New Release! ( BTW V4.37)

[OlbaiD]

Thanks for the update :)

[Elensaar]

Thanks FC! Look forward to protecting my wooden towers... :)

[Ozziie]

As I write this I hear thunder in the background.. fitting huh? :)

Thanks for the update! I've got some heads to skewer :)

[xou816]

A quick thank you for those amazing features :)
I have started a new survival world since there have been quite a few major changes to the mod, and I'm enjoying it so far. Well thank you! (PS: I entered "Flowerchild" as the seed and it is pretty awesome, it features a village and an almost open air mineshaft in the swamp biome)

[Gormador]

Thanks for the update FC ! Nice work on the lightning rods ;-)

[shifty]

Thanks mate!

[SterlingRed]

Sweet! This solves a problem I didn't have yet! My next project is a villager...village built around and feeding into my mob spawner. I wanted to predominantly use wood for its construction and was contemplating various fire preventative methods. This is perfect! Absolutely amazing release yet again and more than a few companion cubes shall be burnt in celebration!

Thanks man!

[STrRedWolf]

Niiice. I was running low (not really) on some stuff. Plus I need to add another idea to my "mod-to-the-mod" project...

[Aradanwen II]

does anyone know wether lighting rods attract lighting to themselves or to an area around them?

[Battlecat]

Fantastic update. Thanks for the updates to metal drops, I'll start testing to confirm the rate changes asap.

Also, pleasant surprise that the mob head pike is actually primarily a lightning rod! I appreciate the added defense for windmills and wooden structures!

[EpicAaron]

Time to re-animate the dead with lightning.

[asjova]

Woo, an excellent treat to come back home to after the holiday!

[Stormweaver]

Yay!

The lightning rods have inspired me to now put spiked pits in and around any drawbridges and such. I love not knowing what I want until it's given as something else >.<

[FlowerChild]

Hehe...while working on them I was contemplating providing a fall damage bonus if you land on one :)

I want to take more time to think about that one though, as it may drastically impact mob-trap design.

A "b" version has been released to fix a crash-bug when right clicking on wolves with an empty hand:

I'll be updating all the other links momentarily to point to this one.

[Battlecat]

Good catch FC, thanks as always for your quick response to the serious bugs.

[FlowerChild]

No worries. Crash bugs must die :)

[dawnraider]

Thanks for your hard work, and for getting that bug fixed so quickly!

It does? I have a world with Flowerchild as the seed and it took me to an island with a single tree in the middle of a large biomes ocean :p can't remember if I used a capital 'C' though...

Looking forward to heads on spikes ;) this'll be brilliant for one of my favourite builds: haunted houses! Also means I'll be able to use wool for barber-pole lighthouses again :D

[crackedcompactdisc]

AWESOME! I can't wait to start a new let's play.

[Ribky]

I've been in semi-lurk mode the last couple of weeks for some reason... but I just wanted to pop in and say thank you for the update. As always lots of awesome stuff. :) I fully intend to Frankenstein up my base with the lightning rods.
