** [2] Rotab's IRC logs, May 26th, 2009 (UTC+2)
*** "(15:45:28) <taodih> notch will we be able to use water as block? [...] (15:45:35) <taodih> in build mode? [...] (15:46:45) <@Notch> taodih: I already can in 0.0.14, but it's DANGEROUS"
== Offset test (May 25, 2009) ==
Word of Notch post, YouTube video (reupload)
* General
** Online level saving re-enabled.
** Reverted the grass texture back to the original. 
* Blocks
** Vertex and color offset tests.
*** Vertex offsets cause "wavy" blocks, making the world look more realistic.
*** Color offsets cause every block to be a slightly different color.
**** Was later removed as Notch didn't like the idea.
==Trivia==
* Respawning when pressing worked just like in 0.0.13a_03 and prior, as this was not changed until the public release of 0.0.14a. 
* The mouse features (auto breaking/building when left-click is held down, scroll-wheel block picking support and pick-block with middle mouse button) were all added on May 27, 2009 for the full release of 0.0.14a.
