    you could make it so when you walk on the snow it gets trampled down as if somebody was actually walking on it, just an idea :p

    It seems to only want to stack snow on top of trees.

    Your implementation is pretty neat, but it doesn't even scratch the surface of what snow cover can do - try using this on the snow cover blocks ;)

    Code:
    Block B = (*Get Block Here);
    B.setData(0..7);
    (CraftWorld) World.getHandle().notify(B.getX(), B.getY(), B.getZ());
    (^^ You will need to target craftbukkit directly instead of bukkit for this part)

    0..7 was shorthand for "any value from 0 to 7." Two periods instead of 1

    I've solved the tree problem, but now snow only stacks within the chunk I'm currently in so I have massive towers of snow on my house and no where else. Could you add some code that makes the plugin look for a block that isn't a snow block to stack a snow block on before stacking snow blocks on top of each other? (before putting an 80 on top of an 80, look for some 78 and turn that into an 80 before stacking and 80's on 80's)

    I like this plugin, is it possible for snow to act like sand? When my house blew up one day, the snow was still floating...if it could drop that would be cool.

    Hey, great plugin. But I would also like to request the snow melt/decay option under the sun. Built a huge castle with a trench, and before I could fill it with lava snow had packed so high that the creeps could walk right over. lol After cleaning up the snow, I had major lag, due to all the snow balls lying everywhere haha =D

    Otherwise, love the plugin!

    Thanks, will remember that. I try and stay away from command based interactions as much as possible though. Keeping it real ;) Almost like the dif between Win(blows)dows and Linux ;-P
