Perhaps a better mod, then, would be one that respawns you close to where you died?

The point is that even with the chest, you'll never find your items again if you were completely lost (unless you managed to find the chest later). Without it, you could know exactly where you died, and show up at the spot only three seconds after your items auto-disappear, like what happened to me.



Especially on a server, where lag could unfairly kill you and glitched chunks could vanish all your items, it makes it seem more fair. Besides, if you fall in lava or get buried alive, it's not like you'll be able to get it back without some serious effort.

Oh, the chest shows up where you died? I am alright with that, then. Thought you meant that your stuff got auto-transported to empty spaces in a chest...

Yeah, that I wouldn't mind. As long as I can get my crap back, I'm totally cook with it.

And now that I'm getting close to filling my art supply store, methinks I'm going to build a stadium soon! But the problem is where. Hmm...

the problem is that they're hosting a custom server, so a lot of features are missing.

Water doesn't flow.
Blocks can be mined by hand.
No reeds, pumpkins, or cacti.
Tilling grass never produces seeds. But since the hoe doesn't lose durability, I'll look past this one.
No buckets. At all. Putting the three iron in the workbench causes the output sprite to flash for a second and then vanish.

Those look awesome  

also I dunno if you've seen this but they recently
published the new Save File Format for Beta 1.3

they totally need to get that stuff implemented

what I really want to do is screw around with creative mode stuff,
so I guess it's still kinda usable

It looks like you have a dent in the water around the lower-left. Then it looks like some leaves on the left don't have a trunk to live on. And are those cut-off trees I see on high? Otherwise seems something okay, what with the crevices inside of cliffs and all.

http://dirbaio.net/d/caves.png
And is this on the same map, or something like? If not (as in, it is its own map) then it's basically only a novelty as far as I'm concerned. If it is indeed from the same map then, I do not object to the idea of it at all and (if it is possible) wouldn't mind seeing something like that on the server (under the condition that bugs are fixed such as the water dents).

Looks pretty cool.

I'd love to see something that can generate large ocean maps, with random islands here and there - like the Great Sea in Windwaker. Not an ocean on a normal map, a map that's just a bigass ocean.

I know standard MInecraft generation takes over when you hit the edges, but if it can be generated large enough through another program, that problem can be... minimized, anyway.

One of my friends showed me a vid of the next release having automatic repeaters. So happy I can kill off a lot of my old ones that were simply for distance increase.

Any other news for what's supposed to be in the next release?

I remember Notch saying something about new underwater content too, whatever that is.

* better chunk loading (via McRegion)
* that one repeater logic block

* mayyyybe official betterlight support

I'm getting one of my friends a Minecraft gift code, and another one of my friends made me this gift box for me to put the code in! It's so cool.



We got a bunch of people to sign the inside lid too.

True

Notch doesn't like it, but everyone else at mojang does.

Personally, I like it, just not with the default skin

I hope you can toggle it though... >.>

I tried betterlight previously. I saw no difference other than I saw less black block glitches.
