I've been thinking about this for a while, so made a Curse ID and posted all of my ideas. I was thinking About how awesome Ice Bergs in minecraft would be. Im not Certain of all there behaviors yet but this is what I have so far! Icebergs will be in random shapes (Roughly 10-20 blocks long) and will be about 5-10 blocks tall and twice the height under water. I'm not sure about this but just maybe they will be able to slightly move about 1-2 blocks a minecraft day. (Would be cool to have a moving house.) They would only spawn in a winter biome and if they did move they would slowly drift. If they entered a desert biome a they would slowly melt. Ice bergs will only spawn in large enough bodies of water. If It started Snowing and the the iceberg was surrounded by ice it wouldn't move to the other ice melts away.
Well thats my idea so far! I Would Like feed back!
This sounds like an epic idea, i've never heard of it before although it would take more than just adding moving blocks (which is a lot) but also changing how the world generates into making the lakes larger. Oh and it would also be neat to control where the iceberg moves perhaps with some wind sail? Anyways i'd love to see this implemented into minecraft. :smile.gif:

Go check out some of my suggestions on my profile, in the about me tab!
It's a fun concept but execution is full of problems. The first one to come to mind would be that ice blocks are all source blocks of water so if you melt them with nearby torches you'll have a mountain of flowing water.
Sounds like it would be fun for minecraft if minecraft had better physics, but as the game stands I can't see this idea working.

Respond regardless.

I think I'm gonna go build some now, I like the idea...

I don't really see any good use for Icebergs so I'll have to pass on the idea.
