 Description   

When you die and then resize your window, the buttons for respawning and quitting are unusable.

Steps to repeat:

  1. Load a world.
  2. Die.
  3. Resize the window (maximise, minimise, manual adjustment)

Alternatively

  1. Load a world where the player is already dead.
  2. Resize the window.

This was never fixed. I can even reproduce this in 15w31c. See MC-216459.

Comment by fTester [ 04/Aug/15 ]

this works even without resizing: MC-30646


It can be extended:

Create an (ingame) undeletable but unplayable hardcore world.

Environment:
new hardcore world (2 times)

Reproduction:

- create hardcore world
- die (I falled from a high place)
- resize the window (I max. it)
You wont be able to do anything (see the original bug) now so:
- close the window with "X"
- restart minecraft
- load the world
You will see: "Game over" and "Delete world"
- klick "Delete world"

Effect: You will get kicked to the main menu, but the world wont be deleted!
You just can "play" it again: You will see the "Game over" again and again.

You can delete it from the main menu, sure, but not with dieing in the hardcore world

.
See my issue MC-85062

Hahaha, I've had this bug for ages.

But was always lazy to report it.

Will be reporting stuff i don't find usual now on.

Comment by Bentroen [ 02/Aug/15 ]

Thanks, Grum!

Comment by [Mojang] Grum (Erik Broes) [ 31/Jul/15 ]

Man this existed way too long for something that could be fixed with a single line.

Comment by [Mod] Pokechu22 [ 07/Apr/15 ]

Confirmed in 1.8.3.

Comment by Amr Satrio [ 08/Feb/15 ]

Confirmed for 1.8.2-pre6.

Comment by KingSupernova [ 07/Dec/14 ]

Confirmed for 1.8.1.

Comment by Marcono1234 [ 29/Jul/14 ]

Confirmed for 14w30c

Comment by Arthur Bradbury [ 20/Jun/14 ]

Can confirm still in 14w25b. Resizing or pressing F11 causes buttons to become unresponsive. http://imgur.com/sfWtyKr
Pressing F6 (start Twitch stream) without linked accounts, then pressing escape seems to rectify buttons after a second or two.

Comment by Deleted account [ 09/May/14 ]

YoYoYonnY, no, that's not a Java problem. It seems that the buttons are being re-initialized when the window size changes.

Comment by GoodKingFilms [ 11/Apr/14 ]

Can a Mod please update the affected versions? It is still a problem in 1.7.8! Thank you.

Comment by Itouch2 [ 05/Mar/14 ]

Still a concern in 1.7.5 and 14w08a

Comment by YoYoYonnY [ 15/Feb/14 ]

Guessing its a java failure, it might not register a window resize while bussy; Might be unfixable for the mojang team .

Comment by Bentroen [ 27/Dec/13 ]

Confirmed here.

Comment by Fenhl (Max Dominik Weber) [ 22/Nov/13 ]

Affects snapshot 13w47c.

Comment by Haz Mit [ 14/Sep/13 ]

This is getting extremely annoying... Confirmed in 1.7 snapshots.

Comment by Fenhl (Max Dominik Weber) [ 13/Aug/13 ]

I can confirm this in Minecraft 1.6.2 on OS X.

Comment by Fjodor Dostojewski [ 19/Mar/13 ]

I can confirm this. Switching back to non-fullscreen does not help.

Comment by Kumasasa [ 27/Nov/12 ]

Can reproduce by resizing the window / toggling fullscreen at least for

  • Select world
  • Customize Flatland (Remove layer)
