Talk:Daylight cycle/Archive 1

Considering the info on dusk is right the resulting night light level would be: 15 - 90/10 = 6, not 4. --Slider2k 05:44, 16 December 2010 (CST)

is it worth mentioning the watch from the upcoming haloween update?--Tnarg 18:42, 21 October 2010 (CDT)


 * Worth a mention once it goes in, not really enough info to put on the page yet IMHO. --Lordebon 03:16, 22 October 2010 (UTC)

Merge?
I think this page, along with the "Sun" and "Moon" page, should be merged. They share a lot of information, and it is confusing having the three seperate articles. Legend 16:13, 20 April 2011 (UTC)
 * I agree. Sun and moon could both show up in this article. MoonBeans (u-t-c) 13:13, 19 May 2011 (UTC)

Page Rename.
The current name not only makes the page a sub-page of day, but is also not capitalized. I suggest that this page is moved to the title 'time'. MoonBeans (u-t-c) 13:16, 19 May 2011 (UTC)


 * You're right. Maybe "Time of Day" would be a better name? --Technoman7 18:11, 30 July 2011 (UTC)


 * This is a gross improper use of the forward slash. The proper naming of the phrase is day-night cycle.--72.19.90.31 15:18, 23 September 2011 (UTC)

Incorrect data?
With the clock, we have a better idea of when the moment of sunset/sunrise is - it's when the day-night line is straight up. I'm sure from gameplay that the world has darkened some before that moment. This article states that there is 10 minutes of full daylight, which can't be correct. Yomikoma 15:51, 8 June 2011 (UTC)

Beta 1.8 Pre-Release Creative - Time Speedup
While I was playing Creative in the Beta 1.8 pre-release, I found an NPC village and wanted to take a screenshot from a perfect vantage point in the bar. I forgot which key to press, so I tried F7. The sun was setting at the time. Suddenly it went dark. I looked out the window, and the stars were whizzing by, but visibly slowing down until they got back to normal speed. It seems that pressing F7 speeds up the day/night cycle, and pressing it multiple times speeds it up more. Then it gradually slows down back to normal speed. Pressing F6 makes time go backwards. I think that this information should be put on this page. Pitzik4 17:41, 10 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Lol just found out about that feature? Notch used that feature at the Pax demo. But anyway I do agree, I also think that new horizon colors and the fact that moonlights makes everything slightly blue should be added to. Jtlcr777 17:44, 10 September 2011 (UTC)
 * I didn't look at PAX. But, I'm glad you agree. I'm proof that some people wouldn't know. Pitzik4 02:31, 11 September 2011 (UTC)

Which is correct?
The page under measurement says 19.2 minutes is a minecraft day, but earlier on the page says it's 20 minutes. Which one is correct? Cool12309(Talk 01:00, 6 November 2011 (UTC)

What about Slimes ?
DayTime: … Creepers are the only naturally-spawned hostile Overworld mobs that are unaffected by sunlight.

But slimes are also unaffected, also naturally-spawned …

Timelapse bug?
The other day I took the latest update,. It contained several bugs, which I'm not going to bore you with, but one, though, since it is of interest to this article. You see, I had played until my computer entered standby mode. Then, when I reopened it a few hours later, I looked to the sky, and the Sun moved with tremendious haste! And that wasn't it, the cows in my farm ran like they had inhaled kilograms of concentrated heroine. Then, I dived into the water, and drowned before I could blink! Cooking wood was speeded, everything. Except for myself. I was still the same, unhyped Player. Is this a bug?
 * That happens when you forget to pause the game. Minecraft5025 19:30, 22 August 2012 (UTC)

There seems to be some confusion
Appearantly, there are some who has written that a Minecraft month is 30 days long. That is wrong, and has now been corrected.--85.27.161.163 20:29, 23 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Actually, modern months aren't tied to the phase of the moon anymore, and redefining a month as 8 days is pretty drastic. Note that there is also a "Minecraft year" listed, and the game doesn't have seasons or other indication of a yearly cycle.   Reverting.  --Mental Mouse 21:11, 23 January 2013 (UTC)
