It's been 4 years since they added copper to minecraft and they only just made it remotely useful...
In bedrock edition...
@VD15 What did they add?
@alyx copper tools, armor, chests, and they brought the copper golem back from the dead
@VD15 In the main game? You sure it isn't one of those paid DLC packs from the store?
@alyx Nope, it's vanilla. (Eventually) https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/article/minecraft-preview-1-21-100-23
@VD15 Huh... so the copper golem works as an early, cheap, item sorter. That's nice, but at the same time... takes away from learning to make a red stone item sorter.
@alyx the redstone ones will almost certainly scale better. Entities are a major source of lag
Mainly gaming/nerd instance for people who value free speech. Everyone is welcome.
