    Does four (4) count as a lot? If not, you could always go on a rampage for Octopi. ;)

    From out there on the moon, international politics look so petty. You want to grab a politician by the scruff of the neck and drag him a quarter of a million miles out and say, ‘Look at that, you son of a bitch’.

  • Registered Users Posts: 288 ✭✭welchy

    Huh, that's weird. I would like them if I may. The End is going to look scarier.

    A lot of them 36 sacks are from me testing it (I don't want them)

    I think you have to stand a minimum distance from the water for squid to spawn.


  • Registered Users Posts: 513 ✭✭✭mhiggy09


    I believe I have found the problem. squid farms need to be in a area with little to no water and the area u built it in has a lot of water. I am going to try ina desert and see if i have any success.


  • Registered Users Posts: 288 ✭✭welchy


    Only water from levels 63 to 45 will spawn squids btw

    All Minecraft Realms are hosted by Mojang, who periodically reset the server (not the map).

    Was it updates to the server?

    Nope, it's just something all games servers do habitually to keep everything ticking over as it should. It's beyond my expertise to explain exactly what happens, but I think it basically flushes the CPU and RAM of processes and starts it again. Only thing that changes on the actual game is it deletes all entities floating on the floor (I think)

    Have been teaching the little one how to play Minecraft over the last week or so, she's 2, thinking of recording and uploading a new world where she gets to make all the major decisions as we try get to the nether. Some of the stuff she comes out with is golden.

    Should be fun, any suggestions?

    I play a lot of single player too, one thing I like to do if it gets a little dull is to set myself stupid rules to follow - must eat vegetarian for a week, can't break cobblestone, no armour, can't jump for a week. Sounds fun though!

    Dark when will the scavenger hunt begin? I see u have a sign up saying its starting soon.


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,948 ✭✭✭✭bnt


    Stumbled on a gaggle of horses while extending the railway: about eight around 323, -469. With the added convenience of access by rail: head north from spawn, hang a right at the T, and keep going. :cool:

    PS: at the moment, the rail is not a circle: I'm extending it all the way around the swampland and back.

    Update - I took a look this morning, and squid are spawning there. A couple dropped out while I was there, and i put the ink sacs in the chest. It also trapped a witch, which tried to poison me ...

    My squid farm is now complete and is working. Its full automatic and all you need to do is collect the ink sacs from the chest. I also added a water elevator down to the collection area/ During mining out part of the collection system I found a dungeon so the squid farm will become a exp/mob drop farm too! I made a tower/monument thing to mark the place the farms in and the co ords are 91/66/941 if anyone wants to use it (dark:)) I included a few pics if any1 wants to look.

    How rare are white horses? This is the first one I can recall seeing - a bit to the south of the rest:

    I always end up with a white horse named Shadowfax on every server I play on, but it does take a bit of searching to get one: the whites are a lot less common than the browns and blacks. (As will be the case in America soon if you listen to a certain kind of person!)
