    posted a message on Max distance between torches to prevent mob spawn?
    17 would be optimal,or so it would seem. Unfortunately torch light is not square, it is a diamond shape.
    So you need to work out a pattern. Not just place them 17 blocks apart.
    And i believe mobs do not spawn on doors.

    posted a message on BUCKETS!
    I was thinking about what I couldn't do in Minecraft but would be really useful,and moving water is one of those things.
    I just thought it would be nice if we could use buckets to move water.

    It would allow you to more easily drain lakes and make elevated ponds and things. And put out lava without completely flooding the cave (!!!) Perhaps you could also put out fire with it.

    And you could put it in the furnace and boil away all the water too,so you could drain lakes and things more easily.
    Theoretically,a bucket would hold one unit of water,and stack with other buckets when empty. But not when it has water in it. Like the mushroom soup and bowls.

    The bucket would also make growing crops easier by allowing you to make an elevated farm instead of forcing you to grow all your plants on the ground.

    Perhaps you could also use a bucket to move gravel more easily and not find flint in it?
    Or carry alot of meat (cooked and/or raw?) all stacked up in the bucket?

    With or without those extra functions the bucket would be an excellent add in for Minecraft and I fully support this idea and i feel it would improve Minecraft and the game play experience a good deal.

    -Cheers.
