Do you have to eat in the game? I thought it was all about the building/mining.

I refuse to play a game where you have to make your avatar eat to stay alive in a perfunctory way. :-Y

Eating is optional.

If you're playing survival mode, you've got 10 hp and different food types can restore varying amounts of it.

Falling off things reduces HP, as does being attacked my monsters.

On Teh Mine there are no monsters and you regenerate pretty fast, so food isn't required unless you want to repeatedly jump off of high places in quick succession.

Ah, essentially a medikit (tm) device then?

I'd get this game if I didn't think my addictive nature would kick in... I can see myself whiling away the wee hours for weeks on end working on building the biggest/longest/widest thing ever. (nj).

I don't know what you're doing cos I haven't logged on for HOURS. But I will gladly help with whatever your project is if you figure out a way of me having an autofeeding cart mechanism for my rollercoaster at some point.

If I have a switch that releases a cart onto a stone pressure switch, and them when someone gets in it activates the perpetual motion cart to bump it ill be onto a winner.

I'm wasting my life aren't I?
