fence posts do that a lot :(

first time they've done it to me.

 

It's weird - it's like a big rectangle where they've gone. Above and below it they're fine :S

You should have built the bridge 4 times bigger, then a regular block would have been the right size for the cables.

(giggle)

Maybe for the scale of the bridge, but not the scale of the world :C

oh, that is wierd, I've only hard of them doing it pretty much at sea level

just built two towers of sand up to the bootm of the invisiible bit and they've come back,

Since when did scale really matter?

Since caer suggested I made my bridge 4 times bigger :((

Pah, you just lack Ambition, young man :{)

does minecraft have some kind of memory issue?
I'm asking cos mine seems to crash after about an hour, with a DOS screen full of comments, but relaunching the .exe makes it all work again for another hour

Where's the dos screen coming from? Oh do you mean the ingame thing with the white background? Make a note of what it says next time (or take a screenie).

Shouldn't be a memory thing I think cos java's supposed to be sandboxed. Minecraft crashes for lots of reasons though so could be just you get a crash every hour or so from statistical chance or something.

Anyway yeah, note down the error. Though java errors can be a bit uselessly generic.

nah, not ingame, like a dos prompt box with a load of stuff, I'll do a screen shot next time

like this ~

This explains so much.

 

Hint: He wasn't trying to put the flames out.

At least you didn't get a picture of when the cross caught fire too...

I'm keeping that one as insurance.

:$

What are you making now, you madman :'D

There are two right turns in it :|
