Darts are basically arrows without feathers. This means they will go a shorter distance and only deal 1 heart of damage.
The advantage? They can be crafted in the 2x2 window in case of an emergency.
A bow will always shoot Arrows if both Arrows and Darts are present. However, if the Darts in the inventory are in the slot directly above the bow, they will be shot instead of Arrows.
Backup ammunition is a good idea. Of course, if you have darts, you need a dart board, then Minecraft becomes a hangout game for 50 year olds (if it isn't already)
sounds simple enough, although i feel that the recipe is too similar to the arrow, seeing as it is only a feather short from the arrow.
perhaps they would do the same damage as an arrow, but they would be much less accurate, as without fletching an arrow becomes less aerodynamic.
Without an aerodynamic arrow it will likely have more drag, thus less thrust. Thrust is basically the speed, and speed is penetration power, and penetration is damage. A bullet shot out of a pistol will hurt more than a bullet thrown by a toddler :smile.gif:

If there ever was a remote possibility that I would open Minecraft and see rocket ships and lightsabers, I'd much sooner take up alcoholism.

Search. It was everyone else's idea first, and it sucked every time.

Why are you giving toddlers bullets? And also, a suggestion, if I may. Maybe make the darts throwable as well? But only if the bow is not present in the inventory or something.

Possible. It would be less damage obviously that way.
