  1. if they have a use flag yes they can
  2. it looks like the utopia shop forgot to get updated with the animals
  3. does it cost money in wild
  4. Uhm... Mo Creature's Mod much? :confused:;
  5. I think it was meant to be funny :)
  6. Other worlds in this case refer to wilderness and nether. :)
  7. I'm not sure why mooshrooms cost more than villagers. Mooshrooms can be bred with wheat and as far as I know there's currently no way to breed villagers. This would tend to make villagers much more rare since they can only be found in villages and the empire shop. I guess the admins figured this would make villagers more accessible to everyone, but it runs counter to my Economics background.

    Anyway, on a similar note, I went to a pristine village that I discovered a few weeks ago and abducted 5 villager slaves. So I have now become a slave trader... thanks EMC.

  8. Dark_Liz made a (very detailed) chart with a base rate and everything, haha. The costs were mainly decided on the usefulness over the rareness. Villagers while more rare, don't do anything. Mushroom cows can provide you with nourishment which can save your life! :p

  9. Good point about the utility of the item. In the real world; utility, value, cost and price are usually all linked (although clearly with some huge exceptions--really what's the utility of Van Gogh's Sunflowers--especially in some of our societies where all of our base needs are more than met) so economics makes a bit more sense.

    Exciting update to the Empire regardless.

    [edit]Knowing about this a few days ago would have made for some spectacular insider trading, by the way. Fortunately, it seems you guys are really good at selecting staff..
  10. Finally! Thank you so much Justin! No more long wheat deliveries. I bought like 4 sheep, and they got stuck in a deep fountain that was on the town's property. The fountain had no water in it and the ice block could not be broken. Good thing this came. I was about to ask for wheat flags.
  11. This has created a huge frenzy. At the begining of today you could get a cow for50 but now its 150. I sold a cow and chicken egg for 3 diamonds
  12. @JustinGuy I bought a villager egg in smp1 and tried to spawn it in smp2. This was before i read this post so i had no clue that villagers were unable to spawn in smp2 through spawn eggs. Any way i can regain the rupees back. I bought it from the empire shop and my name is aBrokenShard
  13. Could someone go into my pen and stick galore and steal all my animals?
  14. this is epic Justin this is better so i can store my animals thanks justin :)
  15. With this (and zeppelin mod) I can make the Ark!!! :D
  16. This needs a more awesome name, like Eggspecto Patronum!!!

  17. the zeppelin mod is beast i have it in my single player its awesome that u put the block down and it can make ur thing that u mad fly xD
  18. They don't do anything yet... But in the 1.2 update you will be able to make an iron golem farm with them to farm iron bars. Then they could become VERY valuable.
  19. Why should it cost in the wild? this isnt really fair to people who live in the wild.

    I don't see what gain there is in having a charge, when 95% of the players will be using it in town anyways...

    This just makes the feature completely useless to us.. when I first saw it I thought "ohh this will make moving my animal pen alot easier" now, useless :(

    Can this fee be removed from wilderness please?

    Also why remove /purchase? again hurts us that live in the wild. /purchase was greatly useful for starting my animal farm.
