Question
A while back I was digging in my mine, near the bottom level of my map, and I found something odd-- clay! So, I cooked the four blocks I found and it gave me some bricks. Awesome!
I've never seen clay again. I consulted the Minecraft wiki and it stated that clay is more rare than diamonds but slightly easier to find since it often appears on the surface near sand.
I haven't done a ton of looking but so far I haven't found any clay on the surface. So, why would such a useful block be so rare? Is this a bug or by design?
Answer
If you made those chunks (new world or explored new area) during 1.6, clay was bugged and only occurred when the X coordinate equaled the Z coordinate. New chunks in 1.7 should be unaffected by this bug, so you can explore further in an existing map, causing more chunks to be generated, or start a new world.
In the future, I think the amount of clay was going to be upped, as Notch felt it rarer than desired.
