Bug Fixes

Performance and Stability 

• Improved terrain building speed when flying with Elytra (MCPE-85614)  
• Fixed a bug that would crash the game when using the crafting table on Creative mode  
• Fixed an issue with a runaway block ticking queue that occurred on a looping data-driven block that changed itself to a different permutation. The bug could cause memory issues, increase load and save times, as well as stalling the game periodically 

Technical Changes  

• Reduced content warning spam with data-driven block geometry  
• A fix for dedicated server that copies the experimental toggle state to LevelSettings while initializing the server instance to make sure it uses the values specified in the loading world 
• Fixed data-driven blocks to shrink UVs the same was as actors to prevent UV bleeding
