I made something like this a while ago! And if you put a renamed item in the minecart, you can read it at intersections in the nether with hoppers to have a big rail network getting items from farms anywhere in the world to your base! You can even put an item with a specific order to start a farm, stop it, or activate an enderpearl statis chamber to teleport anyone anywhere in the world from your base, using the network that already bring you items.

The "well of course not, trees don't fall in minecraft, silly" joke made me actually choke on my food Good job

You can use half as many portals if you place them between chunk borders. The 3x3 gets loaded around the chunk that contains the portal block that the entity went through. If the two portal blocks are in different chunks, when the item is dropped through one and returned through the other, a 4x3 area is loaded, allowing you to only place a portal every other chunk. Also, the nether side redstone can be simplified: just run redstone dust on a transparent block into the top dispenser. This removes the need for restone torches (and the delay that comes with them).

A random fact: holding fly up (default space) and fly down (default shift) will keep you at the same height but will allow you to place blocks against interactable blocks the same way shift normally does.

MAAAAAAAAAN. My new favourite Minecraft youtuber. Amazing. I wanted to build your post office design in our SMP server but worried that having so many active chunk loaders will cause too much lag... having the chunk loader only activate when a delivery is on it's way is such a simple elegant solution👏👏👏👏👏

For all those curious bedrock players, this has no chance to work , chunk loading is impossible in bedrock.....

6:51 "...place any old junk item" *puts in a diamond* _Ahh yes, definitely a junk item_

It is possible to have fewer chunks loaded, but you need to send the information using llamas, and accelerating them with TNT until they move so incredibly fast that you only the llamas don't visit every chunk, since they only visit a single chunk per gametick.

An alternative to the gate delay system: break the chest minecart and send the item entities through the portal instead. The downside is that is requires a lot more effort to create that system and there will be delay in picking the items back up. The upside is that it works for all distances and supports multiple incoming carts.

The tree question is actually a philosophy question about the distinction between our perceptions and reality. Sound (the auditory experience) doesn’t exist when no one is around to hear it, but vibrations in the air absolutely exist regardless of who’s there.

Hey, I'm not looking to send any minecarts through the nether for a mail delivery, but this video has a wealth of useful chunk loading tips in general! Kudos, heh.

This would allow for interesting "mail" networks on smp servers like hermit raft. Use this system to transport items, maybe use named items as delivery addresses and return addresses. Hoppers and comparators to empty the cart into the "mailbox"and a similar hopper system to put the" address" items back in the cart to be returned.

Didn't expect a philosophical question in the first few seconds xD

This is awesome. Could you have your mail sorting system in the nether so that all the server members just send something to a central hub and then an item filter takes it to the proper line? Also, I assume there would be no problem with the nether portals in the overworld being underground?

I see a lot of improvements possible as per some comments, but you're the first I've seen demo such an impressive proof of concept. I'd love to see someone (or even you) iterate on this spark of brilliance. So glad I sub to you and didn't miss this. If I do anything with it you'll get full credit. People need to think a bit harder about what you could do with this. The ramifications are insane.

Such an underrated channel, keep up the good work!

So technically, ifwe wanted to set up a serverwide messaging system, with address handling, what we'd need is: 1.: a central hub that every base is connected to 2.: a delay cirquit in said hub, that either makes the minecart wait in place as yours did, or makes it run on a loop, whatever's simpler to build. (also, that loads said hub for enough time to process the message) 3.: a decoder circuit (simple Impulse sorters would work for this) to select where to send the minecart out 4.: a way to connect the minecart to the selected branch. (For example, all the branches start from the same loop, but only one is toggled available, while the minecart rolls straight past the rest of the startng points ratherthan turning on to them instead. This can bring up issues if the server is big, and would require more entry/exit points than we have space around in the loaded chunks.) Since the message travels in a minecart chest, at least in your example, it wouldn't be too much of a hassle to put a shulker in there, with specific items. If you havea distant farming district, with let's say, a chunk loading grid attched, and a system in place that toggles farms on/off based on a specific item being sent there, that it can read out of a shulker, you can control your farms from any distance you'd like, using the messaging system that would also work for your message delivery with your friends. Not to mention, you could send a chest minecart of two back to your base using the same system, with the drops from the the farms. Preferably already pre-packed in shulkers. Now just build a decent looking hut that you can copy/paste over the chunk loaders in the overworld, and a nice tunnel design or something similar for the nether part, and you've got yourself a fully automated remote industrial district. Just make sure you either have automatic crafting on your server from some mod, or manually craft up enough shulkers so you don't have to visit back there all too often. To be fair, I was secretly hopin for a method that can send items/entities a longer distance away without necessarily having to load the distance in between, but I guess having to load 1/8th of it is still better than having to load it all by smacking the player on the payload in a normal minecart.

"This makes minecart way faster" Canman would love this.

Despite a few inaccuracies that have already been pointed out in the comments, the video content was nice to watch and was interesting. Great work on this one, and I hope to continue seeing a similar level in future videos!

I'm really glad someone made a coherent video on this with all the details. I've mainly learned this through Hermitcraft when people like Xisuma and Mumbo do it.

We need the mine cart journey to be a few seconds longer Redstoner: elaborate clock system with gates etc None redstoners : let’s just add a few zig zags to the track

Man, I love your videos thanks!

BACK WITH THE GOATED VIDEOS bro these videos give me a Mattbatwings vibe ngl love all of these videos bro keep this shii up

Huh, this is actually a really good info. Seems like quite a lot of info I know about chunk loaders are quite wrong. Thank you, this will really help me connect more of my far away farms to my base. (Like my triple witch hut farm... Which is 150k blocks away. And no... I'm quite unlucky to not get a quad witch hut... But got lucky on other structures though)

Heyy, I just spent the last week designing a nether side chunk loaded mail system. Neat to see this pop up around the same time!

greetings! I'm loving your videos, also love the fact you are a musician as well. hope you make more cool stuff with music in Minecraft

Thank you this fixed my problem perfectly

Great video👍 thanks for making it and explaning SUUUPER good how it works❤

always happy to see videos from you! keep it up!(im not a bot i swear)

Thats an intresting change, u can also solve the cart portal cooldown with cart yeeting by redispensing the cart back and reloading it with the items

Ok, use this concept to create a warp system with ender porters. If you use a minecart with a chest you could throw an item into a hopper with your intended destination as it's name for instance, then you could have item filters decode the item in the nether and change the path the minecart takes. Once it reaches the final destination it triggers an ender porter and you end up traveling much faster, much easier.

Couldn't you just put curves in the nether rails so it takes longer than 15 s to get to the portal?

Imagine someone using this method to send creepers across an entire server.

o+h it's "just" chunkloading... wouldn't have been surprised if you had like idk, discovered a novel entity manipulation technique that gets them to actually physically move through a gap of unloaded chunks. But a fantastic tutorial for an advanced technique, that's also great! for the "wait to run out the portal cooldown" mechanism... would it be worth investigating to just quickly move the items to a NEW minecart? I don't know if minecart unloaders are fast enough now for that to make sense, but TMC is kinda crazy so who knows

Thank you for the knowledge. I can now go break into the 4th dimension.

It's a nice thing, now finally my chunk dupe new project begin ahahahah

OOOH hit this the moment I saw the thumbnail. I've always wanted to send chest minecarts off to distant places...

me and the boys using hell just to send mail without walking👍

The original question isn't necessarily about the relationship between observation and reality, but rather the difference between sound (perception) and things that can cause sound but have no sound because there's no one there to perceive it (since sound is your perception and not the physical phenomenon)

@3:40 "All we need is to do is make sure there is a portal in every single chunk leading up to the portal over there" Yes I'm absolutely going to do this when transporting a mine cart long distances. Say over 500+ chunks.

Good tutorial on a boring but important task to deal with!

I did something very similar to send coded sculk signals. Sculk was faster than the chunk loading time so the signal was lost before it loaded, so I made the first sigal to activate a chunk loader and inside the nether it activated a second sculk line that activated a line of portals from the nether

* watching the notifications as the minecart is passing by the portals * "Click out of one, nice click out of two, false gate on three…"

Bro's Minecraft Skin gave me nostalgia reminding me of Minecraft Batman & Robin with all those TNT mods.

I just realized why youtube recommended this video to me “now we are thinking with portals”

The sticky-less hopper clock is a really cool innovation... I wonder how compact it could get, and if you could use it for both pistons

I'd personally make an minecart breaker setup, then dispense it with dispenser, since from 1.19 chests minecarts don't split up into 2 items. You can fill the items with hoppers afterwards. Newly created chest minecart has its portal cooldown set to 0 by default, so the delay circuit is not needed.

i actually saw an "simpler" design ( to load chunks), when i remember it right, it was with hoppers facing in an unloaded chunk, that wants to transport an item into the unloaded one, and because of that the game loads the unloaded chunk, and the new loaded does the same ... or so, im searching the video ... EDIT: it got patched in 1.12 :(

I my computer class, I have been learning how the internet works. This video kinda gave me an idea. Internet in minecraft? Imagine loading a website in minecraft. (Of course, you would have to build an entire web server to send out proper packets)

Good, and thank you so I can make a mail system im minecraft

You could also just add a zig zag or use less powered rails to slow it down

One small thing about the intro, since 1.18 render distance and simulation distance aren't the same anymore, and chunks actually being loaded is simulation distance. Render distance is how far you can see. Great video though, this is just a nitpick!

Instead of delaying the whole delivery, you could break the minecart, dispense a new one, and then fill it up again.

Mojang should make so that a minecart can load only the chunk were it is

Nice intro

It was nice when the portal 1 message showed up. I was happy to see portal 2 message. But when i saw the portal 3 message my inner Gabe died of ligma.

It might be payload dependant, but would it be faster to break the minecart chest to send it through the portal instead of waiting 15 seconds? If you made sure that the minecart chest had shulker's in it, I think it would be faster even if it was completely full.

Reminds me of Stargate's intergalactic relay.

Here at 10k 🎉

you could also break the minecart and dispense a new one to reset the portal timer

1:20 "we will be leveraging a portal to hell to help you send messages to your friends". Soooo basically twiiter then.

Excellent vidyo 🏆👍🏼💯

Would it be faster to make a chest minecart unloader and then immediately relaunch and fill it to negate the cd? It might take more than 15 seconds but it was something I was thinking of.

So, to send a minecart through unloaded chunks you need to... load them? Wow, absolutely mindblowing :idk: Thanks for not clickbaiting on thumbnail and title, that would be ebarrasing

What are the songs used in the background?

This gives mckay-carter intergalactic stargate vibes

hey what music r u using in the intro

0:33 except that's not the case with OptiFine tho, render distance and processing distance are two different things, you can have low render distance and high distance to process and vice versa

Can i use data pack thath load chunks that specially named minecart is?

You just reinvented Amazon.

Does this and the post office work in bedrock too? If not could you make a tutorial for that please?

Very nice 10/10 i'll never do it c:

>how to send minecarts thru unloaded chunks >load the chunks

i have a much easier solution to fix the minecart delay. just make a bunch of rails around the source portal and make the minecart spin around for atleast 15 seconds. you dont even need a timer for that

If you've got shorter than 980 blocks to cover, could you just not send the cart into the nether? Would this work just as well on shorter distances building the chunk loaders the same way, but keeping the mine cart in the overworld the whole time, putting the auto-returns in the nether instead?

0:24 is that the dankpods headphone testing music?

I believe these only work on java edition. For bedrock, I don't think there is any alternative unfortunately.

/forceload: 'Am I a joke to you?'

You can increase the distance if you use tnt to impulse the minecart through unholy speeds. Process might be different, but it'd be cool

Is there a way to update this design to use a boat? That way, the overworld side is just a single piece of fire, which is far simpler, easier, and cheaper to build.

How does the detector rail power the fence gates? Isn't it 2 blocks away from them? (This is awesome btw)

but is it limited by render distance or the simularion distance?

Isn't it easier to just activate hopper-based chunk loaders using detector rails?

I think it's a bit unreasonable to have portals in the nether every chunk, considering they are loading 3by3 entity rendering chunks, so it would be possible to have them on every 2nd chunks by placing next portal on the edge between loaded chunk and unloaded chunk and using minecart as loading mechanism ( a bit more expensive, but not that hard ). This way you nee twice less portals and chunkloading work, less lags from loading area and generally easier

Beautifull sistem 👍

one thing to watch out for is that you don't want the chunk to unload while the minecart is stalling, which makes it rather inconvenient that both timers are 15 seconds. otherwise, you could use the ever so elegant solution that produces much worse results called "minecart fall through cobweb"

This is cool, but I'll stick to Create Mod trains, which are able to keep running, even if they leave the loaded chunks

Sadly it seems very tedious, a work around is keep chunks mod and use the command /kc keeprails and tada! It works without any hassle

Considering it seems they might buff minecart speed this distance can be EXPANDED

So you could put a 8 second delay on every entrance and exit, making the system easier to modify in the future right? This should totally eliminate fine tuning and issues.

1:21 take it easy Samuel Hayden

Cant you make a timer long enough for the cart to take exactly 15sec between every chunk to pass into an activator rail to render a chunk with a farm? Like an infinitely looping minecart, who just so happens to load the farm chunks, so they never stop

maybe make a video where you add an option to choose to with portal you will send the minecart (I imagen it that you will input some kind of item to the minecart and the system will understand to who you wanna send the message)

I feel like minecarts in motion should load chunks

This may sound stupid but it wouldnt it be much easier and less resource expensive to just make the track longer in the nether if your sending the minecart a shorter distance?

Doesn't redstone enable chunks? Am I wrong? Anyways, awesome video!

genius

Are the portals on every eighth or are the in betweeen eight chunks?

the tree is both in a state of fallen down and not fallen down if noone is around to observe it xd
