So, what's a good and easy way to generate those topdown maps of a world?

Cartograph was the popular tool when I last checked.

That would be a pretty boss shirt to have at the gym, no lying.

I don't know if it is the mod's fault, but be careful of lava at the moment. I just had a project of mine nearly flooded with lava because it wouldn't recede after I took away the source of it. It might not be the mod though, since I remember lava always half-working in multiplayer.

lava behaves irrationally. if it gets like that, prevent forest fires by putting dirt on it.

Lava is usually really slow to recede anyway.  Could be your mod is breaking something, though, because it's receding (albeit slowly) on the server I play on fine.

Having played with lava curtains I can tell you that no, lava won't always destroy itself if you remove the source.

I had to spawn water to effectively get rid of it, since I had a giant lava pillar where a mine shaft should have been. After that I had to clear all of the cobblestone, which pretty much killed my desire to work on my stuff for the night.

FWIW, there's also an issue with fluid dynamics being way buggy after the 1.4 update (among other buggy things).

Zombies actually spawn in the same room as the bed because you don't have enough torches, or you're being woken up because it's too close to a wall and zombies can get within 2 squares of you, waking you up?

Wait what? Explain this more, because the last attempt I made to use the demonspawn bed was in the middle of the hole I was digging out, four blocks away from any walls, lit up. I get the message "This bed is occupied" and I get punched down the hole by a zombie. The fucking bed spawns zombies when I right click it.

I think your problem is that you're carrying your bed with you and using it in unsafe places. This thread suggests there are some unusual behaviors that emerge unless you take careful precautions. Basically, make sure you're surrounded by walls at least two blocks thick before sleeping (even if this means filling in the area behind you), and I suspect you'll be fine.

I think the game counts it if the monster can spawn in midair, even if that doesn't normally happen.

You REALLY need a small chamber of some sort to use it.

It's what you get for trying to abuse the beds.

I started building a tree fort. You can find entrances at ground level and along the glass skyway. Please do not set it on fire.

It's still under construction. Assistance building it would be appreciated if there's anyone that bored. I have planted many, many trees in the vicinity of the fort for raw materials; they grow back faster than I can chop them down.

I'd like to build a trunk that goes nearly up to the top of the world, with a crown of live trees disguised cleverly at the top, but I've got a long way to go. Once that is finished I'll start to worry about the interior, branches, or decorations. I'd also like it to go underground quite a ways into a mine, though the risk of running into lava necessitates special care.

Inside of it is a chest and a bed. You're welcome to anything in the chest. If you wish to donate logs, that is where you should leave them.
