That's why you get such a great gift.

No, I'm using MeliTek (TM)(R)(C)(Ptt)(LLC) Apathy-Based Insult Generator for Lazy Insolent Endermen.

Filed the patent papers last week.

I'm not sure what, but something is telling me that this is just a big lie...

It's based off of your face.

Wanna base something on my face?

Yes.

Meanwhile, I based this on Corpses' face.

Corpses wants it to ink on his face.

Emeralds can be obtained by throwing useless junk at Villagers. If you really want to mine some, spawn new chunks somewhere far.

As for Jungle Temples, they bring nothing truly new to the game aside from a legitimate way to obtain circlestones.

The 1.0 release of Minecraft pretty much promised the biome mapping would remain almost completely unchanged and thus the chunk misalignment wouldn't happen. Since then, Jungles were introduced and there haven't been any chunk misalignment issues.

1.3 comes out later today.

However, I will probably wait to see if any major bugs pop up before upgrading the Dakka server. (There's a particularly bad one about chunks not loading currently listed here which hasn't been fixed for the last few snapshots)

I'll try to test it too of course (it could be the bug above only occurs to people running a server from a netbook or something stupid like that).

Best case scenario will be a Dakka server upgrade to 1.3 this evening BST (10 hours from this post), worst case, this weekend...

Darn it, i wish i had creative...

You do, in single player. It's only a bit of hard work.

Creative makes the game waaaay too easy.

I know.
I'm trying to make an upside down structure, and it's really hard. I'm having to use dirt as scaffolding! But, it is good fun.

Hey, Dark. Speaking of Chunk Loading Errors- I was on the server just last night trying to get to the Dwarven City (through the Nether) and it seemed like only the Chunk I was in was actually loading- sheer droppoffs and nothing else around, just Netherfog. And the last time I logged on, nothing loaded and I fell in Lava. I logged out before I died, but I was wondering if you could TP or check my location, get me to somewhere safe, so I don't loose all my stuff?

I've sent you back in time by 5 minutes. Use it wisely

Be sure to kill the original you if you find him to avoid a paradox. Or does that just make it worse...

You need to make sure that you don't see yourself but if you do, kill him and take his stuff, then you hae two of whatever you had.

He doesn't need to kill himself, his future self is going to fall into lava on his own.

He should record it and post it on Youtube.

So, I've tested the 1.3.1 server and the bug that portals will happily deposit you into the void is still there.

However, it only seems to affect the portal at 0,0 (although I have not tested *every* portal) and affects the 0,0 portal every time you go through it. I've tried breaking and recreating the portal and it still occurs.

So I'm putting it up for your opinions. Should we update to 1.3.1, deactivate the 0,0 portal (and worry that any portal is a potential death trap), or should we continue with 1.2.5 for now and wait to see if they release a 1.3.2?

Discussed it with those online on the server and the server is now running 1.3.1

'Any portal is a potential deathtrap'
This will be so much fun!

If this portal-deathtrap is really as game-breakingly prevalent as you say it is, I'm afraid of it being implemented.

How common is it?

Can we just fix it by throwing chunks of stone underneath/above portals?

Perahps we can move the 0,0 portal to one of the empty plots in Suburbia?

Do you think it may be an issue with portals that are linked to multiple portal exits?

I recall that there are many overworld-side portals that ultimately mean to end up in the 0,0 nether-side portal.

Some portals that have been carefully mathsed-out may not be having this issue.

We can always keep the 0 0 portal open on both ends, but barricade it up with bedrock.

I have barricaded the 0,0 portal with bedrock while keeping it active (wierd crashes occured when de-activating it).

JamesGurney's portal is also within range of the glitchiness around 0,0 and so I've barricaded that one too.

Others don't seem to be glitching (the 0,0 one does it every time), but Wyrmalla found one that does it "sometimes" out at -1400 2000.

As a base rule, don't take anything valuable into a portal that you haven't tested since 1.3.1

Use Enderchests for transporting items if you can.

There is no way to escape the portals when they decide to kill you (I even died in creative mode from falling into the void - flying didn't work).

It sounds grim, but the other bug fixes and new features far outweigh a few unusable portals. Most portals seem stable.

Please PM me if you see anything else strange

Excellent.

I really hope the animals-glitching-through-fences/walls was fixed. I think I'll trap a few chickens to test it out.

I got my first silk touch ever from a purple suit villager, it costed a diamond pick and two emeralds.

Don't know if this is a bug or not with the latest update. I just went to my village and well...it seems some sort of exodus has taken place. I have two villages left out of the two dozen I had an hour ago. No mobs can spawn in the area, and there's a wall, plus I don't think the cell was even loaded. Anyone know what could have caused this? (my last two are hidden away in a bunker in case of thieves ^^). 0.o

I haven't had a whine post in a while.

I logged back in after a hiatus for some time, and it seems that there are several Creeper holes everywhere. That's to be expected and it seems that the damage in important places was repaired well enough.

However, someone inexplicably dug a small system of tunnels underneath the village that I "claimed". Oh, and all the villagers are missing. That makes me sad.

Finally, the "/kill" command no longer works as a suicide.

Oh, and they stole your favorite shiny red bicycle too.

I never liked bicycles. I used to have my villagers be my human-powered transport.

That's probably why they're all gone.

...

Really though, why are Villagers all gone?
