Re: Share your memorable deaths?
Seriously, hats off for Zombies Hatsies. I had seen that line of text in the updates a while back but didn't really register it (Does anyone remember Booties for Wolfsies? That was fake, though. Right? RIGHT?). Yikes. It's nightfall a few hours into spawn; I've got oven and chisel and have blocked m...

Re: (Potential Spoilers?) - Opinions On First Iron Tool
Observations: Update AABABABA pushed me over the edge with the reduced utility of the stone shovel, and it's extended my early game in a way I didn't anticipate. I've now gone from hoe->pick->shears->sword->axe->shovel in 4.9A to hoe->axe->shovel->shears->pick->sword by AABA The most recent change i...

[Mild spoiler] The debated GUI on an early item
I've been posting a lot, but this one is weighing on me. I gave the subforum rules another glance and I'm gonna get this out. There's clearly been back and forth discussion on the need to shift-click to light the clay oven, versus automatically disabling the GUI function if holding a firestarting ob...

I logged on just to ask if this was -reaaaally- working as intended. Lost at least 4 <items> to this tonight. Thanks a bunch.

Re: Breaking into sustainable food - chowder
You're right, it makes a lot of intuitive sense. The only reason I didn't notice right away was because I'm using birch wood and flint/steel, not netherrack yet. Thanks for the responses.

Breaking into sustainable food - chowder
Very easy question here. On our co-op world we're finally amassing some sustainable food, and I can't for the life of me get the chowder recipe to work. It always produces a cooked fish instead in the cauldron. I've tried various placement of items, and referred to the wiki... what might I be missin...

Re: Hardcore Spawn - Jungles
I find it weird that you guys talk about distinct spawns. From what I've experienced, HC Spawn is completely random every time and not bound to a certain number of spawns. That's because within your 10+ hardcore spawn locations you have a degree of randomness. I'd guess there's around a 50x50 to 10...

Re: Hardcore Spawn - Jungles
Surviving in Jungles is not impossible, especially if you reach the border with another non-desert biome. It's just absurdly difficult. I've sort of made it a person challenge of mine since a post a few weeks back... it's just a matter of how much you can build up each time you spawn before you run ...

Just started BTH for the first; it's quite pleasing that it still works with the most recent minecraft.

Re: Jungle Survival [possible spoilers]
Fair enough. I think I'm going to try a few jungle spawns on my own and see if I can do much better, given there was food available (mushrooms, presumably pigs and chickens, cocao). I simply havn't put much thought into starting in a jungle previously.
And I definitely called that being icy's base!
