Better Than Wolves

June 6, 2011

• Modified the trapdoor in vanilla Minecraft so that it is no longer destroyed when the block next to it is. This allows the placement of trapdoors in the middle of floors, and makes them more versatile overall without affecting their functionality in any other way.
• Added particles to the blade of the Saw to indicate when it is getting mechanically powered.
• Changed Dung production to take into account light levels. Wolves now output more Dung in very low light conditions (light level of 5 and below).
• Adjusted the overall rate of dung production. An unfed wolf should now produce Dung on average once every 4 in-game days. A fed wolf, once a day. A fed wolf in the dark, twice a day.
• Made the recipe for making two panels into one wood or stone block, shapeless. This means the panels no longer need to be placed side by side in the crafting grid, but that if you have two panels in any two separate squares of the grid, they can form a block. (Panels were renamed to siding in version 2.96)
• Added shapeless conversion recipes to convert 2 pieces of Moulding into 1 wood Panel, and 2 corners into 1 piece of Moulding.
• Added ability to color wool and Wind Mills brown using Dung through the usual methods for dye. You can't do it to sheep however, as they tend to react rather badly when you try to rub Dung all over them.
• Changed Hopper to only deposit items into the first slot of a furnace. This allows for the smelting of stacks greater than 64 items, or the consecutive smelting of different kinds of items in the same furnace.
• Added the Grate as an item.
• Added Wicker as an item.
• Added an extra inventory slot to the Hopper in which you may place various items that act as a filter on what items the hopper will "swallow". You can use a ladder, a trapdoor, a Grate, or Wicker as a filter.
