Confirmed
The bug
You can't see the blockdata of a flower pot change after using a /blockdata command.
How to reproduce
- Place down an empty flower pot
- Use /blockdata x y z {Item:"cactus"}
→ Nothing happens - Press F3+A (to reload all chunks), or force a block update, or log out and log back in
→ Now the flower pot has a cactus in it
Why this should be fixed
If a custom map maker has a flower pot on a piston head (a block that will disappear if there is a block update) then setblock would not be an option since the piston head will disappear. Blockdata doesn't make the piston head disappear but it does require a client-side refresh.
