Re: [WIKI] A comprehensive guide to editing the BTW wiki

I added Brimstone, Mould, Iron Nuggets, Broadhead, and Unfired Pottery to the Hopper Filter section.
I know that you probably wont ever need to filter Broadheads but the rest can definitely be produced from automated systems.

Re: BTW Feature Wrapup - Passing the hat

Dave, thanks for the reminder. I have donated several times for this awesome TC but hadn't realized it had been almost 10 months since the last time.

Done!

Thank you FlowerChild! I have spent and enjoyed more time with BTW then any AAA title. Keep up the great work!

Re: Hardcore Nether Animals Discussion (Spoilers)

I don't have the the tech in my current world yet, but has anyone who is loosing animals tried looking around with Ender Spectacles? They let you look at Endermen, maybe then let you see dead people too? Interesting idea but I couldn't see anything unusual. Ran through my entire base. Tried looking...

Re: Out of the frying pan (near death stories)

Lighting caves around my base to increase my mob trap drop rate, a creeper dropped through a hole in the gloomy roof. I was barely able to jump away taking 6 hearts of health when he exploded. I was happy to be alive when a skelly dropped through the same hold and shot me on the way down. Down to 1....

[Spoilers] Silverfish question

Apparently I have completely missed the bus on Silverfish. I have a 4 level Obsidian beacon in the End. I have built a nice tasty stone brick house with a stack of stone bricks. I then moved about 50 blocks away to my wooden Enderman farm, left myself logged in, and ate lunch. 20 minutes later I com...

Re: Compact reloading wheat farm?

To compact the design, 'tier' your wheat modules so that the seed output of one module supplies the seeds for the next module. This can be done without the use of elevators. If you 'pull' the planter to harvest the wheat place a hopper with a filter directly below it. Seeds go through, wheat gets p...

Re: To Troubled To sleep.

Steve if troubled because he wants to get back home and he is trying to find a way to collect enough power to do it.
All he has to work with are the pathetically weak souls around him and he is wracking his brain for a way to condense and control enough power to break through to his home dimension.

If you just put clay balls in the BD it will take 4 and make a block automatically when you give it power.

So much for lighting fix.
Nathan Adams ‏@Dinnerbone
I think I'm going to revert the new lighting stuff and come back to it for 1.5. I'd rather get other (actually working) bugfixes in 1.4.
