Apologies , my mistake, plus they could improve this website a little more not exactly as organized as other sites but that's just me

Then why are you on the PC (MC) version of the tracker, instead of the MCPE version, saying you can't find it?

Comment by Stephen maatstap [ 21/Apr/16 ]

Unless this conversation is for PC then excuse me

Comment by Stephen maatstap [ 21/Apr/16 ]

FVbico, I'm talking about PE not PC

Comment by user-f2760 (Inactive) [ 21/Apr/16 ]

scat_66x, creative, miscellaneous, second to top row, second from the left, there it is.

Comment by Stephen maatstap [ 21/Apr/16 ]

Why do people keep saying there ender pearls in this version I see none

Comment by [Mod] Skylinerw [ 30/Jan/16 ]

@Scat_66x This report was resolved as "Fixed" in 15w31a and is no longer an issue. Make sure that when you confirm reports, you check the resolution as well as if it occurs in the very latest snapshot.

Comment by Stephen maatstap [ 30/Jan/16 ]

Confirmed, I have the same issue, no ender pearl in my inventory and no mod hats

Comment by Dlawso the Really Lucky Rabbit [ 30/Jul/15 ]

Again, fixed in 15w31a.

Comment by Dlawso the Really Lucky Rabbit [ 29/Jul/15 ]

Fixed in 15w31a

Sorry to be that guy but what made Ender Pearl damage different from fire damage, explosion damage, poison/wither damage etc?

Comment by killer killeropoulos [ 09/May/14 ]

it would be rly usefull if it worked on creative
except that u could travel faster u could also pass through redstone circuits instead of destroyng them.I cant think any reason y it shouldnt work

Comment by [Mod] Torabi [ 08/Jun/13 ]

Only the developers can state for sure whether anything is intended. The players can only make educated guesses. I've yet to see an explanation for why the developers want it to work that way, but the code makes it pretty clear that Ender Pearls cannot be used in creative.

Comment by Robert Tulley [ 07/Jun/13 ]

This is not intended, or if it was, it should have been. This works in the XBOX edition, and there is no reason why it shouldn't work in the Computer version. There is no reason why ender pearls should not be used in creative mode.

Comment by Oliver Henriksson [ 17/Feb/13 ]

A bit late but I have to ask, what kind of exploits could there ever possibly be? In creative mode you're supposed to go beyond the survival game and be creative, how can you exploit in the mode that should allow you to do anything?

Comment by Dean Baset [ 17/Feb/13 ]

@fuj1n Can you link me to that tweet please?

Comment by fuj1n (Arthur Uzulin) [ 11/Dec/12 ]

The exploits do not really include quick travel, Dinnerbone has once mentioned that he is working on an alternative of ender pearls for creative.

Comment by sciguyryan [ 11/Dec/12 ]

Considering you can fly in creative mode, I hardly call this an exploit. It really should be corrected because it really isn't sensible.

Comment by fuj1n (Arthur Uzulin) [ 11/Dec/12 ]

This is a feature, in creative you can't really take damage, the ender pearls were programmed to serve damage to the player when they are used, this behavior prevents all sorts of exploits.

Comment by Simons Mith [ 28/Oct/12 ]

So, what should we do if we would like to see this issue addressed, so that Ender Pearls /do/ work in creative? Where should we complain/ask? A feature request on this tracker?

Comment by Oliver Henriksson [ 25/Oct/12 ]

Indeed, but seeing it from a 3rd party perspective I have a hard time seeing this as anything else than a bug, it also fits in their wanted "Expected behavior VS Actual behavior" format.

Comment by sciguyryan [ 25/Oct/12 ]

This is intended behaviour. The code explicitly checks if the user is in creative mode and then does not allow its use if that is the case.

I don't know if there is a reason why this is the case but maybe someone knows why.
