well this is really pointless to put out but...
I found this cool way to get across water and i like to call it water skiping.

1st. you get a bunch of lily pads
2nd. you sprint towards a body of water
3rd. you look down and place lily pads while jumping.

its fast and fun at the same time.

Skiping? A cross between skipping and sniping?

no problem dude and thnx

O_O wow, I had no idea. My life is changed forever. I will now dedicate myself fully to mastering this new art.

I thought you couldn't walk on lily pads, I usually fall through them...

God, looks like somebody dropped a sarcasm nuke here >.>

Ah well, looks like a fun trick :tongue.gif:

lol i know right i excepted: oh... i found that out like 5 mins after the release...

Interesting...thought lily pads were just pointless 2D objects projected on the water.

You can place them directly on water now? I hadn't tried placing them lately, I thought they would need to be next to land or another lily pad to place still.

Suddenly, Nyan cat on water.

Not more than Launching atermelons and saying "Suddenly, Watermelons."
Hee He.Anyway, nice strong lilypads you got ther...
But it's no strong that my dragon egg!

I discovered this kind of thing in 1.6 - 1.8, but with blocks (obviously). However, I totally forgot about it. I'm glad that you reminded me of the fact that you're now able to walk on lily pads (edit: and the fact that you reminded me of the skidding thing again)! :smile.gif: +1

Oh, cool idea! *Going collect lily pads*

Sounds helpful to make efficient lily-pad bridge.
