            <title>[MC-3981] Dispensers no longer dispense items through blocks in the downward direction. </title>
                <link>https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MC-3981</link>
                <project id="10400" key="MC">Minecraft: Java Edition</project>
                    <description>&lt;p&gt;So I have a stage based on Call of duty Nazi Zombies and I had dispensers put behind 1 block to hide them. The path of least distance was where the items popped out. Which was downward. &lt;br/&gt;
It worked 100% of the time. So I expected the items to pop downward.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;What actually happened was the items never went downward they popped out up and to the sides, aka the path of most distance.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;1. Place a dispenser and wire it up to a button.&lt;br/&gt;
2. Make sure its up in the air.&lt;br/&gt;
3. Put a block in front of the dispenser then place a layer of 9 blocks 3x1x3(x,y,z) 1 above the placed block.&lt;br/&gt;
4. Then surround that dispenser and block with more blocks in the same shape as the above 3x1x3 layer. (This is hard to explain, im doing my b best)&lt;br/&gt;
5. Now 1 more layer of 3x1x3 under the placed block and punch out the center 1 block. &lt;br/&gt;
6. Now it should look like a 3x3x3 cube with a dispenser in the side and a hole in the center bottom layer.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Now this hole is the path of least distance(or resistance) and the item should just pop out on the empty space on the bottom layer.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;ALTERNATIVELY you can move that dispenser outward 1 replace that spot where the dispenser was with a block then break the very center block of that 3x3x3 cube. &lt;br/&gt;
What it should look like is a cube with a dispenser on 1 of its 6 sides. with a broken center block on the bottom and 2nd layer.&lt;br/&gt;
So Now its easy to see that the least distance is to travel through that 1 block on pop out on the other side in the center of the cube. But it does not do this, it will pop out somewhere else.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&amp;gt;Fixed by adding the abbility for Dispensers to shoot downwards.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Meaning, the current behavior is as intended, and that you should update your map, rotating the dispensers.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>

It is not resolved. Instead now it just flings the item out of the top in the forward direction like the dispensor is facing up and a wind carried it forward.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>

                            <comment id="26911" author="wiphand" created="Fri, 7 Dec 2012 13:19:11 +0100"  >&lt;p&gt;This is not a bug. In 1.4.* they changed that items now go upwards if they are in a solid block. If you have a piller 3 by 3 and whatever you put upwards. Then if you put the items IN a center block it will now go upwards not to the nearest hole.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>
