Designing the Fastest Nether Tree Farm Using Science | (Self-sustaining, Playerless, 15+ Modes)

[@slicedlime]

That is an incredibly impressive project. Well done!

[@ncolyer]

Wow hi thanks for watching and commenting that's so awesome, I doubt this video would have been anywhere near as polished without your replay mod tutorials :)

[@slicedlime]

@@ncolyer That's awesome - glad they were useful!

[@GOAT_GOATERSON]

That's why I like Minecraft so much, there are no limits

[@K.H.A.Y.A.L.I]

@slicedlime Why don't mojang gives a way for bedrock players to mine or destroy blocks automatically without player input like java has tnt duping? Why does mojang expect players on mobile to build a complicated wither cage using bedrock blocks instead of using tnt duping or an alternative?

[@KentoMusic]

It's funny and fascinating that technical Minecraft has reached a point at which writing papers on certain aspects of the game wouldn't even be a joke anymore.

[@ncolyer]

that's what i half-jokingly plan on doing sometime in the next 12 months (edit: maybe more than 12 months, keep discovering new nuanced systems within playerless farm cores)

[@ncolyer]

need to fulfil all the comments about a phd thesis in minecraft

[@KentoMusic]

@@ncolyer I'm looking forward to it! :D

[@JKM115]

Wow, just wow The engineering, the maths, the narration, editing, visual aid, music. Top notch video!

[@luukeem]

Agreed jkm

[@lukecarroll19]

JKM taking notes 😂

[@Realicestorm]

I think this is single-handedly one of the best things I have seen in a while in tmc. Well done.

[@mrmaxmondays]

The editing alone is incredible, let alone the amount of work you put in designing this bad boy. Truly incredible work ncole, you should be proud of what ya got here!

[@ncolyer]

Thanks so much for the kind comment Max and for inspiring parts of the edit too, looking forward to building this on wave (in tree city) with you

[@Deb0ch]

Not many people can say "like Ilmango's design, but on steroids"

[@lsrom9889]

While I most likely won't be building this farm, you sir deserve high praise for the work you have done. Your scientific, methodical approach is fascinating and results speak for themselves. Can't imagine the amount of work you put into this and hope you'll find another project that will keep you occupied for next few years. We the viewers will be waiting for another scientific paper level presentation from you. Hats off.

[@ncolyer]

thanks so much, i got 2 more videos similar to this planned but that's for the far future as both farms aren't fully designed yet and will both also take months to plan, record and edit

[@g18b]

It feels more like a research for world development than just a wood farm for Minecraft ( btw the video is so well made with furnished finishing, pin point details u deserve more recognition)

[@Mustard9000]

Years in the making and finally these are the results. That the farm itself was engineered properly could be seen by what you have shown over the past few years but the fact that you managed to present it this nicely and go into the finer details for those less talented than you is really worth a lot. Very well done!

[@ncolyer]

hey Mustard, haven't seen you in ages, thanks for watching btw and yea so awesome to bring everything together into a 30 minute package

[@ncolyer]

Hey thanks for watching everyone!! If you're hungry for more SSS content, then you can check out the live stream I did working on it a couple months back: kzbin.infoqEpyfe9R8NA?si=HMgKleT4-jfDtlz-&t=325 Honestly some of the explanations I gave whilst live were better than the video lol and you can see in real time how I designed circuits such as the sequential logic gate and my general design process as a whole.

[@ZerkUWU]

There's no way there's a video this good on a 5k subs yt channel

[@ncolyer]

ha ty, i must concur. although when this vid first came out, this was only a 4k subs channel so with a bit of time..

[@maurice1378]

A true master piece of Technical Minecraft. The amount of time, dedication and effort are truely stunning. You outdid yourself and this level of TMC is to be looked up to.

[@Blaaake]

I’m a data analyst and I dabble in data science. I’m blown away by the amount of work that you’ve put into this on the probability calculations and statistics. Reminds me of a big project I did this year regarding complex forecasting algorithms. I need to find myself a cool rabbit hole like this to fall into.

[@redteam6631]

I've played minecraft for year and always wanted self sustaining tree farms. I knew that nether trees were the answer but don't know math or how to design. Many designs I saw were either too slow or need a bone meal farm hooked up to them to make them work. I'm a farm perfectionist, which is why your farm fits perfectly my criteria. This is the first ever video I've seen from your channel, but you earned a sub.

[@ncolyer]

thanks for leaving such a generous comment

[@tymt2304]

Just over 5 minutes into this video and it’s already the best Minecraft video I’ve ever watched by far. Well done!

[@ncolyer]

That's quite a wrap thank you!

[@SquishySkittlzz]

I've never been so intrigued by math but this video was amazing to watch from start to finish :D

[@ncolyer]

that's awesome, I totally agree that math can be quite bland but with purpose, a practical application, it's like the most intriguing thing in the world

[@SquishySkittlzz]

@@ncolyer 100% agree. I was always good with numbers and equations/math in general throughout school. Giving it a purpose makes it actually enjoyable to do instead of just mindless equations. Schools should learn from stuff like this and maybe sometime in the future

[@SuperLlama88888]

Wow, this looks like one of the most complicated farms ever designed... well done! The video was great as well!

[@ncolyer]

super comment cheers super llama :p

[@milangarden3963]

Nothing to say. You are the absolute god of nether tree. The farm is perfect, the math is perfect, the video is perfect, you are perfect. Thank you so much for your contribution to Minecraft technology.

[@gauribadukale2397]

Damn, the production quality on this. And that farm is literally the craziest tree farm ive seen. I see u like home's music

[@ncolyer]

yes home is pretty sweet

[@marilatte539]

It is insane how people like you build "machines" like this, I can't even imagine how much time must have gone into designing it. Especially if you consider all the customization options and safety features. Respect man

[@icmonster2174]

This is of the quality you would expect of a masters or full blown research project, this is ridiculous. Hats off to you for everything you did with this project, absolutely phenomenol!

[@ncolyer]

thanks! might actually end up being more work then what i'll spend on my thesis in a couple years..

[@EmdyMC]

Well worth the wait, best video I've seen all year!

[@butterfly-fy3wz]

Why did you betray WAIFU ;-; I expected better of you

[@ncolyer]

thanks heaps Emdy, that means alot knowing what tmc videos you've most likely seen this year alr

[@Lexiont]

This is insane, I've been seeing your videos about this topic and I have so much fun learning how the machine actually work. You're amazing!

[@NoahChoucair]

You are severely underrated. keep up the good work.

[@jamieleidinger8230]

I've been playing this game for 6 years now and im okay with redstone. I understand whats happening and how the redstone works, but being able to build that thing basically from scratch is unbelievable! Keep going and build more your a big part in the community. Thank you!

[@GreenJab]

Damn, One of the best TMC videos I have ever seen, and within it one of the farms that has had the most engineering behind it. I remember popping into your streams every now and again ages ago to see what else you had done NTF wise and its amazing to see everything come together in this video. Can't wait to see what do next.

[@ncolyer]

it's certainly been a journey and it's been wonderful having legends like you come along for the ride. can't imagine what the ncore videos going to be like in a year or so

[@dannbrown]

You need more attention by the YT algorithm, this video is simply amazing!

[@martvisser]

This is by quite a large margin on the most impressive TMC projects I've ever seen. What an incredible job well done!

[@ncolyer]

woah u really think so? tyty

This is gonna be a really epic video, i know that already. Ncolyor, thank you for the effort of doing all of it!

[@ncolyer]

my pleasure

[@johnirby8847]

20:35 Flow chart. The more I watch this, the more I'm amazed by the design. I was using comparators facing into droppers triggered by two observers facing each other and it would only drop 8 into each composter at a time. I had 12 composters. I had to use 20 stem growing spots just to keep it going for a few hours because I wasn't getting the extra bomemeal from a roots farm! This is pretty amazing!

[@ncolyer]

awesome ty

[@FenLupimo]

You're an absolute monster, well done, I could never in my life think about all of those things and create a fungi farm with MATH, good job!

i have never, in the entirety of my life, felt so captivated and continuously impressed by any single project before. the amount of technical knowledge + skill, community resources, troubleshooting, debugging, as well as just the raw amount of *time* put into one project, is a breathtaking masterpiece. not too mention the quality and work put into editing all this into a comprehensive and [relatively] short video. congrats man, this is insane 🎉🤍

sounds good, make sure u have a look through the User guide too once you've built it

[@vincentrau7428]

This ist technical Minecraft at it't absolute best. The amount of work that went into the math, the farm design and so on is just beyond insane

Wow incredible and underrated video ! So here is my comment to tickle the algorithm. Even if i'm just a newbie in redstone and farm automation, you did a great job explaining this with easy words to understand. Well done !

ah i greatly appreciate u leaving this comment behind after watching the vid. glad to hear you understood some bits of the explanation too :)

[@gismos]

not only the video but the machine itself is a piece of art, great work

[@BC18-18]

This is insane, wish I had the patience to build that on my survival server. But even if I did, servers are often very messy when it comes with precise redstone ticks

This is insane dude

[@SnailyTheSnail]

I absolutly hate math, but this video was incredibly interesting for me and that reall, really suprized me in the best way possible. The farm is also perfect for my world as well, cuz I need over 100k pistons and I was really afraid of the bonemeal farming and this is self sustaining. If you're wondering why I need 100k pistons, its cuz I'm mentally insane

[@TheTwober]

You are clearly insane. As an engineer I also love this more than I am willing to admit...

[@ncolyer]

clinically insane yes, am also trying to become an engineer whilst doing this lol. it's alotta fun tho

More mindblowing than this farm is the fact that your channel doesn't even have 5K subscribers...

[@ncolyer]

tmc is one of the worst niches to get into if u wanna grow a yt channel lol. I started my channel because I wanted a place where I could log my designs and explain how they work, it's evolved a bit from that idea but I don't think I'll start farming casual viewers with brain-dead content all to get more subs anytime soon, would rather make art with purpose

[@hampter4017]

You can get a lot more stems and shroomlights (around twice as much) at the cost of less wart blocks, the dualcore farm I made with Krebs does that. Dualcore still runs with one player so imo it's not a different category but I think ncolyer disagrees. This farm is still good tho and would be fine to build in survival+has the advantage of being self sufficient, although that's less of a big deal since moss farms exist

[@ncolyer]

@@hampter4017 yea it comes down to personal preference, dual core of this would go crazy tho
