Episode 114: Logical Changes to Minecraft

<p>In this episode, DuDs and Jimbo discuss snapshot 21w38a for Minecraft 1.18, Caves &amp; Cliffs, which includes more ore distribution changes such as Copper ore generating up to Y95 (as originally designed) and Lapis now generates in blobs, like other ores (instead of being spread out). Mojang has also added new simulation distance settings to go along with render distance, and the game now handles collisions differently when the player is sprinting. Plus, we have a listener comment from ol about how mining will work in 1.18, they ask what would be the best way to find diamonds, would it be just by exploring or would you set up different strip mines at different elevations. Also, DuDs and Jimbo discuss a video from a past guest, LogicalGeekBoy, as he responds to Dinnerbone with his 20 small ideas to Improve Minecraft.</p> <p><br></p> <p>Minecraft 1.18 Snapshot 21w38a: <a href="https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/article/minecraft-snapshot-21w38a">https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/article/minecraft-snapshot-21w38a</a></p> <p>xisumavoid snapshot video: <a href="https://youtube.com/watch?v=4WEX_ICnZHE">https://youtube.com/watch?v=4WEX_ICnZHE</a></p> <p>Bedrock old-world conversion video: <a href="https://youtube.com/watch?v=Cy44MK2LUgM&amp;t=107s">https://youtube.com/watch?v=Cy44MK2LUgM&amp;t=107s</a></p> <p>Logic's 20 small ideas video: <a href="https://youtube.com/watch?v=U6fVIkzhybg">https://youtube.com/watch?v=U6fVIkzhybg</a></p> <p><br></p> <p>Thank you to our Milk level Patrons: aubni, ChiefBigBear, Crock, FragileRock, ohbeep, StoneFigure and viperoustuna.</p> <p><br></p> <p>Discord: <a href="https://discord.gg/gqnKyeZ">https://discord.gg/gqnKyeZ</a></p> <p>Patreon: <a href="https://patreon.com/thewitheringeffect">https://patreon.com/thewitheringeffect</a></p> <p>Website: <a href="http://thewitheringeffect.com/">http://thewitheringeffect.com/</a></p> <p>E-Mail: <a href="mailto:podcast@thewitheringeffect.com">podcast@thewitheringeffect.com</a></p> <p>Voice Message: <a href="https://anchor.fm/thewitheringeffect/mess
