I stuffed my herd in an abandoned village house, one of the L-shaped ones, cut out the wood floor, and cut one blocks holes in the walls every other block so grass could spread in.

Cheers! *raises coffee mug*

(I just woke up)

Just curious, does that checking of every side occur only on chunk load or every frame? I've never delved into the details, but my understanding is that it happens every time a block is added to the display list. So yes, that would be on chunk load or every time a block is updated and thus requires...

Episode 1a: 8I5QaEvXjRQ Episode 1b: n748NlqaQkM There ya go. I hope that is helpful in your development process. Forgive the allergies. This was good, but there is so much new material that I think there will probably be an episode 2. I can feel that I'm just nicking the tip of the proverbial icebe...

Man, its a shame you can't just *not* update for a while. I mean I'd be ok with it. ;)

Sorry you have to suffer through it. I hope it doesn't take long so you can get back to the stuff you enjoy.

I had a good laugh at this. Apparently zombies will aggro on bats as well. I found two scrolls down in a cave and a zombie holding a third. Zombie exterminators. Nice! Wait, three scrolls? Aren't they super rare? Now, I wonder if mobs killing each other increases the drop rate. Which just gave me a...

In my experience with a manual farm they spawn quickly enough. During the day, I would walk away, wait a few minutes, come back, and there'd be one to three witches spawned. Obviously lighting everything would improve it but making a farm without it is certainly viable. I, personally, only use their...

That's just what he *wants* us to think! :P

Anyone try collecting xp while holding it? (I don't have one)

But I guess he didn't like any of those options because they were "cowardly", and feels deep down that as the player he should be able to kill anything he pleases at any time. If my changes are causing people to actually have to think about how they're going to deal with certain monsters ...

When someone uses "OP", it tells me something: That they say overpowered so often that they feel the need to use an acronym to save themselves time. Thus, they use it lightly. If a monster is too tough for you to deal with at your current stage of development (like when you admit to beati...

Actually, I think poison spiders are ridiculously op now. Before the changes they were manageable. I ran into a spawner a couple days ago and got to it after a couple spiders spawned. I got hit once and the poison dropped me down to either hurt or dying (not sure). So, I made fences and killed the ...

[youtube] [/youtube] I'm finding a lot more pressure on my leather usage I've noticed. I don't know if the balance is right there but I never seem to have enough, especially considering it's non-renewable until wheat. I have to agree with Sarudak regarding the health regen, I love the nerf to the he...

My first non-abandoned village I found had carrots. Thus, my staple food atm is kebabs. So, that's a nice bonus I didn't see before- using kebabs. Before, I had no reason to, but now, I'm really glad they're there! Good stuff. Yeah, that was my intent with kebabs and steak and potatoes: one for peo...

After someone mentioned they used it to exploit the cauldron (and ran of coal AND torches somehow) I tried using the flint and steel while I dug down for coal. I gotta say, its pretty op. Its extremely cheap, has a lot of durability, and the fire lasts quite a while. I ended up hitting bedrock and b...

Yeah, I know it jacks up the balance. I've never made a tree farm because of it. I'm seriously going to miss felling a ginormous jungle tree with a couple swings, though. I'll get over it. Thanks for the quick reply as usual.

Ok, I'm not asking FC to do it, nor am I asking when it might be done. FC mentioned he would look into it and I just wanted to know if its still on the table or not: Issue: For some reason Timber! conflicts with BTW and disables the kiln's ability to smelt logs. With the new change making it the onl...

So far, which is part of what I hoped would happen, I am finding that what this does is make descending into the depths something you have to work towards. , but yes, of course like with the other changes I've made, a play style adjustment is in order. You can't just mine straight down to bedrock l...

Still testing. I'm having trouble swallowing this but I trust your judgment so I'll keep testing before I actually post something really meaningful. I will note that planks just became my staple furnace fuel. I just can't afford to use coal if I want to get to bedrock and start branch mining. I'm pr...

:| You... Well, I did say it was big. Would love to give it all to you guys tomorrow, but the space/time continuum being what it is... ;) Somehow I managed to miss your little eureka post the other day. Amazing! Glad to hear you have line of sight to wrap this up and move on to rth. Also I took the...

So, I finally got around to it and suicided so I could see how long it took me to get a compass. Results: not that long. I dug a staircase down to bedrock, dug a couple strips approx 30 blocks each and I had enough iron to make a pick, get my redstone, and make a compass. So, I'd say its pretty clos...

Eur-fucking-reka. Ok, just had a brain storm of monumental proportions that left me raving like a mad man (I don't think I drooled) about all things BTW related while my friends stared on in shock and disbelief (I think one may have been on the verge of tears for a moment there). I obviously don't ...
