screenshots?
It would be good if we could get screenshots, or, even better, video examples for all or most of these. CruelNoise 22:06, 14 September 2010 (CDT)

On flooding - In the multiplayer server I'm on, doors block water whether open or closed. Disappointment. :'( CaptainGoodtimes 16:23, 24 September 2010 (CDT)

Redstone Melting Ice
Redstone torches don't melt ice. I use them to light up my ice house. Was there a recent update that made them melt ice? (I use an old Minecraft.exe) EDIT:--PurpleKiwi 22:??, 27 October 2010 (UTC)
 * not sure, but I'd say so. I mean, they have a video of it, and you cannot link it to anything other than redstone. the interval was irratic, and it started/stopped at the times the switch was pulled. so, it seems impossible to not melt it.--Kizzycocoa 22:52, 27 October 2010 (UTC)


 * Forgot your sig there, PurpleKiwi. Also, yeah, I've done a test in which I left a redstone torch sitting next to an ice block for two minecraft days, the only place for water to flow was into the torch. When I came back the torch was still there. Even so, that video is pretty convincing. CyborgDragon 17:53, 27 October 2010 (CDT)


 * I have a winter world the current Alpha version (1.1.2_01) and redstone torches have not melted the ice. I've set them there for quite some time (~5 mins) surrounded by ice with no melting. The video shows 1.1.2 (no _01), is that a slightly older version that perhaps behaved differently? --Lordebon 18:35, 27 October 2010 (CDT)


 * I can now confirm that redstone torches do not melt ice, at all. It is the light levels that actually melt the ice, and the sky light, having it's own fancy light levels, won't, even though it's the brightest light. As for older versions with ice melting, no, they did not have ice melting from redstone torches. CyborgDragon 23:44, 27 October 2010 (UTC)
