Re: Minecraft

For those who didnt know - its much easier to make the portals with lava/water buckets than mining all that obsidian. (see youtube for reference)

Re: Minecraft

Nice, I'll have to snag that when I get home. You guys can tell from my screenshots how ugly this game is with low graphics quality and default textures

Re: Minecraft

Any idea if you can irrigate under a farm (so that you have more surface area for crops on top.

i.e.

crops
dirt
water

Re: Minecraft

The water source must be either one block below the dirt block the crop sits on or at the level of the crop. So no (yours would be 2 blocks down - so it isn't possible to water a crop from underneath). I wouldn't worry about surface area. This is the most efficient way to water your crops, with regards to surface area (water irrigates up to 4 blocks away):

XXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXX
XXXXOXXXX
XXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXX

X = crop block, O = water block

Re: Minecraft

I guess that's not so bad because you can collect seeds/wheat from those holes as you replant regardless. Did you realize that my diagram was

air
crops and air
solid dirt
solid water
something solid (like dirt)

Or did you think it was like

crops and air
dirt
dirt
water
dirt

Re: Minecraft

Mine is a top-down view, not a cross-section.

As I said, layering water under the dirt block that a crop sits on will NOT hydrate it.

Re: Minecraft

The Nether Express™ is up and running from the town portal to my portal (thanks to Peacashew for donating some glass!). Josh, I dug a tunnel to your portal and started the track on it - you just gotta throw down enough booster tracks to get it up that hill and you'll be fine. The track stops at my portal on the way from town, and you can just press the button you stop at to get going towards your portal.

Who else has portals they want hooked up? jd, did you ever build one? gypsie, where's yours at? akspartan?
