    Build beds and sleep away the night in SSP. Unclear what effect it will have in SMP, but at least it will be an actual piece of craftable furniture.

    New launcher is available now for testing!

    Here's Notch's tweet to show that is legit: http://twitter.com/#!/notch/status/38621269331025921

    Just right click the file and hit "Open with..." and slect Java SE Binary Platform, if you're on Windows. Or you can launch it from the command line. Works great and is nifty!

    Links are broken from copy paste: 1st link is here

    For the Lazy:
    When it first appears next week, building yourself a bed will mean you can skip night times by taking a nap, and jump up to catch the dawn, ready to continue your daylight explorations. That’s phase one.

    Phase two will have a larger impact on how you play. Some time next month another update will appear that means the last bed you slept in will be your new respawn point.

    Ahh shit. Looks like the forum truncated them for some reason. My bad.

    All good. Forum truncates longer URLs so they are not huge blobs of text. Thanks for posting the info. The way they are implementing it is very interesting. Might actually get me to play single player again.

    Yeah. I was exclusively single-player for about 5 months until I joined the Icrontinent. I even ended up deleting my first/only SSP world. I had done so much goofy shit in it, making rookie mistakes and being inefficient with my resource gathering and use, that I just wiped it out.

    I ended up starting a new SSP world right after the lapis lazuli patch, and it had a gorgeous spawn area. So, I've been saving the world file, completely untouhed, until I get in the mood for some single-player stuff again. :)

    Yes, Yes, YES!!

    *Lapis Lazuli now drops 4-8 pieces when mined instead of 1 in SMP.
    *Sulphur renamed back to Gunpowder
    *Players no longer glitch when standing on fences in SMP
