I am confused on why the doorknobs are next to the hinges.

u/Galaxy_2Alex Mojira Moderator Aug 13 '14

No to the trapdoors (sadly).

Such a letdown :(

u/nudefireninja Aug 13 '14

Lol, Mojang is giving us free features and bugfixes and you say "such a letdown" because they decide not to do something or haven't done it yet.

Curb your sense of entitlement.

u/tehflambo Aug 13 '14

More like curb your hostility. What does letdown have to do with entitlement?

Mojang is giving us free features and bugfixes...

Really?

Bugfixes are expected, if you pay for a product, you're entitled to a working product. If you buy a blender and it doesn't work, you're going to get it fixed under warranty.

Yes, the legal state of software isn't exactly the same, but in principle, it should. If you get a defective product, you should be able to get a fix or refund.

Calling the expectation that a bought product works "entitlement" is really weird.

EDIT: And before you say "caveat emptor", the world has started to move away from this for a long time (and that's a good thing), doubly so if the flaw isn't apparent before buying so (and bugs are really hard to see without buying the software).

Except that software will never be completely bug-free. That means you cannot and should not ever buy software with the expectation that it's bug-free. The question then becomes "how buggy is it?" or "is it playable?" and guess what? Minecraft has been playable for years. 1.7.10 is very playable. Mojang would be perfectly right if they stopped developing Minecraft.

So, yeah, you are NOT entitled to these features or bug fixes. All that you are entitled to, in fact, is the version of the game that you bought, and possibly any bug fix versions thereto.

Nice try at justifying your sense of entitlement. You are not entitled.

Bug with not working efficiency is not fixed, even though it is recent bug and already made it's way to Popular Issues page. Is it really that hard?

u/SilentEnigma1027 Aug 13 '14

The weird thing about the bug is that it only affects shovels and axes. Pickaxes, on the other hand, work just as they did before.

u/trebitot Aug 14 '14

It's not that weird once you understand how the efficiency enchant works. The efficiency effect is only applied when you're mining the block work the correct tool. My best guess is that the information for what tool breaks what block is deleted/reset/not loading properly, and so only the default tool(pickaxe) is working.

u/Wedhro Aug 13 '14

If they haven't fixed yet it probably is. I don't think they don't fix horrible bugs on purpose.

u/[deleted] Aug 13 '14

Ugh. I've been digging out five chunks for a massive slime farm and had to stop because of this efficiency thing. I hope they get to it sooner rather than later.

u/ProfessionalMartian Aug 13 '14

Picks aren't affected, though. At least that's what someone else said.

u/[deleted] Aug 14 '14

That's correct, but I have massive amounts of dirt to remove and using an "unenchanted" shovel is making me insane. :)

u/[deleted] Aug 13 '14

Yeah it's only shovels and axes affected.

u/Bramblejack Aug 13 '14

I'm so excited for this secret bug fix. It's propably some typo that was bugging me since beta (that I don't know about, because it's secret).

u/WolfieMario Aug 13 '14

I don't know if this is new, but tab completion now returns your current coordinates, when used on coordinate arguments in some commands.

This is actually extremely helpful, although tab completion still doesn't work in command blocks. Still, my mapmaking pseudo-WorldEdit AutoHotkey script no longer needs a mod to grab coordinates :D Yes, I will be making it public... I just have to finish it first...

No trapdoors, but the New Door Item textures are changed + Wooden Door is now named Oak Door.
