one of the things mentioned in the 0.7 update was NPCs to trade with. i haven;t come across any of these on the official servers.
will any of the official servers be reset when 0.8 is released?
tool/weapon belt.
right now an entire line of my inventory is devoted to pick, axe, hammer, sword, ...
having a container for these items would free-up a lot of inventory space.
i can attest to everything that @kimbuck said plus:
chopped trees have a ~30% chance of becoming phantom even if you don't hit the trunk
ladders on ships (rope or otherwise) work less than 10% of the time. i routinely have to try 10+ times before it actually works.
it never works if i am in first person
the (built-in) rope ladders to board a ship are so dysfunctional that i removed them and created a two level "porch" so i could just swim up, then take a few steps (on placed blocks) to get on the deck.
