That'd look brilliant.

I will when the railway to brandywine is done.

**assultmarine**

**Melissia**

You have to run an up to date world mapper program on the server side.

Good bye all that iron, diamonds, tools, gold, massive cave, and all my apple stacks

Does anyone else have a problem logging in right now?

Happens from time to time. It's usually because the network is too slow. When it happens, I usually wait 20 minutes and then try again.

The game just crashed and I lost 5 diamonds from a pickaxe and a sword. They are not in my inventory or anything… can I get those back from an admin?

normally if it's important an admin can summon what you lost in-game.

**legoburner**

I'm about to travel so wont be able to update the server to 1.6 for 2 days if it comes out today or tomorrow. No time to get on and replace lost items at the moment, you'll have to try and catch yakface when he is on.

Noooooo!

Why, god, why?!

Dear god:
may lego's transport be swift, and his business thingy be well, and may he return in time for 1.6.
Amen.

**BoyMac**

Hey shrike, may I ask what made you want to build a tunnel from my house to your summer house?

.

I have tons of torches so you can collect the ones that you left in the chest if you want them.

Key points:
No aether for 1.6
SMP nether is in
boat elavators and minecart boosters no longer work
power rails now are faster
seeds are only found by harvesting long grass

**Deathklaat**

i hope they add the ability to make elevators, all you would need is a system like the powered rails and a pressure plate to stand on and have it go up or down maybe with a switch.

Raaaaaaah! I had just finished my big elevator for my mine in my singleplayer world!

And no aether for 1.6??? Damn you Notch!

I have to drop all my mods and all I get in return are faster power rails?

I thought they should fix/add these, especially hatches. I wanted them so much.
Now we just need thieving goblins.

**Melissia**

Hatches will be suitably useful to be sure.

maybe a vertical railway?
for now, just either have a ladder, or a spiral railway.

But then, I won't be able to play on the multi server when lego updates it. Not much better.

Your reply go mixed in with mine btw, managed to find it though haha.

Indeed that is true, however the server has somewhat stagnated for me, its either that or minecraft as a whole is becomin boring for me.

However its that time of year for me where I should go into hibernation until August/September.

**Ifalna**

Another stack and a bit of gunpowder in my mob loot chest if anyone wants it, kudos to whoever has been taking some items but refilling it with the rest that was in the collection tray

Thats exactly how it should work.

**haloreach4ever**

too late, I ninja'd it

it's at the tower- follow the railway going towards mondo's, there should be a turning left. Follow it.

**Melissia**

I hoep he eventually adds in guns. Could be great to see a musket from wood and iron, and then some musket balls from gunpowder and iron (sixteen from each pair of gunpowder/iron used)..

you say these names but I have no idea what they mean

I'm not particaularly good at working out where I am, so co-ordinates would probably be easier

Do want. And you could make special ammo, or something, from different ores/minerals

**ShivanAngel**

Diamond, redstone dust gold and iron to make a LAZER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

shrike wrote:

Yep, theres a sign along the railway pointing out the turn to take

Its automated so just put a cart on and jump in. Feel free to check the chest whenever you like, I fill it very often and everything in it is free for taking. Just make sure to add any of the items in the water shoot into it if you don't want them so they aren't wasted.
