The Doors! I mean "The Birds"!!

Hi, I know this is possibly a Temp. Page, but it's occurred to me about the Doors. Yeah, I know this is - for Bug-fixing - supposed to be a "The Birds! the Birds!!" (movie Ref.) pre-release, as opposed to one All about balancing.

But it occurs that Stacking 64 Doors vs. 16 Signs (That was an awesome Update, for their production) Stack-able is perhaps a bit over-kill? Signs only take up 1 X 1, Doors a 1 X 2-high, space, but I know this is being just a little nitpicky. Especially since most-obviously Villages NEED Wooden Doors!!! - in Buld, er Bulk.

This will definitely make the over-kill of Zombies' recent unpleasant mayhem be significantly easier, to deal with. Anyhoo, some obscure Math about the Crafting of Wooden Doors (6 Planks for 3, this pre-release, covering a 3 X 2-high, area of Blocks, so "6," total), vs. Wooden Trapdoors (6 Wooden Planks for 2, covering a 2 X 1, area of Blocks, so "2" total: that's 1 /3rd the area of coverage, but no big deal [Wooden Trapdoors, Also already Stacked to 64]; it's just that Twice the area, 2-high, is covered by a Wooden Door as Wooden Trapdoor).

Bold text== Crafting the new “Stones” (I’ll call them) ==

List: Block of Quartz = 4 Nether Quartz.

2 Granite are made from Nether Quartz + (Diorite: 2 Nether Quartz + 2 Cobble) = 3 Nether Quartz (and 2 Cobble) for 2 Granite.

2 Andesite = 2 Nether Quartz + 4 Cobble.

2 Diorite: 2 Nether Quartz (and 2 Cobble).

For Nether Quartz to product, it’s thus 4:1, 3:1, 2:1, and 1:1.

There’s also a 2:1 for Cobble to Andesite.

Basically, a Block of Quartz is 4X the Nether Quartz cost of Diorite, Granite is 3X, and Andesite is 2X. 1 Andesite is 2 Cobble vs. none for a Quartz Block, and Both Granite and Diorite are each 1 Cobble for 1.

The “holes” created by this are Cobble/Stone itself being “0” Nether Quartz. And of course a Block of Quartz is the “0” Cobble. Yilante 50.1.134.10 09:12, 10 January 2014 (UTC)
