Talk:Meteorite (biome)

Merged into the Environments page
This article, while well written, is so small that I'd say we merge it - along with all the rest of the biome pages - into the overarching Environment page. MarekkPie 14:59, 23 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Personally I'm against merging, I think the biomes deserve their own page and possibly an overarching category page (similar to how ores are laid out). Then you can read up on specific details of the biomes as well as the general information on all of them. -Shadowclaimer 16:11, 23 May 2011 (UTC)

Although, i have come across a meteorite landing on a floating island, albeit extraordinarily rare. 69.177.92.242 15:27, 23 May 2011 (UTC)

How Many
How many actual Meteorite's can be active on your world at a time? More than one? Seems like a useful question to answer. Going to go break another orb. - Bacon 03:40, 25 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Only one at a time. :< - Bacon 05:49, 25 May 2011 (UTC)

I currently have 2 meteorites active on my world, I think the limit to how many you can have active in one world is determined by how many you spawn by breaking orbs.

Sky bridges
I've read that since meteor strikes replace existing blocks, and they strike at the highest altitude possible, so if you make a sky bridge you can block a meteor strike, and it will replace only the one block thick strip you created up there. I have some clarifying questions:

Does anyone know which types of blocks it replaces? Only stone? Or dirt? Or what?

Does anyone know which types of blocks the meteor will pass through? i.e. If I made my sky bridge entirely out of wood platform (Where if you press down, you drop) would it leave the meteorite unhindered?
