using the new clone feature i had an idea (but cannot get it working yet) you can create rooms that are all the same dimension and hide them in your base or home or whatnot. and then create an empty room. From there you can use the command block and buttons to "move" the rooms to your empty room. Making a single room that can be whatever room you want it to be.

 

The issues I see would be with storage in these rooms, You would have to overwrite the master if ever you added stuff to chests and then there's the chance destroyed chests would spill its contents like it does with /setblock

 

Would work well if storage wasn't involved because you would get infinite items if you kept restoring from the master :P

yeah storage would be a problem but you could use an ender chest and just makes rooms like crafting, potions, smelting and so on for smaller stuff. more of a proof of concept or just something cool.

 

it was just an idea i had and like i said i have not been able to get the cloneing tool to work properly for me yet.

We can figure out when to switch to 1.8 at an opportune time. Should we wait on a Bukkit build this time perhaps before upgrading?

 

For the record, I've installed the latest Bukkit dev build on the server just now.

 

And don't forget the building contest - kind of disappointed by the lack of response to it thus far.

Yes. Definitely.

That would be because I didn't spot the new thread (I don't look in Gamers Hangout), I was expecting at least a link from this thread - maybe I missed it.

What is the name of that texure pack? I used to use it myself but I lost it during a HDD wipe and forgot the name.

Sphax PureBDcraft :)

 

And killed the bugger. Made slightly easier by the fact that mob damage is off.

 

Maybe next time I can turn it on for you :P

So I've just found out that the server now has the ability to lock chests.

1) How do we do/not do this?

2) Does opening a locked chest have to result in instant death with no warning? That's out of order IMHO.

    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      By duhk · Posted

      I like the show more options. The only problem with it is that it's not always in a consistent spot in the menu. If the copy/paste/cut, happens to show on top, then more option is the last in the menu. But if copy/paste/cut happens to show on the bottom, then more options is before the copy/paste/cut. But I do like the more options because it hides the stuff that I rarely use. But I would like to choose what it is or isn't hiding. That would make it better.

      I wonder if "put it back the way it was for decades" ever crossed their minds? 🤣

      Rescind the stupid "Show more options" in context menus and just give us the full menu instead of adding more steps to get to what we want. The "simpler by default" makes me think they'll go in the opposite direction. Every context menu should have a configure button so you can pick and choose what options should be shown, I know you can do that with some registry fu but that shouldn't be required.

      This is why competition must exist. Finally, pressure is mounting on Microsoft to move in the right direction.

      Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable by Taras Buria Five years ago, Windows 11 introduced redesigned context menus, offering users a simpler, more modern design. However, customers quickly discovered that the new menus leave a lot to be desired. Many are unhappy with performance (they are really slow), while others dislike the double-layed design, where many options are hidden behind the "Show more options" button. In addition, over the years, menus became cluttered and overloaded. While Microsoft has already fixed plenty of pain points across Windows 11, context menus remain mostly unchanged. Fortunately, Microsoft is finally listening. Marcus Ash, Design and Research Lead for Windows at Microsoft, responded to a tweet on X, confirming that the company is working on fixing Windows 11's context menus. Reworked context menus are supposed to be faster, simpler by default, and "configurable to what you use most." What the latter means is unknown, just like whether Microsoft plans to keep the classic menu alongside the modern one, but according to Marcus, the wait should finally be over soon, as he promised to "share our approach soon." Improved context menus will most likely appear first in Windows 11 preview builds in the Experimental Channel. While we wait for Microsoft to release them, you can try fixing context menus on your PC with a simple tool called Windows 11 Context Menu Manager. It lets you disable entries you do not need, not only cleaning up context menus, but also making them significantly faster. Microsoft has already improved Windows 11's Start menu and taskbar, so hopefully it will address user criticism of the context menu as well. Stay tuned for new Windows 11 preview builds, which usually arrive every Friday.
