I don't think a tutorial would work very well because it's a sandbox game and anything could be going on while you're trying to read tutorials. There's not much text in minecraft and I like that, it's like it doesn't impose anything on you.
What I would like however is a craftopedia, a list of all crafting recipes. But there is the wiki.
I understand what you are saying, but the tutorials not going to rip anything away as it will be optional as well as least wordy as possible perhaps.
What do you mean anything can be going on while you're trying to read the tutorials, what could possibly go wrong?
I need help specifically with posting a signature on a regular forum post, I wish to gather support for a suggestion that I have and went through the labor of creating a banner for my cause (Fixing boats) and I know how to post the image itself, but I do not know how to make it so that someone can make it their own signature, and when it is made a signature then when clicked it will link to the front page of my cause. How do I accomplish this?
Well they are wooden. Maybe have stone boats and diamond boats and gold ones too?
I wouldn't care whether more kinds of boats are added or not, but personally, I am completely find with the wooden boats, just not with how darned glitchy they tend to be and the fact that they break from the slightest thing, even lily pads and you don't even get a boat block back, just less than was put into the boat.
I remember taking twenty minutes figuring out how to cut down a tree when I first started playing in late Alpha. Good idea.
Yes, that's the very point exactly. I had similar issues when I first started playing in Alpha as well, but my main problem was crafting, I knew I could make things, but I did not know how to really create the most basic of materials in the least.
It would be most helpful to new players who are very young as well, children play Minecraft too you know, so that they have something to walk them through some of the basic things in the game to get them started with little to no frustration. Trust me it can be frustrated not knowing how a game works, what to do, or not knowing how to do something at all. Minecraft is pretty harsh on beginners.
I think that sleeping should be like the Somnia mod, you can choose whether to sleep to dawn or dusk, whichever is nearest I guess, and if you have a clock and right click on a bed, you can choose what time of the day you want to wake up. Also, while sleeping the game actually simulates the world, thus while sleeping you will lose hunger, as well as regain health in return and those baddies won't just disappear anymore when you wake up.
Stone doors were used a lot in medieval times, which Minecraft is debatably placed in (it's at least MOSTLY medieval). We're stuck with wooden and iron doors. Wooden doors are much weaker than our cobble houses, and iron doors are expensive.
The stone door would basically be wood but stronger. I always hate these kinds of items, but this is an exception because wooden doors would still be suitable for many houses for decoration purposes. The stone door should be thick and a bit ugly unless you want that "fortified" look. The annoying thing is how you can make a strong house out of cobble, brick, end stone, or obsidian, but you can never have a strong door. Even iron sucks.
Make iron doors a lot stronger and harder to mine, and add stone doors, which have the blast resistance of cobble and take the amount of time to mine that it currently takes to mine iron doors.
I never suggested they be used for climbing exactly, like throwing a rope up somewhere and climbing up. It could be used to safely make it down a surface though, such as a tall building. Like, hook it to a block at the top by right clicking, then climb down safely I guess. Climbing up may be a bit too much as it would make vines and ladders less useful. I think you would have to go up and manually attach it to blocks, instead of simply throwing it.
It could also be used to just tie mobs to blocks, or perhaps as even a trap? :biggrin.gif:
Yes, it could be used similar to the fishing rod, but both ways, meaning that you can 'lasso' or tie something, then attach the opposite end to a block. Alternatively, you could rope something, say a cow, and walk with it, thus the cow will follow you. This would be more specific than using wheat, since wheat could have the entire forest following you and you wouldn't have to worry about leaving it behind as you would both move at a similar pace naturally.

Fish mobs have been planned since like, the Halloween update. That was like a year ago in Alpha.

I agree it would surely be awesome if it were toggable, I know that not everyone would like it, but I surely would.

Good idea!
