 Description   

Milking a cow or mooshroom with a single bucket or bowl (not a stack of them) causes the player to immediately consume the milk (or mushroom stew, if the player's hunger bar is not full). This bug only appears when using touch input, not when using a mouse. Controller input not yet tested.

When doing this, the selected hotbar item changes from an empty bucket/bowl to a full one. Doing this by touch input seems to be the root of the problem. If the player uses a stack of buckets/bowls, then the full bucket/bowl does not become the selected hotbar item and the bug does not occur.

Original report:

In trying to milk a cow with iron pot should preserve the milk in the pot, the error is that milk is drunk without notice.

It is confirmed fixed in 0.16.0 for me. Samsung galaxy tab 4 android 5.0.2

Comment by Ellis Haynes Waters [ 26/Oct/16 ]

Affects 0.15.10 on iOS also.

Seeing as 0.15.90.7 bug fixes should carry over to the official 0.16.0 release, I will leave this closed for now.

0.15.10, Android 7 on an LG Nexus 5X, happening here too.

A couple other quirks I noticed about this that haven't been said: tapping anywhere in the world will cancel the drink animation. From the bucket, If you switch to a bow, the bow will draw. If you switch to an egg or stack of eggs, they will be thrown.

Affects 0.15.10 on Win 10, but appears to be fixed in 0.15.90.7

Please reply and update affected versions if you're still able to reproduce this issue.

Comment by R. Brown [ 11/Jul/16 ]

Affects 0.15.2 on iOS as well.

Affects 0.15.0 Beta build 1 according to MCPE-14898.

Also affects milking a mooshroom (instead of a cow) with a single bucket for milk.

Seems to be related to the fact that the selected hotbar item is changing from an empty bucket to a milk bucket. This could explain why the bug can't be reproduced when the player holds a stack of buckets.

Same bug is at play when clicking "Milk Stew" on a mushroom when holding a single bowl. See MCPE-14466.

Finally, using a mouse for input in win10 cannot reproduce the bug. Win10 needs to be using touch to reproduce.

Yay. We'll be no longer deadly thirsty and can't resist the temptation of milk

Comment by Luis Robles [ 25/Jan/16 ]

Android 5.0.1

Comment by Torben Schamborski [ 03/Dec/15 ]

Confirmed

When you have a stack of buckets in your hand (2 or more) you can milking a cow with out drinking the milk immediately.
You can switch normal between milk bucket and other items.

The bug only happens if I have only one bucket in my hand and milking a cow.

Submitted for a fix.

Comment by rplatham [ 13/Nov/15 ]

Confirmed on Samsung Galaxy S4 Active Android 5.0.1 MCPE 0.13 build 5.

After taping the milk button the player immediately consumes the milk. I expected the player would not start drinking the milk immediately after milking and without prompting from the player.

Even if you switch to another item, when you switch back to the milk the player immediately starts drinking when s/he should not.

If you open the options menu, the player will stop drinking the milk (this can be used as a temporary work around for this bug).
