Farmable glowstone! - asdfasdflkjty911 - 07-14-2012

So I was browsin the minecraft subreddit when I found this. (its actualy one of the top posts right now)

Growing Glowstone!

Interesting? I personally love this idea. Glowstone is a pain in the arse to get alone on a new map. Could this be implemented into the server?

Great idea!

No clue what that whole 'codey-business stuff' was, but this would be awesome.

Glowstone just makes things better.

The only downside I see is that using glow-stone in the nether for building isn't possible anymore. Ex. roof lighting. It would just form huge crystals in your roof. Other than that, I like it.

Unless there is a way to restrict the growth of glowstone in the nether (ie space availability)

It could be made that the algorithm only kicks in when there's already, say, 5 glowstone blocks connected to eachother. This way we can still use them as lights.

I think he said it only works in the Nether. Not positive, but I think it said that somewhere.
Oh and it said you need a really big space for it to grow, so I doubt it would grow if you have one block of the stuff in the ceiling.

Yes, this script only works in the nether.

Yeah I like this idea, finding glowstone in the nether is quite rare now as everyone has dried up the resource.


RE: Farmable glowstone! - Cell - 07-14-2012

He said it grows faster in bigger spaces. I'm talking about nether bases though. Having a block in the ceiling in say a 50x50 area, would cause it to grow. Which, in term, would not allow you to effectively use glowstone lighting in the Nether. Party's solution should, and would work though Tongue.
