Re: New Release! (BTW CE v1.0.0)

the integration of mcpatcher is exactly what was having me take pause. I've always used mcpatcher and swore by it.

Thank you for continuing my favorite game (or hobby?), love to all involved in making this happen

Re: New Release! (BTW CE v1.0.0)

I'm having issues installing this. Can you verify, please, the correct process?

Thank you in advance. I am ashamed to have to ask.

Re: Ruins and Structures 1.0.0

I cannot wait to check this out! I need to wait until there's a way to use it with the terrain addon. I always wanted to do something like this myself, except the whole not knowing at all how to write any type of code whatsoever. I'd always thought how fun it would be to be able to tweak the structu...

Re: Share your memorable deaths?

Got a shareable death... But not mine. My home is on the line of a desert/snowy forest/grassland. While "recruiting" portable dung factories, I heard the unmistakable snarl of the beast. I ran like the wind, my new companions in tow. Never saw my stalker. Once home, after de weeding the pu...

Re: Looking for help with the early game

I make my early game all about nomading and raiding temples/structures to get diamonds, dig down to Redstone, compass to zero point and then start a farm. If you find pumpkins, they can keep you alive while grinding your way up to mechanical power, via hemp. Past that, a whole new adventure awaits. ...

Re: Frequent HC spawns result in missing health/hunger/more

I just found out it's intentional. Even stated in the hardcore hunger wiki page.

You lose swim due to low Health, not from HUNGER.
My main concern was the HC Spawn thing. Thank you for clarifying that for me.

Frequent HC spawns result in missing health/hunger/more

Recently died, respawned perfectly normal. After a second, rapid death, and many consecutive deaths, kept spawning with low health and hunger levels. Other things also seemed strange, such as being able to swim even when literally starving to death. After some time went by, another death resulted in...

So the recent changes have dragged me, kicking and screaming, away from the overt safety of my spawn centric "never leave home after an as short as possible early game nomad trek". At first, I felt like a vampire in 'John Carpenter's Vampires', being dragged out of it's den by a tow wrench...

The recent changes have taught me to slow down, take my time, and stop chasing instant gratification. Can't wait to build my mob trap, reading this change log. My current game has me holed up in a desert town (with no crops). I killed all the "previous residents" and have a temp settlement...

I was concerned about this myself.

You can mitigate this is...

I'm curious as to how you've gotten knitting wool to reference the color that the wool is when it's showing as part of the tool, being knitted, in your hand? I see the 'damage' data is used to determine progress of the knitting, and when the piece is completed, but are you using an nbt tag or someth...
