Hello! I will tell you some extra hints you can use in Minecraft!

1. Copy Blocks
To copy a block, simply look at the block (needs to be reached) and click Mouse3. If you are on creative, you will get the block. If you are on survival mode, if you don't have the block somewhere in your inventory, you won't get the block.

2. Tall grass
Don't you hate when you're building on grass and you have to destroy the tall grass to build? Well, no more! Simply, face the tall grass and right-click to place a block. The tall grass will be replaced with the block you place. This doesn't work with flowers.

3. Mo' Wood
When you use ANY type of sapling you get a small tree. Even you you get a bigger oak tree it's still not big. If you have 4 jungle saplings, place them on the ground in a square and use bone meal on them. You will get a HUGE jungle tree with a lot of wood.

4. Easy diamonds
Want to find diamond more easy? Diamonds are mostly found 7 blocks above bedrock. That's it!

5. Easy food
Don't you hate waiting for your food to cook? No more! You see a pig? Or a cow? Punch it with a sword 1-2 times and light it on fire using flint and steel. If it's a pig it will give you cooked porkchops. If it's a cow it will give you steak.

6. A new beginning
When you start a new world, first thing you do is punch trees. Grab over 20 wood, make planks, make crafting table, make pickaxes, mine stone, make a furnace and go deep in a cave. Exploring a long cave can get you 2 stacks of iron for less than a hour!

7. Sleeping in night
If you are on easy or above and it's night time and you don't have a house, simply craft a bed, place 4 blocks in a vertical square form, and place the bed on top (the idea is that the bed is 2 blocks from the ground, that way zombies, creepers and other things cannot get you).

8. Breath underwater
If you are underwater, searching for squids but you are deep and loosing bubbles? Well, simply just place a door on the ground! Stand near it, there should be empty space with air. Reason: The door is 2 solid blocks, but only 1/4 of the block is used. The other free space is empty (air).

9. Non-burnable wooden houses
Don't you hate when your wooden house gets on fire and it's impossible to put the fire out? Well, I'm going to teach you how to make your houses non-burnable! You know that a wooden slab can be mined with a pickaxe. If you put 2 wooden slabs, you will get a full wooden plank. This wooden plank can be mined only with a pickaxe (instead of an axe) and cannot be burned by fire! Build your wooden house out of double wooden slabs and you're done with your Non-Burnable wooden house!

The non-flammable house trick doesn't work as of 1.3.2. You can mine slabs with an axe.
