i hope you know that minecraft is literally being made by only 3 people as of late that actually HAVE SOCIAL LIVES
No excuses, it's called balancing time and making plans you loving scrub.
stop complaining that your world with your giant golden richard on it is lagging and that you cant install your bondage mods
I see at least 3 places for optimization just by staring blindly at SSP. Instead of loading the chunks from a localhost (127.0.0.1) server, why not the hard drive? This would not only make invisible chunks disappear, it would also decrease loading time substantially for the host client, most especially since networking in Minecraft is horrid.
if you don't like how the game plays in 1.3.1, then dont play it
Yeah, I'd rather play a game I spent money on, thank you very much.
