Re: The Deco Add-on. (updated 05/27/2018)

In the old deco zips there is a minecraft_server folder that is not in the newest version. Is it possible to set up a server with the files in this zip or do I need those server files?

Iron Axe Disappeared

I just experienced something very odd. I put my iron axe (with near full durability) and a single birch log in my crafting area, and did a shit-click. I got the planks sawdust and bark that I would expect, but the iron axe is gone. I have not been able to reproduce it. Has anyone else seen something...

Why hampers are a good change

I thought I was going to hate the new change to chests. I started a new world to see how the new changes felt and I realized that even though my base is near a swamp, by the time I had enough iron to make an iron axe, I hadn't made a single basket. I planted sugar with the plan to make baskets, but ...

Ladders on fire would not go out

I had some ladders catch fire in the Nether. I understand that this is kind of an inherent risk in using ladders in the Nether, but I hit them repeatedly and the fire would not go out. Is this intentional? It feels off, I expected to put them out the way I put out logs that are on fire, which usuall...

Hoping for a more sustainable food solution. I suppose if I spend the next week or so in game, I can create a decent chicken farm, but I'm sure I'll run out of seeds by then, and have to scour for another hoe/pick. Fishing has been pretty slow in the past, I can't imagine it's gotten better since t...

Re: Question on Piston Shovel Behavior [Possible Spoilers]

It took a while for me to come up with a way of using it that didn't require a lot of manual work. I'm just glad I can have packed earth in reasonable quantities now, I really missed using it. And I understand on the flint, at this stage my automation is optimized for packed earth so making the flin...

Question on Piston Shovel Behavior [Possible Spoilers]

So I have been playing with the Piston Shovel and I am loving it. I managed to get a somewhat set-and-forget automated setup. I did have some trouble with flint blocks though. The shovel pushed the flint instead of popping it up. I wondered if this was intended behavior, since it was a hard, heavy b...

Re: Question about regenerating vs respawning

I understand the sentiment, but what is the point of preserving the animal population if you are not going to go through respwans? I can see restarting very early on, I guess, but at some point you are going to be too far along. I think the best thing to do is to build up the infrastructure you need...

I am so glad for this!! For me this pack has been my default for so long that I just compare everything else to it. I love the small details that you (Mesh) have put in that are just missing in other, perfectly good, packs. I always come back to this one. And you haven't disappointed on the new item...

I have noticed something with the hardercore spawn change. I haven't died so many times that I am certain my impressions are accurate but it has been a fair few.
