Re: 1.9 pre-release or full tomorrow.

I don't understand why he expects people to like (in lack of better terms) half-ass content, and call it a complete game it's worth noting that the game still say's Beta in the top left corner. that's not an accident :/ both notch and jeb indicate through twitter than they hope to get something out...

Egg Incubator

I have a feeling i've seen this suggestion somewhere before, but i couldn't find it using the search function, so i'm assuming it was for another mod. In fact, other mods probably already have it, but anyway. An egg incubator powered by redstone that increases the chances of an egg hatching. from 1/...

Re: Area based things

i'm not 100% positive everything i said was correct, but i'm like 96.6% sure. both your idea's seem very plausible, but we're probably all missing some major issue that FC would rather not take the time to explain. on top of that you're both getting rather close to discussing programming techniques,...

Re: String/rope/hemp fibers in place of feathers for arrows

on a sidenote for animals, it's been confirmed that they do still respawn... just much, much, much more rarely. i've run some my own tests and this thread seems accurate:

Re: Area based things

that's not the only issue bigshinytoys... having a block regularly check it's surrounding blocks requires a bit of memory. the more blocks that do this, the more memory it requires. by using unfired Pot / Crucible / Vase, you end up only checking blocks that are relatively quickly destroyed after be...

Re: Sawdust

i don't think it'd be entirely aesthetic... there's some value in being able to create rooms inside your home using thinner walls. but yeh i suppose it is mostly aesthetic, unless it's also used as a fuel/fertilizer. maybe it stretches bonemeal out, so you mix 1 part sawdust with one part bonemeal, ...

Re: Area based things

i've been thinking about it myself but from a different angle. considering how chests are a model, and if you put two of them next to each other the model changes, there might be a way to build machines that require a certain combination of blocks to be placed around each other. so you put down a hi...

oh, definitely take the time as a gift, and play as much as you can handle. with the larger biomes and persistent mobs, it seems to be a very different world out there. and start many new worlds :) i find that now, when i start playing a new world the first thing i do is find the nearest ravine or m...
