The Orichalcon Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 Managed to get on. somehow my client actually did revert to an older version, deleting it made it reupdate. Weird. The server is quite laggy now for some reason. Can't mine blocks without them reappearing. I guess I'll leave it for another night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crowbar Man Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 Things i've noticed: As you mention, this newest update has made the block reappearing problem 10x worse, almost EVERY time you mine a block it reappears now :/ Lag is generally worse now, lag spikes everywhere. I think due to more frequent CPU spikes Boats are server side now so other players can see them, but riding them is dangerous now. Its laggy, and If you lag too much while riding a boat, you'll be stuck, and often in some seizurerific grid lag world, and nothing but disconnecting fixes it, which then sometimes creates a clone of you. Fun times! Hopefully some patches will come out to fix these issues, from both noth and fans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Author Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 Well, for the block reappearing, the trick is tap it once, release the muse button, and then mine it completely. I use that for redstone and other annoyingly long blocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capa Langley Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 What I did while I was clearing out stone was holding down the mouse and keep hitting immediately as it reappears. It usually just disappears again after that hit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemonectric Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 (edited) So hey guys. If you're feeling tired of all your spawny snow, you should come visit Lemon Resort to the north (follow the Redneck-ville sign at spawn ). Here's the finished biodome. It took me a few days to carve out. It's constantly full of animals, despite being underground.

I'm in the process of digging a big hole between two adjacent bluffs, because I want a tower on a bridge over a deep lava pit. Takes a looong time.

Darklink42 Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 I'm working on a replica of the Babil Tower from FF4. Can't do the floor plans or anything, but the outside will look cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prophetik music Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 y'all should check out my multi-level reed farm =) and my reading room/library that's currently in progress where my old reed farm was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Orichalcon Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 I'm working on making all the public areas look nicer. I'm tired of seeing ugly holes in the ground, torches randomly scattered everywhere, patchy snow where people have shovelled it carelessly. Time to clean up and straighten up I say! I just wish there wasn't that unworkable square around spawn so I could tidy up in that area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abadoss Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 Well... I still can't smelt anything. Anyone know a work around for this? Or, I would be willing to trade smelted iron/gold for unsmelted... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a bug that makes your furnace eat stuff if it's next to other blocks, it's a bug in the way the game re-positions furnaces (turns them around) Once you put your coal and smelting items in, close the furnace screen, smelting won't work while you're watching. Don't check it too often as it's possible a servercheck bug can delete your stuff. Once the flames go out you should be able to grab your stuff.

I just wish there wasn't that unworkable square around spawn so I could tidy up in that area. That little bridge right at the spawn point needs a makeover. We could even turn it into a little raised welcome center with directions and stuff. But yeah...spawn protection. Aaaaghh Anyway, I've been expanding/altering the highway to Redneck-ville so it won't be quite as narrow and zigzaggy.

My furnaces are placed snugly in between chests and sand walls, and I've only rarely lost anything.

The Orichalcon Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 It's the ones on the edges that tend to bug out, as they randomly want to turn around to fast different directions. I find they're good if they're in a long row, but you can't use the end two for fear of them bugging out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Upthorn Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 Furnaces tend not to bug out if there's sufficient lighting around. And if they do bug out, lighting a fire next to them will almost always fix them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crowbar Man Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 Looks like minecraft.net has been having some issues. I've updated the map, i've turned it so up/right is north, and shrunk it 1/3 instead of 1/4 so you can see things a bit more clearly. http://minecraft.minnazu.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HalcyonSpirit Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 I have yet to lose anything to furnaces since I put together my furnace room. If you want to avoid losing things to furnaces, set them up so that there is only ONE way they can possibly face. That way the auto-rotate bug doesn't kick in. I can't show a picture right now because Minecraft.net is down, but just have the furnaces surrounded on all sides except one by any other block, including other furnaces. The furnaces will auto-rotate to face the one open side, and they will stay that way, thus preventing them from eating resources. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HalcyonSpirit Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 It seems to be associated with it. If a furnace eats my resources, it ALWAYS is facing a different direction from what it was before. Now, this could just be an effect of the bug, but it seems that eliminating any need for the furnace to auto-rotate also prevents the bug from occurring. At least for me.
