The video game Minecraft is mainly a sandbox video game, like SimCity where most of the fun comes from being able to create items in-game to do certain things. Crafting is the ability to create items and objects in the Minecraft computer game world.
There are two different types of crafting, the initial 2×2 crafting grid you start out with, and the larger 3×3 grid you can use after you create a workbench. The workbench is where the majority of crafting game objects will happen, hardly anything can be made with the 2×2 grid.
Some items have durability and wear out over time. For instance a wooden pickaxe will wear out much quicker than a metal pickaxe. Crafting is essential in Minecraft to stay alive in the computer game. You can build things like doors and structures and, most-of-all, have loads and loads of fun. These crafting recipes will work in both the computer version of the game, the mobile game version and the Xbox 360 version.

You do realize that emerald is exceedingly weak compared to diamond,right? the only other material(in real life,anyhow) that comes close to diamond is Titanium, which is the strongest metal on earth. To my knowledge at least. I do know,however,that emerald isnt very strong compared to things like, say, corundum(Metal), rubies, or steel.

You know, a rather general good idea is the creation of alloys for increased durability. a larger buffer-zone between iron and diamonds,so to speak. Alloys like say, coal and iron for steel, or gold and iron for a superconductive metal of sorts for traps or anti-mob weapons like a tesla coil. Just some general ideas. another example would be a code for cart-linking if there’s an engine cart at the front of a line, or to add a clamp to carts for them to link.
Ya il look into it creeperz thanks for the idea
but as i said earlyer i cant force them to add it.
