I'm sort of new to Minecraft. What do the following blocks do?

Sponge
Redstone
Piston(and sticky)

And... what do the following enchantments do?

Infinity
Punch
Aqua Affinity
Respiration
Featherfall
Fortune
Silk Touch

Infinity: Bow can shoot again and again and doesn't use any arrows
Punch: Arrows shot by bow knock players back
Aqua affinity: Not sure.
Respiration: Lets you breathe longer underwater
Feather Falling: Take less fall damage.
Fortune: Get more stuff by breaking any of these: Giant Mushroom Block, Leaves, Coal Ore, Lapis Ore, Diamond Ore, Redstone Ore NOTE: Does not work on Gold and iron ores.
Silk touch: Get the actual Block, for ex. Ice (Currently doesn't work, will be readded in 1.3),Glass, Glass Panes, Giant Mushroom Blocks, Coal Ore, Diamond Ore, Lapis Ore, Redstone Ore Grass Blocks (Awesome!)


Note: IF you have both silk touch and Fortune on a pick, the Fortune doesn't work because the Silk Touch takes priority.

As for the blocks,
Sponges do ABSOUTELY NOTHING, can only be found in creative, and do not occur naturally.
Redstone is like a power generator. Place the dust on the ground and connect it up to something, say, a sticky piston (more on that later). Then connect it to a lever and turn it on!  big_smile  I don't know enough about it to give a detailed description, so look it up.
Pistons can push things if powered by redstone, and sticky pistons can push and pull them.

Re: Minecraft Official Topic

Alright, correct me if I'm wrong: I enchanted my helmet with Aqua Affinity, and tested out some stuff. (I have EnchantView mod.) So, it turns out Aqua Affinity makes you mine faster in water?

It still does...

... I‘m confused now. It NEEDS to have an utility.


And they could add an underwater biome, with Sponges.

No, it unfortunately doesn't soak up water.

A plugin (I think Worldguard) makes them drain water.

It does actually. Not like it did in classic though. Place a sponge in 1-high water.

Lol. It just displaces the water like every other block.

Re: Minecraft Official Topic

Pumpkins and melons need to be able to be moved by pistons.

I built a mechanism to, overtime, push the melons/pumpkins out so that instead of one patch only producing one melon and only one until harvested, it could create how ever many it can in the span of time.

I decided to turn into a test, in which ended up as a successful self-regenerating cobblestone floor. It takes a while though  tongue

Use BUD's and a downward-facing pistons to break them. Water collection system. Derp.

Does anyone need a skin? I made one for KingFanta, so I think I can take some requests.

Just tell me how you want it to be. I shall post it on my Photobucket.

I don't want to break them. The system is meant for moving melons/pumpkins so that they can be more effective in their farming over time. Items don't last long before degenerating.

Re: Minecraft Official Topic

Does anyone know of some useful redstone and piston mechanisms to install in your house?

EDIT: Found a fast, compact, auto wheat farm on the wiki that i hadn't noticed before.
