Well, I do have a fairly creepy mine. Which reminds me, should explore that cave further.

You should watch , THEN go explore the cave.

[Arclight]

That was properly freaky. Do you one better: could watch it WHILE exploring that cave.

But just ignore the wimpering when I do, I'll be fine in a day or two.

Here’s a screenshot of a fully zooomed in map (good for town maps, for example):

And here’s a screenshot of a fully zoomed out map:

Would be more useful if it let you map caves as well. But I think it has potential.

I dunno, I think the maps will be fairly useless myself. You have to hold the map in your hands for it to map out, and each map is unique unless cloned. The detail level is meh, and there are better 3rd party mapping programs already.

As for cave mapping, I wish, but that would be difficult to do in game as a physical object, trying to have a 3d map. You could have a layered map but even then it wouldn't work very well.

Unless the server disables 3rd party mapping.

Then it's the only way to find your path to distant and secret locations.

Though it'd be far better if you could mark things in it, like a dotted line and an X marking the spot... I'd love crafting fake pirate treasure maps that lead to horrible traps myself.

Oh right, forgot to mention yesterday. For whoever uses texture packs, a user by the name of Kahr has made his own version of Xau's HD patcher. The difference to Xau's original patcher is that, you only have to patch the game once, after that you can just install texture packs to the texture pack folder and no matter the size, they'll all work by just enabling them from the in-game menu, just like you'd be using only 16x packs.

"That's a very nice texture pack you have there..."

Yeah, we need a slower pulsar. I don't think the redstone delayers are going to work because they don't slow down the speed of the pulse, just how long it takes to get to its target which is not really want we want, we want to widen the gap between pulses. So, perhaps we need to shove the repeaters between the gaps in a clock of some sort, perhaps a 9 clock or something.

I'll smash some stuff up and experiment.

For science.

You don't need a pulser, as soon as you finish the loop, the repeaters will work as a pulser. Essentially repeaters function as a clock if in a loop, the more repeaters in this loop, the longer it takes for the clock to "tick".



Edit: After having a creeper chase me into the brothel and blow a hole through two floors, I vote we upgrade the lighting system.
