morganl32 posted a message on Sticky railwell, basically its just a rail covered in a slime ball. How does it work? Its a rail that can stick to walls :laugh.gif: .Posted in: Suggestions
to create this you only need a rail and a slime ball.
lets just pretend the diamond is a slime ball and the stick is a rail. :happy.gif:
also, it might be a possibility to make it like if you ride on the wall for too long you will fall of from gravity.
feel free to leave suggestions around this idea, or leave some pictures of what you think it should look like! :tongue.gif: -

See, unless the mech were made out of rolled-up newspapers, toilet-paper tubes and bits of string it probably wouldn't have taken all that much damage from the explosion.
You've got something that is, in execution, both a weapon and a suit of armor. Now, I don't know what that means to you, but keep that in mind. -

Mojango posted a message on Inventing the [square] WheelThere have been several posts that immediately discarded this idea because wheels are round. Surely this means there are several readers who have done likewise but not commented. I implore you to read the entire post and open this post by saying this: The wheel would only be round in the inventory. Any model showing a wheel would have that wheel be square.Posted in: Suggestions
If you still are not convinced, redpine has brought up quite the valid point. Snowballs, slimeballs, ghastballs, and records are all circular! :tongue.gif:
I think Minecraft is missing two important things. A way to carry more items and an alternate source of string. My proposed solution for these problems comes in a circular form.
Yes a wheel! It would not take much resources but would then be used in other crafting recipes, like the following.
I imagine the wheelbarrow would look similar to this:
Ahaha! Yes a square wheel. XD I think it would look both awesome and hilarious, especially when it begins to spin. Anyhow, the wheelbarrow would be a vehicle controlled much like a boat. You would have the option to hold shift to pivot the wheelbarrow about on a fixed axis. While manning the wheelbarrow you would not be able to jump, that means anywhere you want to use a wheelbarrow must be accessible via stairs, half-blocks, or just plain old flat ground.
You would also not be able to craft while using a wheelbarrow, your hands are full. Instead you would see this:
Using the wheel you would also be able to make a Spinning Wheel!
I picture something similar to this being placed like any other block:
This would finally give a use to wool and allow players to make string. The Spinning Wheel would only work while you are interacting with it and would convert one block of wool to nine pieces of string. Right clicking on the Spinning wheel would give you a screen like the next picture. Several people have posted that they feel 9 string is way too many to be receiving from one piece of wool. Many have also posted that they think the player should not be able to make string at all. The number is variable and ultimately would be the choice of Notch. There has been a suggestion I would like to mention however. Mystify has suggested that there be a division made between string and spider silk. Depending on which you used it would alter the quality of the item in the same way that a diamond sword is better than a wooden sword.
Problems?
"I am not comfortable with circles..." Don't worry, its only like that in the inventory. Any model in game would have a square shaped wheel :biggrin.gif:
"This changes the whole value of string. It is supposed to be difficult to get. Players have to hunt down spiders for it. It makes a bow very valuable." Alright lets examine this for a second. Minecraft is based more or less on real life. String is a very very basic commodity. Ancient civilizations made it all the time. You do not have to kill a deer and rip out its tendons to make string, though that is a viable option. People have been making lashings for millenniums. Now for the second part of that. A Spinning Wheel still requires a string to make it, so a player will have had to kill some spiders to get it. String becomes a much more easily obtained resource, but you do still need to have killed a spider or two to get it. Happy?
"Now wait a minute! What is a player to do with all the string that will suddenly become available to him?" This is the part I like. String suddenly becomes as common and an item as wood, and could become as crucial, leaving Notch plenty of room to expand the tech-tree of crafting. I know many players have really been wanting to see ropes. Players could create a loom to convert string into cloth; and from there? Sails, bags, more decor like clothing, curtains, rugs.
"This still leaves the players with a lot of string and not much to do with it. How do you propose to fix that?" Simple, Redstone. Redstone is an endgame item that has incredible uses. If you have the resources to acquire redstone, you are going to have the resources to make string. Now many of you are not going to like this, but hear me out. Redstone in dust form can no longer be used as wire. Instead, players will actually make wire. With increased discussion on this topic, I think having dust and wire coexist would be the preferable choice.
"Are you mad?! Why would you compound the cost of redstone?! It will break all my existing machines too! Burn him!" No no no no, Perhaps we can leave the dust as an option. I do not like that idea as much but its not my call. My suggestion is that all redstone 'wire' that is already placed will become the new redstone wire. "Ha, but that is similar to giving players hundreds of strings." Yes well, they would have had the strings before if the Spinning Wheel had been implemented earlier. "I am still not convinced. Why make redstone more difficult to use?" Ah, now we come to the exciting part. The new redstone wire, would be wire, not dust. In this way you could put wire on walls and ceilings! :biggrin.gif: I love this idea. It means a lot of work for Notch, but hey, its his job isn't it?
"Why would I make a wheelbarrow when I can make a minecart and put a chest in it. Geez! This is already in the game." No its not! I should smack you people! Minecarts take iron, and the tracks take even more. Not only that but if you wish to travel with your goods, it takes another cart and likely another propulsion system... or you could use the glitch to have them propel each other.. but that would take twice as much track, and therefor iron! This is not a minecart copy! Comparing the two is ridiculous. Stop the ridiculousness. Stop it now.
Any more questions? Ridicule? Comments? Concerns?
Also! If we ever want this to reach the eyes of we are going to have to make this thread well known. If you are reading this and like the idea of it, post something! Even if it is as simple as.
"I think this would be a great addition to the game. Please add this Notch!"
Try to keep the thread alive!
Also! ...again. I made a little banner. If you could put it in your signature it would help spread knowledge, and hopefully support, about the wheel in Minecraft.

zet088 posted a message on Creeper Plush ToysThis is what I don't get, right?Posted in: Discussion
As of the 25th Feburary, 1,393,209 people have purchase the game, at roughly $15 each. ( I know it hasn't always been that. )
But for argument sake, it has. So that's $20,898,135 (roughly) that has been made all together.
Now, if Mojang were to invest $100,000 to get 50,000 creeper plush toys made which is dirt cheap, they could sell them for $25 a pop to every nerdy Minecraft fan out there, and make another $1,250,000.
Obviously they would sell more, considering almost one and a half MILLION people have purchased the game.
This is some serious cash they'd be making, and keeping ALL of their loyal fans happy.
I'd do it myself if it wasn't breaking copyright.

Firehazurd posted a message on Octopus -=- [MOB Suggestion](Custom Graphic)New Mob Idea: OctopusPosted in: Suggestions
Environment: Aquatic
AI: Non-Hostile, attempts to flee when attacked and squirts cloud of ink that cannot be seen through (perhaps a four block area around the octopus)
Drop: Ink (Possibly gathered with bucket)
Misc: Rarer natural spawn. Found in isolation.
I imagine this creature being a non-hostile mob, obviously aquatic, probably rare and even rarer to find several in the same place. They could drop ink, which could be used for all kinds of things *cough*cartography*cough.*
Plus, they're damned cute!
Comments welcome.
Variant: Giant Octopus
Environment: Aquatic
AI: Hostile, Territorial. Perhaps if it gets too low on health, it will attempt to flee with a similar ink method as the normal octopus.
Drop: Ink (Possibly gathered with bucket)
Misc: Rarer natural spawn. Found in isolation.
Whipped this bad boy up with a simple geometry and texture change. Lemme know what you guys think. Hopefully it will appease those looking for a more dangerous aquatic foe.
Variant: Invisible Octopus
Environment: Aquatic
AI: Non-Hostile, remains hidden disguised as a block of material until attacked. Which point it flees some distance and assumes another disguise.
Drop: Omni-Ink (Possibly gathered with bucket), ink that can assume the color of any other object it is paired with (could be an extremely rare, but good way to get varying ink colors that usually require crushing up a bunch of a material)
Misc: Extremely rare. Found in isolation.
This guy can land on a block, be it sand, rock, dirt or whatever, and turn into a copy of that block with little eyes. At which point it just sits there stationary. If you inadvertently try to mine the "octo-block," the mob freaks out and rapidly turns back into it's natural form and speeds off, startling the player to hell and back.
Marvel at my illustration!
Got inspiration for this variant from this video

Hey, we are you going to put them, in your pocket?
They may slime rape you if you put them straight into your pants without some means of storage. - To post a comment, please login.

Spiders should face the surface they're climbing on, and have an animation for when going from surface to surface.

You could place this block in your house, and sync it with a jukebox somewhere else. You could create a radio station that everyone would use this block to listen to. Or, you could place this block in all the rooms in a large building, letting you listen to the song in all rooms in your house.
I'm still not sure what this block should be called, so if you have any ideas please tell me.

All mojang staff get an exclusive cloak.
People who attend minecon get a cloak.
Special Achievments get you a cloak.
Achievments should also be stored online. It's pretty nutty when I go on a diffrent computer and I gain the achievment again.

Each user would be given a user code, which identifies who they are. The user code is different for each person. This way, your username can be anything you want(minus profanity).
The login system will ask you for your user code, as well as your username and password.
When the cursor is moved over someone ingame, their user code shows up.
I know this will be difficult to implement, so to make the mojang staff's lives easier, I've already come up with a way to do this without interfering with everyone's accounts.
First, everyone who has a minecraft account will be assigned their user code.
Then, after all the user codes are assigned, they start being required on the login screen.
Finally, usernames will become changeable, allowing people to have number free usernames.
Don't worry about two people having the same username in a ban list or op list. Those would simply require the user code instead of the username.
As an alternate method, people could just be given nicknames that show up instead of usernames.
Please vote in the poll, if your unsure about something then post it below.
If you like the idea and want it implemented, please help by trying to get this to any of the mojang staff. I would be truly happy if my idea were to make into the real world.
Also, if someone could make a banner for me, that would be great. Thanks!

But it's difficult to create the unknown when so many people on the internet can dig up so much information. So what's my solution? make it's attacks completely random. Sure, you could dig up information on what it looks like, how much damage it does, or what loot it drops, but you could never know when it attacks.
You could either become paranoid, constanly preparing for the day it does attack you, or relax, and be unperpared for the day it comes. Both result in fear.
