Minecraft Weekend

[Thorin]

I explored the Nether a bit, too, and thank you to whoever put down cobblestone paths to mark the way.  If you hadn't done that, I would've gotten lost!

I have a text file with the coordinates of all my portals stored in it.  If I get "temporarily geographically confused" I can make for the nearest portal.

Hmm, me too.  I have the overworld and nether coordinates.  Although in my case it was more a matter of writing down where I built the overworld ones so I could perfect-match the location in the nether.  I wish there was an easy way to find the portals (or even just obsidian), then I could go perfect-place the rest of them.  Although I don't know if people would like that I moved their portals...

[Mr. Analog]

I used to be able to find my way back through co-ordinates (0,0) to my origin portal but then someone disassembled it...

I haven't had any time to play portal mechanic, you are more than welcome to replace the portal and work out any conflicts.

No worries, I no longer to go the Nether without leaving myself a trail of torches or cobble

The first few times though was scary, the only way I got back was through using co-ordinates.
