User talk:Munin295

Feel free to just call me Munin (without the numbers).

Regarding my Redstone edit
Thank you for your explanation, Munin. I have had my work on Wikipedia removed many times, and it was not customary for them to provide any reason as to why they did so. Your courtesy is therefore greatly appreciated.

I acknowledge that I was in error.

New mod for schematics?
Just saw this on the forum: Schematica Haven't tried it, because I've been focusing on Thaumcraft lately, but probably worth investigating. --MentalMouse42 (talk) 01:12, 22 February 2014 (UTC)


 * Well, I don't use MCEdit, schematic files, or any mods, so this one's all yours! : )

Signature
How did you create your book/quill + pickaxe signature?

 * A bit new here, just realized you could look at the source ._. Feel like an idiot now. Thanks.

 * So can/do I paste this in the signature box on preferences?


 * Yep (without the code and nowiki tags). You'll see the new version on the Prefs page when you save the prefs. It won't change any of your previous signatures, but it's not considered good practice to go back and change them (history is history).

 * Is there any reason




 * doesn't work in signatures? It seems like a better way to make them and the images are aligned correctly(er).

 * Transclusions are forbidden in signatures, and substitutions are discouraged.


 * &mdash;munin &middot; Grid_Book_and_Quill.png Grid_Stone_Pickaxe.png &middot; 02:57, 1 May 2014 (UTC)


 * So what do substitutions mean? Does that mean the template is pregenerated or something? Sorry to bug you so much.

 * No worries.
 * With a transclusion, the template code stays on the page and gets substituted every time. So if you change the template, the transcluded content will change to match. But with a substitution, the template code gets replaced on the page by the template's output in the code (rather than just in the page rendering), so it will never change again and always reflect what the template was when the substitution was made. So a substitution isn't as big a security risk, because the template never gets called again, but it's still discouraged in signatures.
 * You do a substitution like this:.

Content duplication
This edit duplicates content from the Chunk format page. This makes it harder to maintain the wiki because changes now have to be made in two separate locations. Instead, just link to it on the Chunk format page. As an alternative solution I can split out all the various formats on the Chunk format page into templates and then both pages can refer to the template instead.

 * This is probably better discussed on the style guide talk page where I already raised the issue and KnightMiner is already considering a template approach.


 * But let's not make decisions too quickly. It's important to be able to play around with ideas and see if they're helpful. &mdash;munin &middot; Grid_Book_and_Quill.png Grid_Stone_Pickaxe.png &middot; 21:33, 4 September 2014 (UTC)


 * I see you've brought this up at chunk format too. I agree that's the correct place to discuss restructuring that page, I meant style guide was the place to talk about adding a new section to pages or adding more info to the Data Values section. &mdash;munin &middot; Grid_Book_and_Quill.png Grid_Stone_Pickaxe.png &middot; 21:53, 4 September 2014 (UTC)

Block States for Water, Lava and Fire
Hello!

I'd been using a Debug world in F3 mode to help add to the Block States page; seemed pretty obvious. However, you can't get block info when hovering over fire or liquids. How could I get those states? I noticed when I first came to the page, there was already an entry for flowing liquids, but I couldn't verify it.
