Any ideas how to clear out my creeper infested house? I can see 5 of ´em just infront of my entrance door.

[QUOTE=PieClock;25024324]1. He does need to provide updates: We bought a beta game. Beta means it's not finished. Not finished means he needs to update. 2. Sure he needs to sleep and shit but he's got way more lazy than he was a few months ago. Not to mention he uses the excuse 'friday' as the only day he can update. I bet that there won't be another update until another friday even though he missed today because he is [i]lazy[/i].[/QUOTE] Lets see every friday I remember him missing was he was either away from his home or like this friday the server needs recoding and that is a big hassle. I dont see him being lazy, him missing a update was (I hope) was for the bettering of the game ie, going to Bellevue to talk to valve, or he was having and life and going to a indie dev thing.

[QUOTE=Diealready;25023200]How fucking long did it take you to make the torches sync to the music?[/QUOTE] I didn't try to sync anything up except the beginning and end. I simply sporadically placed torches where I thought I needed light. [QUOTE=Toothpick;25023415]They aren't though.[/QUOTE] Though maybe I'll go back into it and sync up the torches, If I find the time.

[QUOTE=ClarkWasHere;25024153]Carto, please. Also, Tutorial on Boosters? And how to make them not go in the opposite direction.[/QUOTE] Rendering Carto now. Boosters, just a ring of track next to the track you want. 3x3. Place 5 carts and hit it. If it goes the wrong direction, just push it the other way with your body.

[QUOTE=assassin_Raptor;25024449]leave that chunk of the world.[/QUOTE] There´s a badly made ´creeper observation chamber´ in my house, i underestimated the radius of the mob spawner. Also, i set the delay of it to the 1/10th of a normal spawner (2 s instead of 20 s).

[QUOTE=PieClock;25024364]Well that takes my point even further.[/QUOTE] He is releasing more updates than most indie devs ever will at this rate, even with this recent slowdown, and he lets us purchase/play an alpha version of a game , cut him some slack. Also the fact that you didn't know it was in alpha, but thought it was beta, you should get some shit to back whatever you say, before you start backtalking him.

[QUOTE=spanaren;25024519]why not just make the booster on your normal track so it just keeps going back and forth? :v:[/QUOTE] huh? I put a booster at the end before recording, but took it out to clean it up. I made it light that so I could have a cart going back and forth as I worked, but I ended up simply using a powered cart to push me all the way to the start and destroyed them. I used the booster simply to have the smoothest travel possible.

Doesn't boosters have unlimited speed?

Anyone know how to import forge map creations to my save cos they are just not appearing!

Can someone upload the server hosting tool?

[QUOTE=Ishmael12;25023320]I know doomish has one. Talkin' bout minecraft...[/QUOTE] Don't even start him off! He started singing this earlier on voice chat. Fucking annoying.

Hey does anyone have a server up with Skylands?

[QUOTE=spanaren;25024587]Uhm ok, but I'm wondering, why make a booster next to your track and not make the booster ON the track? Doesn't boosters have unlimited speed?[/QUOTE] you don't know what you're talking about, FYI a "booster" isn't a cart that goes super fast. a "booster" is the 3 carts going around in a circle right next to the main track.

While I agree Notch has gotten noticeably more lazy, I don't think it is time to start saying the sky is falling quite yet.

I don't get it.

[QUOTE=Pure;25024771]While I agree Notch has gotten noticeably more lazy, I don't think it is time to start saying the sky is falling quite yet.[/QUOTE] Less being lazy and more talking to potential business partners and starting a company, but to some degree, i agree.

[QUOTE=spanaren;25024587]Uhm ok, but I'm wondering, why make a booster next to your track and not make the booster ON the track? Doesn't boosters have unlimited speed?[/QUOTE] Boosters are glitches in the speed/physics of the cart. The carts go at like insane speeds, and when they kit the cart on the rail next to it, they sort of charge it with a shit load of runtime. Here is the Carto. I marked the start point in the video and compressed it a good bit. [url]http://filesmelt.com/dl/map1-obliqueangle-day.jpg[/url]

[QUOTE=spanaren;25024782]Yes, but why have them go in a circle next to the main track instead of on the main track? I don't get it.[/QUOTE] Because. When a cart on the main rail runs adjacent to a cart on a separate rail then they link up causing a glitch in the physics engine and it accelerates the main cart to maximum speed. [url]http://minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Minecart[/url] [QUOTE=http://minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Minecart] Boosters Minecarts can act very strangely when they're next to each other. This effect is used to create boosters. A booster consists of a short track with another minecart placed next to the track you want to boost. The two tracks will have one or more squares of contact. When your minecart is next to the other cart, they will both accelerate and get lots of momentum. There is a maximum speed, but there is no maximum momentum. If a cart gets to high amounts of energy, there are likely to be glitches. A good way to avoid high momentum is to make sure that no cart is incrementing its energy over time (caused by a loop without stops). Example (4:52 - 5:17) of two boosters. The first booster is giving the cart more and more momentum over time, which will eventually cause glitches. The second booster resets the momentum by stopping every cart each loop, making it more reliable. [/QUOTE]

If your logic is what I think it is... :psyboom:

Spanaren's.

[I]Why use boosters to boost and not just use them as normal carts instead of boosting since they go at insane speeds anyway.[/I]

[QUOTE=spanaren;25024937][I]Why use boosters to boost and not just use them as normal carts instead of boosting since they go at insane speeds anyway.[/I][/QUOTE] -sorry, that was rude- THE ACT OF ONE CART ON ONE TRACK TOUCHING ANOTHER CART ON ANOTHER TRACK BOOSTS BOTH CARTS. If they don't touch each other, there is no boost.

Fine then I guess i'm retarded :c

It's like those hot wheels turbo motors. You have those foam wheels that hit the car. if you put the wheel on the car, it won't go anywhere. It's a catapult.

Are you putting your server back up Prusse?
