I love watching Pearl figure out Create mod stuff. There's so much pressure for people to build the best, fastest, fully optimized farms, but that can kill creativity and exploration. It's fun to cobble together all the bits and bobs to create something unique. I also have a bee farm in my server. I absolutely agree that the vanilla observer and dispenser honeycomb farms are much better than trying to make something crazy with the Create mod deployers. It's too expensive and inefficient. I do love Create mod for honey collection, though. I've built a vanilla honey farm before, and it is so nice to have a mod that takes away all of the redstone comparators and minecart distribution systems. It just needs a pipe to suck the honey out, and that's beautiful.
@nyahnyahson523 Жыл бұрын
That's what I love about the Create mod. You can just make things that look good, and they produce enough stuff that you don't need them to be like. ""Optimal."" This is especially an issue in like vanilla, where you literally cannot reasonsbly use many blocks without making farms or spending an insane amount of time doing stuff.

I noticed the copper button redstone glitch in another of your episodes earlier when you rightclicked a copper button somewhere in your base to deoxidize it, and it dropped 2 redstone at once. I figure this happens because the copper golem ability spawns redstone from ANY action a button triggers from being rightclicked, rather than just the actual pressing of it; therefore when you deoxidized a button it gave one redstone from pressing it, and one from deoxidizing it, and the shift-rightclick glitch works because sneaking prevents you from pressing the button, and just makes you try to scrape it, and each attempted scrape gives one redstone, even if it doesnt actually scrape anything

Quick tip about the create mod washing/blow-smelting/smoking mechanics!!! Speed only changes the distance the fans blow, not the speed at which they transform the given item, the amount of fans do that (you can have up to 9 fans on a single item (10 if you blow from the bottom although it’s not sensible). When on a conveyor belt, the block next to the conveyor belt (at the same y level) is where you could put an extra fan (and then imagine having that on all 4 sides, then one on top facing down, that’s 9). So for the setup you have right now, you could have an extra row of fans on top facing down (just be careful with blocking off the water carefully with gates) and another at the same level of the belt in the same direction as the current one. And they can all be at the slowest setting and it doesn’t affect the speed at which they transform the items. happy creating :)

I think it is safer to assume he wouldn't like it than to risk crossing boundaries, but asking him is probably the best shout tbh. I also would argue that times he expressed discomfort previously, like with 'copper husbands' in rats smp, he was also playing a character despite sharing a name with the character, so that could mean he would be uncomfortable in this situation too, but maybe sharing name with the character is what tipped it over the line so idk
