sweet, although I played Sp for like an hour and saw no weather...

I got weather after playing for 30 minutes. It only changed to rain then sunny again once. I think its to rare

Oh wow I'm pretty psyched about a lot of the little things here, I can't wait to give this all a shot!

The game also crashes if you put a detector rail next to a normal rail.

I sort of need some motivation to get back on more regularly and the booster/detector tracks are something I welcome. Though there are already problems with it ATM.

... And apparently the latency issues still exist in 1.5. D:

Yes! Booster rails will take gold? Fail. It might be cheaper to just make a normal booster mechanism. Everything else looks good

I don't know what we'll do about boosters if they crash the server... we obviously can't allow them to be used if that's the case. I'm totally diggin' the anti-fly-hack.

Until Notch fixes his physics and makes boosters non functional.

The crashes AFAIK only occur when you place a detector rail next to a normal rail. I haven't had to do this yet on SSP. I've made fully functional stations and interchanges without any crashes or problems.

i doubt he will do that since they are "part" of minecraft now

Looks like CraftBukkit's been updated for 1.5_02 https://github.com/Bukkit/CraftBukkit/commit/ee614b40e3f5377b33a3eb704a73036ae28e13bd

Looks like they're working on it, but we won't even think about moving to a testing phase until they have at least 2 recommended builds for 1.5.
