Taking Back My Record in the Dumbest Category Ever

[@squibble111]

its midnight and i got work to do but i literally just found out that striders in minecarts are at the exact height necessary to pull off said alignment, making piston bolt hoeburners possible. this has to be some sick joke

[@Imperial_Squid]

I was just about to comment asking if you tried riding a mob in a minecart lol

[@NeverSnows]

Rip sleep. Good luck.

[@juanma4978]

just saw the video, great work! an idea though, couldn't you make a piston bolt that applies regen + instant health to the player and put the player through the block that is hoing? the extra health makes it not suffocate (though it would be funny that the machine killed you). I dont know if you can hoe a block that you are suffocating in/inside of, but maybe worth a try? cheers

[@AGryphonTamer]

I'm a bit tired, so not sure if this works, but why can't you just move the player faster? Or maybe hoe at an angle? I wonder if there's an angle where you could hoe more than 5 pieces per tick. If there is I bet you could slightly go faster.

[@11darklight11]

@juanma4978 while your idea might work, it wont be fast enough because you will hoe only the block your are inside of, the strategy with the aligning is faster because you get access to rows of dirt instead of 1 at a time

[@avogaado]

Oh nice you managed to make it faster, congratz on the record! Although you have severely underestimated my pettiness if you think I'm just going to let you keep it :)

[@David-McCormick]

Idea to be faster: essentially this same design, only "two" of them side by side so that you are moved across between them, but an entity "boost" in the middle that also triggers a reset of the dirt. This way you almost never slow down and are constantly in front of new dirt.

This reminds me of the one guy who played the same mario kart track for 6-12 hours a day, every day for six years, just to eventually pull off this unlikely sequence that would save him 0.3 seconds on the track, making him the world record holder instead of him being tied for first with 30 other ppl.

I feel like introducing mods just completely shatters the point of doing a challenge like this. Like, with mods the answer is 1 tick, with my custom utility function that depletes durability

[@SamFisk]

Agreed

[@ncolyer]

you clearly don't get how client side mods work. hoe durability is stored on the server side, no client side mod you have can change that directly.

[@Duckyosis]

Have you heard about the new oneshot strategy used for set seed speedruns? It makes use of the dragon’s knockback to make the player get launched at light speed and because the damage from shooting a bow depends on how fast the arrow is going, if you’re going super fast at the time of the bow getting shot, that also makes the arrow go super fast and powerful enough to kill the ender dragon in one arrow. You see, there is a point in the dragon’s hitbox, the ‘tickle spot’, which is the center of the dragon’s knockback. The amount of knockback you get is depending on how far you are from the tickle spot. The formula is complicated but basically it’s something like the speed the dragon is going divided by the distance from the tickle spot. So if you’re really close the knockback gets exponentially bigger, and if you’re exactly on that point when the dragon starts moving, that is, zero away from the point, you’ll get almost infinite knockback, because anything divided by zero is infinite. So maybe you could try something like this to get you moving, and therefore, using hoe durability, even faster. There’s probably a bunch of reasons why this won’t work but maybe it’s worth looking into. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[@LeLe-pm2pr]

you'd also need infinite fps, as the auoclicker clicks once per tick, but that makes it possible to theorically break a netherite hoe in a single tick

[@Duckyosis]

@@LeLe-pm2pr yeah. That would basically be the limit

[@kristsostad7571]

Sick idea

[@xxxzinkoxxx774]

Just one nerdy correction, when dividing things as the denominator gets closer to zero, it approaches infinity. Anything divided by zero is undefined. If you graph Y=1/X, you can see it forms a clear asymptote. I theorize that one of two things would happen if you were to attempt to perfectly align at the exact center of the dragons knock back. Firstly it may be impossible to be at the exact center because of how hit boxes work meaning you can’t be at that perfect divided by zero point. The other possible thing is that you can be at that exact divided by zero point, and nothing would happen because the game because the game has no direction to add velocity so nothing happens

[@autumn4442]

I feel like you could adapt the moving rows idea to go even faster by staggering the rows so that you hoe along a diagonal, since that will let you reach more blocks within the same distance

[@Gio_Panda]

My favorite thing about all redstone videos is that redstoners are extremely wholesome and supportive of each other, always shouting out other people builds and videos, in an unending circle of praising.

Seems like you are still missing a lot of dirt blocks tho, so it might be worth looking for a mod that has faster clicks or optimize the machine to allow for optimal dirt tillage. Still, I'm interested to see how long it will take until the ultimatum will be met. Very nicely done!

[@lunaeclipse4304]

idk how these work very well, but wouldn't it in theory be better if the player was at a 45 degree angle? especially for avogaado's design. if you could move the dirt fast enough, it would in theory put twice as many dirt blocks in front of the player

[@TheJunky228]

if you did avogado's setup but set up pistons to supply like a 2*5 wide area of dirt, you could look a little diagonally so your view intersects more blocks

[@RELapis]

I think you could have the player facing diagonally to hoe more, over than being a straight line. As I believe you can hit more than 5 blocks when facing at an angle. So zero-ticking a zig-zag diagonal might be faster? Maybe?

[@lancasterchurch4747]

my problem is that it uses mods. which changes the record type imo. at that point you could just mod in a breaking enchantment/curse.

[@elderfrost9892]

I mean a client side mod for clicking really fast isn't the same as changing the way the game actually functions, but I see the point. technically if you're using client side mods, you could create one that also just aimbots all the dirt reachable in an area, which would be probably at least triple the speed if you use the same method of moving back and forth

[@cowcat8124]

​@@elderfrost9892Can you normally make 4 farmland in 1 tick without the mod?

[@ncolyer]

@@cowcat8124 yes, you can achieve faster than 20 clicks a second by physically clicking faster than that which is used quite often in pvp

[@Mrcoolexander]

I saw a video just 5 minutes after watching yours and avocados seeing that a diamond hoe (or a wooden hoe with efficency 5 haste 2) can instamine moss blocks. I tried doing this with the piston bolt system but didn't quite get it to work. Im no minecraft expert, i downloaded the tweakaroo mod to increase my CPS but maybe you know something i don't. I think using a faster way of transportation with an instamining hoe is a great contender since the facing orientation also doesn't matter. You could go in a straight line and break blocks ontop of you for example.

[@squibble111]

Its actually only possible to break 20 blocks per second. Unfortunatley, hoeing is going to be the superior method when it comes to wasting durability

I used the exact same autoclicker he used in the very first design. There are certain mods that are generally considered to be acceptable as "vanilla". Tweakaroo is one of them.

[@jared_per]

A bit of a shot in the dark, but can you get the right height if you are in a pistonbolt riding a camel/strider etc that is riding the minecart?

[@MrMoon-hy6pn]

I actually tested them and a strider in a mine cart is at the right height, so I think it would be worth a shot. A camel is too high and too wide so would suffocate if the blocks are too close, thus you would lose out on potential blocks/tick anyway, same with horses and donkeys. Interestingly using the ride command a creeper is also the right height XD but I think using commands goes against the spirit of the challenge.

[@jared_per]

@@MrMoon-hy6pn I love that you tested riding a creeper. The funniest thing is I don't think you could complete the challenge since you have to be in survival. Unless you did no ai.

@@jared_per why thank you :). Also you can actually ride the creeper in survival without it blowing up, its eyeline just needs to be obstructed from the players eyeline somehow like with a slab or trap door so it’s totally possible.

[@ardynizunia9709]

2:27 Doesn't it kinda invalidate the whole thing to use mods? If you're allowed to use mods then anything goes and I can just make a modded block that takes all durability whenever a tool interacts with it to break a netherite hoe in one tick. Sure, it's a very exaggerated example, but you get my point. If we use mods to allow faster right clicks to push the game beyond what's possible per tick in vanilla, then where do we draw the line? As such I don't really think using mods counts. It takes away from the challenge of coming up with technology within the game as you can just outsource any problems you might have to some mods that fix them. At the very least, any actual category obviously should specify what version has to be used and if allowed, which mods have to be used.

[@squibble111]

Without mods, the fastest design is the first one. Its not allowed by vanilla to click faster than 20 times a second. There are a few mods that are largely considered by the technical community to be "vanilla". Tweakaroo is one of them, and it allows for the category to have any depth at all, which in my opinion is best

[@ardynizunia9709]

@@squibble111 Again, as I said, if we call it a category, then the mods yall consider vanilla need to be specifically listed in the rules of the category. My point was simply that you need to draw a line somewhere, otherwise I can easily break your record by using complete nonsense mods that would be obvious cheating.
