Since the name of the thread is use for bones, I'd like to point out the use of bone meal as a supplement in livestock feed. If mixed fodder for animals became available, the addition of bone meal could lead to increased animal growth.

I'm gonna have to use this in casual conversation sometime soon now.

Then make thatch not support any block above it without being crushed, and fall if not supported by wall within 2-3 blocks. This leaves it as just roofing or cheap bridging material.

Oh Dr. Trollington.

Wouldn't an easier way to get rid of sticks be to just make thatch out of them?

Only Thaumcraft interests me out of the group so far mentioned, it's one of the few mods I've actually tried since finding TFC and frankly it may not be as massive and sweeping as TFC, but it's creativity is easily on par. I hope you get this to work.

If cobblestone is loose rock simply placed in the world, it makes no sense that it can't be gathered by hand, so long as you gather it from the top.

Alright, since nobody has gotten it, I'll say this, look for similarities between the code itself, and pi.

There are some things even alcohol won't fix.

I noticed you can't chisel a block that has a block above it. Not sure of the point but it sure is annoying in creative mode.

I know people like this. Best when viewed from a distance.

The trees are basically just larger and the leaves and "branch" blocks more scattered. While I admit larger trees would probably be nicer, the trees we have are good enough unless they come out with the tree branches change that someone mentioned, where trees actually have branches in them instead of random single log blocks.

Not particularly considerate of them all now is it?

If they want to copy your work, they will, all they need to do is reproduce your concept once and make a copy of it on their own locked plan, and the entire thing becomes circumvented. Consider that if they want to be so uncreative as to use your own design then at least accept the compliment instead of complaining about someone else playing with your toys. As a side note, a surefire way to keep others from stealing your ideas is to play SSP.

I'm not a coder, so excuse me while I ask open questions in regards to the use and functionality of a night sky. As far as coding it, wouldn't it be as simple as separating the sun/moon and the stars themselves into two different layers that move differently, with sun and moon keeping a relatively similar pattern and stars having more rotation on the verticle axis rather than the horizontal one? (And obviously a much slower one for star movement). While I agree the primary use for this is while on the ocean, the truth is that if you have to travel a long distance (such as on SMP servers where people have spread out) and don't use a minimap and coordinates, wouldn't an alternative method be to travel in the general direction of two stars to the left and straight on till morning?

You're on the right track.

Unfortunately you just have to search for them, sometimes they are towards the top, sometimes they are deeper, if all else fails keep walking to find other biomes and you'll come across it eventually.

What?

At that point, the nests of monsters should just be dire wolves/bears/honeybadgers. Zombies and skeletons don't have enough awareness beyond kill target to create a nesting area, and can't breed that I'm aware of. Spider nests could be done as well, and potentially creeper colonies. The exception to this is if we go a bit more towards the fantasy side and the nests work kind of like the nest in the movie Slither, where meat is gathered and force fed to birthing monstrosities.

Dunk: TLDR: Make underground or under-ocean farming possible either by removing the need for a line of sight to the sky, or make tubes that lead to the sky provide a wider range of growable area underground. Personally, I still think an underground farming system of fungus and molds would be nice, but I'm also a dwarf at heart.

Just a short message.

MLP will do that to you.

You all seem pretty keen. With half the things you guys have cracked this shouldn't be much trouble. 14159265358979323846264 11192653589793238462643 35426735897932354626133 59265358179323841264938 92653589993238466653381 21545895922384626433839 65358919333846264331357 53589753238412643383279 35897932388686433132795 58971323846565338227950 89795238462643383279502
