The latest Minecraft snapshot 25w35a introduces several significant updates, predominantly focusing on the much-anticipated improvements for Copper Golems, a feature that has captivated the interest of players and developers alike. Included in this update is a unique offering that broadens the accessibility and international appeal of the game: the addition of support for the Halychian language, a niche Ukrainian dialect known as Galician.
Copper Golems Enhancements
The Copper Golems have undergone a series of improvements that promise to enhance gameplay significantly. Their hitboxes have been adjusted to a height of 0.98 blocks, enabling them to efficiently navigate through one-block-high spaces. This adjustment addresses a previous limitation where pathfinding was cumbersome in confined spaces, bringing smoother interactions between players and these metallic companions.
Additionally, the persistent issues related to Copper Chests, particularly those arising during the spawning of a Copper Golem, have been resolved. This fix ensures more reliable gameplay mechanics, enhancing the overall player experience. Equipment slots for Copper Golems have also been modified, further tailoring their utility in the game.
Enhanced Server Management
Server management also gets a boost with this snapshot. Several server properties have been transitioned into game rules, offering server hosts the flexibility to modify these rules on-the-fly while the game is in progress. This dynamic control facilitates smoother server operations and enhances the customization of the gameplay environment.
The development team at Mojang continues its efforts to support dedicated server administrators by integrating a new server management API. This tool is designed to streamline server maintenance and operations, possibly leading to a more robust multiplayer experience.

A host of nearly 50 bugs have been addressed in this snapshot, reflecting Mojang's ongoing commitment to refining Minecraft's gameplay. These fixes cover a wide range of issues, from minor graphical glitches to more severe functionality impairments, contributing to a more polished and stable gaming environment.
