FOSS gamedev and creative worlds

Hello everybody!

Gambit requested a quicksand mod, so here is my implemention of it:

Quicksand randomly appears in deserts and it looks similar to the surrounding sand. So be carefull!
To dig it, you need a shovel and you get normal desertsand.
If you want to make quicksand, you can craft it by combining a waterbucket and desertsand. You get the bucket back.

Thank you. :-)

nice. as an idea, why not have a beach version of it too?

A beach version wouldn't make sense because the sand near water is different than sand from the desert.

which is why you make it use the sand texture. It's basically cloning the code already there, and switching it form desert sand to sand.

No, I mean really. In the real world, beach sand is more stable than desert sand.

it also is exposed to water, making it a touch more realistic. that is a key part of quick sand.

then again this is a voxel game that we are playing.
