Honestly, just use their accounts to start playing in a sincere effort to fix the problem manually. They'll quickly learn that nothing they can do to each other is worse than your mediation. I call that "The Solomon Approach."

Upvote because parents playing on a minecraft home server with their kids is a huge win for everyone involved.

Yeah see, then you get me as a parent My boys were battling it out, in game and in real. I make them get off the game but stay logged on, used the axe to dig till I was at the bottom and dulled the axe. Did this for both, then made them listen while those zombie things came and killed them.

This only had to happen once. They never fought again.

+1 on that, I started with my kids on a free cloud server, and now have a local instance running in a container on my NAS for us to use

So... we need to cut all the cows in half?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 4 days ago (1 children)

That's a good question. Is there butchering in Minecraft?

[–] [email protected] 13 points 4 days ago (2 children)

More or less. When you kill cows you get meat and sometimes milk.

And if you kill them with fire the steak is already cooked.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Huh. I wonder if that works in real life. BRB.

I think the hard part is getting it cooked through without charring the outside.

You dont get milk if you kill them... only if you smack them with an empty bucket, and you only need one for infinite amount of milk.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Hmm, did they patch that out? I haven't played much but I distinctly remember being surprised by this.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Its been like that forever. I've never known any other way to obtain milk buckets. Nor does the Change logs make any references to alternative ways. Perhaps you played on a server with plugins that added milk bucket as a drop.
