@dafaqk99 oh that’s awesome, I forgot about that! Yeah, on the TODO it goes! As everything else though, will only be in 0.9 if there’s time.

The MCPE dev team will add water-dripping particles in 0.9x

[PCNEWS] Minecraft Snapshot 14w05a
Book copying mechanics has been altered to differentiate the original & copies of books
Activator rails can eject entities from Minecarts
Notable additions for mapmakers:
Added a spectator gamemode (/gamemode spectator). Not 100% finished.
Spectators cannot be seen by anybody but other spectators
Spectators can view inventories/etc, but not modify them
Spectators can go through any entity or block without interfering with it
Spectators can click on entities to take their camera
Spectators cannot use items, place blocks, destroy blocks or interact with blocks in any way
Spectators are only slightly buggy maybe sometimes

To get snapshots, open your launcher and press the “New Profile” button. Call it “snapshots” and check the box saying “Enable experimental development snapshots” and save. To switch to the normal version, you can select it in the dropdown at the bottom left corner of the launcher. Back up your world first or run the game on in a different folder (See the “new profile” dialog). Snapshots can corrupt your world, please backup and/or run them in a different folder from your main worlds.

[MAP] Buoyzure
Singleplayer Storyline Introduction:
Engage in an epic adventure of truth and definition as you, Griffin Engel, struggle to gain a heroic repuation and save your community from a deathly curse.
***
Multiplayer Stroyline: (Same story except altered for 2 main characters)
Griffin Engel and Lance Engel, sons of a late wealthy father, have lost hope in their lives after being left alone. When they are given a task by the Oracle in their basement, they spring into action and take advantage of the offer.
***
The download button will bring you to a dropbox page with 3 different versions of the map. You can choose from singleplayer easy mode, singleplayer hard mode, and multiplayer mode. Multiplayer mode is 2 player only. Simply click/ tap the version you want and choose “download”.
***
The rules are in the map, so without further ado, go embark on the greatest adventure in Minecraft: Pocket Edition yet!
***
Credits are at the end of the map as well.
Please do not give this map away on other websites, although you may link this MCPEUniverse link to share with friends!
***
Side Notes:
-The “Make a Wish” chest is supposed to be empty, so don’t report it as a bug please. It is symbolic.
-If the download contains a “MAC OSX” folder or something similar, just ignore it and put the world file in your minecraftworlds folder.
Updates:
Last Update- January 6th, 2014 6:49 EST
Version 1.0.2: Fixes some overly difficult climbing.
To update your existing map, simply re-download the map and drag & replace the chunks.dat file from the newly downloaded version to your existing map file.
This will reset all redstone alternatives, which should not be an issue unless you are on multiplayer and each player is on a different side of the redstone door. Feel free to break blocks if this issue occurs.
