So I'm watching my friend play, I saw creeper [b]and a spider[/b] explode and do no damage to the environment.
Still no weather. :(

[QUOTE=Kiamberm;29321584]How'd you manage to make that slim wooden beam?[/QUOTE] Fence. Either find a mod to stack fences, or place a fence on top of dirt, then remove the dirt and place a fence there.
The single only danger of rain is lightning. Seriously? I hope there is a mod that adds flooding.

Here's a screenshot of an electrified Creeper: [url=http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/File:Electrified_Creeper.png#file]They become electrified and make a huge fucking explosion[/url] (Sorry for the link, I'm posting this on someone else's labtop and don't have Gyazo. I've never used a hosting site.)
Being hunted by 3 electrified creepers ain't fun :gonk:
Isn't anybody else having problems with the update? Now everytime somebody goes in a bed the whole map becomes invisble exept for the skybox. Also after sometime everything dropped(items,blocks etc) gets pulled to your current position even water or lava(when you place it with a bucket). Running mine-os,might explain it.
When did lightening turn pig into pigmen?
[QUOTE=credesniper;29323336]When did thunder turn pig into pigmen?[/QUOTE] 1.5. I've yet to see it happen, but I hear it's terrifying.

[QUOTE=horsedrowner;29321889]Why does rain have to be dangerous?[/QUOTE] Well, not dangerous, but it's a change in the environment, it should, CHANGE, the environment. I'm not saying it needs to be dangerous, but I'd like to see varying thunderstorm lengths and flooding.
It won't rain OR snow damn it.
[QUOTE=credesniper;29323336]When did lightening turn pig into pigmen?[/QUOTE] Well we didn't have thunder before 1.5 so... I don't get your question.
[QUOTE=Melon_Mapper;29323836]Well we didn't have thunder before 1.5 so... Idon't get your question.[/QUOTE] I think he's saying he didn't know it was a feature of 1.5. Would be like if you were in the car with someone and they suddenly turned in to a McDonald's and you asked 'since when were we going to stop for food?"
[QUOTE=CowThing;29309231]Is that new to this update? I hope they were experimenting with making spider webs that spiders would make.[/QUOTE] It would be cool if they made nests with webs and eggs and stuff.
[QUOTE=Baboo00;29325635]It would be cool if they made nests with webs and eggs and stuff.[/QUOTE] or if they tried to block off caves with the stuff, to set up ambushes.
How rare are electro-creepers and how big are the explosions?
[QUOTE=squids_eye;29325711]How rare are electro-creepers and how big are the explosions?[/QUOTE] Rarity: Very rare (the rarity of it raining at night and the lightning just happening to hit a creeper) Explosion: Bigger, but not huge.

I would have loved for the boosters to be able to boost a cart from the stopped position. Though I know it just supposed to "boost" but I'd rather it also be able to push from the start.
I'm disappointed with the detector tracks, I want to be able to detect between an empty cart and an occupied cart, until then I'll just stick with the old way of making cart boosters.
Just got the "On A Rail" achievement. Used up half my iron making all the track. Also went through several rainstorms along the way. [media]http://img815.imageshack.us/img815/9911/onarail.jpg[/media] Is it just me, or is 1 km of track a bit overkill for one achievement? Not that it wasn't a fun ride.
Im probably late to this, but since when could spiders climb blocks? two of them just climbed over my 4 block high walls with no roof and attacked me! Yep, just read it was added in 1.2...wow how didn't i notice this.
[QUOTE=Frankiscool!;29328674]Im probably late to this, but since when could spiders climb blocks? two of them just climbed over my 4 block high walls with no roof and attacked me![/QUOTE] Since 3 non-major updates ago.
Each time these updates come out, I play for a few hours and all goes well. Right as I get set-up, though, the game brutally does nothing other than try to remind me why I quit. Today, I had good luck at first, a pack of wolves under my command and a beautiful start. Then all this happened. - Creeper spawned right under a tree behind me during the day hours. Killed me and one of my three dogs. - Found an empty cave passage with some diamond at the end, on the return trip, which was only a ten to twenty meters, the game proceeded to spawn three skeletons and four creepers in my path, all in very close proximity. - Settling on the overworld for a bit, I was rearranging my tiny cave-shack (5 x 6 x 3) that was fully lit (8 torches) during the fucking day. Both entrances were sealed, and as I was crafting some bread, a creeper spawned literally a foot away and took out half of my house/shack. I quit, once again, after the last event. Playing on Peaceful feels so boring to me, but when I put it on Easy or Normal, the game goes no-bars full-on aggressive and sees just how much shit it can pull before I quit. That, or I'm just really unlucky. :v:

so, how powerful are powered rails compared to a normal minecart booster?
