I like the ability to switch between creative and survival modes...

So... A Villager theif? Or is it the curse of the missing chunks? Perhaps they simply... Fell through the world.

Not in my case at least. I managed to round up to from the surrounding buildings, and another who I'd trapped under the ground for safe keeping. =/

Villagers just wander off as usual it seems. That's why you need to cage a couple separate from the rest for when the village needs to regenerate.

villages should be fenced in when spawned so they can't escape

^^ My village has at least a three high wall around it and hasn't got anywhere that can spawn mobs. (as far as I can tell) I can't see how any of them could have wandered away. I don't know how zombie assaults work, in the off chance that one happened, but I don't think that one could have killed ten villagers in a night. =/

BEHOLD! My glorious first creation in the new update.

It may just be me being late to the party but has anybody else seen the "snooper" settings within the options??

I'v only just noticed them.

They allow you to control what information Mojang gets from your computer. Its just stuff on your hardware settings etc, in case your worrying. People have known about what Mojang records from your computer for ages, this is just if you want to opt out of it, but its perfectly harmless. =P

Now breed you vilagers. Breed!

*Wait...aren't they all guys. ^^ Thumbs up for their gay rights.

Do you have torches on the roofs?

Zombies used to sometimes spawn on mine and go on little zombie rampages.

=/ There's torches everywhere. I noticed one zombie spawning in a corner and hopping over a wall, but one spawning doesn't equate to about ten villagers getting eaten. Bit of a mystery really.

Iv got nothing against companies "recording" my pc specs, just a bit more notice would have been better. Then again what company has came forward about that sort of thing publicly?? None that im aware of.

^^ Mojang announced all their changes a good while ago concerning this update, the bit about allowing us to choose what data is recorded by them included. Its not like GW forces us to give them information to visit their sites or anything. =P

They actually did this very publicly, he let people decide whether they should do this back in January:

Click "Show results" to see most people voted yes. And now you can turn it on/off from within the game.

Also, because the data they take is then made public, someone even made a nice table out of it:

Just a question; who thinks you should be able to put written books on bookshelves. The shelves could take on a different texture.

Or simply make bookshelves a right-click-able storage block exclusively for books.

That's exactly what I had in mind.

Any of you guys noticing alot of sound lag when you are playing? I am getting a lot even when my connection is good. =/ I'm not the only one either, Epicsurvivor1 is getting the sound lag too.

Wait, there's still people running NT?

It's been reported as a bug http://www.minecraftwiki.net/index.php?title=Known_bugs%2FVersion_1.3.1#Sounds.
I'm hoping they're working on a 1.3.2, but there's been no mentions of anything from them yet and Dinnerbone keeps posting pictures of baby zombies instead. :-( It's mooshrooms all over again (adding novelty features instead of bug fixes). /rant over

I haven't noticed it, but then I've been messing around with "minigames" with LAN multiplayer. They don't seem worth hosting a server for, but are fun and pretty quick to reset with this new feature.




This one seems to be kind of complex to build. Cannons have an ammo counter, adjustable range and reload automatically. The only issue is they will missfire if you spam them so you have to wait for it to at least fire the shot before pressing the button again. If you press the buttons on one cannon too quickly it will detonate the ammo for both and the tnt that drops out the platform if you lose.

It does start off slow though.

Well, half slabs suffocate you now, as I found out from going on my nether rail...

Are you sure it was the half slabs? People are reporting "phantom damage" when riding rails in general. But it could be halfslabs they've put to prevent ZPM I suppose.

Well, it could be either or, but I took damage as soon as i set off in my minecart into the halfslabs.

In other news, my enderman xp farm goes from level 0-30 in about a minute and a half. Now that's fast enchanting.

Oh and earlier I was crushed by my own Iron Golem by opening the door it was standing in front of. Best security force.

That's why you right click doors.

Not if youre holding obsidian xD

I did right click it. It was also my own golem so it wouldn't have mattered.

They attack anyone if you hit them.
I know from experience. I ran 73 blocks to escape.

They do not draw agro to you if you created them; I've accidentally hit a few before. They also don't kill with one hit with no knockback.
