Do they not then?

My compass seems to point to /home

Pretty sure that's bollocks.

Easily testable by moving in a circle around /home or /spawn while facing the same direction.

Yeah, definitely /home for me.

He's talking about /compass which is either a core server or bukkit command. It's currently on the server but returns a permissions error.

Since we've got the information with /getpos I don't think we really need /compass as well, but if it doesn't take you long to do then it'll stop Lucy whining so might as well do it.

I never use getpos because... I can just look where the sun is or whatever. Or if I'm underground I'll press f3.

This is a different thing, this is an in-game thing. It's much easier to glance as the compass in my hotbar than to open the console and type a command. More immediate and physical, too.

Oh right /compass rather than the actual compass?

Well we all have /compass now which will tell you what bearing you're facing including N..NE..E..SE..S etc

So you mean the actual compass item. I think there is a plugin that can do that, not sure if it's a setting I can change with Bukkit. If it was I doubt there would be a plugin.

What is?

You wrote this before:

He typed /compass into the console to get that.


If you want something visual, you need a specific mod to do that.

:C

Didn't realise that was what Jon was talking about.

Yes, I want the in-game compasses to point North. That would be nice. It's not a big deal at all though so not worth wasting time over.

I've wasted the appropriate amount of time and the compass now points North.

:D

I will build a monument in your honour.

:D

What blocks would people really like?
I mean blocks that aren't in the game.

 

I would like Sandstone and Stone steps, rather than having to do slabs.

Or maybe I'm not using slabs are creatively as I should.

I would like for all logic circuits (well, the basic ones - logic gates, flip flops, monostable circuits and so on) to be makeable as single blocks, like relays are now. Because circuits get ridiculously big.

 

I would like to be able to dye glass.

 

I would like something that glows, like glowstone, but doesn't look like shit.

 

And I would like to be able to make chickens be my pets, like you can with wolves.

I've not bothered with pet wolves but pet other things I might be interested in!
