Okay, this has probably already been mentioned before, that there is a bug with dying in multiplayer.
I died, typed in /spawn, logged out and back in, still considered dead by the game: i.e., I can't pick anything up, and I occasionally turn invisible to the other players (I am 100% certain that it is the death causing that, because when the person who was hosting this server got an unofficial patch, she found I was at -149 health the first time, she reset me back to full health with an editor, and suddenly everything works again normally).
However, instead of just whining about this problem, I would like to make a suggestion for a temporary small patch for this problem.
Until this bug is taken care of properly, can we make all the food in the game just instantly set the health to full? Instead of coding it to do +2.5 health of whatever, just make it say health=10.
I don't know how Java works, but I'm pretty certain that it would not be hard at all tochange the code to a "set equal to" value instead of an addition. After the bug is fixed, just switch it back to the old way.

Really though, thanks a lot Notch.

Few months ago in MP water was glitchy, redstone didn't work, trees were wonky, etc. Few months before that we didnt even have MP.
How far we've come with our sole programmer
