[@Gaming32i]

I think Create must use floats (instead of doubles) to render the train guide. You can see a similar issue on old versions of Minecraft (like 1.0) if you go really far out. In those versions, it even affects worldgen (see the farlands)

[@Gaming32i]

The track targeting error occurs when Create think there's no track where you clicked. The issue is related

[@sky01james28]

Good point, I notice a lot of Minecraft rendering uses floats instead of doubles. I would be surprised if Create’s backend logic uses floats too, though, since Minecraft coordinate positions are usually ints, longs, or doubles

[@superJK92]

Someone will probably recode it to use doubles instead of floats

[@planeter6446]

You can try getting the world border closer to the center of the world with the /worldborder set 1000 1 and do this on a smaller scale. Technically it's still from one border of the world to another the only difference is that they are closer together

To explain the buggy visuals: It's a complicated problem, but long story short and very simplified, computers struggle dealing with massive numbers. The higher the number, the more inaccurate they get. Heck, some programming languages (JavaScript, for example) even struggle with small numbers as well. (0.2+0.4=0.6000000000000001 according to JavaScript) In Minecraft beta, there was a well known glitch called "The Farlands" which was caused by the terrain generation having an absolute meltdown over super big coordinates. This was eventually "fixed" - meaning the world size was limited, rather than just letting you go forever - but the root cause of the problem (floating point precision) was never solved, because it's an inherent flaw in how computers work with massive numbers. There's nothing Mojang could have done about it if they wanted to. 12+ years later, the Create mod comes out, and has issues in Flywheel (their custom renderer) because of floating point precision.

[@NeroDefogger]

not quite, the farlands is because of the terrain generation

[@chainingsolid]

@@NeroDefogger which uses floating point numbers in the math..

[@henryfleischer404]

They could actually fix the problems in floating point. In Ruby, integers have an arbitrary level of precision, allowing for thousands of digit long numbers. C# also has this in it's bigint data type, and if Java does not have this, it could be implemented. Placing a decimal in the data type should not be * that * hard, in comparison to making the data type from scratch. The easiest way to do this would probably also recreate the inaccuracies at tiny scales though, and they might even be harder to deal with. Anyway, it's not worth it to solve this problem for a game like this. My concept would probably run terribly, being extremely taxing on the CPU, and fairly taxing on RAM too.

[@ConeParty]

create mod videos are so entertaining!! keep up the good work!

[@maxwellgulyas6444]

The reason it won’t work is probably because of rounding errors when the position values are so high. It’s probably the same thing that causes the far lands to generate in older Minecraft versions. I did the math to see how long it would take and it would take almost 25 days to go from one border to the other with the train at the default max speed

[@EnderThePirate]

alternate title: trying to build a create mod train really far from spawn for 8 minutes

[@EnderThePirate]

@@Shalz well thats true lol

[@TryFiXed]

Btw, this seems to be a bug not an intentional limitation. My first guess would be, that they use a different way to save position than in default Minecraft (probably a problem with all of create mod) and that this way has a problem in saving such big numbers. If it's this problem then it's pretty easy to fix.

[@sniper201minecr]

The world border always has problems in the vanilla games too mainly in the past and depending if you're playing Java or bedrock both of them play a little bit differently if you get near the border and pass the Border half the game mechanic slowly dies

[@Nefatos]

what about superflat and set last layer as tran track. it should make all tracks same way so you can try go from spawn at the end without building that tracks bcs they will be already here

[@DCI_Mage]

@@Shalz how do you dowload the config menu mod

[@AllExistence]

Just move world border over. The only reason why world border exists where it is is because coordinates are limited by the size of a numerical variable that can store them. The cost of big numbers is that the decimal part becomes less and less precise until it completely disappears as the number grows. You can see that in F3. Therefore, calculations with those numbers are prone to errors, and that causes glitches or fails entirely. It appears that Minecraft uses bigger variables then creator of Create mod used. So, while Minecraft works, Create fails to read the coordinates. While blocks can be placed as part of Minecraft itself, any functionality is broken.

[@therealtony2009]

its called the floating point error and it happens in pretty much every 3d game

[@fenix5fire]

Still interested why world is not just divided into chunks so there would be no way to overflow. Maybe cuz it's slow, or cuz it's very rare issue for most of the games?

[@chainingsolid]

@@Shalz Could try out having a programmer swap out a lot of the floats in the code for doubles instead (many game devs use 32 bit floats instead of 64 bit ones for performance reasons, if you can't find anyone else I may be interested in trying it.).

[@sky01james28]

@@fenix5fire the world border size is limited by the block xyz coordinates that can be packed into a long value type. Other than that, most Minecraft position code uses doubles and ints which is already pretty generous

[@fenix5fire]

@@sky01james28 I know. I just thought why devs not using more variables to store values, so you can use for example max integer amount of integers (if you use just two variables to store a single coordinate) to avoid overflow or precision errors.

[@the_swest]

Shalz, your upload schedule is insane. Don’t forget to rest if you need to!

As many people already said, it's probably the same thing as Far Lands, so there is nothing you can do. So, just move the world border itself with /worldborder

[@putraparis2662]

0:24 WHAT THE FUCJWKWHDK2JEKEDJ Make me dying 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@FoxDog1080]

There's a chance the create mod uses higher numbers for positioning, and the fact that you're so far out means it can't position itself right Of course normally that means parts shouldn't be glitching to be higher or lower than normal

[@Bebeu4300]

I highly doubt it's a deliberate limit. It's probably a bug with floating point precision or something else that means the game can't figure out which piece of track you clicked on (which is what gives you the generic "Can't target this track here" thing).

[@eliasdator1233]

[@tanhrs8711]

You don't have to load chunk to make trains working. The create mod is made a way that the trains can go even in unloaded chunks.

[@zekkos8636]

So the reason why it breaks is the same reason bedrock edition breaks at long distances. It's to do with how floating point numbers work and the fact as you get further from 0,0 the precision of the floating point gets lower. So technically Create could be made to operate properly, but functionally there is not much point.

[@SunroseStudios]

given all these issues our first guess would be, try making the track *halfway* out to the original world border, and see if that works? because whenever the number doubles, the coordinate numbers get less precise

[@LyingTube]

Create tries to store the railway lines in memory so that any train can know if it can reach any station from its current position, essentially as a pathfinding map, whereas Minecraft just doesn't care at all because minecarts only occupy 1 block and don't have their own pathing. This might mean that the game just crashes before you can even load the railway line all the way to the border.

[@p3chv0gel22]

I mean, we could in theory calculate, how long ot would take to travel the whole Minecraft world, if we know what the Maximum speed is you can allow with the config That would just be 60,000,000 (from -30,000,000 to 30,000,000) divided by the max speed to get Seconds, divide that by 60 to get minutes, again by 60 to get hours, by 24 to get days (if necessary) and by 365 to get years (if necessary)

[@totalgamingspectrum8697]

New mod idea: Create mod where you can build a machine to push back the world border but if it's destroyed, the border slowly pushes back into place.

[@siepert]

The reason the green track indicarion glitches so much is becausw the high numbers mess up the calculation of the rendered shapes. This also happens with other create mod things like glue indicarion and the boxes where are number or item can be set (like in redstone signals or speed controllers). I experienced this for myself but not this heavy. This is also the reason the station doesnt work properly (i think)

[@razziel4599]

Eaxtly, it's called "floating point errors"

[@sky01james28]

Ah, good point. I was wondering why the station couldn’t be placed but it’s likely bc MC uses floats for all rendering stuff, including the crosshair selection, which means the mod doesn’t know quite where the player is looking when they try to place a track or station

The reason for the train station and everything being so buggy may be the integer limit (2.147.483.647). Everything beyond that number (if integers are used in the code) will cause problems as numbers seem to randomly change, resulting in unwanted results and weird glitches.

[@RubricalChain25]

What you could do is estimate it, have the train start at like -500,000 and then travel to 500,000 (either x or z, doesn’t matter), and keep track of the amount of time to travel that 1 mil blocks, then, assuming the train doesn’t glitch out at any point in a hypothetical 60 mil track, you could take the time and multiply it by 60, saying that it *theoretically* could take a create mod train [x] amount of time to travel from one end of the MC world to the other

Ha, floating point errors, my old friends. Some games are better with them than others - KSP can handle out to a few light-years before everything gets all wobbly - but eventually things break with very large distances from the origin. That’s why there’s a world border in the first place: floating point errors used to break the world generation, so Mojang had to add a limit.

[@MrLarso2002]

So basically, the problem lies in the way Create renders the train things. We know such issues in prior versions affecting the world gen (Far Lands). And its not fixable because the core problem is that programning languages slow down a lot and partially fail to calculate with giant numbers. There are NO known ways fo fix this so far, happens to every game. Theres only ways to partially avoid it

[@Piano_freak5]

You should build a train that goes completely around the track like the train is the donut riding on the track but the track is inside the hole

Start at 0 0 then just let it run for maybe days on end at a certain speed that seems to work. Check on it about every hour or so to see if it stopped working then when it does stop working attempt to fix it then watch it for maybe 10-20 minutes. Eventually you will make it to the world border this way.
