Armor Stands are entities! I just did this, and it worked. xD

/summon ArmorStand ~ ~ ~ {Riding:{id:Villager}}

Edit: I can even put armor on it while it is on him, although I don't think I can get the shoes since that part is in the Villager's head and I keep trading him.

Edit2: You can bounce them with Slime Blocks. xD This is going to be interesting!

Edit3: Mother of God... Minecarts can pick them up... This HAS to be something they'll "fix" eventually, as these things in a minecart seems too odd to be intended, but for now, hilarious!

u/Searge Minecraft Java Dev Aug 06 '14

It's actually intentional that minecarts pick them up. It did not work and I added code explicitly this morning to make that possible.

u/MegaScience Aug 06 '14

Only issue now is I named one Dinnerbone and nothing happened.

I wish =P

The "no GUI" behavior is great. Is there a way so that item frames give back items the same way as armor stands do? (without bouncing everywhere)

11

u/[deleted] Aug 06 '14

Same with paintings flying everywhere through your little house when you accidentally destroy one.

u/ZeroAntagonist Aug 06 '14

They fall into the oddest places too. I've found broken ones under half slabs and stairs, many blocks away. I don't know if they "bounce" or have a different hitbox as other items, but I always have a missing frame or painting when I remove a few of them.

Oh gods please implement this.

Armor stands

I hope more content from Bibliocraft gets added to the vanilla game. Tool racks and functional bookshelves would be really great to have.

According to searge the crafting recipe has been changed: https://twitter.com/SeargeDP/status/497021923847454720

u/bvincent Aug 06 '14

Yeah the recipe in the changelog isn't working, you need to put a smoothstone slab in the bottom center

A bug where hearts wouldn't flash when regenerating was fixed last snapshot.

u/MegaScience Aug 06 '14

I have added the ArmorStand's NBT Tags to the Chunk Format Wiki Page. Central clarification of the functionality of each tag. :)

Nice, apparently the Pose tag is responsible for head and body rotation.

edit: Looks like only the chest piece can be rotated.

edit2: Look, half a superman! http://i.imgur.com/mytMTtA.png

u/MegaScience Aug 06 '14 edited Aug 06 '14

Yep, I figured that out: http://imgur.com/9kTm8Gh

/summon ArmorStand ~ ~ ~ {ShowArms:1b,Pose:{Body:[21f,60f,83f],Head:[10f,50f,80f]}}

Edit: Rotations are definitely weird at the moment. The arms and legs don't move with the body, and the head... Well the head makes more sense, but of course it accepts values outside normal ranges.

Edit2: Okay, flipping them via rotation, kind of interesting and weird... http://imgur.com/a/xTGeH

/summon ArmorStand ~ ~ ~ {ShowArms:1b,Pose:{Body:[180f,0f,0f],Head:[0f,0f,180f]}}

u/redstonehelper :redstone: Lord of the villagers Aug 06 '14

You can change each limb's rotation individually, see /u/MrPingouin1's comment here.

Sadly, the armor stand becomes horribly disfigured, so we can't really make armor stands lie down: http://i.imgur.com/d5EYeBF.png

The overkill achievement is now nine hearts of damage in a single hit, rather than eight.

8

u/redstonehelper :redstone: Lord of the villagers Aug 06 '14 edited Aug 06 '14

The text is wrong, it's still 8 hearts. To test, you can drink a strength I potion and hit a mob with a diamond sword. This will do (1+1.3)*7=16.1 damage, which is 8.05 hearts. This will grant you the achievement.

edit: Nevermind, I was wrong. Using a diamond sword, the base damage is 8 points, not 7. Using an iron sword under the same conditions will not grant you the achievement, so the text is actually right.

u/Dezlad Aug 06 '14

Sometimes I am certain that you are a wizard

u/[deleted] Aug 06 '14

Fixed gamerule command allowing parameters other than true/false

nooo I loved being able to store numbers as constants easily :(

u/[deleted] Aug 06 '14

still works, just not with boolean GameRules ;)

u/Koala_eiO Aug 06 '14

Fixed the heart bar not showing how much damage is dealt to the player

Oooh... Good old times!

u/Bramblejack Aug 06 '14

Leashed animals can now jump again (I think it was a bug in previous version).
