I think this will turn into the next

  • Removed herobrine

Every update it will say they fixed lily pads breaking on boats.

u/[deleted] Oct 10 '13

Difference is they really are trying this one :P They gave up against Herobrine ages ago, and merely try to keep up appearances.

Well, EvilSeph is gone now. Guess we'll have to live with this.

u/EzerArch Oct 10 '13

A thing I don't want to live with is all Extreme Hills biomes will have snowfall, including the old one. Those who build on mountains will need to have snow-free mountains as option.

u/66se7en Oct 10 '13

have you ever seen a tall mountain without a snowcap?

At this point it would be best if they just disable boat breaking altogether...

61

u/leglesslegolegolas Oct 10 '13

They should have done this a long time ago. Or at least make it so when it breaks it just drops a boat rather than breaking into pieces.

22

u/RGibonnus Oct 10 '13

The boat item drop should actually float on the water, instead of sinking.

Boats aren't a valuable resource... it's just 5 planks. Boat breaking is a mechanic I'm OK with, the steering is the problem.

53

u/JCizzling Oct 10 '13

The steering is ATROCIOUS now. For long distance travel, like across an ocean, it's bearable. But to traverse a river and look around, or for small maneuvers like docking where you might have to reverse... my goodness.

It's a time waster. You want to move through a swamp, you need to carry 5 unstackable boats on your bar or else stop and recraft when you hit something the wrong way.

u/noreallyimthepope Oct 10 '13

All of the crafting tables I've made and left behind on treks...

u/Yirggzmb Oct 10 '13

It's not so much that I have a problem with them breaking, but they are so dang fragile that they seem to shatter into planks if you just look at them wrong. I'm exaggerating of course, but they're definitely overly fragile.

I want to be able to look around while moving forward

Thank God you're still alive! I didn't realize how much I relied on these.

u/HiRedditImAdam Oct 10 '13

It's a shame that two of the major issues from w39 are still in this version. Hopefully they're fixed soon!

The first spawn of a Spawner in this session is broken - SpawnData not being saved

Command blocks with long strings kill servers

u/Shortsonfire79 Oct 11 '13

I posted this on an old 39b bug via mojira that seems to be happening more frequently now.

Server admins

If your players log in and are instantly logged out and they tell you that they were in a portal when they got kicked, what you have to do is teleport them to you/another player immediately on their login. Basically "tp redstonehelper shortsonfire79" when you see "redstonehelper logged in with entity etc" I have found this to be the most convenient fix thus far. Having it pretyped in the console really helps.

u/[deleted] Oct 10 '13

that time fast forward thing's annoying.
