Title: What I've been up to recently
Post by: luisc99 on 3 July 2018, 06:50:52 PM

I've been off uni for a couple of weeks now, and in some of my free time I've been exploring the changes that Mojang's made in the upcoming 1.13 update, and how powerful they are. I've got a bold idea, that will be very hard to do if it's even possible, but today I made a very small step towards the end goal.

(For reference, all blocks added by vanilla Minecraft have the prefix minecraft:)

I'll let you know if I end up going anywhere with this...

I thought that this update would be rather underwhelming, turns out, it's anything but. One of the most interesting updates the Mojang has made in a long time.

It's the kind of update we should have gotten all along, actually fleshing out the world, adding to it. Animals, plants, life. Depth, immersion.

Why is this kind of thing coming sooooo late in the game? It's great, but holy shit imagine if all the updates were like this all these years? Why did it take so damn long?

If underwater is getting this treatment, the land certainly needs it.

The one thing I've noticed during the snapshots was the pure amount of lag. It wasn't too draining, but it still took off some fps. I can only assume it comes from the moving kelp and fish etc.

So while I love the update, I feel as if they are pushing to have to many things out at once. However, I would consider it the biggest update since 1.6.2

I moved on from breaking blocks to breaking biomes instead :)

This looks pretty neat, let us know if you have any other updates. I haven't really gotten around to looking at 1.13 yet.
