    Well, I've got an idea, and I would try it, but for some reason my computer can't handle the pre-release. So somebody needs to try to place vines on a ledge, and then on the block below that put a piston, so when you push the piston it will chop the vines down. Someone try it and tell me if it works!


    It will chop the vines down, but you don't get any item drop. I don't think there's a single way to get vines, shears aren't working in pr2 for vines or grass.

    My mistake then, Phar, on the point of 2 or more of the same animal being in a chunk, you're wrong :tongue.gif:

    There, all sorted :biggrin.gif:


    Never tried that, so I'll admit there might be some fail-safe in there to pretend animals dying out, unless you kill them all.

    This is exactly what I was talking about 0.o or do I misunderstand what you're saying?
    and I don't think there was any flaming going on in this thread.


    He might be right tbh, there might be some breeding implemented, however not what it's supposed to be.

    Quote from renadi

    talking about logically, blending forests and deserts is not what I meant. Was referring to something actually resembling real larger biome blending, cold==>hot dry==>humid
    not cold and dry to humid and hot right next to eachother. or vice versa.


    Ah, I understand.

    Yeah, that is not a different biome, that is just some sand.
    and when notch has mentioned blending biomes, it was never said it was going to be in 1.8 even, just that eventually that would be something he'd look into.


    Biomes are blended right now where they meet.

    nope, someone did a test and animals can respawn but if you wipe them all out they don't, some pseudo breeding through spores or something? guy did a study on it in one of these threads, that's if he's to believe.


    I wonder what his parameters were. I've had specific numbers of animals in different areas for well over a month in game time, and they've never bred. Ever. Nor have they ever despawned. I'm sure there's persistent spawning without breeding, like 92-96%. Hopefully Jeb makes a statement on it.

    Quote from claivin

    What? Buildings are still capped at 128? (on vanilla, of course)
    D: That's disappointing.

    Now you have me wondering, though. What is the max height for flight?


    I'm at 1100 right now going up. Around 800 all chunks went away and there's a sun in the night sky. But yeah, buildings are still capped at 128. I'm assuming you read the tumblr thing by Notch when he experimented putting the max height to 512. Looked really cool, was hoping he would do it.

    Quote from claivin

    I tried going to "the top", eventually reaching 1000 Meters altitude, before getting bored.
    I read the stickied threads and there's no other info other then that its been raised to 512, which I've already passed.
    I've also Googled it, but got no (relavent) results.
    Anyone know?


    Huh? If you're talking about flying, I don't believe there's a max height. If you're talking about building, it's still 128.

    Squids have always been a little off, and the other animals are all persistent, and will respawn if there are 2 or more in a chunk, but it's sorta dodgy.


    Will? Assuming you mean won't?

    I honestly have no idea how the squid got through it. I wasn't watching when it went through the canals; I saw it go into the entrance of the canals and found it laying in my farm at the exit of the canals some time later. :/


    Haha, might've spawned in the top canal. Going to test it out though, thanks for the idea :smile.gif:
