No one said we need other ways. I made this thread to ask why we are only spawning south (or north, as it turned out to be). And I got my answer so I guess this thread is done.

Problem solved then.

some people like the kid not me but some and then it wouldent be enough punishment or annoyance

You need an axe to make the basic planks, then you use some nails with an hammer and you have your station. Or if you don't like this, use a stone, like the anvil.

You actually cracking logs on bigger logs with the axe. You don't do it on the table because this table wears out extremely fast this way. To use saw properly with the table you need to attach vise-grip to it.

North is to your right when you watching the sunset. Why would you need other means to tell this?

Yes!

Perhaps regaining consciousness, and a droopy face (not a pumpkin ) that takes some time to restore to normal.

This could be only if the player has a bed and spawns from it's new location.

But how do you make carpenter station in the first place? And if anything, axe is not the tool you using for carpentry - saw and jack-plane are. So, no planks untill you get your first metal tools or what?

You can enable iron recipes in config file. That way you can get vanilla iron by placing wrought iron ingot in crafting grid and craft with it. In SMP recipes required to be turned on both on server and client for it to work.

Try asking Bioxx

Is this a bragging thread?

On our last map just under our keep we struck about 3000 units of bituminous coal and readings of lignite somewhere nearby in the ravine from one side and about the same size of a vein of sphalerite, clustered with strings of magnetite and lemonite. Zipping here and there I catched very diffused vein of tetrahedrite, so we went on a hunt for tin and although we didn't find many, the same evening we were smithing steel - on the second IRL day of the map's life. Other "tribes" didn't seem to made it past tier 0 metals at that point. We actually vaguely swiped around 2 square kilometers to make that happened, but still I find it very lucky.

I've been shamed by Dunk in these forums for suggesting the same, so my knowledge would tell me you are incorrect.

Sure you kind of need to scrap most of your minecraft knowledge, but I can tell you for a fact, that back in Minecraft beta 1.5, when I first started playing survival, I actually expected things to be done the way TFC does it.

You want hardcore - you're playing hardcore. There's nothing stopping you nor others to play hardcore in TFC.

TFC is not supposed to be difficult or hardcore. At least to my knowledge.

You play the game and get a ton of iron, so when you lose your iron armor you would rather just make new armor instead of running down into a cave to get your old armor back.

Well, not that many, because I prefer not to die, but I do this every time I die. But still, now you have the challenge to get whatever the hell you died in less than five minutes. If inventory got wiped, there won't be any of that anymore. And can you explain please why exactly it gets wiped? I know just so many things that can destroy an item and zombie is not one of them.

I don't like clearing inventory too, for the same reason basically.

Besides, what do you mean when saying I don't care about my steel gear that I lost in accident involving several stupid chains of reaction?

I guess, I'll try to post some ideas I have.

This involves corpses mechanic. Let's all have our own corpses, I say (except for zombies, nobody likes them anyway. And skeletons. Possibly creepers as well). So what happens when you kill a cow? It leaves a corpse behind, which you can cut to get meat, that's boring part. Now, when you leave corpses laying around they can walk away by themselves. Or bite you couple of times, whatever.

But what if you get killed? You leave corpse too. And it can walk by itself too. Although it burns with rage and from anyone it will pick you to get killed first (but if it can't it will find someone else), it won't burn in sunlight. It wears your armour and uses your tools and weapons (if you had one on you) and breaks them Very quickly. If you kill it you can have your stuff back, but you can't destroy a corpse. You can prevent any corpse from walking away by surrounding it with blocks. Although if you will ever try to destroy any block surrounding its grave - it will attack you immediately.

Now, I don't know as to how good it actually can be in terms of slapping players for dying, but you will be able to build a nice graveyard.

Sorry, I don't understand this. Can you explain how it would hurt?

Or do you just mean how it would destroy resources faster?

With 59, I couldn't make a meal with just 2 ingredients (pork and steak). I had to be either 3 or 4. Not sure if this is on purpose.

Now I remember back when new world height was implemented we were spawning in a cave at about hundred twenty height or so. There was three or four people at the moment. And fighting off zombies and such we clawed our way up to the surface. This was long before bioxx buffed stone hardness though.

you can find Onyx crystals there, which are otherwise unobtainable

4) XP should be renamed to better fit this purpose. More of an aesthetic touch than anything else, really :

But that way it can die. And if it doesn't die, thorns regrow.

And do thorns really regrow? I don't want to test it with my little one, he's not even rooted firmly yet.

Living in a cactus...looooooool

XP is now used to boost health, food, and thirst bar max. So, using XP breaks that.

The problem I see with surface roots, is in the real world roots grow down first. when they cant anymore(stopped by rocks) THEN they grow outwards. THis brings up the issue on generation where dirt layer is MUCH deeper in one spot then another.

working with copper for so long eventually leads to understanding bronze.

1). When is the last time you went underground and mined ore and smelted it into Iron? have you ever harvested Hemlock? In what part of the plant would you get the seeds from? You can actually eat a puffer fish... but if you dont know what you are doing you could poison yourself and die.

Same thing with others. If you spent time collecting roses, do you get to know where Hemlock seeds are? If you catch thousand goldfish, do you get to know that puffer is poisonous? I bet you should try to eat it first or feed it to someone.

Why is killing any creature in any game going to put more blood in anyone's body (HP) so they can take more of a beating?

Now imaging a full set of plate armor. Ever been on the back of a Nisean Horse in metal armor? I would have trouble soiling myself properly in a set of plate armor honestly. It takes work, study, and dedication to not just wear a set of armor, but acclimating oneself to use it in combat (balance, stepping, etc...)

Yeah i read about the crypts he intend to add. shortly after i made this thread so might do a little editing on my post there.

Well if he's looking for a place to put trolls i can happily say that as long as they turn to stone in sunlight they should automatically put themselves right where they belong. a troll under a bridge to me just sounds so nostalgic and wonderfull!
