Quote from: Jeb
Changed Ender Chests to be per player, but also made you lose the Eye of Ender if you knock the chest down (so no free carrying around)

So end chests are actually useful outside of small friendly servers now.

...and are now suck for what I want them for :(


Sigh, time to start farming priests.
Put an enchantment table w/books in ender chest in base-> explore w/ companion ender chest in inventory-> use ender chest to both dump to base and enchant silk touch on pickaxes to move.

I have no idea if this actually works (do enchantments stay around on tools post repair?), but it seems like a good attempt at a solution. I can't get snapshots to work on my main PC, so somebody should test this out.

Given the cost/difficulty/improbability of getting silk touch, it's not worth the trouble; especially because I'd only waste that sort of exp on a steel pick or better. Much easier to just buy a stack of eyes of ender from the priests and repair whenever you need to move, or if you luck out and get a priest who can enchant ST, carry around an el cheapo wooden pick so you can move it at will.

Either way, priests.

I am trying and TRYING to figure out a good shape for a Vertical Windmill that I want to build. I am trying to remember the game/anime/visual image of what I am after. But regardless I just can not get the bellowing effect of the cloth to look right for the way the wind makes it twist around the middle axle....

If anyone is understanding what I am trying to achieve, any hints, clues or heck, HELP in making it would be greatly appreciated...

Review from "thebestgamers" (rate MW3 10/10, rate terraria bad because it slightly looks like minecraft.) posted on community forum.

People agree.
WTF?

Okay, minecraft is not the bomb it used to be.
But its not a terrible game

Again, WHAT HAS THIS GAME LOST THAT HAS MADE IT A WORSE GAME?

I think all these people saying minecraft was better in the "old days" have severe nostalgia.
Seriously, try playing the version you first started playing again.
Then look me in the face and tell me it's better.
Minecraft isn't as good to you because it's become mundane.
Time makes unique things mundane.

What's a vertical windmill? Windmill where the blades are at the top pointing horizontally rather than on the side pointing vertically?

If so, I looked through http://tinyurl.com/cf3knbq (google images search) and couldn't find anything - you're probably on your own.

A vertical axis windmill is a windmill that uses the wind from any direction due to the fact that instead of the wind pushing blades around which transfers the power to a gearbox before going down to the turbine at the base of the Mill its Blades are pushed by the wind directly onto the Turbine. A simple example is the Persian Windmill - http://tinyurl.com/6rhtxeh

There are some Anime/Game/stuff which have different styles of looks some use the twisting style and others use basic form, there is also the Mill from AoE2 for the Persians and such...

So, latest snapshot;

Quote
Added an "Open to LAN" menu in the in-game menu, which allows players to open their world to other players. In the menu, the player can choose to turn cheats on or off, and choose the game mode.
    *The multiplayer menu now scans for LAN servers (singleplayer worlds which are on the same LAN and have been published with the /publish command).
    *Villagers may remove a trade option after it has been used at least 3 times.
    *Added wooden stairs for the remaining three wood types (spruce, birch and jungle).
    *Redstone (including repeaters, torches, levers, and pressure plates) and Rails can now be placed on slabs and stairs positioned upside down.
    *Removed the downwards knockback while drowning.
    *Pigs now drop 1-3 Porkchops instead of 0-2.
    *Potentially improved memory usage.[2]
    *“A lot of smaller changes and fixes”.
    *The /tp command now also allows teleporting to specified coordinates. The syntax for this is /tp [target player] <x> <y> <z>.

Bolded for sexy :D
