    posted a message on Discussion - Is Minecraft hard to learn?

    As someone who has been playing for over half of the history of Minecraft, I still find it slightly annoying that I need to look something up on the wiki every 30 minutes. However, I think the only way to fix this is removing a few blocks and entities, which I definitely do not want.

    After many hours of name tagging creepers, I finally got a few charged ones. Thanks to everyone who helped me.

    Quote from Mr_N_Derman»

    As for the pit idea, why not have several larger pits. As they fill with mobs, use an invisibility poition to enter the pits and name tag the creepers without them detecting you. Over time you will get the other mobs despawn but the creepers will not. Obviously you'll need quite a few tags, but once you get one a CC in one of the pits, wiat for a skeleton to spawn in it, kill any other mobs so you only have the skelly and the CC and effect the detonation...


    If I'm not digging small pits, why do I need pits at all? Maybe I should just fence off a big field, name tag all the creepers in the field, and kill the other monsters. Eventually I should have so many creepers that all monsters stop spawning.

    posted a message on Fastest way to get a skeleton skull in 1.12

    I'm playing 1.12, and I just want one skeleton skull. I already tried digging 80 holes, putting one creeper in each hole, and waiting for lightning to hit one of them, but it turns out that pushing 80 creepers into holes without exploding any of them is very difficult and frustrating. Do any of you know any easier or faster ways?


    Yes I know that 1.12 is the version right before channeling. No I still refuse to update. I like my item ID numbers.

    posted a message on How can I summon ghast fireballs that move more than 10 meters?
    Quote from YMbrothers»

    Your power is too high. It's an acceleration rather than a velocity. So I assume when you see it move like 10 blocks, it already moved like 100 blocks and the game's too lazy to render it.


    Set it maybe 1/10 of the number of direction.


    power:[0.0,-0.0625,0.0] works. Thanks.

    posted a message on How can I summon ghast fireballs that move more than 10 meters?

    execute at @e[type=armor_stand,name=ArmorStand11,limit=1,sort=random] run summon fireball ~ ~-1 ~ {direction:[0.0,-1.0,0.0],power:[0.0,-1.0,0.0],Life:4096,ExplosionPower:1}


    I have a bunch of armor stands. Every time I run this command, I want to pick a random one and make it summon a ghast fireball. The fireball should move down if it doesn't hit some entity or block that's not air. When I try running it, none of the fireballs can move more than 10 or 11 meters. They just move downward for a brief time and then explode in mid-air.

    Quote from Hexalobular»

    I'm not sure, but crops may need an air block above them to grow, that is, the ceiling might have to be 2 blocks above the dirt.



    My own tests and the wiki both say that crops can still grow if they have glass immediately above them.

    Quote from Hexalobular»

    the question is how you stop them from spawning on the inside,


    Yes, that is the real problem.

    My current plan is using stone slabs for all my floors, because I'm pretty sure no mobs can spawn on a stone slab if the slab is in the bottom half of the block space. Then my problem is that I want to grow carrots for my villagers. If I put glass directly on top of the carrots, will that guarantee nothing spawns on my farmland while also letting the carrots grow and letting the villagers harvest them?

    Also what determines the spawn point of iron golems? Do they need 4 opaque blocks with 12 air blocks above? Up to how far away from the bell can they spawn if there are no possible spawn points near the bell?

    Do the monsters in sieges or raids have any spawn requirements other than an opaque block with 2 air blocks above? Do they spawn regardless of light? What's the best way to illager-proof a door while still letting villagers use it whenever they want?

    posted a message on Do phantoms randomly despawn or no?

    One possible explanation is that phantoms fly in circles, so they get close to the player more often than the mobs that stand still. I think this makes the phantoms less likely to despawn.

    Quote from karrotcake2»

    As all mods they do de-spawn if you are far away or wait until the sun de-spawns them


    Are you sure their despawning behavior is identical to those of other monsters?
