Mango makes his life so much harder by going "yeah but this would be cooler" I love it

[@benjaminknight8041]

I couldn't stop thinking this the whole time. Definitely makes his stuff an echelon higher than the majority of technical Minecraft showcases

german mindset

[@Eis_]

@@ck88777 Reminds me of the time when they decided to use a certain track pattern for a tank because it was better but also complicated to fix and maintain. Really, the German mindset.

[@enolopanr9820]

that's why ilmango is best! he doesn't go for the easiest solution, he goes for the best one

[@dementionalpotato]

I mean that’s kind of the whole point of skyblock.

[@salvadorfeliperodbec]

Now ilmango has the technology to "render" a land for his skyblock world with flying machines.

[@helyushd6943]

thx for inspiring me: Ilmango HAS to use a similar system to build himself a super flat world in skyblock! You can generate dirt and cobblestone and spread it using flying machines which somehow detect the end of the build platform (maybe check for block push limit). Now you fill in row by row. You can load the flying machine by riding on it, if you use a giant block storage to feed this system, instead of a player requiring farming setup!!! You can use a counting system in the spawn chunks that counts the time the machine needs to return. It would have to count for a very long time (maybe hours) and I suggest you use some math: The idea is to have clocks with different timing. If they happen to fire in the same tick, they activate a AND-gate. Now you can hook any amount of clocks together on such a AND-gate. This system locks for the smallest number dividable by the timings of all clocks. If you use prime numbers the smallest number dividable is the factorial of the timings. If you use 3, 5, 7, 11 , its already 3x5x7x11 = 1155.... you get the idea

[@salvadorfeliperodbec]

@@helyushd6943 If you are talking about a sensor that checks if the "chunk" is filled I was thinking about an observer that activates a clock that if left on for more time than the time it takes for the flying machine to pass trough, stops the machine. if you are talking about other ind of clock... that + a hopper clock is the best I know. i am by far not an expert.

You can use a waterlogged chest or powder snow with carpet on top for the bottom of the drop chute

[@Niki1A_]

There is actually a much simpler way to negate fall damage. It is enough to fall *through* water to reset your fall damage height. So you can have water on the third Block above the floor (held up with a sign), making your final fall height 2 Blocks (which isn't enough to take damage), while also not having to walk out of the water.

[@zebedeesummers4413]

waterlogged chest (or even just a slab) is just the same as the sign method, both are elegant in different scenarios.

[@RobertHarris1]

@@Niki1A_ I wouldn’t say that’s much simpler than using the above two methods, it’s even slightly slower

Such a relief to see new vid again. Thank you, Ilmango, for your dedication and enormous amounts of work and time you put in these Series! Glad to see you enjoy it too

[@theclockworkcadaver7025]

This might be my favourite machine of yours yet. This is real engineering. Not only is it extremely functional, it's just a super elegant design. You've outdone yourself here!

[@Reelix789]

Man this episode had something particular to it, didn't expect to enjoy it this much. I could really feel the gears grinding in Mango's head when he was thinking out loud. Felt super real and intense, somehow. Genius, as always

[@mrtoast244]

Even though these videos are 45 minutes plus it feels so concise. The clean way it is edited is super nice. I love how there is barely any filler or high energy music, which lets us just learn from the Mango and see his design process.

[@MojoBeast]

The skyblock world is starting to look super cool at night - like a vast city full of skyscrapers full of machines!

[@TopekaGamer]

I love the thumbnail, it looks just like a city skyline!

[@TheDualJay]

For downwards chutes, I think having a single block of water suspended with a sign right a block or two above place you land is best. That way, you take no fall damage, fall at full speed for almost the entire path, and land in open air.

[@brandynamite3022]

or maybe have a waterlogged chest

[@matusbuzgo8366]

[@quinnencrawford9707]

For some reason, at about 31:00 when he said "we need to detect if it's full", i thought the logical thing to do when the storage is full is to blow up the dirt farm.

[@jonasgajdosikas1125]

Ilmango, you could just redirect the blockstream back to the blast chamber when the storage is full to not waste AFK time, as the resources used are not something that would be used up

[@ottodegelin5796]

Bro you're the Da Vinci of redstone, what a piece of art!

[@TMinusRecords]

This was the most unexpectedly amazing machine!

[@bijter]

This was an amazing episode, it even filled me with excitement seeing the huge cube in the block storage, and the idea of a humongous one... Damn.

[@MinebraineGM]

This is fantastic! It's always awesome to see this quality on redstone contraptions. Your years of study and knowledge really comes out fantastically at this point. Congratulations!

[@JawnMind_w]

This has entered the territory where I don't understand the Redstone and am now even more impressed!

[@autive42]

For the drop chute, powder snow with carpet on top will cancel all fall damage the same way as water. Alternatively, water just above where you land blocked by a sign works well and you just fall through it.

[@Liormatalon]

[@liftbridgetown]

this is an incredible ep! like a landmark for the skyblock and his channel! honestly, everyone digs a hole in minecraft but somehow ilmango does the EXACT opposite 😂

[@Nyerguds]

The simplest thing to put in the downwards shaft of a water elevator is air, with a waterlogged chest at the bottom. Breaks the fall 100%.

[@coleeolee]

Man, it’s crazy you were able to get make storage for Lego’s competitor in Minecraft. You truest are a genius

[@rcmrocks2374]

Honestly, this is a amazing series. It’s great seeing you make farms in a new way and designing all of this. 100/10 🎉

[@Frostshokula]

1:40 I prefer the drop chute with a bucket of water 3 blocks above the landing block with a button below it. It slows the momentum down for the fall damage. You have to scale the water based on the length of the drop though.

[@ZÏ̇̃]

As for the drop down chute (2:00) you could add a powdered snow block with a carpet on top. Should negate all fall damage

[@Zogg1281]

Seeing your world at night, without Gamma correction, looks really, REALLY, good! Thinking of the blocks individually and then realising that one section is basically one chest makes you realise how overpowered chest storage actually is. I know there's arguments over chest storage and people wanting the ability to be able to store more in a chest and I just find myself wondering more and more if Mojang could create a new storage device..... possibly a silo structure of some sort? 🤔

[@mrOverYeff]

Ilmango u outdid yourself on this one. Well now there is only one thing left, change your skyblock world to a flatworld. It's more of a joke obviously but it would be a fun thing to have as a final goal, just a huge area with a top layer of Gras and dirt and stone below that was build by machines like these. In that case taking a beafy server and tickwarping the hell out of it would be acceptable too I think haha

"Expandable, modular downwards flying machine" Did ilmango just solve the fastest way to drain oceans? Clearing perimeters for monuments or baby-proofing the nether instantly made 16 times easier.

[@ShootLiegh]

I don't think the flying machines are liquid proof. And even if they were, building one of these for each chunk you want to drain is hilariously resource inefficient

[@freddysfactory7631]

I like using waterlogged chests to drop onto, they are just small enough so you don't take damage and just big enough where you don't really notice it while walking over it.

[@brandonmack111]

Re drop chute: AFAIK, a waterlogged chest is the best block for negating fall damage - it's only slightly lower than a full block, so you can walk right off it, but it still counts as landing in water.

[@petrosthegoober]

You can fill in your whole skyblock world!

[@lumanaughty1025]

[@SvenWM]

now all you need a storage eater, that delivers all the stored blocks to you for mining :D

[@uncluckable6535]

You could also 'count' the cubes by putting items in a dropper equal to the number of desired cubes; when the dropper is empty, the cubes are filled.

[@EATZYOWAFFLEZ]

A drop chute would be much faster than the magma bubble column. If you put a sign at eye level and water above that, you'll take no fall damage and also not have your movement hindered when getting out.

[@ICountFrom0]

One of the best part of observer tech is how the most ordinary blocks are now able to be part of the data used in redstone. Leaves and logs. Walls and fences. Snow and grass.

[@techheadfred]

Amazing redstone as always ilmango! This is inspiring me to try building something similar in my "Skyflat" livestream series once I upgrade the world to 1.19, as I need an interesting way to bridge between villages floating in the void...

[@moritz_p]

This was such an inspirational video. Now I really want to try around with block storages. In general so many things I have been building need two players now that it is so easy to spawn a bot. I really want to change that now. Also this would make one able to no longer rely on TNT duping (or rely on TNT at all) in many cases which is nice. I wonder if it would be possible to extract the blocks afterwards and player-mine them automatically in a second step. I am already imagining a storage for millions of blocks that you could fill over a few days and then empty it out. I guess the end void would be the perfect place for that. I'll definitely try around with that soon. I am guessing it would not be trivial at all but it's a nice challenge. Edit: The end would probably not be the greatest idea since the possibilities for XP farms are limited. Still - it's an exciting concept and I am already having ideas 💡

[@darke-minecraft]

Epic solution. So satisfying to watch.

[@elghode]

dude are you dreaming redstone at night?? great explanation, learning alot from this.

[@yaseen157]

I think instead of a lever to send to block storage you could also use an RS NOR latch that disables the ability to select block storage, if said storage is full
