AWKWARD ZOMBIE

Hm. Actually, the physics for power is... really mixed up. Pressure plates and switches can activate wires beneath them if there's one block in the way (which there always is, because the pressure plate/switch needs to rest on something) but not torches, and power torches can activate wires horizontal from them if there's one block in the way, power torches turn OFF if there's a wire or power torch one block DIAGONALLY DOWN (as in, one across, and one down) or two blocks down with one block in the way (but only if its a power torch) from them making it possible to make Inverter gates.

It is RIDICULOUSLY confusing!


Edit: Oh, and power torches can send power above it if there's a block in the way, so you can use that to switch rail tracks.

But only 8 times.

After that, the air block becomes bodaciously unusable for the same trick. Once a torch in that block is turned off, it won't turn on, no matter what.

Edit again: Okay nevermind that was just a bug in my session, for some reason. Disregard that.









Edit again again:
Here's an example pic I made of how underground circuitry works:

The position of the torch is important, btw. It won't work if its just resting on the block below.
Don't forget it works for T-junctions too.


Yeah, I am really interested in all this circuitry stuff now!

I've had

some adventuresssssssssssssssssss



If you want to see more, then I can.

So I'm FINALLY finished! My utterly massive project to build a rail going to a different continent! 1,118 rail pieces were used in this map!
Download Link (10MB)
It's TOTALLY worth downloading, just for the view!


Well actually there's two rails. There's the big flat one going to the other continent and back (the reason the return part is so steep is because that's the minimum steepness necessary for the cart to travel on its own) and there's the smaller, more winding one going from my spawn to my skybase.



I've also moved ALL of my stored resources from all of my maps into a new winter-world (see: friday's update) and have started building a town, so that I can export the entire town to a new map every time he introduces another major only-available-with-a-new-world feature.

Moved any picked-up items from one world to another. Using INVedit.

And I use MCedit to copy-paste the town into a new world and NBTedit to change the spawn point.

So I'm taking my floating island and turning it into a creepy forest temple, I also wanted to make a sort of sacrifcial altar on the cliff near the entrace, but I dunno about letting lava flow eagerly into the poor valley below.

Looks like multiplayer is up next on the schedule finally. Can't wait.

OH GOD WHAT HAVE I DONE





it's all better now


Also these are Zelda Textures, if you want 'em, here you go.

They interlock and go up to this spider-web of walkways that connect three peaks. I had a picture but it was lost to the ether

EVERYTHING YOU EVER MADE IS SHIT NOW

BE BETTER

That underground cave system and the tall mountain were the best parts.

>decide to sail around the coast looking for a cave system
>see a little hole, whatever
>get up there
>what the shit wow it looks like a man made quarry up here
>water blocking a huge tunnel, redirect it
>this is cool, really smooth edges
>reach end of tunnel, decently sized hole going into the fucking center of the world
>mine stairs spinning around it for about ten minutes and reach the floor
>what's next
>wander around this godly huge set of mines thinking to myself, "The dwarves really had gotten too greedy"
>start gathering a bunch of iron and some gold, turn a corner, a perfectly carved tunnel leads into the dark
>creepy man, alright I'll follow it
>huge system of lava and obsidian
>I love this game

HEY GUYS

SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS.

fucking Notch stop updating you jerk I can't keep up with this shit.

I've caved and as soon as I return from camping here, I'm gonna buy the game

Slimes don't respect difficulty levels oh god no
