 Description   

The survival inventory is not saved as separate from that of creative mode. Because of this, all items that were previously in the player's inventory are removed upon switching gamemodes to and back from creative. _Edit:_hotbar and inventory are lost, but not your equipped armor - armor being worn remains despite game mode changes.

I apologize. But remember, this is the only way get information.

Comment by rplatham [ 04/Feb/16 ]

Considering creative inventory has changed significantly in the 0.14.0 beta testing currently on going, there's no need to reopen. Also, these comments are exclusively for providing information about bugs, not for requesting information from moderators/developers. In all likelihood MissMarzenia will delete these comments since they are not relevant to the bug.

Comment by 8times9 [ 02/Feb/16 ]

Could a moderator communicate why this has not been opened? Thanks!

Comment by Jayson Gallardo [ 02/Feb/16 ]

I also request that this be reopened

Comment by 8times9 [ 02/Feb/16 ]

The inventory being erased when switching to creative is a leftover feature from when a fully functional creative inventory was not present.

I respectfully ask that this be reopened.

Comment by [Mojang] MissMarzenia (Aleksandra Zajac) [ 04/Dec/15 ]

Yes, it will save your inventory.

Comment by Jayson Gallardo [ 03/Dec/15 ]

What does that mean? Does that mean we won't have to worry about losing inventory in the future?

Comment by [Mojang] MissMarzenia (Aleksandra Zajac) [ 03/Dec/15 ]

This is a missing feature, not a bug. We will have working creative inventory in PE in the future.

Comment by Jacob [ 02/Nov/15 ]

You do not even have to open the world just click on creative and the inventory is gone, that is a bug if you ask me.

Affects 0.12.2 bug fix release.

Comment by L3ice [ 11/Oct/15 ]

Through this bug I lost my whole inventory in one of my first survival worlds.
Since then I never played the world again, because its not funny anymore.
Thanks Mojang

Even if this is intended design, perhaps the inventory clear should only occur once the player enters the game with a different gametype, not when the setting is toggled.

Luke's idea of saving the Survival inventory upon switching gametypes would solve user confusion too!

You have iOS 9.2? iOS 9.1 is still under beta testing.

Comment by Sammy [ 07/Oct/15 ]

Comfirm on iOS 9.2 iPad 4

Comment by 8times9 [ 14/Jul/15 ]

Shouldn't this bug report be closed?

Comment by Joseph Bohnert [ 17/Jun/15 ]

If this is so, then why are there all items in creative inventory. We can't open chests and they don't save in our hot bar; so what is the point?

Comment by 8times9 [ 06/Jun/15 ]

Yes, that is intentional. And really annoying.

Comment by Joseph Bohnert [ 06/Jun/15 ]

It works when I change from survival to creative but when I go back to survival after that it's gone.

Comment by Joseph Bohnert [ 06/Jun/15 ]

It doesn't save my items though. I tried it.

Comment by 8times9 [ 06/Jun/15 ]

This is intentional. I think it was added in the last build (14) of the beta builds. Personally I think that it should save your survival inventory, and upon switching back to survival, you would have your items back. And this really shouldn't be in the game. It's not in PC or Console editions.
