Talk:Nether Reactor

Use?
I watched the video and this seems to be a way into the Nether. The Zombie Pigs are somewhat derpy, but the guy spawned in an obsidian room with Pigmen attacking him. Stpehen


 * It's a bit clearer in the second part of the video, but the reactor builds an obsidian cube around itself; there is no separate Nether dimension. -- Orthotope 05:53, 15 November 2012 (UTC)

Something that doesn't make much sense is that although it requires at least an iron pickaxe to mine diamond, and at least a stone pickaxe to mine iron, it only takes a wooden pickaxe to mine this. It doesn't make much sense, unless this is just vandalism or misinformation, why a wooden pickaxe can mine something made out of iron and diamond. It's almost like saying an iron pickaxe can mine obsidian. #trigger_hurt (I 18:57, 27 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Probably just an oversight... remember, they only just fixed the same issue for the emerald block in PC Minecraft. Report it on Mojira? --Mental Mouse 22:10, 27 November 2012 (UTC)

Reactor spawns gold?
I haven't seen the reactor spawn gold, but the spawned pigmen drop gold... is this a mistake, or is spawned gold just really rare?

What happens if you light up the reactor?
That is, as soon as that room appears, start placing torches. Does that interfere with the Pigmen spawning? --Mental Mouse 22:11, 27 November 2012 (UTC)
