I think the idea is to help punish shenanigans such as killing yourself to reset the food journal. The other option is to lock it into hardcore mode. ;) Edit: Forgot the original suggestion's wording, which obviated a concern now deleted.

I haven't tried it in 1.1.5 yet, but in 1.1.4 fruit trees responded instantly to bone meal. Break the fruit manually, chop the tree, and replant for a good source of food. Juicable and pie-able fruit being the best, of course.

When I was digging around in the mod configs yesterday (to disable the "peckish/hungry/starving" display, and the ridiculous 5+ decimal place percentage display of encumbrance) I noticed that Hunger Overhaul has a config setting for food decay, and that it was enabled. Is this new in 1.1.5? Has...

I do not believe it is correct that drowning creepers will target water, unless you speaking of an upcoming change in 1.1.4. In a creative mode test, I was unable to get a drowning creeper to target water, either stationary or flowing, while I was able to get them to target torches. This fits...

OK, I have done some creative mode research. Based on my observations, Endercreepers do not target objects on the grief list that normal creepers and other types of special creepers do. Also, to address one of the proposed solutions, endermen and endercreepers WILL teleport through water blocks...

Anesos seems not to be having any trouble with a surface base in his LP. It just takes some defensive base design and a bit of vigilance.

I believe that endermen (and thus endercreepers) will teleport onto half slabs. Not sure about covers, but it seems likely. The only surface I know of that they won't target for teleportation is the lilypad. However, I am not sure that endercreepers will grief. Have you actively seen it happening?

As in turning a potato into a baked potato.

It isn't intuitive from NEI, but you can also get Foul Fume by cooking foodstuffs in the Witches Oven (I only know because I saw Anesos do it).

Well, I saw a black creeper in the trench. When I looked back over the wall, there was no black creeper in the trench, but there was one on the outside edge. At this point I looked at it and IDed it as a death creeper. I turned away for a moment, then went to look at the creeper again -- I...

I am fairly sure it was a death creeper, and I didn't see any zombies around. First it jumped out of the 3 deep trench, and then up next to me on my walls.

Are death creepers supposed to be able to jump up 3 block walls over a two block gap? Oh well, time to start a new hardcore world. :)

Or, for better usability you could make the floor of your base lily pads -- endermen won't teleport to them, so I doubt ender creepers will. It would take awhile to find enough, but you can craft them using nature essence from magical crops.

Fill your base with a layer of water?

Maybe hidden underground vaults with villagers in them? Completely obscured from the surface, but with some endgame way to locate them?

I had assumed that the abandoned cities were from a time before the planet became a dust ball (perhaps a global thermonuclear event, which also created the zombies?)

Read the spoiler if you want an even better way to do it.

It makes the early game tight on food, admittedly, but it gives you the chance to set up an efficient mob trap to go with your defenses. In my current game (the inauspiciously named "Attempt 13"), I was able to set up water streams in a moat to push all the mobs that attack my base into a...

Very exciting! Any thoughts on making beds harder to get, so players can't get one on the first day to avoid all mobs?

I really like this mod pack, and I have had a lot of fun figuring out how to survive on hard mode with the extra difficulty addons. That said, I have a balance suggestion. If a player gets a silk worm on their first or second tree (maybe a 1/4 chance), they have a fighting chance at getting a...
