Well you could already modify the source. :P
It would be fun indeed.

@Piguy-3.14: Wow, thanks for the encouragement! :) Well, "final version" was probably the wrong expression; I meant v1.0, which means that it includes all initially planned features. When v1.0 is finished, I'll try to do some crazy stuff like infinite worlds, redstone, 2 layer system, dimensions, minecarts etc. But all of those features would take a very long time to develop and debug, so I want to finish all basic features first; but I think infinite worlds and redstone will be the first features I'll try to realize then ;)
I can't say yet how long I will continue working on MC2D and Nspire projects in general, because in 1 year I'll have finished high school and I intend to proceed to PC game/app development sometime...
And about the furnace bug: Yes, that was a stupid typo in the code which I fixed in v0.12.2, which I should have already uploaded if I wasn't that lazy... I'll do that soon :P
Sorry for nonsense.

Can you eventually add more monsters like spiders? and what about the nether?

If you do attempt infinite worlds, there should be an option to have a limited world as well, i kind of like it, and it would probably have a lot less lag.

Thanks for quick reply, when do you estimate to release the update?

!!Update!!
Version 0.12.2 is now attached to the first post

Fixes & Improvemets:
- Probability of a freeze vastly reduced (still not sure why the timer stops so often for no reason)
- Fixed crash when destroying a used furnace
- Some minor fixes and improvemets

Can you eventually add more monsters like spiders? and what about the nether?
Yes, I think I'll create spiders for v0.13 and as I said to Piguy-3.14 dimensions such as the nether would be a post v1.0 feature

If you do attempt infinite worlds, there should be an option to have a limited world as well, i kind of like it, and it would probably have a lot less lag.
Yes, I'd keep the option of a finite world. I think the mapsize wouldn't affect the performance much; the engine is built to handle very large worlds; the lag is only because the Nspire LUA is so slow at drawing, but v0.13's fast graphic mode will be really fast (but only at moving the cursor ;)). But I'm a bit worried about the maximum length of a saveable string and the clipboard buffer... a large world already has about 17000 characters!

Thanks for quick reply, when do you estimate to release the update?
v0.12.2 now :P And v0.13 will take a while... I guess I'll take about a month
Sorry for nonsense.

Oh no, you're right; I totally forgot that I was working on an update there... Can you please pm me all the things you found I have to do to make it solid until I have the time to work on the big v2.0 update?

You'll need to really keep on your toes with updates to stay ahead of the nGL Minecraft (was it CrafTI?). :P Just kidding.

I've been playing this now that I have 3.6 (\o/) and you've done a great job. However, I think that the Piggy Bank from Terraria would go well here. Both Minecraft 2D and Terraria have limited world sizes, and the universal player inventory, though small, helps make up for the size so you can keep progressing despite running out of space.
EDIT: After more playing, I've got a couple of questions:
  • Why are my saplings disappearing? Can they only grow on grass? Why do they dissapear even when they're on grass?
  • Will movement items be added (like Terraria)? I know you're trying to be MC in 2D, but without that 3rd dimension, moving around without hooks/larger jumps is annoying. (Especially on those 2-high hill things. I don't want to destroy it, but I can't get around if I don't!)
  • Why do mob spawners disrespect light levels completely? I could get it if they required a light level within 2 blocks of a torch, but making them only stoppable by blocking off/destroying is annoying.
  • Why are the checks for hostile light level at spawn at head level? (Just curious about this one.)

Was crafting in 3.1 ever fixed? You should just have the gui show up for crafting and be able to scroll though them with arrow keys.
This used to contain a signature.

  • Yes, as the help text says, saplings can only be placed on grass (or dirt). As in the real Minecraft, they disappear if they don't have enough space to grow; but in that case you get the item back.
  • No, sorry, I only want to make a Minecraft port, not a new game. You can use ladders or a water elevator! And btw: All this non minecraft stuff could be added by mods!
  • Thats a new feature of v0.13: You can put a torch on it to disable it then. Remeber it's still in development (v0.12)
  • I don't know. I changed it to feet level for v0.13
Was crafting in 3.1 ever fixed? You should just have the gui show up for crafting and be able to scroll though them with arrow keys.
Yep it was fixed in v0.12


And by the way: v0.13 is mostly finished, I estimate that the release date will be around end of this month :)
