It never did give xp when breaking.

Comment by homie lizard [ 16/Oct/19 ]

if you break the furnace, it used to give the xp. now it no longer does for some reason.

@kumasasa
I think that it happened by MC-126111 being fixed in 18w09a.

Comment by Kumasasa [ 11/Aug/18 ]

Is this intentionally being fixed or accidentially?

Comment by Anon Ymus [ 11/Aug/18 ]

Confirmed fixed. Furnaces store the XP when a hopper pulls out the smelted items and give it to the player when the next smelted item is taken out manually.

Fixed in 1.13

No, it basically boils down to Jeb and co not wanting to reward you for being lazy.

If there's no tradeoff, then there's no element of choice. As it is, you can either get XP, or you can automate. Which one you want more will depend on your circumstances and playstyle. If you can get both, then it's foolish to not do it, and so you no longer have to make a choice. Games are fundamentally about interesting choices.

Austin Brock : Stop putting useless and insulting comments to the tickets.

It basically boils down to Jeb and co being lazy.

"I know, lets allow them to move items to a chest automatically, but we'll stop them having XP making it useless".

Great work, Jeb, bravo.

He has actually tweeted this several times, with his reason being that you should be rewarded for what you do by hand, not what a machine does for you.

Why is this resolved as "works as intended"? Did Mojang confirm it? It seems like a bug that only by not taking the smelted product by hand you lose all the XP. Still happens in 1.5.1.

Comment by Caleb F [ 16/Mar/13 ]

maybe if items were given a special nbt tag (maybe called "smelted" or "xpgive") that indicates whether it will give experience to the player. When the hopper takes the item out, the tag's value would be 1, but would change to 0 and give the player experience when removed from any storage by a player.

Comment by [Mod] Torabi [ 10/Feb/13 ]

But why doesn't the XP drop on the ground like it does when a player pulls the items out? It doesn't actually give the XP directly to a player, it just spawns it, like when you kill a monster or mine coal. I doubt that it's actually "Works As Intended" that it doesn't generate XP when removed by a hopper, but it is possible. Seems more like it's just related to all the other hopper bugs at the moment.

Comment by Anon Ymus [ 09/Feb/13 ]

As the furnace is currently set up, the XP is given when taking finished products out of it. With a hopper, it is impossible to credit someone with the XP because no one has specifically taken out the product.

Comment by George Freeland [ 30/Jan/13 ]

I'd point out that by denying this source of XP, it makes later gameplay more tedious – keeping multiple enchanted items in good repair is costly.
The simplest solution would probably be to enable the furnace to store XP from smelting-- rather than give XP at the time the player removes items from the furnace's output slot, XP would be accumulated in the furnace's own pool as each item is cooked. The XP could be dispensed whenever the furnace is opened (to whichever player opens it), or spilled out if the furnace is broken.

could be a feature? you only get xp from doing things by hand? (mining, breeding, fishing, killing, cooking)
