Cookies are, Quite frankly. Useless.

They're not worth the food ratio compared to other "Growables", You gotta grow 2 separate things, and each cookie gives you barely any hunger, So, Excluding as a collectible item, what's the point? You might as well grow bread!


I can fix this with a simple engine tweak!

A single cookie, currently takes as long to eat as a steak.

That doesn't make sense. Cookies are a snack food. I should be able to stuff 50 in my mouth at once.

So, here's the idea.

Give cookies a negligible eat time. eat them as fast as you can click.


This time,. Pvp Servers can give out rations that are instant. This way, you can pop a mouthful of cookies with the undead army pounding at your door. No cool-down!

Example Vid:



Insta-Cookies should be added to Minecraft!

Oh ­ Man.. You ate The CINNAMON ONES.

-- We have made it into Minecraft 1.7! --

My main goal with this post was to make the community interested in more biomes so that Mojang would prioritise that aspect in their busy schedules. And it seems we have finally made it happen! Additionally we also got 2 of my suggestions into the game, which of course is fantastic.

---------------------------------

Blossom Grove

Now put down your guard and enjoy the moonlight in this mob free but oh so rare environment. Unfortunately, the underground isn't as peaceful. If you are lucky you will also encounter a deserted old vineyard for some delicious grapes. This rare fruit replenish only 0,5 hunger each, but they are all eaten at the same time, making it the quickest but most expensive food source.

Rumours say the farmers have noticed crops grow faster.



Old version:

Oasis
Take your horse and embark on a journey to discover the Orient. These warm and barren deserts might contain a scarce amount of watering wholes, a common place to find various merchants with donkeys full of goods to trade. Make sure to have your wallet full, for these rare goods cannot be acquired elsewhere.




Fungi Biome
The luminescent mushrooms proves to be a perfect, yet mystique light source in the deep caves of the underworld. Rumours speak about small glowing angler-fishes that thrive in nearby underground lakes.

Thanks to Hansentale for the inspiration.




Tropical Islands
Palm trees grow on the beaches of these plant rich atoll islands located on the great oceans. Breaking palm leaves spawn coco nuts, which are an essential food source out here.




Savannah - IMPLEMENTED IN 1.7
In the never ending terrain of the African wilderness, animals thrive in the shadows of the acacia trees. Clay is commonly found in nearby watering holes.




Wild West desert - IMPLEMENTED IN 1.7
This arid landscape consists of a new reddish stone, and a new matching sandblock*. Lone wanderers need to watch out for the vultures, for they will attack any trespasser carrying raw meet.


*)The sandblock is not present in this screenshot since it's very time consuming covering the grounds.


Autumn forest biome
A colourful forest arises as you continue your exploration. No one in these woods will ever starve, as the ripest apples fall from the trees and the ground is covered by mushrooms galore!




Frost biome
A cold breeze caught the landscape by surprise, which immediately froze the tiniest straw of grass. Make sure you wear some armour, or you will soon be history.




Darklands

The sky darkens as you enter this gloomy realm. A great challenge awaits the one who seek to face the death. Now grab your diamond equipment, you will need it.

ModLoader 1.6.2
A mod, kind of like a mod manager, that stops conflicts with mods that alter rendering, recipes, add entities, gui, smeltables or fuel. If you're a modder, feel free to decompile this and learn how to make mods work with it. Inherit BaseMod and override any methods as necessary. The mod's main class file should be prefixed with 'mod_'. Read the Javadoc for information on methods available.

Elemental Arrows 1.6.2
The Elemental Arrows mod adds four new types of arrows; explosive arrows, fire arrows, ice arrows, and a joke weapon, egg arrows.. They are crafted the same way as normal arrows, but the head is replaced based on the element; gunpowder for explosive, coal for fire, snowball for ice, and egg for, well, egg. Crafting an explosive arrow only gives you one arrow, and it explodes upon impact. Crafting a fire arrow gives you one arrow, that will ignite stuff upon impact. Crafting an ice arrow gives you one arrow, that will freeze water into ice, lava springs into obsidian, put out fire, and break torches. Egg arrows spawn chickens upon impact with the ground, but there's a secret too. Lightning arrows strike lightning where ever they hit, use diamond in recipe. Homing bow recipe is same layout as regular bow, but diamond instead of sticks. Requires ModLoader 1.6.2.

Death Chest 1.6.2
When you die, if you have a chest in your inventory, it will be placed where you die, or in the closest available spot. The chest will be filled with as many items as possible. Items stored in the crafting slot are still lost, as usual, and any excess that won't fit in the chest will be dropped.

AudioMod 1.6.2(Not updated for now)
AudioMod is an upgrade of sorts, and a modder's utility. Included in this mod is CodecIBXM, created by Paul at www.paulscode.com, who is the creator of the sound system used in Minecraft. It allows Minecraft to play (in addition to ogg, wav, and mus files), xm, s3m, and mod files. The only readily available feature of this mod is the ability to add new music, however, it adds support for modders to add new records and sound effects. There is a slight increase in load time when using this mod. Using this, you can also use custom sounds, alongside the originals. Custom music and sound goes into the resources folder, music in mod/music. Custom sounds go into mod/sound. For example, if I were to add a new footstep sound effect to stone, I'd put the new stone1.ogg in mod/sound/step. In game, the new sound would occasionally be played, alongside the originals. Custom sounds for things like the menu click and water do not always work, at the moment.

Floodgate 1.6.2

Use the control block to open the GUI where you can place supporting blocks that will replace how the gate looks. Requires ModLoader 1.6.2.

Spawner GUI 1.6.2
Adds a GUI to all mob spawners, that will allow you to pick what mob to spawn. I also reallowed mining spawners. You can disable spawners with redstone aswell. Should be compatible with all mobs, but don't expect the mobs with special spawn conditions to work everywhere.

Bordering this lake you will find sand for water, or gravel for lava. Connecting each sphere is a wooden bridge with fence rail. Beside each sphere is a smaller sphere, which is where you will find diamond and lapis lazuli. These ores only occur here, the others are equally spread throughout the spheres. The cave generator used here is a modified Nether cave generator, where like on the surface, will generate lava below a certain level. if this lava reaches the outside, an obsidian wall will be made to hold it in.

I've seen two topics recently advocating for a tool, similar to sheers, that would allow you to renew ably extract feathers from chickens. This is appalling and wrong. Chickens, and indeed very few birds, can have their feathers removed without great pain, bleeding, infection, and death. Now I'm not a PETA moron; games are games and Mario does not advocate the death of endangered species. But I am an aspiring Engineer and I see that there is an underlying need here that's not being answered efficiently.

All these Topics cry out a feather deficiency:
Shearing for Feathers
Pluck-Able Chickens
More Feathers
A 'Practical' Use for Birds
Shearing Chickens!
Birds - Our New Feathery Friends?
MORE BIRDS!
Easier Way to Make Arrows
No-Kill Chicken Feathers
The Ability to Sheer Chickens
So let us assume that there is a legitimate need for obtaining more feathers. Obviously, if this is not the case, we don't need to change anything. You can argue we either need more feathers or don't, but if we need more feathers, there is a single solution.

The answer is simple, pure, easy-to-code, aesthetically pleasing, mechanical feasible, and short to explain:



It's simple - change the code specifying the number of feathers to have a greater quantity

It makes Sound, Logical Sense - A chicken in real life would probably drop dozens of feathers of a size and quality that could be used as a crafting material

It's Aesthetically Pleasing - Even the topic stating No-Kill Chicken Feathersargues that killing a chicken for two feathers seems cruel, they were so close to the answer. We aren't torchering chickens for renewable feathers, we are giving them a clean death for a reasonable amount of product.

It's Easily Adjustable - Too many feathers or too few? Future updates can easily dial down on the correct feather drop range to prevent it from being broken.

Additional Concept - 2/23/12
Suggested by a few posters including Nexus_Leonon, Chickens would have the ability to randomly Moult or drop a feather similar to how they currently produce eggs. I'm not fond of this idea however because it copies the otherwise unique mechanic held by the chicken and I feel that when a large number of chickens are breed it would lead to an overproduction of feathers without any cost (which is to say killing a chicken requires you to breed more with wheat while Moulting requires no input for output). Also, any feathers discarded in this fashion, in a real life situation, would never be used as arrow fletching because they would be damaged, old, decomposing, and asymmetrical.

Related, but Off-Topic Issue
I haven't updated the OP in a while and during that time a number of issues have been brought up as to why we would or wouldn't need more feathers. While this isn't the objective of my suggestion (which is "If we need more feathers, this is how to fix it"), I feel I should bring up these points to the OP so I don't feel like I'm repeating myself or more importantly, contradicting myself.
