Talk:Java Edition hard limits

2 to the of 1024 is actually 1.797693134862315907729305190789 x 10^308!

?^? What is that supposed to mean?? 73.89.66.98 14:49, 6 January 2021 (UTC)

That doesn't work, the equation 1.798×10308 (21024) does not work, i checked its answer copied and pasted it. it treats it as infinity I only believe that 19,999,999 is the limit to teleport. Enzostone2015 (talk) 19:44, 1 February 2025 (UTC)

x^y is the same as "pow(x, y)" or "X to the power of Y" KD2D^tcl 10:27, 22 May 2025 (UTC)

and 2^1024 is:

179769313486231590772930519078900000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

(aka. one more than the 1025-bit limit) KD2D^tcl 10:34, 22 May 2025 (UTC)

You can teleport and then move past the 32-bit integer limit, up to (currently) the 32-bit float-point limit. – Unsigned comment added by Starfire2020 (talk • contribs) at 05:43, 16 July 2021 (UTC). Sign comments with ~~~~

The section on historical 32-bit limits gives two limits for blocks no longer being rendered and the game being likely to crash. Currently both limits are ±2,147,483,647 X/Z (the maximum signed 32 bit integer). However, the limits were different both before the most recent change, where the rendering limit is the 32-bit max, and the "likely to crash" value greater than that; as well as before this May 2021 edit, where the "likely to crash" value was now the 32-bit max and the rendering limit less than it. Does anyone know which values are correct? –Sonicwave ^talk 18:36, 9 April 2024 (UTC)

The author of the May 2021 edit reverted their own changes in April 2023 but that got reverted due to being "unexplained". I'd be willing to bet that those pre-May 2021 values are correct, although I'm still not certain due to not having any knowledge on this subject. –Sonicwave ^talk 18:40, 9 April 2024 (UTC)

What do you mean by "section"? Mitsos (talk) 14:56, 24 January 2026 (UTC)
