Please respond and add the current version if you can reproduce this issue.

@Luis Robles Confirmed for Windows 10 Edition version 0.14.1

Comment by Luis Robles [ 13/Apr/16 ]

Does this issue still affects 0.14.1?, if so, please respond

@Thomas: Maybe, maybe not. Point remains they have bound the key wrong.
If they ever plan on adding something like horses, regardless of whether or not they have cross-compatibility, the jump and dismount keys would conflict.
Unless you want people to get used to the wrong key, when there is even a remote possibility that you might change it, or you have people going from the 'old' platform to the 'new', you probably want to bind it correctly the first time. (Stuff like that makes old players not want to play the new game). Hence why I am calling this a 'bug'.

Windows 10 and pe editions will probably never play with the pc version because they are in different coding languages. Instead people had some good theories that eventually Windows 10 will replace pc. Here's a video.

@rplathem Yes, it more of a consistency issue, but since Mojang plans on having cross-platform gaming, I though consistency would be considered at least a semi-important issue. It's also very inconvenient if you're swimming to your boat and try to ride it (since you have to hold SPACEBAR to swim). Another issue is that the dismount message is "Slow down to exit the boat", and says NOTHING about using SPACEBAR.

I'm confused. In 0.13.0, the keyboard key to press to leave a boat is SPACEBAR. Is that the correct binding, or is this bug suggesting it should be LSHIFT for consistency with MC:PC?

Confirmed on Windows 10 Edition. Version: 0.12.3

Comment by ThePhysician2000 [ 18/Aug/15 ]

@Liam: No, it doesn't. It doesn't even pop up a blurb about dismounting.

Comment by gatharian [ 18/Aug/15 ]

Does it exactly say the proper key to leave the boat when entering? If it doesn't than I would say it's a bug because other people will not know either.

Thank you @Dylan.

Comment by Dylan Linguanti Weber [ 18/Aug/15 ]

Now I get it, this is not a bug. Now I get it. you have to press the space button to leave the boat. The controls are different. This is not a bug. I thought earlier it was one. Press the space button

Comment by ThePhysician2000 [ 14/Aug/15 ]

@Florian Dueller: No. It's on the QWERTY setting, like it should be.

Comment by Charlie Smith [ 14/Aug/15 ]

I experienced this too, hope some light will shine on this bug...

Comment by Florian Dueller [ 14/Aug/15 ]

Did you change the controls?
