I can't find anything on the forums about this, and my experimentation has proven pretty difficult. I'm trying to build an indoor tree farm and, for purposes of harvesting, need to ensure that it is all oaks and all of the oaks only grow to the small size. I need to use oaks because I must have blocks at the level of the sapling for my design to work (it's redpower deployers with sapling and bone meal. bad form to post modded stuff here, I know, but I thought you guys might have the expertise i've been unable to find elsewhere, and my question applies to vanilla). Any help would be appreciated.
My guess would be that the sun isn't actually a light source, but that lighting is simulated while the sun is visible, making it and the moon seem really similar during the daytime.
The Kepler craft has confirmed multiple planets with circumbinary orbits. They're difficult as all hell to find because our techniques for finding distant planets mostly involve the way those planets interrupt light from their stars, and two stars means the interplay of light is weird, but tatooine is, more or less, real.
I'm praying I don't have to, because I'm like 3/4 of the way through full-zoom mapping and colonizing this one, and I'd really hate to lose the in' underground canal system I've built. I'm on PC and I know that the nether info generates in its own folder. Would I be able to just delete that folder and have the nether regenerate (this time, ideally, with quartz)? Any help is, of course, appreciated.
I have a bit of a sub-question to this one. I've not been to the nether yet in my main world, which was generated before 1.5, then updated. Do I have to do anything to ensure that I'll have nether quartz when I finally get around to building the portal, or is the nether generated when you first visit?
"When a hopper is connected to an object to its side (for example a chest) and there is a hopper directly underneath it, items in the hopper will 'leak' to the underlying hopper. However, if an even number of the same item falls into the hopper at the same time, half will go to bottom hopper and the other half to the object the first hopper is connected to. If an odd number then the extra one will go into the bottom hopper, as it takes priority. When that bottom hopper is full the items will then be stored straight away in the object to which the first hopper is connected."

perhaps this could be exploited here. Connect a hopper to a junk chest, put another one beneath with each slot having 1 of whatever desired material, so it can only hold what you want. Perhaps figure out some way to dump the junk chest back into the input. Each time it sorts, there's a 50/50 chance that you'll get what you want in the second hopper, so if you run everything through multiple times, you should get it eventually. Similar to (and as inefficient as) a bubble sort algorithm on a computer, but it might get you what you need.
