it might even be an understatement

@@epschway1052 true bruh if possible they can get billions and billions of blocks mined

Not really… There are much bigger servers

I can actually say the same and I play on a single player world…

Your build was awesome

hey! i was watching ilmangoes stream when it came on, i'm telling you if he made a poll to decide which farm to build u would've won in a landslide

i was going to say if you could make a tutorial for that farm, but of course the geode layout is different everytime :facepalm: rip

You really made a good design out of my idea, using tnt minecarts to blow up the shards and usning rails to prevent the blocks from getting blown up

Awesome !

XD

@@jorvp heyo, i think i pronounced your name wrong for a video earlier, is it horvp, or how do you pronounce it sorry i'm not good at spanish

@@ncolyer yorp, horp, yorpi, horpi, yor-vee-pee, hor-vee-pee, Yor, Hor. Either of these is correct.

@@jorvp with that amount of variation i practically have a 50/50 chance of getting it right, thank you

@@jorvp this is a beautiful comment love it xD

ikr ncolyer's crazy, i never would've thought of that well i thought of using water to break them lmao

@@deepimageai9646 it was velwy's idea to use tnt carts to break the amesthyst, i just executed it and used the rail trick

Definitely not useless, they're the most effective way to build a death trap if you don't mind blowing up the items. But outside of that, yes, they're pretty useless.

@@ItsaJuraff death trap in survival, to blow up myself ? 😁

@@YounesLayachi If you're playing singleplayer, I guess lol. I designed a few traps based on TNT minecarts that were meant to be used on an "anarchy" server I hosted that had a small world border on it with hacking and x-raying banned. They're great because they explode instantly, and chain together to cause much more concentrated damage than is possible with TNT. Because these traps can create multiple explosions when multiple carts are stacked together, the trap can be hidden behind walls without losing much of its damage potential. The first explosion completely exposes the player to the subsequent explosions, maximizing damage. The only catch is that these traps almost always destroy the items, since the last explosion is rarely the one that kills the player. Compare this to end crystals, which require a distance of zero and perfect exposure to reliably kill a player in full protection 4 netherite. Achieving this often requires you to build a machine that funnels the player into a kill chamber. This isn't a deal breaker, but it increases material and time investment, and also introduces additional components that can break or give the target more time to escape or survive. If the player thinks fast enough, they could water bucket, block clutch, throw a pearl, equip a totem, or even eat a notch apple or chorus fruit if your trap is slow enough. Often, the faster the time to kill, the more reliable the trap, and TNT minecarts are the easiest way to reliably build traps that kill quickly.

Wouldnt it be possible with hony ? I guess you most likely already tried it but why not ?

@@bluelemon243 If you are talking about the double flying machine approach, you could use honey but it would probably be better to attach a non-sticky block to each flying machine on the front so it prevents them from touching. While i was testing, honey prevented items that landed on top from being collected.

What about a block stuck further back on the flying machine? It wouldn't go the full length, but far enough to punch out one crystal.

@@Erik-pu4mj that could work. Another idea is a block further back that triggers the self returning mechanism at an arbitrary distance.

I feel like adding an immovable block or two to stop flying machines mid-geode could result in a net positive amount.

Yeah, I was hoping he would turn it up a little. Ghast farms are fun!

Xisumavoid built the same design on Hermicraft Season 7. You can destroy your ears there if you wanna :)

Exactly my thinking. Seems like the way to go for any amethyst farm in the future

one would even say "tiny"

The problem with that is all of the sides on the same plane of the block in question will be getting punched thru with a flying machine because of the budding amathyst block the cluster is attached to, so that only leaves one option for placing that extra piston, and that's directly facing it and the budding block. Could work depending on what else is going on in every other axis, but if there's any other clusters that need to be harvested in those axis it would be a moot point

oh yeah, did u watch the live stream a day or two ago when he reviewed them, he looked so happy :)

'blow them out of the water' 4x drops per shard, but ur only able to mine at most 25% of the shards

@@ncolyer But if two players (or more) mine the amethyst with fortune III, the farms would be no match.

@@nikolassomething3729 and u could get 100 players to mine every shard, having more players doesn't make it any better, coz you could use 2 players to load twice as many full auto geode farms using pistons. also u need to supply the player with xp

@@nikolassomething3729 its like saying, oh my spruce tree farm is quicker than yours coz i made two of them and ran them with 2 players

Really not that many lol

What's optimal FOV ? Is it 79 ?

@@YounesLayachi depends on your distance to the screen, but 69 is of cause a really nice FOV, thats why im also using it ;)

@@PanNic97 also depends on screen size and GUI size, I find FOV under 70 too zoomed and it gives motion sickness. FOV 80 to 90 has a decent amount of padding around the screen for peripheral vision

@@YounesLayachi I use 90 but I'm so used to being near a speed 2 beacon that without speed even 90 feels zoomed in

@@bradleywalton970 I'm still debating whether speed induced FOV changes are good in the long run or not x) no pun intended. Will see what happens once I lay out soul speed III paths everywhere in my base

No need for that. The shape of the slime block shield is given just by the projection of the budding amethyst blocks. Then you just need to partition it a bit such that the shields don't get larger than push limit and such that the engine sits in a spot where it doesn't collide.

Yep

Droppers are better than furnaces, because furnaces tick.

Sadly, it seems everyone just rushes to leave a comment, without bothering to check to see that every fifth comment is already asking the same question.

I would also want to know, what it takes to run a server like that. And how I could implement some of the important client side mods myself.

The most recent experimental snapshot reverted that so there is a slight bit of hope xd.

Yeah as venom said they reverted it :D

@@venomspectre5935 the performance tho... Gonna take a nosedive until subchunk-based generation and loading are implemented. Considering mojang were still supporting 15 years old systems until 1.17, things like intel core 2 and first generation core i3 with HD 2000 graphics. I wonder what the minimum specification for 1.18 currently is

@@BvngeeCord Holy shit lets go! we have hope...

yea same this is a problem for me because i play on laptop and with the best fps boosters i only get a top of 60 fps, I tried the experimental snapshot and i got 20 more fps then i normal do in a single player but if i started moving even half a block it would drop to 12 fps and the only way it was playable was if i put it on 2 render distance. which in it self isnt playable lol. So i hope they optimize it... alot

Truly a great server and it's gone by so fast Eat your cereal

@@quinboi3461 eat your cereal too pal

water streams might be better, and the player would need to aim a certain way and hold both buttons

@@nanopi yeah, also, you average around 9 shards per crystal with fortune 3, so theoretically, you would only need 1/4 of the source blocks to achieve the same rates as a piston one

no

I think the mobs would despawn

@@Nate303 yes

bowl farm except no

They already know the optimal clock timer to harvest the geodes at the best time. They were simply looking for a layout to get the most crystals. Time is an independent variable, so they were just looking at which one broke (and properly collected) the most crystals

Most if not all the amethysts will be fully grown when you harvest (every 167 minutes if I remember correctly) so there's no point in overcomplicating it. You'd be adding so many extra blocks and redstone devices you'd get much lower rates by not being able to harvest as many sides anyway.

No lag

To reduce lag, when hoppers are being used only to transport items and not collect them, then a composter on top of the hopper stops the hopper from constantly polling the game for "are there any new items landing on top of me ?" updates

What Younes said. In one of ilmango's older videos, he was on a lagbusting adventure in the main Scicraft server, and basically 90+% of the server's lag problems were caused by hoppers! It's a really big deal, especially for a server that relies so heavily on automated item collection systems. He spent that entire episode basically just flying around and fixing older machines that were causing lag, still somehow entertaining.

@@Talinoth optimisation in its purest form is always entertaining :D

Endermen drop xp only when killed by a player or a tamed wolf

Slightly lag reducing

Hoppers stop checking for entities to suck up if they have a block with an inventory above them instead they will check the slots of the block above. This check causes less lag then the entity check. Composters have only 1 "slot" and are passive blocks (dont do anything unless interacted with) unlike furnaces which were used before composters were added to the game.

to reduce lag, since hoppers/ redstone components can be laggy

Reduces lag

To increase pack spawning, when you see multiple mobs spawning in the same tick

@@jorvp But why does it extend so many blocks away from the actual spawning pads? The general rule was that 5 block wide roof was 95% spawns, right?

@@nana-vq4xn That I don't know, I did not design the farm after all.

gnembon made a tutorial for that farm, he uses 10 blocks in that video.

@@jorvp Thats actually not quite true - Pack spawning for ghast still only spawns 1 Ghast but you get the spawning atempts from the pack spawning.

@@Vicar307 tysm

Lag reduction. It means the only thing that the hoppers have to check when trying to pick up items is the composter; and the composter only has the one output that needs checking.

Stop the hopper from picking up items. This can stop random items from going into the system and it also reduces lag.

@@nana-vq4xn they will still pick up items if it enters the composter lol

@@methanoI They don't

Redstone components generate lag, and hoppers are no exception. They try to move their items to adjacent containers all the time, even if there's no block next to them. Putting a furnace or composter on top of them eliminates this issue.

@@noori2105thanks

If hoppers don’t have a block with an inventory on top of them, they have to check if there are entities on top of them. If the hoppers do have a block with an inventory on top of them, they only need to check the slots of that inventory for items, which they do much more efficiently. Composters have only one inventory slot to check and unlike furnaces, do not tick, so they produce the least lag out of all the blocks with inventories,

@@ncolyer thx

lag-proofing: hoppers with containers on them do not check for item entities (so of you threw some items on them they do not pick it up). fewer checks = less lag
