    started up a fresh SP while I wait for an updated server. No more floating leaves! looks like the gradually despawn when you harvest a tree trunk

    Haven't they pretty much done that for a while now? I know sometimes they despawn slowly.

    Leaves have always behaved the same way in both single and multi.

    If any wood blocks remain, most leaves will remain.

    If all wood blocks are chopped out, all leaves will slowly despawn.

    If the leaves are connected to the ground or the leaves of another tree, they will also remain. (Pretty sure...)

    Ahh, guess he just sped it up, now I see them despawning before I can finish chopping it

    Meh, I'd rather you be able to build a hyper-dense iron block that your compass always points to, or something.

    What multiplayer server are we messing around on?

    Hmm, Zetx's sever is outdated now. Do we know what we are doing with the new server? Are we going to no spawning in items, because I am totally in favor of that.

    Yeah it's been there for a while, and I'm all for a pure server too. Only thing that sucks is buckets don't work yet.

    Another secret friday update, yay!

    A compass, that's pretty neat. I wonder what the second single player update was. Apparently not an item/block

    It had been fixed with 1.0.17_04, if you used persister to run the game it probably didn't upgrade the _02 version.

    Edit: oh nm, you meant the durability, derp.

    Well technically you can burn creepers to death, which would possibly net you gunpowder. But it's still going to be a chore since fire does a lot less damage and is hard to manage without setting those green bastards off.

    Damnit. On the off-chance that the other secret is something that would show up in a new world, I made one. Didn't see anything, what I did see is a world that its about 1000 times cooler than the world I've spent the past few weeks on. :(

    According to Notch's twitter, the compass is the only new craftable thing in the update. The other part of the secret update is something else.

    Player damage isn't implemented yet, so no matter what setting you're on, they won't hurt you.

    Yet.

    Once someone gets a server up, I would love to play on it it.

    PM me if its to keep a secret server.

    I would set my own up, but my internet connection is pretty terrible.

    So apparently a bucket of lava can act as a fuel source for a furnace. It smelts 100 blocks but then you lose the bucket as well.

    I'd still rather go with coal...

    i wish that the fire lasted just a little longer than 8 blocks, cause i hate hate hate doing anything not in multiples of 8

    and don't get me started on things that you can't stack, its impossible to get 8 out of a coal with those

    Huh, I did not know that.

    And yes, lava is too precious a resource to be wasted on smelting. I mean it's not like coal is scarce or anything :P

    Lava a precious resource? No way, I never use the stuff. This will totally replace wood and coal as fuel.

    It depends on whether you can scoop up lava aside from source blocks, I forget. I don't think lava can be made infinite like water can.

    But I've seen other people complain that the iron for the bucket is a pretty precious resource to waste too. It costs 3 units that have to be themselves smelted...3 units of coal is 24 smeltings alone, and it's much more plentiful to mine.

    when you find lava waterfalls you can only scoop up the source block, but I THINK you can scoop up lava from pools of lava that people normally find diamonds near

    I started a new world and it's gorgeous, with tons of mountains and caves. I'm currently building my house on top of a cave right by a lava waterfall.

    How does these damn animals sneak inside my house?! I end up beating them all to death.
