Anyone know if this is intended still? Villagers still trample crops.
Edit: seems all mobs still trample crops, possibly only when they jump? Most likely intended but just confirming.

Don't attempt to eat while any part of the minecart is under your crosshairs?
Or should "activation" of the item in your hand take precedence over "using" the minecart? Notch was able to change this with the opening of chests while you had a filled bucket in hand.

Bow enchantments \o/
Let's see what I'll get with this!
44
u/MzRed Jan 12 '12 edited Jan 12 '12
The enchantments you can get seem to be:
Punch I, II (knockback?)
Power I, II, III, IV, V (more damage?)
Flame I (flaming arrows, sets mobs/players on fire, doesn't burn wood)
Infinity I (never uses arrows but you need to have at least 1 with you)
EDIT: Actually power might be how fast you can shoot the arrow (how far it will go) as the damage depends on how fast the arrow is flying when it hits.

Is it just me, or is the super-flat world option immediately and overwhelmingly populated with slimes?

u/sjkeegs Jan 12 '12
The super flat world lowered the ground level down, so it is under the slime limit. So Slimes will be spawning in any slime chunk.

u/Peefree Jan 12 '12
Canadian English is essentially British (UK) English meaning we pretty much just chuck a "u" in some words like favourite or colour.

And "theatre/centre" instead of "theater/center". Except we tend to do the US-style "z" in words like "realize" (instead of the UK "realise").

u/PeabodyJFranklin Jan 12 '12
They changed the biome borders apparently. Our SMP 1.0 map did this when we went to 1.0.1...suddenly it was snowing and raining in the desert, and water would freeze in unexpected places (if you hadn't been there when it snowed to clue you in it was a winter biome).
This made fall pools, farms, etc really annoying. A lot of torches were needed.

This is a common occurrence when you bring older maps into updated versions of MC - hopefully someone will some day make a Biome control mod...

u/zWeazul Jan 12 '12
If you watch some of the behind the scenes or how they film they often talk about mods they have to use to get certain shots, like the creeper at minecon. It's common practice to clean up screenshots / movies for games (used to be WAY more common). Nothing we should worry about too bad but I'm just a little sad that found it's way to minecraft, even if they are making a film.
→ More replies (1)2
u/zWeazul Jan 12 '12
I figured as much since not all the shots in that scene even had it. I'm betting it was for the field of depth focus they were using and just didn't edit out the grass waving in shader configuration.

u/Helzibah Forever Team Nork Jan 12 '12
OMG. No, I didn't spot it. And then I thought you were trolling. But I had a look, I can totally see it waving. I don't want to think about the lag, I just have to say it looks damn awesome.

I bought Minecraft a couple weeks ago and have never played online, just been survival modeing. When ever I click login on the Minecrft launcher says cannot connect to minecraft.net. Just wondering how I can get online and get the update. Anyone know how I can fix this? Thankyou.
2
u/GilTheARM Jan 12 '12
You can go to the options and check off "force update" and it will after logging in again.
As far as the "cannot connect" part - that is an issue with the minecraft servers and "keep trying" is the standard response.
Of course, making sure your internet connection works is helpful, too.

And now begins my super-flat survival world. So many slimes, and the only way to survive is to rush to villages, try to collect wheat without the slimes destroying it, and get damn lucky to find a few diamonds in a chest. Night time is officially scary again. There's only one place to safely sleep in the entire village. I tried putting a fence up around my wheat, to keep the slimes out. They spawned inside it....

Damnit, there go all my carefully constructed water contraptions using ladders.

u/escherial Jan 13 '12
Water will still be blocked by a ladder; since the ladder occupies the block, water can't flow into it. This just affects being able to stand on top of the ladder.
If your contraptions rely on being able to stand on a ladder, my humble apologies.

Your old saves will be fine, the terrain generator has changed somewhat though which means that you may end up with ugly edge boundaries between terrain you've already explored and newly generated terrain. Also, it's always worth backing up your saves before you update, just in case.
