Being a decorations addict: YES!
And indeed. It makes archery ranges possible.

Pretty sure there is a good reason paintings act as they do now (despawn.)
Can't quite put my finger on it though...

I put a painting in my house several months ago, it's still there. I have no idea what you guys are talking about....

The problem is that they are an entity, and are treated the same way as mobs by Intelli's mob mechanism. Basically, they are like an animal, all flattened out, then shoved on a wall. Unfortunately, that's animal cruelty, and none of us want that.

In a sense this. They don't register as a block and are not protected by the block protections. Getting them to a point where they were protected would take a bunch of coding I seriously doubt Intelli would want to bother with. Don't expect paintings back any time soon.

Paintings are the same as having a zombie pinned to your wall, think about it like that.

isnt there an way to make mobs and paintings diffrent in coding?
