This happened to me many times. Just go to the minecraft website and dl the installer again. If that doesn help then go to your minecraft folder and delete everything and install fresh (dont forget to save your world files if you want)

The concept of one central station is well and good, but not really applicable on the route from the central portal out towards hoganj's/mine/josh's. It may become a good idea as we add more destinations - for example, if we added routes out to akspartan's portal, and whoever built the portal on the hill out near 30, 40 or so in the nether - but I don't see how it solves the current problem of switching individual tracks on the current bus route.

Like, in the hub picture above, those 6 tracks up top are presumably all going to different places. That would be a waste of resources on the current route.

Make one like this.

Actually, it looks like that's a little gimmicky and not built on solid circuitry - the way tracks are switched relies on redstone signals dying after 15 blocks, so its functionality is tied directly to how far away the tracks are from the button that triggers it. goofyballer doesn't roll like that.

Real men only test redstone contraptions under the constant threat of getting blown up by creepers

(so I guess that means I'm not a real man for as long as mobs are still off on the server

)

Hmm...maybe. I particularly like the doing-****-with-redstone-circuits aspect of it in Minecraft but that looks kinda fun.

Thought I had a good idea for a bus station type deal but pistons really just don't work for pushing a minecart from one track to the next. They **** up the track if your minecart is on a track, and if it's not on a track then the piston just goes through you and your cart. Bleh.

Okay, I think I came up with a decent idea:

Should be self-explanatory. Same process happens in reverse coming from the other direction, it's a symmetrical design - pretend that netherrack block at the top (under "k!*") has a button and a powered rail there. Could also have a detector rail where the "2" arrow is instead of a button and use that to set a delay timer to automatically kick off your cart again if you don't get rid of it in 4 seconds or something.

This has kept me up late enough for tonight, will maybe try to implement tomorrow

Experimented with redstone for the first time last night and discovered that you need the sticky piston to make the real cool stuff (lightswitches, faucets, gates.) Since we can't make those until mobs are back on, I think I'll make a railway to the borders instead.

probably cant purchase until friday, just want to make sure the server is still jumping. At this point, Ive done everythign I wanted to in single player mode, so I need a good server to connect to to justify buying the game outright.

I can confirm jumping. As soon as I stick my head into a mine, there are about a hundred cave spiders jumping right on me.

I really hate cave spiders. And why aren't they switched off when other mobs are off? And also - I hate cave spiders.

Against my better judgement I put a chest of slimeballs in front of the penis tree at spawn. I separated them into stacks of 16. You only need 1 slimeball to make a sticky piston so be cool and leave the rest for others.

Hehe...the only thing better than a penis tree is a slimy penis tree. Hope there's a little goo left when I get there.
