It's a shame boats are so awful, because a custom Water World survival experience might be really neat. Are there any good boat mods? Or would people need to resort to train tracks over the water?

[Orange Wizard]

Archimedes' Ships is pretty good. You can make airships as well as boats. It's a little glitchy in multiplayer but singleplayer is usually fine.

In four days, I went from this:

To this:

idk if pics need resizing but yolo

So you went from two-bit addition to 8-bit multiplication (plus some other project to the side)?

[McDonald]

Actually I'm making a programmable computer. This giant square is the addition and subtraction, mess on the left is the ROM. These other things are prototypes of current parts.

And I can't even build a fricken house.

[McDonald]

Houses are HARD. Especially when you don't want them to be a simple cube of wood.

[MarcAFK]

Well I made a cobblestone slab, and an obsidian generator in the basement....
Then uh, ...... Hung out in the forest for a while.

[TD1]

Hanging out in the forest is HARD. Especially when you don't want to be creepered.

[FallacyofUrist]

Houses are easy enough- the problem is finding ore and food.

[Putnam]

food is easy as hell

find one seed and you have infinite food

[Orange Wizard]

Dig along on layer 11 and ores are pretty easy to find, too.

I think I'll regret posting in this thread, but--

I've always found cave exploration to be MUCH more productive than straight-up mining.

It depends on what you're after ore-wise.  Iron?  Total agreement; caving is an excellent iron mining method.

Redstone/diamond/obsidian?  Get down to Y11 and be a thorough brutal bastard in laying your grid.

Even for the goodies- find a nice low-level cave and you'll make a LOT more progress by exploring it than sticking to the grid.
So long as you keep an eye on the z-level that is.
