I have a Minecraft PE question (non survival mode) - My 7 year old plays this on her tablet and I sometimes join her on the kindle. One of her friends has managed to wander quite far away from the little town she's built on the Kindle and I can't get back.

Is there a way to locate the other player on PE as it's driving me insane. I've got a compass and I think I'm heading back in A direction, I'm just not sure where...

Can anyone help?


I'm fairly sure the PE minecraft world is only 1000x1000 blocks. If the player at the 'home' build a tall piller, it will make it easier to find.
Can you make a map (compass in middle of 8 papers) in PE?

Or, kill yourself and you should re spawn at base or at the bed?

The first 2 levels of the cactus farm are finished and it is depositing cactus at the bottom of the main channel. I'll add some more levels when I get more time.

Any chance I can be white listed, I'll be honest and say I probably won't build a lot, but would love to have a walk round and see some of the massive builds going on. My mc name is the same as on here


Cheers

Guys, I just went into the tree farm to top up the bonemeal and noticed that the pistons aren't pushing out all the tree trunks. I took a look round back but couldn't get it working. Would someone be able to take a look when they are next on? I left any spare bits in the sapling chest.

Yeah i broke it the other day, i need to replace some blocks with obsidian as the pistons pushed them all out of place..im gunna look for a better design as that ones a bit old and could be a lot more efficient - Working on a witch spawner atm so wont get round to it for a while

Fair enough, it still works fine but with 2 blocks sitting above the sapling.

There's a random cobble block stuck in the middle which is preventing some from dropping and also your water streams are messed up so cactus isn't flowing to the middle. There's a way of doing them so they don't create an infinite source.

@ LPSN, did that water source on top of your base freeze on its own or did you replace it with ice? I've removed it and put another water source in but 15 mins later it's still water..

I knew about the water flow but have no idea of how to fix it. Tried numerous variants of water and left it at the best one I could make.

Fixed. Needs tidying up but it's done. Also needs a glass wall round it or something as a lot of the cactus is landing on the ledge.

Brilliant thanks, did you find a map or where water needs placing as I may do another farm at some point to try it out? I'm going to be busy making glass to put up.

Place a 4 block square in the corner of your floor. Do the water streams for all the sides next. Now pour one water on the corner block of your 4 and then remove the other 3 blocks. Repeat that for each corner. It must be done in that order otherwise you'll make the entire floor a stagnant lake of water and that's a real pain to fill in again.

You'll see how I've done it when you next log in. I've had to remove the corner cactus plants as you'd built the floor too close.

Easiest way for you is probably a Skype party call.

Blaze spawner xp farm is done
follow the signs in the nether

Be careful in the large room where it is built as we had a ghast in there today. We will try and make the room smaller

The place where you go to farm is safe (hopefully)

There are splash potions in chest for killing blaze after they have been auto crushed

if you stand in the marked spot the spawn rates and xp are very good

Have fun!
