I really hope it allows for alternate inputs. I'd love to play this on my Acer A500, but with a controller or mini mouse / kb combo setup. The touchscreen would be great for interaction, but shite for movement.

But then you could probably just play it on a netbook and get the full deal :P
Minecraft mobile looks interesting but so far it only looks to be a glorified creative version.
BTW, someone started digging into my mountain... you know the one that was ringed with multiple rings of torches up the vertical cliffs and valleys... I that that would make it clear... but surely the huge holes i had been digging with tnt would do it...
Not upset at all.. in fact i've left tons of ore in the mountain for whoever wants it. but you might find the mountain missing some stone... i have been deboning it... you have to see it to understand...

Maybe, but I've found playing SNES roms on the tablet is soooo much nicer with an xbox controller. Touchscreens are nice for direct interaction, but the whole "onscreen joystick" idea (on any touchscreen) is kind of a joke unless it's a large, mounted setup.
[ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U0CKMBdx1RY[/ame] man this is look fun, i wish the server last longer once minecraft become gold release , so we have enough time to build decent stuff like them instead of frequent server reset >.<

Well, as long as there aren't major updates or technical issues, once the game's official there's no reason the server should be reset.
r13 - i dug a tiny dugout for protection in the 'torched' mountain near spawn - was only 5x3 blocks though, don't think it was me -
anyone tromped through the marsh area? not much out there so far..oh and I shotgun dungeon I found, I'm not equipped to take that challenge up just yet..
If you're referring to the marshes to the east, I travelled through that area a bit. I picked up a lot of clay from that area... and then lost it all when I died and drowned.
So much silly, there's actually part in there stating that notch mentioned in an interview where he and todd from bethesda spoke, that he loves elderscrolls and had played oblivion for over 80 hours, just so that the lawyers can show how mojang is set on abusing the elderscrolls name.
..Everything you say can and will truly be used...
well, anyways i pretty much hollowed out the entire mountain its pretty awesome. but becareful if you come looking for it. The place is now crawling with nasties since they have a tone of shade now. there's lots of holes in the roof so you can see easily enough getting around... its funny seeing giants under there... looking all small
i think it was eric c btw... i'll help whoever it was get started in a new mountain or an npc village. i've got one i walled all and lit.
ZacD: You dug right into my base! and my secret stash! and ruined my mechanics! But it's ok!
I will build a secondary tower that will connect your tunnel with the overseas railway to the east of my base. So you can just kick back and chill on my end of the tunnel and I'll take care of the rest.
To those who own the "Tunnel of love" I apologize for standing right outside of it, in the middle of the night and had creeper jump on me from above...the entrance of your "Tunnel of love" has blown up.
Sorry, again, let me know when you guys are on and if there is anything I can do to repay.
In the marsh area, I've discovered two mob spawners/dungeons - and have converted them into auto mob traps/items dispensers.
One is a skele mob spawner - good for bones and arrows
The other is a zombie mob spawner, good for...rotten meat
I've got to tidy it up and make it more accessible/fenced/labeled for travelers.
Oh and I also found a empty npc village in the marsh area as well - will tidy up and make safe (creepers have had a go by the looks of it) sometime tonight.
The map seems to update sometimes as soon as I'm making stuff, but I have other structures further out that haven't shown up. In fact, I have a mansion with a giant bridge to it with a mob trap next to it. All that show up but the mansion itself and part of the bridge. I like to think of it as a secret mansion.
the map updates based on where you are. it only renders out the section where people are. it might not render an area if you dont do anything there or you dont spend enough time there. I'm not 100% on its rules as there isnt much docs on it.
i did turn off entities as it was making the map super heavy. i need to turn them back on but manually turn off everything but players.
That would've been much helpful if I was on the map. xD I am across the sea somewhere on the island where I found the deep hole in the ground and 2 spawners.
Can I just ask that when the server goes to 1.9 to not have the creative mode turned on? It kinda cheapens the feel of the whole thing. Doing a 'FNG item drop' of iron / diamond tools and basic supplies is cool, but when you spend a lot of time on your place, and someone just whips up something huge next door from creative mode items, kinda ruins then fun. :P
I am having issues with my spawn trap. =\ I assumed it would work like you dig 3 rows down and fill it with water. Leave one piller with spawner on top but its not working.
flagg: i am sympathetic to your words. I didn't hand those out until it was determined that we were gonna need to wipe it again at 1.9. I figured, lets see what happens and handed them out to some of the regulars that i knew i could trust to at least not build giant penises.
When 1.9 hits, the server will be reset again so that we can take advantage of the new systems and creative mode will be striped.
Now that's not the final solution either.. there is multiworld mods ... like i could get one with a air world that you enter thru a nether-like portal.. i could say that the creative folks have to keep their endeavors in there...
i wanna find a solution to fit both, cause this is polycount... we gotta make some stuff. But I don't want to make folks trying to play by the rules to have giant hearts appearing in their skies either... not that they are bad.. just saying.

I need to get my tower going!

The plan now is to do another pre release of 1.9 this week. Yeah, it's a beta of a beta.

question - the map shows spawner icons - is that meaning spawners only on the surface (and neutral mobs like pigs?)
I was just making sure it wasn't something on my side

and and server appears to work again.
