Download seems to be down or link is incorrect.

EDIT:
correct link seems to be http://minecraft.cur...270160/download

Curse takes a while to display a download - it should be fine now.

Yay! Finally my Advanced computer can have Long Range modem that fits it!
Did anyone test range limitation on new modem? How it fares compared to normal one?

EDIT: Also it seems you can't put long range one on pocket computer. I am guessing its design choice? Or it just got missed?

2147483647m (which is the maximum value for a signed 32 bit integer holds). So effectively the entire world.

That makes gold more important than diamonds then for me :D
Also kinda explain why you can't use them on pocket computers. That would be to much power draw for our apple based battery :P.

Still... One computer running repeater on world spawn with one of those modems and suddenly all normal modems also can reach whole world.
Because if i remember correctly only one of two modems need to have other one in range for message to get trough right?

I thought it was that the sending modem needed to be in range, receiving range didn't matter - I may be wrong on this however. At least now it's easier to test this theory :P

Speaking of new stuff. Dan200 do you remember your tweet from some time ago about letting pockets beep and/or vibrate? Did that idea got scrapped or feel off the processing line?

It looks like ÿ for 0xFF doesn't show though.

Amazing update, starting up Minecraft again for the first time in a few months. I have one question though. How do you produce the new characters in-game? I don't seem to be able to enter alt-codes nor is it possible to copy and paste characters.

Edit:
Looks like I've managed to figure it out. Using string.char(<number>) you can turn numbers into characters.

oli spotted the true pattern to the "graphics characters", giving me a bit of a shortcut to writing an image converter:

Wow, that is actually amazing - 0.5 text scale, right?

Right, though at least for drawing purposes, it's effectively smaller than that - 0.1 I guess?

Now to go through and redraw my playing cards...

Also great trick you can use.
Instead of going
print(string.char(123)..string.char(123)..string.char(123))
You can do
print(string.char(123,123,123))
Or simpler
print("\123\123\123")
And get exactly same string.

As always, here's the Lua-side changes of CC 1.76pr4. Looks like the JSON serialization was improved for use with the Command Computer.
