Talk:Desert pyramid

We should find out of monsters can spawn in the loot rooms. If they can, this could cause un-called for explosions. -- Fishrock123  (Talk)(c) 14:09, 24 May 2012 (UTC)
 * They can. I found pyramid with already exploded trap. I think, adding torches to generated room can help. — MiiNiPaaT 14:12, 24 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Dang. We need to let Mojang know so that can be fixed. :/ -- Fishrock123  (Talk)(c) 14:13, 24 May 2012 (UTC)

Pyramids can also be found buried in sand, as if they were Abandoned. (Seed: '2025899048' at x:-460, z:680)

Another one can be found on the seed 'Desert' at x:212, y:71, z: 330. It's half-buried in sand. You can also find a mobspawner on the surface (x:253, y:63, z:182) next to a NPC village with sandhouses(x:257, y:70, z:111) (contributed by 1addy1)

The first one also has a dungeon near spawn.--108.13.174.66 18:53, 24 May 2012 (UTC)

Rename
I think this page should be renamed Desert Castle, as it is more like a castle than a pyramid, and for n00bs 'pyramids' would look more like Incan or Egyptian pyramids, not at all like this.From Moi, Ajc_1254 18:16, 24 May 2012 (UTC)
 * I don't see why they should stop being called pyramids, unless you want to rename creepers to hissy-exploding-thingy, and diamonds to super-rare-and-valuable-ore

 * Does it look like a pyramid to you? Not to me. And you? Really, you have to be sarcastic like a douche about creepers and diamonds? That's not cool. Your making me sound like a spoiled brat who doesn't get his way. I'm just saying IT'S NOT A PYRAMID! It really is a castle with a pyramid style roof. Do you have the snapshot and have seen it, or are you a no-snapshot crybaby who is ripping on someone who just wants a rename for a good reason?From Moi, Ajc_1254 18:44, 24 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Deep breaths there buddy. He was just trying to make a semi-humorous example. I don't think it was supposed to be at your expense at all. Back on to the topic at hand I do agree with Ajc 1254. It definitely does not look like a pyramid. It also is not mentioned by any of the developers as a pyramid. For now I think we should call it something less descriptive like "Desert/sand temple". We should also find someone to look through the source code to find out if they are named in the coding. --Moxxy 20:48, 24 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Well, considering how a good portion of it is a pyramid, I believe that we could keep the name as-is. Also, pyramids can have other structures connected to it, as is the case with the Nubian pyramids. 50.136.155.163 23:31, 24 May 2012 (UTC)
