what server are the pics on


epic.cole2sworld.com

kasic do u let other players play on ur server


It's not my server it's Green_Cream_Soda's, the forums for it are here, http://mc.cole2sworld.com/ you have to register on the forums for free to play on epic. The main server, mc.cole2sworld, I don't like as much because it lags for me and there's a ton of people, so I play on epic which has a good group of players.

Im going to screenie your fails and save them and upload them to the internets for lulz


Oh noes! Hurry mod, delete them!!!

so it has been announced that 1.7 will no longer be the adventure update, that will be 1.8, but 1.7 will have pistons, and most likely a few bug fix's, and 1.8 will most likely have TONS of stuff and will be awesome, notch also sed that 1.8 will be that last major update before the official release of miecraft sometime in November, so i vary much look forward to seeing some awesome things made with pistons once 1.7 comes out, he sed that it will be soon

I just thought I should mention that 1.7 is out now and it has pistons, stackable fences and shears.

Well, I have to say, pistons were a HUGE let down. There's 3 MAJOR limiting factors to how they operate.

1) An extended piston cannot move

2) Sticky pistons do not stick, they simply pull when they retract. An object next to a retracted sticky piston will not move if the sticky piston moves.

3) "Retracting" is near impossible to do via redstone if there are more than 2 pistons in a series.

In essence, Notch utterly BUTCHERED the possibilities of pistons. You are now limited to very simple 1-2 block movements, opening walls, opening flood gates, etc. There's no chance of elevators that go floor to floor or extending bridges.

Well, after much experimenting with pistons and others imput, here's a small list of what i've been able to make with them.

"Teleporters" that move you up through blocks.
Self repairing bridges and roads.
Vaults
Opening walls
Trapfloors
Hidden staircases
Lava/water doors.

I'm not sure what you said, but I know you can easily make infinite cobblestone with lava and water.

Yeah, Spartandestroyer, I have no idea what you want yours to look like lol. I do know however how to make what you're talking about, as that's about 1/2 of the automaticly repairing bridges and roads. The biggest limitation to this is that a piston can only push 12 blocks.

I think Minecraft is good, but since Terraria is online, I prefer it more.
