I will try it that. I haven't tried building a bridge without some sort of flying ability, but will try what you suggested.
It's pretty foolproof. Just be sure to sneak/crouch, which will prevent you from walking off the block you're standing on (except on stairs, so be careful there). This allows you to move safely out far enough to see the edge of the block you are standing on, which allows you to attach another block to it, and move out onto that one. Rinse, repeat. You can basically build a bridge while standing on it.
I finally saw a slime underground. I have a huge network of underground mine shafts, and as i was cruising along out came a slime. My first slime ball.
I noticed something odd last night regarding renaming items in an anvil.
I had three maps -- two copies of my home map, and one copy of the map to the south, all named "Map". I renamed both the home maps to "Home", and wanted to name the south map "Home S1" but it won't let me rename that one. I have plenty of experience (the first two cost 5 levels each, and I have 41 levels left) but it still won't let me rename it. The arrow has a big red X over it. Any ideas why I wouldn't be able to do this, when I was able to rename the others? Is this a bug?
This is the "empty chest" bug that has been plaguing the XONE version for a while now. A fix for this is currently part of the next patch, which I believe has already been sent for certification. It's the first item listed in the patch notes here.
Fix for tile entities not being saved correctly in unloaded chunks. (Empty Chests, Spawners turning into Pig Spawners, etc.)
The chicken count seems somewhat wonky, as people have posted in other threads (such as the bug reporting thread). I can't seem to find any rhyme or reason to the limit, but it';s very low for me -- around 5 or 6. Others have had slightly higher, but it all seems artificially low. I've even slaughtered all of my other livestock (~40 or so at once) and it didn't make a difference, so I don;t think it's the entity cap. Hopefully 4J is looking into this, although it wasn't mentioned in the notes for the next patch.
For those who don't know, There is a bug fix in certification. that should address most of the issues already mentioned.
The list of fixes is here. Unfortunately, I don't see a change in the chicken population limit. But very much looking forward to some of these others (particularly the empty chest fix).
In another instance, I had collected a stack of 40 mushrooms from a mushroom biome, and transferred them with a few other things to a chest with quick move. I went to do some quick farming, and when I came back, the stack was gone. Other stacks I had moved at the same time were there, but the mushrooms stack was gone. Not in my inventory, or anywhere else. It just disappeared.
Ignore this, I found the mushroom stack. It was in a different chest. Totally my mistake, sorry for the false report.
Chicken limit is ridiculously low most of the time, but seems to fluctuate between 4-6 allowed for me.
Someone mentioned that this might be the entity limit, so I tested it by slaughtering all of my livestock except chickens (~30 or so) and it still didn't increase the chicken limit. I couldn't get more than 6-8 chickens without getting the max number message.
I have 4-5 dogs and they are all parked at my house, but every now and then one will pop up next to me when I'm out in the world far from home.
There's definitely something weird going on with this. I've only ever tamed 3-4 wolves. In fact, I still don't have the achievement for taming 5 wolves. But at one point I had nearly 10 tames wolves sitting at my house. As part of testing the livestock entity limit, I killed ~3 of them. Next time the chunk loaded, I didn't have any left at all. It's like I had multiple copies of the same wolves.

That bug was fixed in the last update, I believe. I have map on my wall from another area and after the update it now fills in correctly.
