Minecraft, awesome one man game project

is the server still being wiped on sunday?

[James]

No. Current plan is to keep this world alive as a creation world, and start a new-version server (assuming survival mode, damage, killable monsters, etc. comes in the update) on a new port number.

Hey just wanted to mention that I was demoing an area next to my building and a piece of TNT made it over to the tracks and blew a chunk out I'll take care of that

You didn't manage to take out the always-in-the-way minecart, did you?

Tower pics!

The view from the top -



You can see the tops of the water flows from there; they let me ride up the tower at incredible speed in a boat.

The view down the hole in the middle of the top -



Kind of boring except for the super depth.

Pool of water at the bottom of the hole -



For landing in at the end of the freefall so I don't kill myself once damage goes live.

Ultimately, the inner room will be much bigger, though I'll likely save that for the survival server.

I'm not really sure what type of block you're talking about. If it's clay, then that is actually pretty much the rarest block in the game, even more rare than diamonds. Though you mentioning furnaces makes me think it's something else.

::edit::
Oh, you can make smooth stone in a furnace. Awesome, had no idea. I figured that one part of the castle was just spawned by an admin or something.

If you use "the bakery" (about 15 furnaces side by side in the storage-house at the base area) it's not too bad. Just put a stack of cobblestone and 43 wood planks / 8 coal in each furnace, and let them all go at once. After it's about half done, you can pull out the first half of smoothstone from each furnace and go build, then by the time you get back, the second half will be ready.

Well, I've finished the staircases.

Anyone who has the urge to lay glass floors, feel free. The staircases show the floor levels, and I have a chest full of glass.

Oh good, something to do tonight.

I was logged in for probably at least a total of 2 hours last night (while I watched football + played Guild Wars, hooray for dual monitors) and never saw anyone come online.

Also, I know Adisharr said he broke the road near him (which I fixed just enough so that the road itself works), but farther up towards the William Wallace tower there is another hole, and the base of the WWMT is gone altogether, so you can't get up into it anymore.

Are you on a phone right now or something?

You could always hit up a public library.
