Re: The Feature Request / Suggestion Thread - LIMITED TIME O

3rd strata stone only easily breakable with SFS tool instead of diamond. Being able to safely and easily strip mine the good stuff relatively early on in progression lessens the danger and scarcity issues most of us seem to masochistically enjoy. In my opinion (for what its worth), caves through th...

Re: The Feature Request / Suggestion Thread - LIMITED TIME O

Not exactly, no. On barrels: I don't know man. Maybe I'm still missing something, but this feels a lot like a "give barrels a purpose" idea, rather than filling a specific in game need. tbh, it's mostly just intended as a convenience feature, similar to the item frames suggestion I put on...

2. Allowing barrels to be used as a no-gui inventory Not sure I understand what purpose this is supposed to serve. Sounds almost like a cheap non-filtered Hopper alternative. Is there something here that you had in mind that I didn't catch? The intent is to provide a convenient no-gui alternative t...

A few little things that I just remembered; 1. Back-porting the later versions of minecraft's item frames not breaking completely if you left-click on them with an item already inserted in them. This akes item frames into a really great way to easily store a single item in a highly convenient and ac...

Now that i think about it, with hardcore buckets is not that easy a feat to do that now. Exactly!

Recently I noticed that you can make cobblestone and all the stone fences with just a workbench, while wooden fences need a saw.
