Have you noticed how hard it is to use the current ladders? You have to be facing them to use them and you have to actually FACE up or down to go in that direction. Also, if you break the block the ladder is on, it disappears. Get ready for...
New Improved Ladders!!!
Here are some ideas that would help us out:
*New ladder maneuvering: Instead of the current system, you use spacebar to go up and shift to go down (similar to flying). If neither button is pressed, you stay in the same spot. This makes mining on ladders easier. :biggrin.gif:
*Ladders don't require a block to exist: When you place a ladder, it will attach to a block, but if you break the block it won't fall as an item.
*Torch + Ladder: You should be able to have a torch across from a ladder. Dark 1x1 tunnels don't work, and it is a bit tedious to try to build alcoves just to place a torch.
If you have any other ideas, put them here.
If more than 25 people like this post, I will contact Jeb.
I had the same idea but was too lazy to post this... I guess the best thing to do is to say that I like this idea. But instead of it being a torch in the lader how bout you craft it with glowstone dust?
I actually wasn't thinking of a crafting recipe, but that would actually be pretty cool!
It would only be possible with a crafting recipe. Torches and ladders both ocuppy a full block space. So to put both togheter Jeb would need to tweak the whole physics of the game.

No, actually he would only need to tweak the ladder, so that it becomes a block-dependent entity.

As for the mod idea, I have no knowledge over Java programming.
