6 stacks? Man, try having around 25 stacks of them, I can't find anything to do with them really! So I suppose a few Iron Golems might be in order.. Question though, if you create them, are they always friendly to you then (like a trained dog, even if you attack it) or will they turn on you if you attack them?

It would be nice if we couple place slabs just like this new stairs placement method.

Slightly OT, but it concerns the next update:

How can the Jungle and its Ocelots be applied to Minerealm? The world is already there, so how can there all of a sudden be jungle? Im tired in the head today so maybe im missing something...

Their goal is to protect the villagers. They will kill you if you attack them.

I think Intelli will be spawning in some jungle saplings? Or whatever plants are introduced in the new update.

As for the biomes, with the new update the map biomes will most likely change as has happened in previous updates. This is most noticeable in private plots which were once for example temperate, but now snowy biomes. Another thing to notice is the changes to the water colour and grass where new biomes are swamps the colours have changed.
With the next update the biome algorythmn? will change and some areas will become jungle. They won't have any new trees or changes to the landscape, but mobs related to jungles will spawn there. So I expect the Ocelots will start spawning in various areas around minerealm, potentially in terrain that isn't particularly jungle like.
Might depend on what conditions the Ocelots spawn in, such as Light levels?
Hmm I wonder what will happen if a previously ocean biome is changed to jungle? The ocean will still be there, but would we start having Ocean going Ocelots swimming about? ^^

I don't think Intelli is going to do any public realm wipes?

I lol'ed.

Thank you so much for explaing in detail. Very interesting.
