How Did 500,000 Pistons Make This?

I’ve been playing on the same Minecraft world for about a year now I’ve made countless Farms dug a giant hole built a giant forest made a disappearing island and constructed the end aquarium now despite all of this progress I’m so incredibly poor I may have infinite emeralds from a raid Farm endless

Diamond tools and armor from villagers but I lack one of the most important resources in the entire game Gold Blocks so let’s get a million of them we need to start with my neglect I’ve had this iron farm since episode 2 and has provided me with an insane amount of

Iron over the past year I’ve completely disregarded it for far too long it currently is still in the nightmare state of putting iron ingots directly into chess instead of having the nice upgrade of a shulker box loader that I’ve put on most of my Farms I mean just

Look at how horrible this is to deal with and that’s the shulker loader built and there’s the storage should be good for about 850 000 iron ingots that’s that’s enough for now now you may have thought it a strange detour to start with the iron farm but it’s

Completely necessary for a first main objective making around half a million Pistons oh this is oh this is actually a nightmare there’s there’s got to be a better way to do this and of course there is I’ll just need to get a bunch of Honey first which means upgrading the

Awful bee farm at the bottom of the nether with a much more efficient one here on top thankfully enxo4 always has my back in designing incredibly efficient Farms to build and this is no exception get out of here I just need to take these bees

Out of here and I think I’ll also tidy up this area in the meantime I leave way too many things in this world looking terrible Reading bees is probably my favorite tedious task in the game because I mean just look at them they’re absolutely adorable and I think they like me with all the bees in place and a little bit of AFK I should have all of the honey that I need in no time in case you

Haven’t guessed what my solution was it was to build a Mango’s Mass crafting system that feeds items efficiently to the player at an alarmingly fast rate and I think I’m gonna build it back here which I think means I get to dig a hole thank you Now this system is interesting because it functions based on putting in full shulker boxes of the materials you require in this case it’ll be four shulkers of cobblestone three shulkers of wood planks one shulker of iron ingots and one shulker of redstone dust now I’ve already taken upon myself to

Throw in one full set of items for a test run and if I select the piston recipe and turn this machine on then the material should be sent to me and staggered perfectly so I can continually Mass craft the Pistons and it seems to be working perfectly now

One of the biggest obstacles to crafting 500 000 Pistons is obtaining half a million redstone dust and I’m sorry but Ian’s raid Farm is not going to cut it which means it’s time for another upgrade and when it comes to upgrading Minecraft farms we must first destroy

The old so that we can replace it with the new Goodbye Mr villager man I’m sure you’ll land in the water yeah he definitely landed in the water Thank you And just like that the Old Farm is gone and if I just grab the materials this is where I’ll do the editing thing I have everything I need so we can build a medium-sized Red Zone Farm instead of the small Redstone farm that we just had You know it doesn’t really matter that I swear to never deal with these guys again something always makes me work with the Villagers and I I hate that oh look they’ve already started a family please get in the tower thank you may seem slow but this is the

Best way I’ve come up with to move them now if I just lock him in place I only need to do this a bunch more times I don’t know what you expected but I don’t need these ones anymore foreign this raid Farm is two-dimensional and this lava box is where all of the

Ravagers will get teleported to so they can be more easily killed off in the nether I just need to remove all of the support so that the lava can flow and hopefully I never teleport to this place by accident and with that part finished I can finally start this farm and get

All of the Redstone I require foreign [Applause] I have almost all of the materials I need for this project since the wood Farm was sorted out in episode 8 however the 2 million Cobblestone is not yet in my possession so you guessed it I have to dig another hole Thank you Foreign is it inefficient to build one tiny cobblestone generator many times compared to making one slightly larger cobblestone generator that works substantially faster yes yeah yes it is but this looks cooler so yes I did have all of the logs I needed but they have to be in plank form

And let me just say this is this is very tedious work Thank you foreign I have to continually take these little breaks to manually load these shulker boxes because it’s the most efficient way to store all of these items without making an absolutely insane storage system I’m in the nether because I thought I was going to make a perimeter

Here with all of those Pistons I mean I still am I’m just not going to use half a million Pistons because it’s like it’s incredibly Overkill so I’m just not going to do that because a typical perimeter looks something like this it’s big it’s like it’s really big okay

And that would take a long time I’m a very lazy person as you all know so I’m going to make a perimeter that looks like this it’s a lot smaller it’s it’s a lot smaller so I don’t know what I’m gonna do with the extra Pistons but I have

Them we’ll get to that later I guess now the reason I can get away with making a small perimeter instead of a big perimeter is because I can just drop my render distance down you can just drop your render distance it actually changes the render distance how else do I how

Else do I phrase this when you lower your distance in single player the number of chunks where mobs can spawn is actually reduced whereas in multiplayer when you reduce your render distance you just see less the mobs are still spawning there you just can’t see them with your eyes because your render

Distance is lower in single player when you drop your Ender distance you just stop having those chunks exist you don’t you don’t load them anymore so to take advantage of this little loophole we can just make a small perimeter so every time you see somebody make a huge

Perimeter in single player just they don’t need to so what we’ve learned here is that in single player you can just drop your render distance make a small perimeter save yourself a bunch of time so I’m going to do that because why would I spend all of my time making

A bigger perimeter when I don’t need one I mean that is the type of thing that I would do we’re still gonna break bad Rock it’s gonna happen like really soon I just have to edit that part after this part but anyways more video so I kind of need to make

Another mob switch so that gas don’t destroy the Bedrock breaking machine I’m going to be using it’ll be really fast though yeah like I said that didn’t take long and this mom switch is something I designed as an add-on to enxo4’s shulker farm so if you’re using that you can

Very easily attach this and have your own nether mob switch all I have to do is put in one Minecart and it will Loop endlessly until I get enough shulkers or until I feel like stopping it early but I won’t so it’ll just go until I it’s

Done here’s a slightly better free cam view to see that it is in fact working with the mob switch sorted out I can finally get around to using this absolutely incredible one block overhang three-way Bedrock Breaker designed by desidesu Link in the description as always That worked out pretty well and we only have to do it four more times foreign Just a brief interjection this is the least useful player transporter that I’ve ever made but it’s kind of it’s kind of silly looking foreign [Applause] [Applause] that was just about the coolest thing I’ve ever done anyways let’s dig a hole thank you now digging this out is not the hard part the hard part is getting rid of all of this lava in a timely fashion so instead I’m going to bucket all of these lava sources which is

Pretty much the slowest thing I can think of this should only take a few hours foreign Those eagle-eyed viewers amongst you may have noticed a little jump there in the time lapse yeah that was me pausing the time lapse when I went to the overworlds get more buckets and then forgetting to resume it until a while after I got back if you want to watch all of the

Bucketing in its Glory the hours long stream is available for you to watch but for now more digging bucket and I that’s what that’s what I named The Strider I have successfully removed all of the material within these chunks what’s left is to repeat the process that we did at the top and

Remove all of the Bedrock at the bottom but first I will swim bucket out of here because I mean he deserves a good home for all of the work he’s done for me almost at the top oh uh well we’ll just have to keep swimming back up foreign Foreign Foreign I have an announcement to make I’ve changed my opinion from earlier that was the coolest thing I’ve ever done I’m duping rails because I mean why would you craft them I’m once again using my favorite Minecraft mechanic update suppression the number of mobs moving through this Farm is so fast that it’s

Pretty necessary to remove the bottom obsidian from this portal so they can just fall straight down they’re more so going to appear to be launched out like a rocket ship more than a gentle free fall but we’ll get to that later Thank you foreign suppression over here is a little bit more complicated than what we just did in the Overworld why zero update suppression is extra tricky because instead of rails on the side of the portal you need a note block chain next to the obsidian so that after I slice

These portals we can remove and replace the bottom layer of obsidian and thankfully this flying machine exists already because I I can’t design this it’s absolutely not my forte just gotta turn this on slice the portal not bad not bad and then I get to sit here and mine obsidian

I mean it’s slow but at least it’s AFK able then I get to rebuild and ride the machine along to place magma blocks where all of the obsidian was and then repeat this like like so so many times And after several days that is the final block and I can finally stop doing this absolute Madness oh this looks so sick I still need to clean up the suppressor the area around the portals and of course the portals themselves As you can see these items haven’t gone through meaning the portal isn’t linked properly I’m gonna have to re-measure and move the Overworld side because I’m definitely not doing this again uh it all needed to be like 50 blocks to the side eating and now that the Overworld storage is

Done again I can finally drop my render distance and run this thing for the very first time holy now I made a copy of this world so I can spawn in a carpetbot to load the nether for us while I fly to the Overworld so we can see what it

Looks like on that end yeah it really shouldn’t take too long to get a million gold blocks but uh what do I do with them [Applause]
