That's great news

Also, when I get home I'm gonna try to move terrain generation to the GPU (shaders) just because I (probably) can and it's awesome xD

Sounds interesting, how would that work on a computer with no GPU?

Mobs I added:
They all spawn on land the same way spiders and chickens do right now
Cow:
(spawns during day, passive, runs when attacked, drops feathers and egg right now)
Squid:
(spawns during day, passive, runs when attacked, drops feathers and egg right now)
Pig:
(spawns during day, passive, runs when attacked, drops feathers and egg right now)
Sheep:
(spawns during day, passive, runs when attacked, drops feathers and egg right now)
Wolf:
(spawns during day, passiveaggressive, attacks back when attacked (eyes don't turn red), drops feathers and egg right now)


Slime:
(spawns during night, aggressive, attacks on sight, drops feathers and egg right now)
Creeper:
(spawns during night, aggressive, attacks on sight, drops feathers and egg right now)
Ghast:
(spawns during night, aggressive, attacks on sight, drops feathers and egg right now)
Silverfish:
(spawns during night, aggressive, attacks on sight, drops feathers and egg right now)
Skeleton:
(spawns during night, aggressive, attacks on sight, burns and dies during daylight, drops feathers and egg right now)
Zombie:
(spawns during night, aggressive, attacks on sight, burns and dies during daylight, drops feathers and egg right now)
Enderman:
(spawns during night, passiveaggressive, attacks back when attacked, burns and dies during daylight, drops feathers and egg right now)
Zombiepigman:
(spawns during night, passiveaggressive, attacks back when attacked, drops feathers and egg right now)
Cavespider:
(spawns during night, passiveaggressive, attacks back when attacked during day (only for a short time) and attacks on sight at night, drops feathers and egg right now)


To do list:
Need to limit mob spawning. Right now sitting in one spot for several minutes puts you in a very odd and ever increasing zoo of death.
Where the mobs spawn needs to change.
The squid only need to spawn in water.
The nether mobs should only spawn in nether (when added).
The mobs should also be able to spawn underground during the day.
The time based random spawn needs to change to a location aware and light level aware spawn function.

Make fire visible. Right now the mobs catch on fire during the day and burn to death, but the flames are invisible.
Projectiles also need to be added so skeletons can shoot and ghasts can fire fireballs.
The squid also need to be able to swim underwater.
The ghasts need to learn how to fly.
AI in general needs to be changed for several mobs.
Creepers need to explode instead of attack.
