown_mushroom_block/15|

Dropping a brown_mushroom_block when mining a red stem block might have been intentional, because otherwise the identical-appearing drops would not stack together in inventory, which players might find confusing. However, it has the consequence that if you mine an entire huge red mushroom with a Silk Touch tool, then later mine the dropped blocks with a non-Silk Touch tool, they will drop both red and brown mushrooms, which players might find even more confusing since the same thing doesn't happen if you mine a huge brown mushroom.

Sooo, are you are saying that bedrock edition we are unable to obtain the red cap blocks in survival? I just spent quite some time in creative designing a build, and discovered that the red mushroom block cannot be mined or crafted. I mined with silk touch and only received the stem blocks and the bland interior of the red mushroom. 

Yes, that's correct, you cannot obtain either the red or the brown cap block in survival in Bedrock. Instead of the cap, you get blocks with pores on all faces, the blocks you're calling "bland interior". And by the way, the stem blocks you got are different from the ones you would have gotten in Java. They have pore textures on the top and bottom, whereas Java gives you the stem texture on all faces.

Incidentally, none of the blocks used to build either kind of huge mushroom are dropped when you mine it, so if you accidentally break a block in a huge mushroom it's impossible to repair it.

That’s a real disappointment. Is a resolution being worked on? Kind of hindrance on gameplay.

For Bedrock, the bug tracker is only a way to submit verified bug reports to Mojang. We don't get progress updates, so I'm not able to answer your question.

This bug does have a fairly high number of upvotes, which helps. But on the other hand, mushroom blocks have had these issues since the early Pocket Edition days, and there haven't really been any reports of serious gameplay issues because of them. In fact, I have to say I don't understand why you say it's a hindrance to gameplay. You don't need to build giant mushrooms in survival to accomplish any of the game's objectives, and if you're building in creative mode the blocks you need are available by using the /give command with the data values shown on the Mushroom Block page of the wiki. For example, to get red cap blocks you would use the command

/give @s red_mushroom_block 64 14

Well is it not a hindrance in the creative aspect of minecraft, I mean if someone has per say a 100% survival world they can't express their skill
of building custom biomes

Use pistons to push the colored parts around that's what I do.

Ok, so you're saying you don't have complete artistic freedom to obtain and place blocks with an arbitrary arrangement of textures on their faces in a 100% survival world. That's true, but it's not unique to mushroom blocks. You can't obtain and place a lit furnace or a damaged anvil, for instance, and there isn't always a way to get that ability by manipulating the blocks. These special textures just aren't available in Survival.

But that's by design, and it's the same in Java Edition. So what you're looking for is a new ability not currently in the game. That's a feature request, not a bug. It belongs on the Feedback site.

Except that in Java, mushroom blocks drop as having the mushroom texture (for example, the red with dots) on all six sides. From there, you can place mushroom blocks next to them, and when you remove those blocks, the side that touched turns into the "spongey" interior appearance.

Meanwhile, mushroom blocks in Bedrock have that spongey texture on all sides.

I know Minecraft is moving towards feature parity, so I don't know whether this qualifies as a bug or a feature request, but either way it's something that seems to be different for no good reason.

@unknown: Fair point. I've never played Java and wasn't aware the cap blocks would change when you placed and re-mined them. Given this info, I'd judge that this probably qualifies as a parity issue. I'll try to make sure the extra information gets communicated to the developers (eventually; the PS4 integration is keeping all of us pretty busy right now).

BTW, these were some of the earliest blocks in Pocket Edition. At the time, parity was a goal but I think Mojang thought of it as a far distant goal and was less concerned with making PE a perfect clone than with getting a playable version of it, so it looks to me like they kind of took a shortcut with these blocks. And until this ticket, nobody was really making an issue of the difference.

 It's definitely a parity issue, but there were some technical issues in the past that kept it from being ported to Bedrock. Need to revisit if those are still true.

As far as technical issues, it is likely because the block drops itself with data value 0. This happens to be the mushroom with pores on all sides.

Java Edition uses a block state for each of the 6 faces. Since block states are not stored when in item form, the "pores on all sides" appears when placing rather than when mining.

Bedrock is supposed to receive a flattening, which will include changes to many IDs, as well as block states. It should fix this bug automatically.

Each mushroom block in Java has 64 states (each face can show either the red/brown/stem texture or the pores texture, so that's 2^6 possible combinations), while Bedrock is AFAIK still limited to 16 states. Stem blocks are also different, as in Bedrock they are variants of red/brown mushroom block, while in Java they have their own ID and are the same for both red and brown mushrooms. The placement differences can only be fixed if/when Bedrock finally recives the flattening.

In the meanwhile, mushroom block drops could be changed to the 6-sided cap variants (data value 14) instead of the pore variant (data value 0). Stem variants already drop themselves, so that's fine.
