I Coded a Minecraft Update in 7 days

Minecraft 1.20 trails and tales looks amazing so far, and I'm even happier that Mojang is giving some attention the desert temple through archeology features. And that got me thinking... what would a desert pyramid overhaul look like?
So I challenged myself to code a #Minecraft desert temple update #datapack in 7 days.

[@wormantor6979]

This is super cool, however I would be careful with adding too many chests. I saw that most of the rooms have multiple chests. Adding too many chests reduced the excitement you get from opening a chest and just makes it feel more tedious to look through all the chests. Also I would refrain from giving too many overpowered items. For example maybe a maximum of one piece of diamond armor, one ankh, and one god apple. If too much op stuff is given then it ruins the balance of the game

[@DAWNFOREVA]

Nah, the more op stuff the better it makes the game really fun It’s so exciting to explore a structure and get a diamond hat chest and boots inside it, aswell as 2-3 god apples. It would make you feel so good. Especially if you’re not much of a miner (me) too many chests can be a little overpowered so I would put 1-2 in each room. But let’s be honest. If you found full diamond armor and 3 god apples you would be happy

[@wormantor6979]

@@DAWNFOREVA yeah you’d be happy, but then it would take away from all the other structures in the game. No point exploring anything else if you just got full diamond armor from one structure

[@RouxTheKitsune]

I think for balance, each sand summoned should take away some XP, as of you were using it as mana. And each sand can only hit an entity once before it expires. And maybe add a cap on the sand you can summon, like maybe 50.

The only part of this that gives it a non vanilla feel is the sword. Mojangs weapons usually don't have special attacks aside from enchantments but the way you executed the sand attack felt semi-vanilla and you somehow made it look like a built in feature

True the sword is way over the top and not remotely balanced lol. But you got me thinking, maybe I should add a custom enchantment or something next time 🤔

@@therealwisemysticaltree bedrock all runs on the same coding language that was the whole point of the better together update. the amount of times they had to code something was twice. A company as funded as mojang has no excuse for 1-2 updates a year solo modders have able to add way more in not only way less time but for free and by themselves. I understand minecrafts sandbox nature but its also a survival game. If it wants to keep that title we need some actual content. Like i cannot express how much of a dissapointment trails and tales is. Archeology only exists as a way to get sniffers who only exist to get seeds who's plants give you already existing dyes. Sure camels are kinda cool but their functionality couldve just been a simple update to horses like they did with boats. Its only so long before the game gets boring and people stop playing.

It just seems kind of out of place for minecraft when you can spawn billions of sand blocks but the design itself isn't that bad just needs some tweaking.

There Definetly should be some kind of limiter. I would not say durability since mending exists, so maybe something like hunger? Back in the day alot of modded items used hunger since if you use an item to much you are forced into a difficult position of being vulnerable since you have to eat.

[@CarbonatedPetrol]

I'd say instead of having the ability using hunger or durability, it should have a cooldown each summon, limit of sand blocks, use sand from your inventory and perhaps each sand block could disappear after it hits an entity once or twice.

Nowadays: 1 year later - armadillo Every 1.5 years - here’s a major update (ps you have to guess which features won’t be added because we don’t have enough time, and will be added in the next update) For example the pottery update was meant to be with the Caves and Cliffs update and was only just added🤣🤣🤣 Edit: Just googled caves and cliffs was June 2021, it took them another 2 years to add some of the content🤣🤣🤣🤣

What if you re-added the shulkers but as a new variant that gives you a sort of reverse levitation that drags you downward, so trying to escape is difficult because if you're climbing your way back up, it'll force you back down and you'll have to avoid the bullets and kill them to be able to get all the way up

@@charliemalick8985 Thank you! In the video, I used datapacks, which are different than mods. They're much easier to make and can accomplish like 90% of what someone would usually want to do with a mod. If you're interested in making datapacks, I'd say Legitimoose is the best by far if you're an absolute beginner. This is the very first video I followed that got me started: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nJXSkHhsZtuJotk I recommend watching it from start to finish and actually making the Penguin Cannon alongside him. If you truly want to learn modding, you'll need to learn Java first. Once you have the basics down, you should follow this playlist: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iITUhI2lf7aLrMk You could also learn datapacks first, then learn modding later (I recommend this for people without coding experience). The nice thing about doing that is that the general knowledge about how minecraft works will carry over when you finally pick up modding. Hope that helps, and best of luck :)

Bruh this is proof that mojang is just lazy. They always say tHe uPdAtEs aRe hArD tO mAkE, and then they take like 1 year to release the smallest updates, but this guy makes an epic update in just 1 week.

[@carviz7199]

you dont understand they have multiple versions in different programming languages, so they have multiple teams that are split instead of one giant team, multiple games, including minecraft legends which they were spending a lot of time developing at the time, have to bugtest and playtest, have to rewrite old code (both to make newer updates more efficient and also to account for updating programming languages), have to please microsoft, make sure every niche of players is satisfied, and make sure content feels "minecrafty"/doesn't stray too far away from the game. plus, the video is about a datapack about a single structure, while mojang must make a whole update in different programming languages. mojang is not lazy, you just do not understand the development process.

[@ItsEvanHere]

He implemented this in a data pack though. If Mojang used the backend they use for datapacks they could easily implement stuff like this too. Almost makes me think Mojang should experiment with implementing stuff purely in datapacks...

In light of the recent Minecraft Live 2023 and how little they are adding to the game with each update, this is the perfect rebuttal to people claiming Mojang works hard.

[@leilagotspaz]

3:06 Very nice Spelunky 2 trap. For reference, in Spelunky 2 you do basically the same thing (use an ankh to live through the room you are in filling entirely with lava.) It reveals a special door that allows you to more forward with a Cosmic Ocean run. Fun to see the same trap used in a different context! Especially such a fitting one.

I hope people enjoy these and are in awe of what individual creatures/small teams are capable of while also understanding modpacks are a completely different from full updates for the main game. They are completely separate entities. That being said, if a small creator could effectively mod this into other versions of Minecraft, all the parity bells and whistles, you are one upping Mojang in the best way possible. Keep up the good work!

[@SarzaelX]

This is just what having an effective workflow is like. Microsoft's overly restrictive and inefficient policy can (and imo should) be criticised. Yes, this isn't completely polished or perfectly designed, but half of the features that make it into Minecraft aren't either, despite their claims of "extensive quality testing".

[@AvidMc]

Loved the video Whimzee! The idea was awesome and the execution was brilliant. Every room had so much polish and character. Amazing! And heck yeah Zep really is the best builder!

a minecraft youtuber on their way to do more work in a week than mojang does in a year

[@WispicNebula]

It's a DATAPACK Not the game It's different

[@Oussuk]

It is way harder to put out an update rather than a mod. First they have to come up with an Idea, then they have to make sure it isn't too complicated, then they have to develop the mobs design. They also have to go through a bunch of legal shit to make sure it's original and can be used in their product, then they have to make sure it works well with other game features, and then and only then can they start development. Now they have to develop it for 2 completely different coding programs as well as porting it to other consoles all with different hardware limitations. Then they have to make sure it runs well and if they screw up, back to the drawing board. And after all of that happens, repeat all of those steps until they have an update.

[@tqrrxr]

@@Oussuk ok that still doesnt justify 1 year of waiting with a massive team that mojang has

Its not really and indie company anymore especially after Microsoft bother them. They have so much fuckin money that it blows my brain how they have to even spend a whole fuckin year to develop an “update” that, let’s be real, sucks cause they cut out half the stuff saying they need “more time”

Dude, how do you have only 16K subs? This is much more impresive, than what can Mojang do in 1 year

[@flamingosoup6375]

the thing is though, he isn't limited to the confines of what Mojang considers "vanilla", this clearly shows in the fact that the whole "update" feels very modded. Which is fine, but it's not fair to compare mods to official Minecraft updates. Sure it takes a really long time for Mojang to update the game, but most of the time spent on development isn't just coding. They have to come up with completely fresh ideas so they aren't accused of ripping from the modding community, which is already hard enough because Minecraft has one of the biggest modding communities of all time. Not only that but they also have to make those ideas feel as vanilla as possible without straying too far from the core aspects of what makes Minecraft..... Minecraft. Mad respect to this guy, but I don't think it's fair to compare him with Mojang considering how much creative freedom he has.

[@zejry]

@@flamingosoup6375 ok sorry dude, but this is lots of words, so i've read only some stuff from it Yeah I know, it's hard to come up with ideas, that could fit minecraft, chill dude, idk why everytime I say something random, someone turns it into 500 words lecture

[@nathanpfirman625]

@@flamingosoup6375 they also have to fix every bug and make it balanced as this would not be balanced at all and minecraft runs on its own game engine and they would have to code in entirely new functions rather than just modding in things using already added functions.
