Author Topic: Minecraft Megathread; yeah its update 1.12 big whoop what about it  (Read 6943795 times)

why does no one listen to my idea about an underwater sandcastle?

That was my idea at first, but I found an island, where I got most of that sand from, and I wanted to use it. Hell maybe I'll do that anyways...

How the forget do you get sand to stay on the sealing without any other brick that doesn't use gravity

Torches.

When water hits a torch, the torch breaks. Torches can hold up sand. So when the torch is hit, the Sand instantly falls

Dynamic water and Buckets
Infdev’s been updated.

* Leaves not near a tree trunk will now go away
* Added a new option for graphics quality
* Added buckets (Right click water to pick it up)
* Added dynamic water
* Days are longer, nights are shorter

I tried doing the original plan for water, but it ended up being far too unpredictable, causing weird vortexes (vortices?) of spinning water that would act as infinite water sources, effectively flooding the world. The new system is much more predictable, if a bit silly.

Water will spreads towards the nearest drop up to a four block radius. If several directions have the same distance to the nearest drop, it spreads to all those directions. When water spreads, it’s always one size lower than the current size (similar to how lighting works).
Water that falls down a cliff gets full power again, so to make a long stream, you’ll need to make sure the channel slopes down at a 1/4 block slope.

The ocean is made up of full size water blocks that never drop in size. It’s possible to pick up one of those blocks with a bucket, then place it elsewhere. This effectively makes a spring block.

Any water block next to two or more spring blocks turns into a spring block.

Water will not spread out on top of existing water, but it won’t drop down if you dig below it. So if you want to make a river several blocks deep, first make one one block deep, then dig below each water block.

There’s also current, so any running water block will push all entities inside it in the direction it’s flowing.. Kind of.

I will work on the graphics, making it slightly less blocky.

Hao to make buckit?
