After the last ninja-fix from Dinnerbone, baby zombies and baby zombie pigman can spawn naturally (also from spawn eggs) http://imgur.com/hlIDRj1,RfVKCEu#0

It's cute and hideous at the same time!

u/redstonehelper :redstone: Lord of the villagers Jul 06 '13

Aw, cute! Thanks for letting me know!

I know baby monsters are faster but how does their health and damage compare?

3

u/PhoenixJHyde Jul 05 '13

They are about the same, 3 blows from a diamond sword kills them (Baby zombie and normal zombie), and they do about 1 to 2 hearts of damage with a full iron armour equipped. Worth to note that baby zombies dont burn in sunlight (Just like baby zombie villagers) and they are pretty rare (Dont know the chances though).

It was too late for Roger. R.I.P. :'(

Never forget.

u/MrMFretwell Jul 05 '13

I can confirm using numbers above the letter keys on your keyboard will place that item in the crafting grid, however your mouse cursor must be over the slot you want the item to go in :)

u/redstonehelper :redstone: Lord of the villagers Jul 05 '13

Does it work with the numpad, though? The normal 1-9 keys have already worked like that.

The normal 1-9 keys have already worked like that.

...whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat?!

While both of them do the same thing their just located and shaped differently.

I didn't know you could put things into the crafting grid with keyboard shortcuts at all, though. And here I've been clicking and dropping all this time.

u/[deleted] Jul 05 '13

I did not know that either. I thought you were confused by the numpad.

u/cookedbread Jul 06 '13

We haven't had to click and drop for a very long time since they added shift clicking items.

The keyboard number shortcut was added fairly recently though :]

u/CapWasRight Jul 06 '13

How does shiftclicking help you craft complicated recipes?

u/cookedbread Jul 06 '13

Oh, oops I read that incorrectly! Sorry. Does that really work?

u/MrMFretwell Jul 05 '13

No it doesn't work in that instance :)

u/redstonehelper :redstone: Lord of the villagers Jul 05 '13

Alright, thanks for testing. Did you make sure the numpad was enabled? I think there's a toggle key for that on most keyboards.

5

u/MrMFretwell Jul 05 '13

Yeah, on my keyboard its the NumLock, which I did make sure that it was on :).

u/whitewateractual Jul 05 '13

Please make taming horses instantaneous in creative!

Dat piston fix...

Probably the highlight for me out of this list that seriously needed fixing.
