    Oh boy, let's go down the list! This list excludes performance enhancing mods, for that I usually pick a bunch from the Fabulously Optimized modpack.

    AmbientSounds: Adds sound effects such as birds, waves, dripping water in caves, etc. Very good for immersion!

    BetterF1 & BetterF3: BetterF1 let's you turn off GUI elements while still showing held items. BetterF3 lets you remove a bunch of the unneeded bits from your F3 screen.

    Bridging Mod: Adds the bedrock method of placing blocks into java. You can place blocks below the block you're standing on and you can scaffold with blocks while walking forward, among a few other little things that make building faster. Big fan of this one.

    Distant Horizons: As mentioned by others, let's you see very far into the distance.

    EffectTimerPlus: Adds small timers to the top right of the screen that indicate how long you have left on various effects. Makes it easy to keep track of how long potion effects last.

    Freecam: Detach the camera from your character to fly around and view builds. Saves a ton of time by not having to fly away to look at your project constantly.

    Freelook: Let's you hold a key to freely point your camera around you without turning your head. This lets you look around while flying an elytra and not crash into whatever you're looking at.

    Inventory Profiles Next: Let's you sort and move items more quickly.

    Lighty: My favorite mod for showing spawnable blocks.

    Shuffle: When enabled, each time you place a block your hotbar selection is randomized. This let's you fill your hotbar with a selection of blocks you want to texture with, and it will do the randomization for you quickly.

    Shulker Box Tooltip: Must have! See the contents of a shulker without putting it down and opening it.

    Xaero's Minimap/Worldmap: My preferred mapping mod. I'd literally be lost without it.

    Zoomify: Zoom zoom! Seriously, you can zoom in a lot.

    If you haven't been keeping up with all the updates and additions to the game, I'd personally grab the newest version and explore the world without looking anything up. I feel like that would give you some of the same feelings of mystery and exploring the unknown that earlier versions of minecraft had.

    Edit: Just wanted to add on, you should come check out the Tildes minecraft server, even if just for a look. We've done a lot of impressive things this time around!

    I think this was my favorite:

    My son wears an “I’m With Putin” t-shirt for the last two weeks. Since then he was beaten, spat at, thrown bottles at. I’m afraid to think what will happen, if he ever dares to leave the house.

    Yeah if you're gonna expand bulk storage anyway, just add in a slice for rockets and we can work out the best way to ferry them over afterwards.

    Hey @IsildursBane, I'm gonna add a shulker loader to the fireworks factory soon, and I'm considering having the shulkers be pumped over to community storage instead of the little shack cause there isn't much room there. I was thinking there could be a stack of chests hidden behind the wall at the end of the bulk storage hall with a dropper attached so you can press a button and get a full shulker of rockets.

    Also, @teaearlgraycold, could I trouble you for some Dragon's Breath? The only way to obtain it is by respawning the dragon, but I don't want to make a mess of the end. Pretty Pleaaassssseeee!!!! It's for the new shop in the mall, Pinkerton's, they sell perfume and the lingering potion bottles look like perfume bottles. :D

    Edit: New shop is completely done!
    Edit2: Bane, I added the leftover Dragon's Breath in the potion donations box.
    Edit3: Long day of minecraft today, started on another shop for the mall.

    Time to start adding shulkerbox crafters everywhere! I already set one up down in community storage at the end of the hall (which someone gussied up with a shulker head for sound!), and I also made another by the Hoglin farm.

    I plan to add a few more in places they might come in handy:
    Tree Farm
    Piglin Barter Station
    Sand Duper
    ??Suggestions??

    Hey all! The Tildestown Mall is coming along nicely! The first shop, "Boots 4 Feet" is now celebrating it's grand opening!

    If anyone wants to claim a space to build their own "shop" go for it! I'm going to slowly work on filling the others in as I continue building the roof and movie theatre. I recommend thinking of what the shop will sell, then finding a good palette of blocks to use on blockpalettes.com

    I sure hope I didn't pick a bad place to build!

    I know dynmap has/had that feature. I think there was some discussion about it a while back, but I don't remember why we didn't enable it this time around. It wasn't that great though, because there was no way to view chat history, so you had to watch it constantly to be part of the discussion.

    Having all this concrete ready on hand will be excellent when it comes time to start decorating shops in the mall!

    I can't watch the videos mentioned, the links aren't working for me. However, if you're trying to push an armor stand inside of a fence, that should definitely be possible with the armor stand book.

    I was thinking on this issue and it's possible myself or someone else unloaded the chunks before the chunk loaders could activate. If you drop items into the above ground input chest, I bet it takes at least 20 seconds or more before they activate. How difficult would it be to run a redstone line to the surface for a 'safe to leave' indicator light?

    Yeah, totally understandable. Sometimes a thing just doesn't work.

    I took out the smooth stone for the mall, however there were blocks that got sorted into the wrong places again. I want and reset all the filters and removed the incorrectly sorted blocks, then put them in again to test, however I found that items are still accumulating up in the filter chests. I meant to tag @IsildursBane on this issue again this morning, but ran out of time before work.

    Right now I'm planning to have the back section be a movie theater, so that will be fairly easy to make and fill a lot of the space. On the other hand, I'm pretty sure I'm gonna add another layer up top making for three floors' worth of shops in the other section. I'm guessing right now there will be room for about 21 different shops.

    Don't worry! I haven't forgotten my tower room! It's such a small area to work with, and I want it to be cool. I think I have an idea, though, so I'll clear that off my todo list soon!

    It's a huge square, so I'd make it look like a shulker head! Would be relatively easy to build too I'd think.

    I'm not sure what kind of theme to go for. Any suggestions?
