| Description |

If there is more than one bucket in a dispenser the source blocks may end up overwriting each other. What I expected to happen What actually happened Steps to Reproduce Windows 7, not sure about the Java. (P.S This bug is stopping the creation of probability devices that completely outclass any old cactus based probability generators, allowing almost any probability to made accurately.) |

Is this still a concern in the latest Minecraft version 14w04b? If so, please update the affected versions in order to best aid Mojang ensuring bugs are still valid in the latest releases/pre-releases. |

Confirmed in 13w06a. There is no obsidian, etc. though, the liquid just overwrites whatever's in front of it. |

I refuse to believe that any creation built by a player would rely on the way this works currently. All it causes is breakages and blocks and items being destroyed. I don't think the developers intended for it to work this way, but rather didn't think of the situations where this causes hassle. The change I am saying about wouldn't affect most players, if any at the moment, other than allowing more complex things to be created. There are easy ways to work around the problems you are saying about, but none fore what I am saying. Plus I'm not even sure anything would break with this change. If you could tell me what incredible creation would be broken because of this then I would happily listen. I know of no one who would be unhappy with this change, and most generally it's up to the community as a whole what they want to be changed. As of yet it is no people wanting for this to be kept against me and the people I've told about my design which know that it could be very useful. |

Whether or not a particular behavior is a bug is up to the developer. If it's working how they intended it to work, then it's not a bug, no matter how much the user may dislike it. What you're requesting would make more sense to you, but could be confusing to someone else, and may break their creations. |

Here is Wikipedia's definition of bug; A software bug is an error, flaw, mistake, failure, or fault in a computer program or system that produces an incorrect or unexpected result, or causes it to behave in unintended ways. |

When a dispenser is triggered, it picks an item from its inventory at random. It then uses it in a way appropriate for that item. Empty buckets, when used on water and lava source blocks, remove the source block and change into the appropriate type of full bucket. The current behavior is just the consequence of that. What you're asking is that it should not pick randomly, but should choose which item to use based on the block in front of the dispenser. This is a request for a change in functionality, not a bug report. |

I've tried it in numerous worlds, and it works the same in every one. |

On the other world or on your main world? Somtimes, the redstone position my be weird at some moments (North-South | East-West). |

Seems to be working as intended. |

Did you try the exact thing in a other world?? Did you make sure you did a on--off state with thre redstone? |
