Make charcoal, can use it just the same for torches etc.

He'd still have to make sticks, and use additional wood for the charcoal. Foo'.

Wood is renewable.

I think wood should be quicker to cut down.

Do diamond axes not go through it quick enough?

 

(only guessing - not had enough resources to make one myself!)

Yeah, but trees are /everywhere/. And once you've cut down a small forest, you usually have enough saplings to replant it again.

Diamond axes and picks see to do the job in the same time, but not quick enough.

 

My original issue with wood was having to go treking around for it but then I realised I should just plant my own little forest in my complex that I renew each time I cut it down.

The server is going very slowly tonight. Lots of lag and everthing taking a while to load.

I guess I should find a better time to torrent :$

Haha, no wonder it was going slow :)

People are stupid. :(

Very! But it looks like we have most of them using Facebook.

This is not a good combination. :/

It is when you stop using Facebook and move to G+.

I can't stop using Facebook until at least my family switches, and there's already plenty of annoyingly dumb people on G+ - just read comments on any popular person's posts. :'(

I have built a path from your nether gate (nj) - hope that's ok

yours was the closest to my new one

You're right. Some of them are just a big circle jerk. I think the only safe thing for us is to stay here.

/getpos gives Yaw, where 0=North, 90=East, 180=South, 270=West

Or F3 gives you some number between 0 and 3 which would tell you which direction you're facing if you can be bothered to remember what the numbers mean. Which I can't.

 

Or there's /compass, which just plain tells you a direction, but I'm not sure whether that would be an extra mod.
