Thank you, you are right!

Here is a console command that may be useful to you for large scale terraforming.

I appreciate your perspective as a newer player. I’m glad to see folks like you getting into it.

I don’t think I implied that Minecraft was better before Microsoft. Having that big money and wide audience has kept the game relevant and it’s great that they’re continuing to develop it. I was primarily pointing out that they used to do more with less, and they didn’t tease us with unattainable content.

Yes, of course Minecraft is held to a higher standard than modders. They have Microsoft money and professional programmers, and they’ve been coding this game for the past one and a half decades which is an amazing length of time.

Look, I’ve been playing long enough to remember when dogs showed up. When jungles were added just a year after Beta concluded, we were all in awe. New huge trees with different wood! Vines all over everything! Melons! Sunsets! Three new mobs! There was tons of new content, mechanics, and features to explore. And they kept releasing new biomes, mechanics, and features, creating what we all recognize as Minecraft today.

However, at some point during their acquisition, this really slowed down. Instead of getting whole new biomes and mechanics, they started teasing us with a handful of features modders had been doing for years. We already had Ender Chests, and they could be shared across the server with a three-digit code, and they could store liquids or be made into backpacks. We already had rabbits, and squirrels, and songbirds in the Twilight Forest. We already had integrated redstone and kids were learning how to make complex circuits with it. Teasing us with three mobs we might see one of in a year or two is a real letdown.

My point is, Mojang has more resources than they’ve ever had, more subscribers than any other game ever, and yet they act like they’re God’s gift to gamers when they actually perform more poorly than they did 12 years ago. As a player from the very beginning, I know better, and I find this behavior pedantic and insulting. The only reason I still play at all is because college students are still making featureful content over spring break that makes it a whole new adventure again.

I don’t “see” things as if I’m looking at them, I see them the way you imagine a taste.

I do a lot of visual thinking and 3D manipulation but I don’t ever actually see it. I also have music playing pretty much all the time whether I like it or not.

I find it very frustrating having a life partner who doesn’t want to investigate their ND, especially the executive dysfunction. There are so many resources that would make both our lives easier!

I miss Dynmap, I used to host it on a subdomain for my friends to play and explore.

The mirrors are adjustable via the console because driver profiles change their positions automatically along with the steering wheel and seat positions.

What about allowing mobs to spawn in another dimension? Either the Nether and End or a second Overworld? It should be straightforward to get some code that lets you set difficulty per-dimension.

You could put some collectors in there for the loot when they inevitably drown, so they have to swim to get their loot back too!

If they slow development down any further they will go backwards. College students bang out more content-filled mods on spring break than these guys release in a year.

I’m here for the relatable content

The current world is Medieval Minecraft for Forge, running on a dedicated homebrew server. Previously we were playing All the Mods 8. Our household has been playing modded since Beta, so we’ve tried many, many mods and packs.

We have run Bedrock once or twice, but nothing beats modded Java for new and interesting content. I also really can’t do without Journeymap.

He really likes to acquire things and then turn them into (e)Xes.

Well you’ll still be allowed in Australia

“We were throttled because we use too much data. They said this happens when people stream videos a lot.”

Right, I can’t use my phone without it and I’m not buying into Apple. I also really like the user reviews on Maps, it’s like Yelp and TripAdvisor before they both fell to enshttification. I’ve also got a Voice number that I pay nothing for and I give it out when businesses demand a phone number. I don’t see myself switching to anything else for those.

This valuable post here, apparently
