Hello Minecraft thread, I'm new to this poo poo and I wandered off the edge of my map and now I can't get back to an area where my marker is back on my map, therefor can't get back to my house/stuff. I didn't think about it and already slept outside the edge of the map too so I can't just spawn back at home. What do i doooo?

Edit: single player btw.

The compass points to your original spawn-point, not your bed. It doesn't require a whole lot of material so if you can't make one it shouldn't take too long to mine for it.

You are the lord. What a long journey home that was.

Just finished making my first real building on this game: The Dark Tower.

Finding all those roses and killing squid/dyeing sheep to make black wool took longer than I thought it would.

But what's in the top room?

Making a trapdoor so when you get to the top room you fall all the way down (with some water to break your fall maybe?) and land.... in the desert. Dun dun DUNNNNNN.

Not obsidian?

I didn't even know obsidian existed when I started making this. I'm quite new to this game.

I noticed sheep I used shears on long ago are still hanging out, even ones super far away. I'm guessing they got rid of them disappearing? Does the wool regrow now or something?

Minecraft has officially blown my mind. I was swimming along and I see this:

I swam down there and realized I was in an... underwater waterfall? Somehow all the water doesn't go down there and flood the whole place. Weird poo poo.

Making a building in the middle of a large body of water, anybody know the best way to get rid of a lot of water?

You have to replace it with something and then get rid of that something, basically. Wood or wool work well because you can just burn them away afterwards, sand and gravel are easier because you can stand above the water and drop them in rather than having to swim down and come up for air all the time, but they're more of a pain to get rid of afterwards, although you could go with the torch trick to speed things up.

Torch trick you say? Go on.

All sudden when I get on my server (which I host for a couple friends locally) all items are gone, spawn in some random area, etc. Basically the server seems to have reset all the info. Only thing that's happened recently is I updated java. Any clue on how to get the server back to normal?

Can this get added to the OP?

With so many images being posted in this thread and the timg tag is broken in chrome (shows up red box, have to open in new tab to see).

There is a fix for it, written by a goon.

Yeah, now I too would like this stuff split in to a separate thread please. This is pretty crazy behaviour for a mediocre YouTube thing.

Please do this.

I love it when you're doing something totally innocuous like harvesting wheat and you don't even hear the fuse go off before you have to rebuild you're entire irrigation system.

Love it!

Creepers blowing up redstone projects is definitely my favorite thing.

Meanwhile at Mojang ...

Oh god this would be awesome! I'd love to be able to arm Zombies! Maybe he'll do skeletons, too?

This better happen. A zombie with an iron sword would be great.
