It has been FOREVER since I went on the game especially vanilla. Minecraft is now version 1.9 and looks like they've actually added some nice stuff which mods have done for years https://mojang.com/2016/02/minecraft-19-combat-update/
I'm wondering what took so long? Didn't they release combat update pre releases at least 6 months ago (I remember watching some before I came to uni).
Yes, do you want me to increase it? Currently 10,000*10,000 centred around spawn. I pre-generated the chunks for about the first 3000*3000. I specifically picked a seed with a good mixture of biomes close to the spawn. Edit: Border is now 20,000*20,000 (±10,000). Edit2: New biome map
Left the nether, was greeted with this. Then my game crashed logged back in to be suffocating by blocks, so proceeded to dig straight up, which was where I met two friendly creepers and me and my items met our demise
Server is now up on the default port (simple connect to "gamingmasters.org") with mcmmo. If you're an OP, you may be getting bonus xp, so may want to deop yourself until I manage to fix this.
The only problem I've run into with the Combat Update and McMMO is the dual wielding aspect of the game. With dual wielding, you can put stuff like a Shield or Torches in your "off hand" and then Right Click to use that item. With McMMO, when you right click you will "Ready your Pick Axe" or "Ready your Fists". It can get a bit sketchy when you don't want to use your special ability. Is there a way to change how the special ability is triggered? EDIT: I found this. Maybe we can do that same thing?
