Mojang has enhanced the leashing mechanics in Minecraft with the upcoming Chase the Skies update, introducing a new recipe for leads and improving leash physics to prevent snapping. Players will need one lead per mob to create a caravan, allowing for easier transportation of multiple mobs. To form a caravan, players can attach leads from one mob to another while sneaking. The traditional method of attaching leads to multiple mobs simultaneously is still available, with reduced likelihood of leads snapping. Players can also experiment with leashing boats and heavier mobs like horses and camels.

In Minecraft, players can build a Creeper farm to obtain a reliable source of gunpowder, which is essential for crafting TNT, fireworks, and splash potions. To construct an efficient Creeper farm, players need to gather materials such as building blocks, wooden trapdoors, carpet, cat mobs, slabs, campfires or magma blocks, chests, and hoppers. The construction steps include: 1. Choosing a location elevated above sea level or over the ocean to reduce other mob spawns. 2. Creating a flat spawning platform with solid blocks, attaching trapdoors to restrict spawns to creepers, and placing carpets to prevent spider spawns. 3. Positioning domesticated cats at the center of each platform to scare creepers into the trap zone. 4. Installing campfires or magma blocks at the base to eliminate creepers and using hoppers to collect loot. 5. Adding multiple layers of platforms to increase spawn rates and using trapdoors to guide creepers off the platforms. 6. Illuminating or slabbing nearby caves to prevent unwanted mob spawns. With careful planning and execution, players can establish a self-sustaining farm for a steady supply of gunpowder.
