This is probably offtopic, but the state of Minecraft modding is really bad * One dude is maintaining Forge/MinecraftCodersPack/Fernflower, which powers pretty much every mod * Ad-infested forums and adfly links are the preferred way of distributing mods * The last moddable client version is 1.8.0, 1.9 is out. * Getting a mod started is really difficult, and it's not clear what should/shouldn't be in source control.…

Well Microsoft owns Minecraft. So I imagine modding will get more official support in a year. Probably a nicer API too.

Mojang have been promising this for years, nothing has ever happened and I doubt any modding api they release will have the flexibility to edit the base game that MinecraftForge has.

Ah I didn't realise cpw had come back. That's good news. By MDK do you mean Forge? MDK doesn't seem to be used except in one forum thread.

The mdk (renamed from src zip, because it no longer contained the forge source) is a zip containing a template mod, gradle buildscript, and instructions on setting up your ide, you c an download it here: http://files.minecraftforge.net/

Thanks for this, I might take a look on the weekend.

What's another way to do it? This is a hack after all, but I'm sure they'll accept pull requests.

can you use some sort of redstone contraption to interact with the containers?

Of course! We're really not working full time on this, had to make it work. I agree that one is horrible!!!

Mind = blown. Why not visualize code like this? Walking around in your API, watching the flow of data... :)

I'm not sure if this is the video i'm trying to recall, but.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B824CmVbhJ8

Maybe that would be a good way to do scripting within the game... :)

https://github.com/docker/dockercraft/issues/3 is a wonderful bug report.

Oh yes! It was so funny to read that one! :D We should start listing hilarious bug reports, I sure we're going to get quite a bunch.
