I struck OIL in Minecraft Modded Skyblock | FTB Skies #7

This time on FTB Skies we build a plastic processing plant skip for a magical garden and strike oil on an island that didn’t even exist last week between episodes I’ve been scheming and building scheming and building on the building side I’ve just added a little bit of storage here inside our warehouse

And outside I’ve added a wonderful little launch pad area so we can launch all of our Rockets from here and I’ve just embedded the building a little bit better into the Landscapes we’ve sorted out the exterior we’ve planted some trees around the back and sides and it’s

Just generally looking a lot nicer on the scheming side I’ve built a big old board and I’ve worked out what we need to do to get oil which we’re going to need for Rocket Fuel if we’re ever going to get to the moon and let me tell you

It’s not a short Journey but don’t panic I’m not going to go through all of it with you here in fact I think let’s do this step by step and step one is this big old chain here which is to get plastic and to get plastic we’re going

To need to build ourselves some kind of a plastic processing plant and that’s what this big old area here is well it’s about three hours later and we’ve built this thing three times but it is actually now working and I was just editing the footage for it and basically

It was just really really boring and I don’t want to bore you thank God so instead of going into detail about all the different components over here and what we’re doing we’re going to do a very quick overview let’s see if we can do this in 10 seconds so over here we’re using

Fluid extractors to get liquid latex from these logs and we’ve got block places that replace the logs when they die all the liquid latex gets pulled into this tank over here the liquid latex from the tank then gets pumped into the latex processing unit and we get these tiny rubber balls the tiny

Rubber balls then get sent into the mechanical press and turned into dry rubber which then gets spat out and cooked by the lava and this gives us plastic and that explanation felt much more precise than whatever was going on in my previous edit but it’s basically a

Full step process and now we have all the plastic we need and I’ve also added a dissolution chamber which is also dragging some latex out of this area here and that’s because we needed that to add speed upgrades because this thing was actually very very slow so each one

Has a tier two speed add-on and well it’s making it much much quicker I’ll tell you that much so it might look a bit messy I’ll probably tidy it up at some point but for now we’re generating plastic and that is step one done so I can remove all these signs and feel

Really good about my self step two is to use the dissolution chamber to make a simple machine frame and as I say we do have the best solution chamber already set up over here so we should be able to get simple machine frames easy enough yep we have everything we need for this

Recipe although we are going to need to go cook up some Netherrack we don’t have Nether Bricks but we can easily make some let’s just give this a moment so I’m just going to stand here and use up these resources make 30 or so of these

Actually I wonder can I feed items into the hopper will this work I mean it’s slower than me putting them in there but it puts the recipe in excellent well we’ll just let that do its thing then so we’re making simple machine frames that was a nice and quick one so step three

Is to get netherite scraps which we need to get from crushed Netherrack the problem is we can only actually get these scraps if we put them through an amethyst mesh which means we need a man of steel mesh which means it’s time to make ourselves a fancy Garden we need to

Jump into Britannia because we need to get Mana steel and the only way to do it really is to Chuck iron ingers into a Mana pool so we need to create some Mana but when between episode beardy was planning he knew this was coming and look at this we actually have a small

New island that I’ve built over here around behind the back of our starter Island and this I think is where we’re going to put our lovely Magical Garden so let’s quickly head back to storage because there’s a few things we’re going to need to make to get this started so

The first thing I’m going to need is some floral fertilizers so we just need four stacks of dye and a stack of bone meal and look at that we’ve got a whole bunch of the stuff and we’re just gonna spam our new island with this stuff

We’re gonna get loads and loads of these mystical flowers and that should enable us to get started with Britannia so what are we getting okay so we can literally just just keep spamming look at this loads of things and thankfully we can vein mine these look at this all the

Flowers I’m gonna do that a few times just to stock up and now we have a batload of flowers I should probably find somewhere to store these things I think we’ll just dump them in some drawers for now this will do fine and I believe we can craft these down into

Petals yes that’s what we want because we need to make ourselves a pedestal it’s not a pedestal it’s a petal Apothecary that’s what we need and I guess we’ll just shut this down over here for now what does this do okay so what we can do is we can mix petals in

This thing and that will create other flowers for us which we will then use to make Mana but I need to feed water into this thing first so I guess it’s time to make another kitchen sink I think what we’ll do is just bury this underground and do that and hopefully that’s put

Water in it I don’t really know how it works doesn’t look like it’s plenty water in it am I gonna have to oh man I’m gonna have to do it manually all is not last we can at least I guess put the kitchen sink down there so we’ve got

Easy access to infinite water and then we need to start mixing petals I don’t know if there’s any sort of specific recipes should we just try a couple so if we Chuck in a couple of those and a couple of those is that going to do something looks like it’s doing

Something so the quest book’s telling me I should actually be making an endo flame which is one of those one of those and two of those and we’re getting some different colors now And oh I need to add what’s that what’s that little symbol there is that seeds I need to have seeds of some kind that would be why the quest gave me seeds yeah that makes sense okay whoa okay that was instant but now we have an endo flame excellent

What does that do you see I have done Britannia before but it was about two years ago and I can’t really remember much of anything so I think I’ve got the basics all figured out we’re getting ourselves some Mana steel it’s it’s okay it’s it’s fairly basic I guess we have

These things called Pure daisies and if we put logs around them like this we can get ourselves Living Wood which is uh then used to make other stuff we’ve only used it to make a wand so far though but if we do that with stone we get living

Stone and then we can make Mana pools and these flowers here are burning up these lumps and that’s creating Mana into this Mana spreader which then shoots at the Mana pool and then we can just drop iron ingots in here and get Man of Steel which is great although

It’s quite slow how many of these things do we need just before we look at that though this is our Battalion quest line we’ve made it to here I don’t think we actually need to do these things just yet so we’re probably going to ignore

Those for now as long as we can get Mana steel I’m happy although we’ll probably be back over here in future to do some other stuff and we need to make it look nice of course as well oh there we go the one just turn look at that more

Living Wood that I don’t really know what it does anyway we’re getting distracted we need to make Man of Steel meshes so that’s a nice easy recipe we don’t need much Man of Steel at all let’s just make one of them which gives us a black and Lotus what does that do

Apparently it’s just got loads of Mana inside it so do we just throw it in here well I can’t plant it I can’t eat it so Chuck it in there is that just giving us loads of Mana we get loads more of these now oh

It’s a banner in it we’ve got 45 of these things do they have any other uses I’m sure they do but now we’ve got our Mana steel mesh we need to upgrade it to amethyst and I believe we do actually have a budding amethyst I’m pretty sure

We found one in a chest in the nether question is where would I have put it there it is budding amethyst so I guess for now it’s probably gonna make sense to put this over here as well hopefully we can move it in future if not so let’s

Just put that there I guess what in the world a thing just came out of the amethyst oh and stone so I guess we just kind of need to wait for the amethyst to grow because we need some shards before we can do anything else and I guess while

We wait for that I might spend a bit of time over here in the garden see if we can make this place look nice well it might not be the fanciest Garden in the world but it’s my garden and I love it so let me just take a quick look I’ve

Basically just made it a little bit messy I’ve used frame drawers so we can actually blend in the drawers with the sort of walkway up to the pedestal and then I’ve just gone for a bit of symmetry so we’ve got Mana pools in every corner we’ve got all the Mana

Generating flowers here and here and I’ve left these spaces because my theory is sled might actually be some other flowers that might be a little bit more useful than these ones because these only generate Mana when you’re actually burning things well this should do the trick for when we need stuff in future

At least that’s the hope and I’ve also got these pedestals off to each side so I’ve got one there one there and a third one over there so I can still make living Rock and Living Wood when I need to should I ever actually need to anymore who knows but that all looks

Good apart from this which is definitely in the wrong place it is in the way but we’ve managed to get ourselves 19 amethyst chance I’ve been harvesting this as we’ve been sorting out the garden it does actually seem to grow quite quick which is nice so we should

Now be able to make ourselves the amethyst mesh look at that oh it’s all purple and nice and we still have this solitary Crusher over here so I guess we can just use that for now but we need to put crushed Netherrack in there but we

Don’t have any Crush now the rack so we’re gonna need to make some of that as well I feel like we might be a little bit cramped in here so I’m actually gonna go and move this somewhere else I’m thinking maybe we can find a little

Bit of space over here we only need something simple for now just to get the netherite coming we can always upgrade it later and I reckon we can probably squeeze something in around here somewhere there we go we’ve just about managed to cram something in and we’re

Getting all these random things I still don’t really know what these triangles are but the main thing we’re after is the netherite scraps they’ve got a great big box these ones have got void things on them so once they fill up they’ll just well go into the void I guess any

Excess we don’t need to worry about that but it’s very simple around here we’ve just got some pedestals generating Netherrack from these Nether Bricks and that’s going straight into these little Crushers and then well it’s getting crushed and then we assess think through that and that’s giving us all these

Drops and they go into these tunnels which are then filtered into the right boxes so a nice simple system and that’ll do for now we may upgrade it at some point but now we’ve got another big job to do we need to make pink slime and

For that we need to make a mob Slaughter Factory and once again I don’t really know what I’m doing here what is going on here what what am I wearing what apparently I had an endomite statue on my face so we need to make a mob Slaughter Factory to get pink slime and

Apparently slaughtering passive mobs makes for better slime where can we possibly find a passive Oh my days jeez I mean for once we do actually need some passive mobs but I don’t need that Island there for for oil later because it’s in an ocean and that’s where we get

Oil from so despite the sheer amount of pigs over there I think what we might actually do is kind of remake our mob Factory that we have in the bottom of the windmill so I might actually go in there steal all the delightful dirt and build another building up here maybe put

Something around here somewhere there’s not a lot of spaces there I’ve taken up too much space for me landing pads but I reckon we can cram a small building in here and we’ll put the mob Slaughter Factory in here I guess so it looks like

We need to do a little bit more on the industrial foregoing Quest chain we kind of need sewers and breeders and all these sort of slaughtery type things and this is what’s going to get us over here to the advanced machine frame which is where we’re trying to get so I’m going

To make a bunch of components and see if we can figure this out so I’ve made the mob Slaughter Factory and what it does is it basically destroys any mobs within a range in front of it which by default I think is just one block yep so I have

Made a massive range tier if we add that and have a look look at that look so that will cover an absolutely massive area we only needed to cover a five by five area but that’s good that means we could probably make use of one of these

Islands maybe I wonder because what I’m thinking is we could just cover that Island in delightful dirts and then put the mob thing down here maybe and just pump it straight up into some tanks and then we haven’t even got to put a building down we can just get away maybe

With a couple of stores tanks let’s give that a go maybe we just got to find the perfect position for the mob Masher well the mobs are disappearing so I assume it’s eating them yeah look at that we have loads of liquid meat and a tiny bit of pink slime

All right so knowing this is gonna work is good but the problem is this stuff grows grass every now and then so can we put something into maybe flood the island every now and then we have a tiny amount of space inside we might be able

To fit something in so I think I’ve got it all worked out we’ve got two timers both set to 6 000 ticks but this one should fire about three seconds before this one so in theory it should fire this dispenser twice and that’s just going to deploy a bucket of water and

Wash away all the bad bads all this grass that’s what we don’t want and hopefully that’s going to keep the slime coming in for us but I appear to be very very hungry so I should probably go get some food before I kill myself and then

We’ll get the rest of this build sorted and get the storage tanks in and that was actually a lot easier than I thought it was going to be so we’re all set up now we have the meat going into this one the Slime going into this one and of

Course our Island over here which it looks like it may have actually just been washed I’ve had to adjust the shape a little bit just to make sure the water actually spreads out and there we go so now we have a clear thing and it should start spawning low it’s look at that

Beautiful work so that was nice and simple I enjoyed that although it would be nice to have a record I guess of how much stuff is actually in there but we also need to pipe this over here somewhere because we need to move on to step five and step five is making

Advanced machine frames and for that we need to use a dissolution chamber again like we do with the normal machine frames I forgot my stairs are on this side let’s not talk about that so we need to set up another one of these but instead of latex it wants to have pink

Slime pumped into it so I guess we can probably just Pump It On The Ground to this spot here and have a sitting next to this one that should be easy enough and how’s our netherrite scraps doing 506 excellent there we go we now have pink slime feeding into a second chamber

And now we should be able to make the things that we need and I think the recipe is two of those two of those and lastly two of those yep that appears to be doing the thing let’s see if we’ve got any speed upgrades there we go that

Should make it much faster so if we just Chuck those things in there now that we’ve locked the recipe that just go ahead and make loads of these things for us good stuff so step five that was nice and easy wasn’t it and that brings us one step closer to getting oil not

Much left to do and to be honest I think step six is crafting the things that I need step six doesn’t exactly roll off the tongue does it step six should actually result in oil we just need to make a couple of things first so I have

My fluid laser base I have my drills and I have some great laser lenses but I have no idea what to do with them I do know however that if I want oil I need to be in an ocean biome and that’s what we’re going to use this island for so

I’m going to quickly read up on the laser drill and I’ll let you know what’s going on in a moment so I think I’ve got it set up correctly however there is a slight problem lukewarmotion is not one of the biomes I can actually get oil in

I need to go to a normal warm ocean and I think we’ve got one just over here look just just here it’s not too far away at all so in theory you might be able to get away with doing it on this island here if we make it a tiny bit

Bigger oh look at that we might not even need to make it bigger we might just have to put the tiny tiny oil rig over here let’s move it across well it’s not pretty but I’ve got it all linked up and hopefully yes it’s creating oil a very

Very small amount of oil we need to get some more speed upgrades on this but at least we know it’s working it’s in the right place we’ve just got to make this all look a little bit nicer because well I don’t really want that cable going across I wonder if there’s Wireless

Power and I guess we’re also going to need to transfer the liquid over to the other Island somehow as well so I guess pipes could look quite cool for that just really not a fan of these bright red things well it’s not the prettiest thing in the world but it does the job

It’s kind of like a tiny little oil rig jammed on that island hopefully I can improve that over time but we have our oil all being pumped over and that is now going into this vat over here and not only that I discovered we can have wireless power so I built these things

Energy transmitters so I had to slightly expand my mechanical crafting table but I built a couple of these and they basically just send the rotational power wirelessly and then inside that Island we have an alternator to get Fe power and then we use the spinny power to

Power the pipes but this is good we finally have oil coming in and that means we’re so close to being able to launch our rockets and also in here I’ve just pulled through all the key information so we have our oxygen hydrogen latex supplies as well as slime

Meat which to be honest with you I have no idea what this is used for and also of course our oil and we’ll have one up here for Rocket Fuel as well once we start processing that but that is Step six complete which means we can get rid

Of the last of our signs and we really have done a lot today and I think that’s where we’re gonna have to leave it but next time we’ll get our Rocket Fuel and hopefully we’ll go to the moon thanks for watching I hope you enjoyed it and

I’ll see you on the next one bye now
