Notch has just announced 4 hours ago that he is now currently working on 1.6 and is going to try and fix all the bugs on 1.5_01 featured in the MC Wiki. He is also working on the new feature : Maps! You can learn more on his blog. I am very looking forward to this but what do you guys think?
Is it just me or does the map look an awful lot like the map screen in Might and Magic VI? It is nice to know that Steve has a left hand though - I'd always assumed he lost it in whatever tragic events left him stranded on a beach on a deserted continent.

Hey guys, I found a bug with 1.6.4. However, I don't know if this has always been a bug or if this is already being fixed. But I'll say it anyway. When you use the alt+left click to instantly put an item into a chest...if the chest if full then the game just freezes. I only tried it with green dye but I'm going to assume it is with all the items. Also it was a small chest if that makes any difference at all.
Hey, how large is the map? Whats the scale on it? How many blocks x blocks?
I normally used a compass to find my way back, also can I mark points on the map?
One last thing, Does the map move with you i.e If you move 100 blocks north and the maps limit is 50 will it follow you, or will it only map a certain spot/area?
Thanks.

At the top of my map is says 'map_0'. Is there a way to rename it? I say this because on the pictures above it doesn't say anything at the top.
In every map you create in each world, the first one will always be called map_0, but when you create another map it will be map_1 then map_2, map_3, map_4, etc. So as of now you cannot rename it.

1.Every pixel on the map correlates to 1/4 of a chunk, so a full chunk takes up 4 pixels.
2.No, at least not yet.
3.No, it will only view a certain area. Presumably the whole area were you created the map.

I like also how he's fixing some bugs, that should be nice.
Ha, exactly what I was thinking of too. And maybe notch can make us a diamond finder/GPS.
At least its not dickbutt.
Then it would be SO much easier to know where you are immediately. Notch wanted the game to be more difficult than easy.

Did you drop it and picked it back up?
