1.7 thread - yottabyte - 06-22-2011
In this thread we discuss and post new stuff that will be added in Minecraft 1.7.
Here's basically a copy of the current list from http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Upcoming_features
- Adventure update, to flesh out the game a bit and make exploration and combat more rewarding. Note that this is "not" Adventure Mode.
- New features in the terrain generator; things which will only appear in new worlds/new generated areas.
- Shift+Click on items will work correctly.
- The Clay bug will be fixed.
- Labels for items will be added.
- Shears, will be the only way to harvest wool from sheep without hurting them.
* They also destroy wool and leaf blocks faster than by hand
* Using Shears will be a legitimate way to obtain placeable leaf blocks.
- TNT will only be activated by redstone or fire, so picking up TNT will be possible.
- Wool particle colours fixed.
- Multiplayer server list.
* Improved server join screen: The server join screen will feature a list of servers
- Pistons.
- Sticky Pistons will be included as well. They will be made with slime balls.
- Spike blocks, Jeb initially considered Spike Pistons, but then decided to make a Spike block that can be pushed by the Sticky Piston
- Player List - Press tab in multiplayer and player list comes up.
- New "scary" mob added.
- New improved lighting — day/night cycles will not require chunk updates. Lighting will be updated via a texture, whose coordinates are the block's sky light and block light levels.
* Warmer light from torches.
- New textures for cobblestone (and moss stone) blocks.
- Torches placable on fences.
- Experience Orbs
- Other secret projects.
- Huge Mushrooms.
- Use for Slimeballs: Slimeballs have been confirmed to be used in the creation of Sticky Pistons.
- Better Redstone Repeaters and Redstone connection.
- Redstone circuits not working after time set (x) glitch going to be fixed in SMP.
- Underground Ravines.
The most interesting stuff
- Adventure update
- Shears
- New lighting that looks awesome
- Pistons, sticky pistons, spikes.
- Torches on fences (FINALLY)
- Underground ravines.

Notch has no set date for the release but he plans it to be after E3, which is over so SOON!!! Hopefully. Notch is not known for being fast.

I'm exited to play with all the possibilities that can happen with Pistons.
RE: 1.7 thread - granite123 - 06-23-2011
pistons.... can be great for bridges, gates, traps XD wall of lava, dont hit the wrong lever or your getting pushed in =D
RE: 1.7 thread - geckosquid - 06-23-2011
Perhaps one of the best parts of pistons is that they can be used to control the flow of water, which is amazing. Also, I wonder if cacti can be pushed by pistons...
RE: 1.7 thread - yottabyte - 06-23-2011
I have an awesome idea for pistons that I want to try...
