My awesome irrigated greenhouse.

 

it's accessed by an tunnel from the basement of my house, the platform I'm on is just there to take the screen shot. Water runs inside and all around the outside of the greenhouse.

 


The exterior shot is taken from my sniper turret on top of my house.

 

Anyone want to buy some wheat?

 

*sleeeeeep*

I've now seen people using red-stuff and torches to make logic gates - I guess pretty much anything can be built with enough time

Redstone.

And yeah, I do now remember someone was asking a while ago if a turing machine was possible, which I think it is - so with enough time, space, and resources anything can be emulated.

Of course, input and output methods are limited, and running anything complicated inside a game inside a Java VM inside an OS is not going to give the greatest performance.

But it's still cool how this "simple" stuff can allow such complexity.

Bastard!

I need to eat food, digest it, then go sleep. Preferably all achieved before 1am, so I can get enough sleep combined with being up at a decent time.

But I also want to go find the water mob, the new trees, and discover what the new recipes might be.

:(

I hate you Notch! :@

That's pretty damn cool :D

You might want to remove all the dirt/grass tiles round your crops to stop wildlife spawning and trampling them.

All this has reminded me "The Incredible Machine" I used to play in 1995. So I found the disc ( :Y ) and reinstalled it :-

I tried to make a random number generator using balls and ray guns, but I ran out of parts :(

Ahh, its the dirt tiles that make them spawn. I'll give if a stone floor later.

 

Yesterday I added a second floor made of glass with with more wheat beds. I harvest every few days and get like 64 wheat :$

Yeah took me a while to work out how the fuck the animals were getting into my farm.

I seem to always build my house as a bunch of raised islands connected by bridges. Which no doubt says something about my personality. That I am a dick perhaps. A dick surrounded by a cactus-wall.

I thought I'd kinda tired of this game for a while but I got lost in it again last night. I love exploring.

Anyone played it in 3D mode?

 

Wondering if it's worth getting some glasses off eBay....
