      Mini Hacks for Minecrafters - Megan Miller

      PREFACE

      Greetings, fellow Minecrafters! If you haven’t played or heard much about Minecraft 1.9, or the Combat Update, yet, here is the big news: We can fly! (Actually, it’s gliding, but it’s close enough!) We’ll look at exactly how to get your wings in this book, and all of the big new features in 1.9, including:

      • Your new left hand, and how to use it

      • New combat mechanics (a.k.a., click slower)

      • How to walk on water

      • Crafting an everlasting sword

      • The dread skeleton trap

      • Igloos and what they hide

      • The new Outer End Islands, a weird new mob, and the amazing and rare Elytra wings

      Mojang (the creators of Minecraft) also made hundreds of smaller additions, improvements, and tweaks to the game. We’ll look at these changes too, so you’ll be the master of all 1.9 things and all this release contains!

      This book reflects the gameplay added in Minecraft 1.9 (PC). If you are playing a different version of Minecraft, features listed here may not be included or may work a little differently.

      CHAPTER 1

      DUAL WIELDING

      Our lone right arms have been leading the way forward in Minecraft since the beginning. Now with 1.9, if you’re a lefty, or if you are up for giving your world double the trouble, you have a whole other hand to use. When you open your inventory, you’ll see the new slot for your second hand to the lower right of your character. The slot has an outline of a shield in it, because a new primary ability of wielding with two hands is blocking with a shield. (That’s right, you can no longer block with your sword!)

      The off-hand slot has the outline of a shield in it.

      Main Hands and Off Hands

      You can switch which hand is your main or primary hand. Click Options on the Game Menus screen, then click Skin Customization. Click the Main Hand: Right/Left button on the bottom right to toggle which hand is your main hand. Because a player’s main hand can be the right or left hand, the non-main hand is called the off hand.

      How to Wield Dually: Short Explanation

      1. Press F to move an item to your off hand. Proceed.

      How to Wield Dually: Long Explanation

      1. In your hotbar, select the item you want to go in your off hand. This item should be something with right-click functionality, like a torch that you place with a right-click.

      2. Press F to move that item to the off-hand slot. The off-hand slot will appear to the left of your hotbar, if your primary hand is the right hand. If your left hand is your main hand, then the off-hand slot will appear to the right of your hotbar. Of course, you can also press E to open your inventory and drag items to your off-hand slot.

      The off-hand slot appears to the left of your hotbar if you’ve kept the default of using your right hand as your main hand.

      3. Scroll or press 1 through 9 to select another item in your hotbar. As usual, the item appears in your main hand, ready to use. This item should be something that doesn’t have a right-click functionality, like a pick or a sword (now that swords can’t block).

      4. Now you can left-click the item in your main hand, and right-click will right-click the item in your off hand.

      F will also switch what’s in your off hand and main hand.

      Unforeseen Consequences

      This dual wielding feature can kind of backfire. The game will first look to right-click something in your main hand, and only if that won’t work, goes to your off hand for the right click. If whatever is in your off hand breaks or
