Wubbles Posted March 15, 2011 Just to be sure, I didn't bold "First Epoch" to imply that I'm angry the link doesn't work; I did it to reference the way Kingzjester has "Fourth Epoch" written in the OP. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chuckpebble Posted March 15, 2011 Hey everyone, been away from the game for a few updates and sorry if this isn't totally multiplayer related, but I came across this in a mine under my lake: So previously, that kind of thing meant smothering death if you so much as looked at it the wrong way. I'd avoid it but there's iron adjacent to it. The thing that gives me hope is that I've heard that there's sandstone now. So, is that what this is? Is it going to try and kill me?

MrHoatzin Posted March 15, 2011 I think it may be a glitch... It may decide that it wants to kill you when you start mining around. EXPERIMENT! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
a purple future Posted March 15, 2011 apart from my stargate pyramid, i haven't seen very much sandstone used yet so i'd guess it's sand that wants to kill you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chuckpebble Posted March 16, 2011 tabacco said: Remove a block of it and see if it all falls on you I went up and just started placing cobblestones under it. I started to feel safe after placing about 5 blocks, then BAM! Cave in! Somehow I didn't die though. Two blocks passed through me before I was able to move away. Something was definitely different about that, I've had that happen before and been hopelessly stuck, suffocating. it would've looked cool if it was a huge area.

thl Posted March 16, 2011 sandstone won't fall but looks slightly different than sand (it's kind of the sand version of cobblestone). I've heard some people have seen it "in nature" but i haven't yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chuckpebble Posted March 17, 2011 Yeah, I'm starting to get the feeling that I would only see natural sandstone in a freshly rolled world, or maybe when I explore new areas in the one I'm using. Coincidentally, the world I'm using just happens to be the very first world I rolled, many months ago. Nothing else I've generated since has been nearly as interesting.

Once they're rolled, chunks don't change. Stuff like sandstone would only occur in chunks generated after changes to the terrain generation code. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've found this too, at least near spawn, new worlds don't seem to exhibit the grand peaks and overhangs that I saw when I first got MC in octoberish. If you explore a bit you can still find crazy shit in new worlds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Murdoc Posted March 20, 2011 Didn't mean for my comments to be so negative, because minecraft is neat and cool, but apart of me wants it to be dwarf fortress since it's mildly similar. Just interesting that this took off and DF didn't, probably do to it being easier to understand and 3d. And really, minecraft could eventually get there, as long as I can administer a little civilization brewing booze, I'd be content, hehe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The current version of our auth plugin doesn't let me add users unless they're currently online. I was going to try to upgrade it last night, but my DSL at home has been out for 2 days now, so I can't ssh in except through my phone (NOT the way to do server work ).
