"Finished" the map I have been working on. Feel free to test it out for me and report any errors or just give general feedback. Note that this map is fairly short and won't take too long to finish.

Thanks :P

-Intro-

You hear word of Wayhart Point a lively seaside town renowned for it's quality seafood and fishermen. As a trader you decide to travel there and exchange rare goods with the locals. Upon arriving however, you find the town deserted. There are no signs of life except from the occasional cow and sheep.

As you stand at the dock you wonder, what on earth has happened?

-Rules-

1.No breaking blocks except dirt and mossy cobblestone
2.No haxOrs
3.Have fun

Sweet. I'll make a video of my playthrough of it sometime tomorrow.

I’ve been able to focus on development a lot the last couple of weeks, and we’re hoping to get the new update out soon. It will include the wolves, the ability to change your spawn point, and a rather ambitious statistics tracking and achievement system. Once that update is out, we’ll spend some time figuring out exactly what to do with the modding, which should result in a nice modding API.

Also, work on MC for iOS was started. Let's see how this turns out.

As I understand the update and what Notch said about it, it mainly contain 3 things:

- The wolf mob (rare and tameable. I doubt there's 2 versions. If you craft a collar and put it on the wolfe, it's tamed, stays with, help you fighting and doesn't unspawn.)

- Stats and Achievements

- Last part of bed update (will now create a new spawnpoint when you use the bed)

It's pretty good!

Is it just me, or does anybody not want there spawn points changed?

I don't understand the bed update? New spawnpoint when you use the bed? I don't get it, your spawn point is randomly changed when you sleep or is it changed to the bed location? Anyway so this should be coming when?

[Kog]

Oh wow, that bed thing could really help me with my adventure map :O Then I could add in obstacles that could actually kill you without fear of making the people have to walk miles back.

And I guess I'll try out your adventure rseah >: o

So, Inanimacy apparently booby trapped my house and put TNT in our roads, and Whale finds it funny. Who wants to help me detonate the TNT safely? :L

how do you dentonate it Safely?

[rseah]

Those who try out my "adventure" keep in mind that it hasn't been tested too well. So please report any issues you have.

Cog you could make side passages couldn't you? So if you finished a challenge you can take that side passage to skip it to the next area?

[Testudini]

You can detonate TNT safely with obsidian. Also, he put TNT in the **** trees. It might have been Whale who did this.

[>er.]

how do you dentonate it Safely?

if a tnt block touches water while it's detonated it won't blow up the environment, however any nearby player or npc will still be hurt. also i think it can still detonate another nearby tnt block aswell...

or so i remember last time i played.

Ye, had something like this on my tree challenge thing, were once you get high enough you can open a door so you can skip back to that spot. But, in the challenge I'm thinking of, the place is really far away from spawn, so if there were passages to skip parts, you'd still have to go aaaaaalll the way back to main area of the challenge. Also, in my adventure, you need to collect golden blocks to get through a room, so I can't kill you in case you lose the blocks.

IF beds make new spawnpoints, then I'll definitely use them for checkpoints, and if they don't, I'll just make it so my challenges don't actually kill you.

As for your challenge, it was quite good, but I must say I got confused several times as I had no idea were I was supposed to go. In the end I just found some TNT and used that to blow a hole in the Elder hut, got the Z coordinate (the X I had already found), went to the location, entered the portal, and yeah. Was that supposed to be the end?

I think they will so that will probably make it a lot easier to make the challenges

Yes, the last bed you used will be your new spawnpoint. The update is rumored to be out later this week.

Its not a rumor, Notch said it on Twitter

[Kog]

I wonder how beds will work in multiplayer, if they even do change the spawns in multiplayer. Would they make it your specific spawn? Or everyones?

And, I've finished and spiced up the tree challenges:

I LOVE Minecraft! I've done tons of stuff in it, including a redstone counter, floating castle, rail station, pixel art, and even some fan art.

Anyways, I got so addicted to Minecraft that it pulled me away from LittleBigPlanet. I surprisingly barely even touched my copy of LittleBigPlanet 2. :P

And is there any way to get whitelisted for the server? :3 (if not you should have it so people have to apply to get on, then the application must be accepted.)

Your own spawn, of course. Think of it as a vanilla /sethome.

Cog, that looks EXTREMLY difficult! I might want to try it
