Its called the little block mod for minecraft:D found it today and fell in love with it..
had to go through and learn to downgrade minecraft to get it to work. but leave a comment after watching the video and tell me what you think, as far as if minetest could handle this^_^
in my eyes no clone will come close until they have something similar. i cant seem to stop playing0_0

the mesecon possibilitys......

i dont think so

something that takes up 512 blocks cubed could take up just one block...

theres even a 1/4 block mod for minecraft.

not as cool but still.

Code It! seriously, learn f****** C/C++ and do it yourself. there is TONS of tutorials around there, for free, take your time, learn the basics, etc.

Talk like that wont make anyone go out of their way to write your mod.

Besides, i wouldn't touch a java game with a ten foot pole (or 4 gigs < ram)

Uhm... Maybe it's another topic, but maybe Minecraft works with more blocks that we think. Minecraft has two classes of blocks: "User's blocks" [I'll call them U-Blocks] and "System Block" [S-Blocks].

U-blocks are a space of 512 S-Blocks and the "units of measurement" for players. Really, propeties are in S-Blocks (this the reason of steps and the walkable space in doors). Now, in minetest, U-Blocks are the same than S-Blocks. Maybe, work in a fork that develop this in minetest help to new improvements. Is this reduce the numbers of blocks in minetest (+- 31000 to 3875) or increse (+- 31000 to 248000)? Gods of coding must tell us hahaha.

Code my modXD what makes you think that's why I posted this topic?? Lolz it's just to throw the idea out man. I'm not asking for someone to do this. It's just a thought. I have this mod on minecraft. And with Optifine anyone has the computing power to play minecraft.

That's very interesting. Good idea with the reduced area. I posted a topic on my mod idea thread about making a planet like surface or rounded planet to play on. Differing sizes for low and high spec computers. But ya good idea:D
