I imagine the rabble when he makes torches non-permanent in one of his secret friday updates.

It will take some getting used to though, hopefully he adds in some other type of lightsource. Maybe involving redstone

I imagine the rabble when he makes torches non-permanent in one of his secret friday updates.

When? The rabble has already begun. And hundreds of people have already posted in the thread saying replacing their already-existing torches would be too much to deal with, or having to replace their lights all the time, after somebody saying on the first page that already-existing torches will be replaced with lanterns that won't go out.

 And goddammit that's my section that will bitch about it fuuuuuuuuu-

[SHAD0Wdump]

Eh... Replacing all the torches in my project area will be annoying, there's alot of them...

On the other hand, lanterns will look absolutely stunning in my chandeliers.

[Rose]

bah, just use magma for lighting. that's what a true dwarf would do.

That's not confirmed right? >_>

 I remember somebody saying Notch said it during a Twitter update or something. I can't really verify it, but it is brought up in the various threads that cropped up for this.

[dragnar]

Alright, nobody is allowed to complain at all! No matter what! We can't afford Duke going on a rampage!

[Thexor]

If Notch was smart, he'd make torches temporary in an update that breaks save files anyways - no 'replacement' necessary, since your world is toast regardless. 


That said, is there really any point in making torches temporary? It's yet another factor that would make the early game a real pain, while the late game (when you presumably have access to the resources to make permanent light sources) would be largely unaffected. And, I mean, this is a world where a pick made of wood can dig through solid stone - realism < gameplay, and I see no reason to change that just because ever-burning torches are somewhat unrealistic. Hindering gameplay for realism is bad.

[SHAD0Wdump]

Although I still would like lanterns. Fancy ones.

[PTTG??]

I agree- lanterns would be nice. How about this- maybe they could be much brighter than torches, but need to be refuled (possibly with a variety of fuels), while torches continue to last forever?

Eh... Nooo... I'm putting these things in my chandeliers. O(

However, if you could use redstone to fuel them magically...

[Jay]

I think I have a problem, you guys.

[NUKE9.13]

Namely what? Too many trees?
Floodgate+magma+lever=problem solved, yes?
