If most people in this section are experienced, why do I see "help where do I start"/"help what did I do wrong" threads a lot? Some people are here to learn.
Those people are here to get help in their thread, not to browse and critique other ones, usually. You're certainly correct for some cases. It's really just up o you to decide if those cases are enough. I was only trying to provide you with sufficient information in order to decide that.
Do you know this thread is better than any you have ever created and that this post is almost as useless as you are but not quite as bad??
I think what he may have meant to say was that most people in the Redstone section of the forum are quite experienced with Redstone, and something that doesn't add to what many people here expect to see (innovative redstone) might not be placed in the correct section. May I suggest relocating to a section where your tutorial skills or introduction of less advanced concepts may be better appreciated?
I have an idea for a simple, yet very useful mod. It would only add one block: the Blower.
Crafting:
[Cobblestone] [Cobblestone] [Cobblestone]
[Cobblestone] [Gold Ingot] [Cobblestone]
[Cobblestone] [Cobblestone] [Cobblestone]
It would blow an air current in front of it when powered. The length of the air current is equal to the strength of the signal. For example, a full strength signal would make a current that is 15 blocks long, but a signal strength of 4 would make a air current that is 4 blocks long.
The Blower Block could face any direction, including up and down.
This air curren would be able to push players, mobs, items, and minecarts. Let me know if I need to add any more detail and if you think this is a mod you would like to create. Thank you in advance.
I'm excited for the update on this awesome mod. Do you think that it is possible to include some of the ideas from this thread in your Fan Block in some future update? I think that would really improve the mod, and I'd be very eager to use it.
This is a very cool mod; nice job.
One of my favorite mods is Tinkers' Construct, and that mod page said that this mod improved upon that one. While both are magnificent, can you explain why these mods are best together? They seem to be completely distinct and without connection to each other.
If I had to pick one block to add to the game, then this would be it. Well done. If you (or someone else) make a banner, I'll wear it.
Does anyone know of a mod that adds this? If so, it will be one of the only mods I use.
A Few Things:
1. Lapis is useless too
2. I don't think the regular glass texture looks bad, but i like the soul sand's glass look better
3. I think someone has submitted this before
4. If 3 isn't true, I support!
1. That is a very valid point. It has a use, but that use is extremely small.
2. That's exactly the point. It isn't necessary, but definitely helpful.
3. I searched quite extensively, but couldn't find any similar topics. There were many that incorporated parts of this suggestion, but not enough to fill the same thread.
4. Thanks for the [conditional] support. Hopefully, I didn't accidentally create a duplicate topic.
Minecraft has few useless blocks; every block seems to have its niche. Other than Gravel and Lapis, however, Soul Sand is perhaps the only block that is almost never used. While it slows down mobs, this is almost never desirable. It is used to plant Nether Warts, but that means the player uses no more than a stack of Soul Sand in there entire world.
Currently, Glass has a very undesirable texture. It isn't completely transparent, and the player's vision is very heavily obstructed:
I propose that smelting Soul Sand makes Soul Glass (You can also use this Soul Glass to make Soul Glass Panes). These would have a slight reddish-brown exterior, but that exterior only covers the outside boundary:
My texture editing skill is not nearly good enough to show how the boundary changes. Imagine a window where the inner region is completely clear, even between blocks.
TL;DR: Smelt Soul Sand to create prettier Glass and Glass Panes.
Advantages:
More aesthetically pleasing alternative glass texture.
Adds a use for Soul Sand.
Incentive to explore the Nether more.
Feel free to add any you come up with.
Disadvantages:
Feel free to add any you come up with.
Don't forget to vote in the pole and give me any feedback you have on this idea.
Honestly, I couldn't care less about the horses. Donkeys, on the other hand, make me extremely excited. I can't wait to be able to carry around more items while being on a faster mount. Is there any advantage to having a Horse rather than a Donkey, or for that matter, a Mule instead of a Donkey?
