Re: Morvelaira's News Compilation

I've also heard on the snapshot they're in "feature freeze" mode, so big changes (like the redstone fixes) they're not apt to do until 1.4 is released...

...which I assume is going to be October 31st (Halloween release). Next release? I doubt two months later for 1.5, maybe spring.

Re: New Release (BTW V4.16)

So far, so good on my end. The addition of undertow allows my two setups for seed planting and automatic wolf feeding to continue w/o modifications (although I should tweak the wolf setup).

This actually would spare my build, as I rely a bit on that. The undertow will definitely work nicely.

Re: Seeking suggestions on how to dispense an exact amount.

From what I've seen so far... nobody's done the obvious. Hopper into a regular dispenser and fire it off every tick. If it's arrows, though, you'll need to filter them out, or else they will be fired.

FYI on bellows and redstone clocks

FYI if you're using a redstone clock for your bellows timer instead of a regular turntable based clock. Looks like the bellows need a 4 second cycle (2 second on, 2 second off); a redstone clock with five repeaters on the last setting will work. (If you're wondering why I'm using that, I'm trying to...

Yeah, I didn't look at all of it, and assumed the lower third text was in order. I do agree, though, about the API. I doubt they'll do it by 1.4.

No, it is not. It is 100% completely incompatible with every other mod. Even with Bukkit. This won't change until Mojang pushes out a mod API, hopefully in 1.4.

Great. I need to get another ARM board with more RAM on it so I can slap BTW SMP on it... wait, this is the .0 release! 48 hour wait now in place for bug shakeout. (This is my policy, not FC's. Never jump on a .0 release, because it WILL have bugs).

Not sure if it helps but, I often find squid in a decorative lake I made thats 5x5x2 usually only one or 2 a day. Since that lake is at lvl 22 I would say they can certainly spawn underground in reasonably small pools of water. My guess is they won't spawn in bodies of water that are only 1-2 block...
