Question for people who have fooled around with Mystcraft:

I finally got a chicken to spawn on my sky island, waited until it laid some eggs, threw them until a new chicken spawned, and killed it for the feather. Time to go world hopping!

First world is in eternal night with bizarre wooden shapes going every which-way. I build a little shelter, bring out my link book, and attempt to place it on a stand, only to drop it on the ground by accident. I had no idea how to pick it up, so I punched it, hoping that it would drop like a block. NOPE. It broke.
Killing myself did not bring me home. Nor did creating a new link book and naming it Overworld. HOW DO I GET HOME?!

You should have created a linking book before you left. Link books are tied to the location they are created at. The only way home now is to keep world hopping until you find a star fissure or make a nether portal.

For the record, I DID create a link book before I left. I just failed to set it up in the stand correctly or figure out the right way to pick it up.

What does a star fissure look like?

[The Darkling Wolf]

Big ass hole leading down to void.

And you pick up droppeed books by rightclicking on them, then taking the book out of the GUI that pops up.

Big ass hole leading down to void.

Taken out of context, this is a rather hilarious sentence.

[Girlinhat]

World-hopping may be your only option.  Eventually you'll spawn a world that has a star fissure, which is where the terrain suddenly fractures and there's a sheer pit leading down past bedrock.  Jump in, and be sent back to "Overworld"!

Nether portals may or may not link back to Overworld.  I'm not sure.  Considering you're on a sky island, it may be considerably difficult to get a nether portal to lead you back to the one bit of solid ground.  Chances are the nether portal will spawn in the middle of nowhere in the overworld with a few bits of obsidian to stand on.

Anyone know if a way to automatically place microblocks exists? Most methods don't seem to be capable of placing them automatically, which really puts a damper on my plans involving automated frame engine assembly lines... Or at the very least means they will be less elegant.

Can someone explain to me why every single tutorial out there (seems to be/) is a long long video? ._.
I do not like videos. I don't want to waste time watching you walk around, fumble for things, and speak when I could read a few lines of text and get over with it in one twenty-fifths of the time. >.>

Especially Mo's Creatures.

Its an easier format for most people to follow than just writing things in text, and more enjoyable if the author of the video is entertaining.

I fully agree.  Here's my rant,   alway's rant, and Skyrunner's mini-rant.

[forsaken1111]

Of course, instead of ranting about it you could create a tutorial in your chosen format so others who dislike videos don't have to use them.

...Except, y'know,

Zebras can only be tamed whilst riding a zorse, zonkey, leopard, or a "cow horse" otherwise they will just flee from the player, you can see how to get a "cow horse" by looking at this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XDzoNfKA_is

Also, there's nothing about cow horses on the first link.

Mmmm?  Wouldn't I have to, like, watch those video tutorials first?  The ones I generally can't stand?

Gently caress that poo-poo.

[Skyrunner]

Yes, I must fail google-fu :/
Or rather, Ididn't examine the chart enough.

Still, videos > text tutorials by a wide margin still stands.
