Dispensing Bonemeal Crashes Game

Someone posted that this has to do with bonemealing short grass. 

Not fixed yet in beta 1.14.0.4 nor beta 1.14.0.6. Reproducible by placing a dispenser facing upwards, filling it with some bonemeal, topped with (multiple) grass blocks. Whether a flower, sapling or nothing is placed on doesn't seem to matter. When the dropper is powered it has a high (but not always) chance of crashing the game immediately.

I was able to replicate this on Bedrock Dedicated Server similar to Foxy No-Tail's video.  Dispenser with bonemeal, facing up into a grass block with a poppy on it, with that grass block being the center block of a 3x3 of grass.  The server crashed as soon as I activated the dispenser.

If it helps, this was the console output:

This crash happens no matter what direction you dispense into whether the bottom top or side. It will instantly crash the realm.

Edit: This will not only crash a realm but if you try it on a normal world it will force close the game

I am having the same issue in v1.13.1 when using a dispenser placed upwards with dirt on top. The dispenser works with one block of dirt but crashes when there is dirt in a radius of 1 around the dispenser.

This issue is happening in 1.13.1 for me

Same for me in 1.13.1. Worked perfectly in 1.12.

Also noticed droppers won't push items up through blocks (like soul sand) anymore, instead it shoots it out sideways. Not a bug or problem really, just thought it could be relevant.

Having the same issue while running BDS Version 1.14.0.9.  The flower farm hadn't been used during 1.13.1 but only since the Version 1.14.0.9 update to the server so unclear when it first occurred.  All users are using the 1.14 client on Windows 10.  Tried changing out the clock type for the flower farm but noticed that made no difference.  Changed from clock to direct button input but no difference.

Getting the same issue on Nintendo Switch and PS4. More specifically, dispensing bonemeal into a grass block will crash if the result is flowers. It doesn’t crash if the result is grass/weeds.

Yep this is still happening on the latest client on Xbox 1, flower farm crashes the world and the game freezes, only option is to quit the game, have not tried on a realm, but heard it's the same from other people

Just tried it with the new 1.14.1 release that came out today, still crashing.

Yes, this bug is not fixet in the last version

Aparrantly it takes down windows defender too or something.

According to my testing, the game crashes when bonemeal from a dispenser attempts to grow a flower. If the dispenser is only using bonemeal on one grass block, and it grows grass, there is no crash. But when i extended this to 5 blocks of grass in a plus sign, it grew some grass, froze and crashed every time. In addition, it does not seem to matter which direction the dispenser is facing.

Seems to crash on realms instantly.

Also just tried it on feb 11 2020 and successfully grew grass 4 times. I'm assuming once it tried to grow flowers it crashed.

I set up an automated flower farm with a red stone clock, now I can’t open my world without it crashing straight away 😞 any way to open a previous autosave on PS4 to stop the clock?

Hey gwyn, I had the same problem.
In first place u need a copy of your world in a PC and open it with MCC Tool Chest. U can empty the dispenser or delete it.
Save the map and go back to the PS4.

Had this happen few days ago. Crash only happens when a flower is dispensed.

just happened to me today on both single player world and realms. 

happened to me today while trying to design a flower farm. also crashes if the dispenser is on the side of the grass block

can confirm for windows 10 bedrock. 1.14.3

A fix for this issue has been implemented in 1.15.0.51 "Fixed a crash that could happen when dispensing Bone Meal into a Grass block"

If this is still an issue in versions above 1.15.0.51, please comment below and include steps to reproduce the issue. Current beta release is 1.16.0.51.
 

Yes, it does appear to be fixed by the Beta update. I currently have 1.16.0.55 installed.

Since it is fixed in the beta update, when will the fix be released for the public (non-beta) customers?

I was just messing around in a flat testing world testing flower farms for my main world, And I was putting the bonemeal in the dispenser that was under a grass block. When i put a lever on the side of the dispenser the game crashed. I was confused and it crashed three more times. It has crashed my game every time I have tried.

Does not crash when firing downwards into a block. And shows bonemeal particles as it should. Could be trouble detecting which blocks above grass are air

The bug is still happening on version 1.14.60

same thing happened to me and now I cannot get into my main world 

i cnaot join my main world wih my friends anymore because of this bug please fix it soon mojang
