MiniUHC Full Diamond Bug
Posted on 24 January 2017 - 09:23 AM
Hey guys,no idea if this has already been reported, but for a few weeks now there has been a bug in MiniUHCs (probably also in hosted UHCs, but i don't know for sure) which enables you to get full diamond if you manage to find one diamond vein at all.
The bug is the following: It appears that chunks that you have already visited/explored/mined in are not saved at all but instead (if you leave far enough and come back) appear as if they were completely untouched. So if by chance you find any diamonds in this chunk you can simply mine them, remember their position, leave and come back and mine the exact same diamonds again. Same goes for gold, sugar cane and all other stuff you might find (Probably even loot in spawner-chests; haven't tested that one though).
Im am not certain if this holds true for all chunks, or if only a certain amount of chunks per game is buggy and I have only barely exploited this, but as a consequence there is at least one full diamond in most games at the moment and knowledge about this bug is constantly spreading.
Even though I can not blame players using this bug (after all i would not consider it cheating if everyone with an unmodified client can do it), please have a look into this and fix if possible, because it kinda defeats the idea of mining to get full diamond through bug-using.
