Re: Anyone using tripwire hooks and what for?

Well, I feel like I might be late to the party here, but I did have a use for them as well. If you remove, or change their functionality significantly, I'll be needing to go find a new mob farm design. I have a rather nice high efficiency mob farm entirely based on using tripwire to detect mobs as q...

Re: Silverfish help [spoilers?]

The biggest part of your problem is you're not giving it enough time. On our server we did a little science and after crunching a few numbers I found that silverfish blocks have a half-life of about 13 hours. Basically, they have a really low chance of breaking out at any given point.

Have the recipies for columns and pedastals changed?

I wanted to make some for my base, so I went and checked the recipes on the wiki. However, in my world I attempted to make them based on what the wiki said nothing appeared in the crafting grid.

Re: Hardcore spawn story, and a question

I spent two minecraft days in my lovely village before dying (I arrived during the night, and died two nights later). So I guess the reset spawn time is shorter than that (unless there is a random element in it). Yeah, it's only like a minute or so. It's just to prevent people from spam killing the...

Re: BTW 4.38 - Cow in Breeding Harness don't pick up wheat?

Also of note here, this is a question much better suited to the tech support forums. In relation you your problem, make sure the wheat is right on them. Cows don't have much range for feeding.

Re: Problems with timing bellows :(

In one of the BWR test worlds, if there are too many mobs and you're standing in the chunk where the crucible is a lot of the time you won't get complete melting. Leaving the chunk, doing something else, and coming back, and it'll be fine. So lag & server capacity can affect this. I'm going to ...

Re: Home - First Glimpses

Yeah, that's for sure... I don't have enough imagination to even concieve of Home at this point. Probably overthinking it. Well isn't Minecraft as it is now a simplified version of DF with only one Dwarf? No. They both have voxel based rendering (though that's a bit more loosely applied in DF), but...

Mouse 3 doesn't work

While working on a build in survival mode, I noticed the same bug mentioned by ozziie. When working on larger builds I tend to use M3 to more quickly switch between blocks. However certain mod blocks come up with a different block. (i.e. when clicking on an oak siding it will switch to stone siding ...
