Yeah, this has been cropping up a bunch on the forums lately. People need to be more careful with that stuff.

in my opinion this should have never been added to the mod in my opinion, atleast not how it is currently.
it shouldn't be something that can spread infinitely like that, at max it should spread inside 1 chunk and stop

Is there a way in crative mode or with command blocks to duplicate an item? This would be cool for adventure maps.
Some items, at least, can be placed in a Creative Strongbox or Item Transfer Node with a Creative Upgrade to duplicate them, although I haven't tested either with spatial storage cells. Also, if you're making a map, you should be able to duplicate basically anything with HQM.

NEI also adds a couple of ways to duplicate items in your inventory. The Save/Load feature can do it (place item in inventory, click Save, place item in chest, click Load, repeat as necessary), as will middle-clicking the item or maybe control-clicking it. The click features may or may not work with items that don't stack though- I haven't tested it.

If you activate a handglider while on a ladder, you will automatically climb up it, without having to press anything, albight at a slow pace.

Today I discovered Wayward Wonders and to my amazement, I actually spent a hour or so playing VANILLA minecraft. LOL

Well done Mondy! Anybody who can get me to go back to playing Vanilla, even for an afternoon, has done something fairly remarkable (IMO).


The hardest part is not having a mini-map. The developer even recommends having one. I simply resorted to the "old-fashioned" method of a pen and a little notebook, and pressing F3 to write down a lot of coordinates.

I thought it would be a quick play-thru, but it isn't. Def will take some time to work thru it all, but there's actually a reasonable chance I may spend the time doing so. I'm impressed with what he's done, nothing earth-shattering but a lot of effort has clearly gone into building all the Wonders and making a fine adventure out of it all.

If you are stuck in the Nether, you can still get chickens if you find a baby pigman (pigboy?) that happens to be riding one. That was a cool surprise.

I had a similar discovery, being able to put compressed sand into a TiCon smeltery for much more rapid glass production.
Same with compressed cobble in the smeltery. You can get seared stone that much faster.

Ooh, I'm so tempted to throw one of my octuple compressed cobblestone in now just to see what happens! I'm guessing, "nothing for a very very very very long time".
I believe it only works up to double or maybe triple compressed :p

Today I found out, the hard way, that the quantum helmet needs canned food in your inv to keep you feed...
Random Things "Player Interface" I tell you!
Interface it with some LP pipes to keep a stack of cans in your inventory at all time and remove empty cans. Then have your home network do all the refilling.
