This may be a bug but it existed for several updates with no "fixing", so i'm assuming it's a planned feature.
Notch and jeb seem to have gone back on their decision to make glass panes recollectible. While at first glance this would be fine, if you think about ways to get glass out of it's "window slot", it becomes pretty silly. First, what do you do in real life when you want the glass in a window moved or removed? do you smash it violently and let its shards spill over the floor? No, you get it out of it's frame and slide it out. Why can't you do this in-game? I have no idea. If you ask me, you should be able to recollect glass panes in some way.
What do you think of this? please post.

1.9 pre 2 he said they cant be collected anymore, you gotta craft them, they break like norm glass.

Well it's pretty expected that glass panes couldn't be collected anymore for the fact that when breaking glass in rl, you necessarily cant get it back, so if you cant have glass blocks back why not have the same thing to glass panes?

because you push the pane out. What if you aren't breaking it? if you punch wheat, that would be just as bad as trampling it. Therefore, Steve is harvesting the crops, not just punching them.

Hmmm.. You have a point there, but thats just like saying im trying to push glass blocks out.. yet itll still break?

Realistically, can you:
Punch a tree,
Pick up dirt in a convenient block,
Propel a boat with sheer will,
Have spiders larger than most humans,
Find random boxes with goodies laying randomly around,
Be able to fashion a diamond pickaxe with raw diamonds you clawed out of the earth and a stick?
The second you can do any of these in real life, you can start comparing real life to minecraft.

Life is not measured in the breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.
well they put shears in to collect wool like in RL, and leaves... so why not put in those suction thingys they use to take glass out, in. because I am always getting annoyed at how if you misplace glass then you have to get more sand, smelt it, then go back to your project and misplace it again.
it should be like hold right click for a couple of seconds and the glass slowly moves out of the block its in, then when its fully out it drops a glass plain for you to use.

For only six glass blocks, you get sixteen glass panes. Sixteen. Come on! If you're going to be moving glass around that much, make extra. Not like it's hard!
New idea, glass related blocks get broken into pieces when broken, and can stack up to 6 or 8, be smelted back into regular glass block or glass pane depending on amount in the stack.
Sorta like glowstone.
I reckon just a line of slime - iron - stick in the middle of the grid going down
Potentially. I was thinking of the ones I've seen in real life (For example, the holders windshield replacement companies use) that have a handle in the middle.

Did you actually read the post? :/
Now that you think of it, a crowbar is nice for whacking Combine and prying things! :biggrin.gif:
Which would put Steve at the intelligence level of the Neanderthalic Villager.
Wait, can't you hit things with pickaxes and such too? what about pistons?

Sounds good! But what would be the craft order?
It gets a result.
Potentially:
Green = slimeball.
