    So allot of people have been questioning me on how can I make solar survival harder. One way is making it so nights are freezing cold and to survive the night you will need to have a torch next to you to keep warm. You will also freeze underground at night without a torch. To keep warm underground you must wear full leather armor or have a torch or fire. On the surface the only way to survive is with a torch (leather armor won't protect you). The days and night will be longer than normal.

    Vote Yes if you would like this to happen and No if you won't. (Poll closes in 7 days)

    Can you make gold armor stop sun damage or take armor damgae instead of hearts?

    No sorry :( I can't. I can maybe see if people who have gold armor can get fire protection.

    Does stone melt due to the sheer heat? If not, try to add that. And if you end up adding the cooling function, make the lava source blocks turn into obsidian, while the rest of it turns into stone. Or make it hard to go below the surface by making all of it turn into obsidian.

    Im not really sure if I can do the obsidian thing but it is possible to make stone into lava. Issue with that is the terrain will look funny because the lava will keep spreading and there will be more lag.

    Well, there is the solution to the difficulty problem. Expansive lava + lag. That should satisfy them lol.

    Ok I now have it set so day and night are twice as long. So 20min of day 20 min of night.

    If you can make blocks turn into other blocks during day can you make sand turn to glass? I think it was in original mod. Also you could make dirt turn to gravel and clay to bricks?

    Clay to cooked clay.

    Yep I do think I can change those. Why should dirt turn to gravel tho?

    Hmm ok ill see if I can do that.

    because dirt is full of living things and when they die gravel is left that nothing can grow on.

    If anything, it would just become coarse dirt..

    things can still grow on coarse dirt, because of lack of "dead" dirt in minecraft I think gravel makes more sense
