Talk:Cocoa Beans

Uses
Okay, the uses, as far as what I've seen are, could be to make Chocolate Cake later on, or make Brown Wool. If you have any more ideas, feel free to post them here. --Alanydor 23:40, 13 January 2011 (UTC)


 * Just a quick question, is Cocoa Beans spelled wrong on purpose? I saw an edit changing "Cocoa" to "Coco" so I figured I would ask. --Firewolf34 05:24, 14 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Yes, to quote the edit summary of one of Barracuda's edits: "It's called "Coco Beans" in the en_US.lang file of Minecraft" - SoNick (Talk | Contribs) 05:38, 14 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Good. I'm glad I asked before I changed anything. Also, I noticed the item IDs for the Coco Beans are the same as the Ink Sack's Item IDs, although this is probably because Coco Beans have been removed... Firewolf34 05:43, 14 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Sort of; the Item IDs are the same [and if I understand correctly they're the same for the other dyes as well], but which dye the item actually is is determined by the variable that most inventory editors reported as "damage." Unless, of course, I've misunderstood the discussion about them; I haven't tried hacking the game myself so I can't speak from experience. - SoNick (Talk | Contribs)
 * Ah, I see now. It was probably just coincidence that the game chooses Ink Sacs when decimal 351 is spawned, possibly because Ink Sacs were first in the code or something... Anyways, thanks for the help! Firewolf34 04:10, 15 January 2011 (UTC)
 * It's because items start off with a damage value of 0, and 0 is for inc sac. Changing the damage value changes the type of dye. LB 00:38, 21 February 2011 (UTC)
 * I maked the Brown Wool,you can just craft it like other dyes. The Dark Killer
 * I did too. can any one post this? Grhaal 21:36, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

A reference to the tweet would be nice.

= Planned/Removed? = I was just openly wondering whether this page belonged in the 'removed' section, as it's something that was never really playable, but is planned to be added to the game in future. It's pretty vague though, what with that the quiver never had a use and the fact that lanterns may never exist. Troagador 20:36, 15 January 2011 (UTC)

For future development it would be good if they were some sort of seed you could obtain from hoeing ground rather than being unobtainable. Chappens 03:29, 12 April 2011 (UTC)

Before they were removed...
How were Coco Beans even obtained? By killing what/mining what/etc? LB 00:39, 21 February 2011 (UTC)

Cocoa beans were added to the game as unobtainium. They haven't actually been removed, they are however unobtainable without cheating/hacking. it's not as blue as it looks 04:53, 21 February 2011 (UTC)


 * They are obtainable. You get them from dungeon chests. Have you even read the page!? Ary31415 01:31, 4 June 2011 (UTC)

= The name =

They're called Cocoa Beans. Let's change the article, shall we? --Ktamkun 19:27, 21 February 2011 (UTC)

Item ID
Does someone actually know which ID this item have ?
 * Sign please, and The Id changed with 1.4's update. it preivously shared the dye slot, 351, and had the damage value of 13. but now ink has that. Animalbrad 16:35, 31 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Item ID is still 351, Data value is 3 RFairney 21:31, 31 March 2011 (UTC)
 * In all honesty, Cocoa beans should have their own ID in order for people to have Role-Playing servers, as they cannot use /give to get Cocoa Beans; only ink sacs, and that doesn't really work well. Alanydor 19:00 9 April 2011 (UTC)

Does anyone know how to type out the item id + the damage value? How exactly the /give command is typed out because I can't get it :( (Can it be gotten through /give?) --play150 07:27, 23 May 2011 (UTC)
 * You can't. At least not with /give. You also cannot spawn the things to make it, unlike other dyes. This means the only way to get it is with toomanyitems. Therefore, it is likely that if someone has 64 cocoa beans, they have toomanyitems or xray.


 * TMI had a patch saying you can't spawn stuff without being an op. Also, it uses the /give command, so cocoa beans are a rare thing on SMP non-bukkit. On my server we collect them and we have this contest to see who has the most brown wool. we jump at the sight of brown sheep. We are carzy about nonspawnables.
