Parity means making features behave consistently across different Minecraft editions, most commonly between Minecraft: Java Edition and Minecraft: Bedrock Edition. Use this category to discuss released features that exist in both versions of the game but work differently. Please note that bugs are not parity issues and should be reported separately.

(Java Parity) Chest placement rules

https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MCPE-31661

Bedrock Edition has slightly different chest placement rules than Java Edition that make certain things more difficult or impossible.

Java-specific behavior:
* When not sneaking, the chest first tries to connect to its left neighbor, then its right neighbor.
* When sneaking, the chest tries to connect to the chest clicked on (to the right or left).

Bedrock-specific behavior:
* When not sneaking, the chest first tries to connect to its north/east neighbor, then its south/west neighbor. This makes chest placement directional.
* When sneaking, rules are exactly the same as when not sneaking. This makes it impossible to choose how your chest will be placed when placing it between two single chests.

    At least chest placement should not be directional.
