New Mob Trap/Drop Machine.

[Verrou]

So using the design from: Here (http://www.minecraftforum.net/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=55552)

I created my own version. I couldn't be *REMOVED* digging to the bedrock so just started about 30 blocks beneath the sea floor. I left the game on Normal mode for 30 minutes and this is what I got.

That's:
- 529 Gunpowder
- 536 Arrows
- 432 Feathers
- 254 String

Giving a total of 1751 items in 30 minutes. So 3502 per hour on average. I have 13 floors at 21 x 21 in size :) No where near 11510 like the original guys one, but this is satisfactory to my needs!

WOH. Really nice, I was trying to replicate that thing legitimately but I decided to change it because I couldn't be bothered digging out more. But this is really good. I'm impressed... now just to create now.

[Verrou]

Now just to create now? And mine is legit, no hacks. Took me fifty bajillion years and 10 trillion coal to get all the clean stone for the exterior :/ Thought the random tower ruined my map a bit. So added some stuff:

Looks like such effort to make lol but nice result, that's a lot of TNT and cloth you can make..

[Verrou]

Yeah it's sooooo helpful! I have a whole double chest full of arrows aswell!

[Chippiewill]

I call shenanigans on that grass.

[Verrou]

Lol shenanigans? Dumb animals. Honestly overrun.

[Chippiewill]

Tell me, how did that grass get there? Eh? EH?!?!

[Verrou]

Placed dirt on top? Chucked torches everywhere. Grass.

Grass doesn't spawn except in certain circumstances..

See criterion #1

[Verrou]

I just put dirt down and left it for several minecraft days. Idk.

[Josh]

See criterion #1

Read the note down the bottom. Consider the floating rock/island thingo a new map.

[FlyingJesus]

What floating islands always seem to have grass as far as I've seen

[Josh]

Pretty sure this is an artificial island.

[FlyingJesus]

Still not getting your point lol, there's light therefore life

[Chippiewill]

All criterion must be matched, thus why if there was no grass in the first place there can never be grass.

[FlyingJesus]

Guessing that guide must be outdated then, or there might be some special condition matched because of the water running up the side of the tower:

Well, it was for indev, but there's no reason for it to change. It's why grass won't randomly grow next to lava if there's dirt.

I dont see the point sounds like your going out of your way to Prove Chippie tbh imo does it matter how he done it? ;s

Well at first I thought he might have hacked in some grass blocks but he seems oblivious to the fact that grass won't spawn without nearby grass. Now I'm just curious as to how it happened.

[[Chris]]

Thats a hell of a lot of items. I want one.

And chippie.. Ive had grass grow on an artificial land mass before..

This isn't making logical sense... I'ma do some tests tomorrow to see if it's changed.

How could you call minecraft just a game? I have blood-lust when a creeper blows up my freshly laid glass roof.

I'm confused too :S A friend made a rooftop garden on a building that was built in the sea and he had to cheat because it just came out looking like a garden in construction, or a dirt field. He had to cheat :/ Maybe it's only in multiplayer where grass doesn't grow? Not tried single player yet.
