Hello everyone! I'm ZianU, and this is my AzurePlay project text blog. Last week I started my experimental Minecraft survival quests. Today they continued, but they weren't very interesting, because I didn't get much progress on the content from the update during the week, and there wasn't much to do.

But I pulled myself together, and played. And now you can read how I played the new version of the game. But first I'll start by describing what's changed in the new update.

Changes in Alpha 1.0.1_01:

Additions

  • Iron Door
  • Lever
  • Stone Button
  • Wood Pressure Plate
  • Stone Pressure Plate
  • Redstone Ore
  • Redstone Dust
  • Redstone Torch

Changes

  • The textures have been changed:
    - Cobblestone Stairs
    - Wood Stairs
    - Wood Door
  • The sign can now be hung placed on side of blocks.
  • The sign is smaller and non-solid now.
  • Mushrooms now can be spawned.
  • Monster Spawners doesn't dropping while being mined.
  • A burning stove is not dropped by a burning stove, but a regular stove.
  • Improved mob AI
  • Caves can be bigger than before.
  • Coal Ores blobs now are vary in size.
  • All gears are removed and replaced by redstone.

Fixes

  • Problem with mouse in Linux (only for 1.0.1_01).


That's it for this update. Well now, I think it's time to start playing the game, and exploring what's available.





Day 1 (game days 18 to 29)




On the first day of the game with the new update, I decided to dig under my first house, which has a triangular roof, an underground floor for a warehouse. And the warehouse, for security, should be with an iron door, which will be opened with a lever.

Although now, as I am writing this text, it seems to me that it would be better to replace the whole thing with pressure plates, for convenience.

And since the warehouse can not be made with Chests on the Chests, we will have to allocate a lot of space for the warehouse. And the floor, of course, will be made of stone slabs. It is both beautiful and useful for the future.

Since in the future these slabs will be made of Smooth Stone, and I may be lazy in the future, so while it's easy to do, I'll use this opportunity.

But I have to keep myself entertained, don't I? I decided to start digging out the grid in my mega mine, so as not to waste much of the tools' durability, and find diamonds.

At least I think I'm at the height where the most diamonds are, but honestly, I don't know, since I can't find out the coordinates.

But in my digging, all of a sudden I found my first gold, wow!

And I thought I should try to make a pickaxe, because the Minecraft wikipedia in Russian fooled me by saying that at this time gold pickaxes were stronger than iron pickaxes, but slower than diamond pickaxes.

I decided to check, and I was fooled. All my life, gold tools had a durability of 32 uses. I was upset about that.

So frustrated I came home, chopped more trees, and made wooden stairs for the basement storage area. And while I was doing that, I noticed a bug that if you put another wooden stair on top of a wooden stair, the bottom one just turns into a block of wood. Gross.



And since there was nothing to do again, I decided to continue digging for diamonds, and found this lava lake, can you imagine? Plus, there's a giant cave.



I dug and dug and dug, and found nothing but iron, gold and coal, so I decided to continue the next day.





Day 2 (game days 29 to 31)




The second day of the game, "suddenly", was just a day of digging mines, where again there was nothing but resources. And again 0 diamonds. For what? Honestly, I have nothing else to describe here. So I got a little frustrated, and decided to come back to the game the next day.




Day 3 (game days 31 to 33)




During this day, in addition to digging tunnels, I finally made a path to the mine to make it nice and comfortable.





I, again, became sad, and decided to leave another new digging the next day.




Day 4 (game days 33 to 34)





And this day, naturally, was all about cave digging. And again nothing but coal, iron, and gold.

This is the second week of the Minecraft Alpha 1.0.1_01. Next Sunday I'll be publishing an article about Minecraft Alpha 1.0.2_02, where nothing much has changed, but I'm going to do it all a little differently so that it might look better. That's it for now, good luck to all of you, and I'll see you next Sunday!
