Woot! Awesome update! Things go by so much quicker now! This includes my inventory of eighth blocks!
Note for usage: While you can make every thing in the game out of eighth blocks, it is a better idea to simply use full blocks with additions of eighth blocks.
I just finished a new video showcasing the latest features from the updated mod. I'll edit this and throw it up when it uploads (prolly an hour or so).
EDIT: Video Up. Enjoy.

Oh, ok. That button. I was thinking about yoshi9048's idea about torches, and I didn't understand where you were seeing a button with torches :tongue.gif:
However, yes, this may be a good idea, but not sure it's worth the effort (which would be kind of important... the original idea was not to create a mini copy of everything you can do in the whole game !)

Also, if i want to update to the latest version of the mod, do I have to delete all the mod folders and settings and start again?
Just delete the "Microcubes.zip" and replace it by "Microcubes (v0.2).zip". Sorry, I shouldn't have renamed it.
This is also posted on the mod page for eighth blocks in the released mod forum.
I won't copypasta you, just restate.
There is a limit to the amount of eighth blocks you can build high before you need a full block anchor. Otherwise your eighth blocks will take on a sky skin (they iz invizibul)
(which would be kind of important... the original idea was not to create a mini copy of everything you can do in the whole game !)
It wasn't an idea to miniaturize it, it was a way to make buttons flush with walls.
Weren't you speaking about placing the button in a 1x1x1 microcube ?
Edit : Nevermind, that was a 2x1x1 microcube. There is no resizing to do then, that's just re-implementing the whole buttons functionality inside the microcubes.
I put this in the same bucket as redstone wire, fire, water and lava flowing and inside-the-microcube torches, then : might be done when I have will and motivation, if I find a way to implement it properly and as long as there is nothing more important to do before.
Hm well after having a glance to the class implementing the button, I don't think it would be possible without huge changes in the way minecraft is working, because there is no information about the orientation when you click somewhere.
Edit : Nevermind again, I must be tired. I've already done raytracing for the placing and removing of the blocks, I sure can do a little bit more of it !

Sweet! Are you helping the guy who suggested the 8th blocks in the first place or are you just adding stuff to it?

Edit: Fixed it. New version is win.
I support the allocator so much that i need multiple banners to prove it!
I believe Yoshi is referring to having floating microcubes in a structure without having ones underneath it.
Also, if i want to update to the latest version of the mod, do I have to delete all the mod folders and settings and start again?
That's what I did.

2x1x1 micro cube... that might be smaller, but it's pretty close to buttons current size.

EDIT: Oh ya, I should probably change the links to mod download, and link to the new mod thread.
Is the old mod thread pretty much dead?
A: If sand and gravel 8th's aren't affected by gravity, then do that.
B: I want an 8th block nether portal :smile.gif:
As I recall, sand and gravel aren't breakable into 1/8 right now, if they ever will be.
8th block nether portal would be sweet.

Glass is. I trapped a pig with glass 8th blocks.
