Re: New Release! (BTW 4.65) [*** NO SPOILERS ***]

-Changed the bucket recipe to use 7 iron nuggets in a 'U' pattern, instead of 3 iron ingots, to better balance it for the recent changes to iron. Doesn't this conflict with the vanilla cauldron (btw renamed it to: cistern) recipe? No, because the cistern uses ingots, not nuggets in the recipe. By t...

Re: XP Orb Teleportation

Try recreating the spiral, but replace the glass with an opaque block, and see if that makes any difference. I've noticed things have a tendency to get stuck in glass blocks.

Re: Mojang April Fools Joke?

It was clear from the moment I first saw it that this was all a big joke, considering the date, but when I read the first line in the changelog, about super hostile mode, my first thought was that they were adding BTW to minecraft. The second line about locking difficulty reinforced this notion, as ...

Re: New Release! (BTW V4.64)

The dung block change happened in version 4.6. From the release notes: Changed Dung blocks so that they are part of aesthetic earth blocks, which allows them to behave in a manner more consistent with their material type. This necessitates a conversion for previously existing Dung blocks, which wil...

Re: New Release! (BTW V4.64)

I'm not sure if this is even significant or not, but I'll put it in spoilers just in case. I noticed that all the dung blocks I had were now labeled Old Dung, and could be converted to Block of Dung in the crafting table. I don't even know if this happened in this release or a previous one, but the ...

mushroom and dung in cauldron cook forever

Using the latest BTW 4.64, I've found a bug where if you have either type of mushroom in a cauldron with dung, the cooking meter will fill up as if it's cooking something, but then nothing happens, and the cooking meter starts going up again. This will continue to happen as long as there are both du...

-torch changes...Additionally, this increases the value of Nethercoal in the middle game. Curious, does this mean nethercoal still gives 4 torches, or is it more valuable because it essentially costs half the coal? I just checked, and nether coal gives only 1 torch as well, so it's the latter. But ...

Re: Problems With Account Migration

From everything I've heard, doing the account migration prevents you from being able to play Minecraft, and this has (I believe) been an issue since the migration started. And sadly, the only fix I know of is to buy another account. I wish you luck with this. Just to put it out there, I migrated my...

Also, for comparison, uncooked potatoes restore half a hunger, and cooked potatoes restore one. Otherwise, I'm quite enjoying the update so far! I'm actually making...

STRONGHOLD BREACHED! The path to the stronghold is off of a bridge I started, which is currently only a long path of cobblestone slabs hanging in midair.

I enjoy exploring the abandoned mineshafts. I use pistons a ...

Re: [Spoilers][Legit play only]Arcane scroll drops

Did I get extremely lucky, or is the drop rate of scrolls from bats really high? I killed four bats with my battle axe while caving, and the first three all dropped a scroll.

Anyway, it will be fun to think up a way to farm bats.

Well, I'm not exactly sure if I understand what you're saying, but if the lens beam is broken by something passing in front of the detector block, then the detector block won't turn off because it is now seeing what blocked the beam.

Re: lava + water = obsidian?

Only lava source blocks turn into obsidian when they come into contact with water. Flowing lava just turns to cobble. This is vanilla behavior, and I don't think BTW does anything to change it.
