Super cool idea... would love to use it right now if I was not so invested in my world. but SOON! Would personally love to be able to mine and polish jade for use in little statues!

Hi, just wondering about irrigation and moisture in farming. It's March of Year 2 in my 9-day month world and I've prepared a field for the spring.

I've furrowed the field with source blocks at every intersection. The moisture levels of the farmland tiles seem to be vacillating: When I first plowed them, they went straight to zero. They seem to then accumulate moisture up to 100%... and then go to 0% again. Is this because of the freezing temperatures, or something else, or am I facing a glitch that will kill my crops when I start planting in a few ingame weeks?

Looks like one of the wiki pages actually makes a trampoline block as an example.

Great idea!

I always have to go collect sticks. Not the hardest thing in the game, but I can farm wood, I can quarry rock, mine minerals... but I don't get a whole lot of sticks. So I am thinking of taking a crack at a mod to add coppicing.

Maybe you could make a coppice by using the knife on a stump, to cut it close to the base, like is described here. Then, it would grow back regularly, with sticks and firewood you can trim off the top without digging it out. Could probably be a reskin of the cattail/papyrus that drops firewood and sticks.

Would it look better if the coppice was a billboard sprite like sugarcane or a 3d model like bamboo?

Now, my other idea is a bit bigger. The raft is slow, and I'm not great at sailing (Joy of Sailing) yet. Why don't I add a reskinned raft that is made out of metal plates, goes very fast, and has to be fueled by coal or charcoal? Depending on what the API provides, maybe this steamship could also have storage? Would it be a nightmare for the boat to have a furnace-like interface but also be rideable? Is it better to just put a pile of coal in the crafting recipe?
