It’s About Time – Season 2: Episode 10 – Sector 17 SMP Minecraft Server

Hey there cubers my name is plus2 and welcome back to another episode of minecraft on the sector 17 server this is episode 10 and today we have got a lot to talk about so we are starting this episode off over here at the gaming district on top of

Our chorus fruit maze that we built in the last episode and it has been beaten the the maze actually only lasted about three days without being beaten and not to discredit the person that beat it but the maze was beaten because my redstone didn’t work or i guess i didn’t plan

On every contingency with the redstone as i designed it a quick explanation of what the problem was the person that beat it they set the end reporter and hit the button and the timer did not start so they actually ended up getting trapped inside the maze which allowed them to have significantly

More time in the maze to wander around and explore than what i had originally intended um this giving them more time to locate the end of the maze and finish the maze and collect their prize so they were able to do that and they did collect the prize

And the the game is still open people are still able to visit and try to complete the maze but there is just no prize and there’s no charge to run the maze it’s completely free for anyone to use now but it has been beaten very sadly

Now it has actually been a little over a week since i have been logged into the server and to be completely honest with you i’ve actually restarted this episode as you can see there’s a little bit of progress made on this build right here which was my

Plan for this episode and still is my plan that’s what we’re gonna be building is the structure that goes on top of this space but i actually started this episode once before and started with work on that and then i stopped recording and i stopped working on the server for

About a week a little over a week here and there’s a couple reasons one is that i got super distracted with a different project and i just didn’t have the desire to sign and play at the moment um as i was too focused and distracted with that other project

And for that project there will be a video coming out on the channel soon if it’s not already released but another reason is that i wanted to take a serious look at the way that i had been editing these episodes and do some minor improvements to them i feel

Like the way that i had been editing these episodes was fine i don’t think there was anything wrong with the way that i was editing but it was a very sort of cookie cutter typical style of editing videos like this and it didn’t really have any sort of my personality

In the edits themselves or the work that was going into the episodes behind the scenes was very much just this is what we’re doing this is how we’re doing it cut cut cut here’s the video and i didn’t like that i thought i could do a lot more with putting my own personality

Into the edit itself and i think the videos will turn out a little bit better so hopefully as long as everything is coming out how i want it to hopefully you’ve noticed a couple things different about this episode already and if you did or even if you didn’t let me know in the

Comments below what you think so far because i have been putting a lot of time into the graphics for this stuff here and just the the entire revamp of the editing style and everything that goes along with it on the back end so if you

Liked it please let me know so with this episode as i said i’m trying out a few different things editing wise and what we are going to be doing is working on this build here this will be our primary goal for this we should have all the

Resources that we will need to complete this build here and that is going to be the first thing that we are good to do today so let’s go ahead and kick that Thank off So So All right guys and that is that build finished up that came out extremely well i’ve actually had this build plan for quite a while so it’s really really cool to have this finally built up on the server here and to be able to see it when it’s actually done i yeah

Love wow love the way that came out there’s still a few more things i need to do with it but for the most part that is finished i love the scale of it obviously so something i wanted to point out with this um if you were to consider this to be

Actually happening right to be actual real things these four balloons would never be able to hold up this platform and this massive clock tower would never happen uh but for me that’s sort of what helps to lend itself to the steampunk style is as things holding up they

Shouldn’t ever be able to actually hold up i mean three balloons that size would never hold up a ship this size in my ipad no i’ve never done the math on it i don’t know i wouldn’t expect it to it doesn’t look like it should

But that’s kind of what makes it work as the as a steampunk style and that perfect okay now actually i wanted to do one other thing real quick since i’ve logged back onto the server here and started playing again i haven’t actually gone and checked in

My shops so let’s run over to the shopping district real quick and take a look and see if we have made any sales in the week i’ve been gone i guess it’ll be an interesting opportunity to see what has changed on shopping district 2. So far i don’t see much who’s this wait it’s that that hello so the server did get a few new people uh in the week that i’ve been gone so i i dad’s that is the first one i have actually seen on the server so that’s cool it’s cool to see new people

Joining in all right let’s have a look here oops oh look at that we did sell some didn’t expect to sold any stone uh that yep electrosmt hey very cool wow holy cow you know i bet i have a lot of the new people to thank for that um lots of hello

One diamond per stack oh uh-huh okay wow interesting okay that looks so bizarre i like it uh anyway yeah most of the gear that was in that chest specifically the gear chest um wasn’t really all that great i didn’t really look at any of it um because i didn’t really need any gear

Myself so i just put whatever i got up for sale uh but most of it definitely was not all that fantastic so i’m betting i owe a lot of those sales to the the newer people picking up uh both gear as well as um shulker boxes we will definitely work

On getting shulker boxes restocked that’s amazing oh wait oh oh wait wait wait this is new this is new uh general good store ooh this is a fancy build okay general good store oh hello oh everyone’s here goodness whoa place payment in barrel below one box six six diamond blocks

Oh oh oh altos altos oh and theme well that’s it and themed goodness alto’s end themed mystery boxes each mystery box contains six diamond blocks my goodness each mystery box costs six diamond blocks and is valued over the price that you pay please be fair and choose a box at random without

Peaking payment is to your right well we’re gonna buy that ooh someone’s there’s an electro 20 oh they play i hate these invisible item frames oh guys please no okay wow okay very cool let’s buy uh one of those let’s definitely do that let’s see what we get oh

Wait oh hang on give me that there it is okay uh six diamond blocks there you are and i guess i’ll get this one have a please thank you wow wow holy cow this is this is awesome hey not too shabby i would say so not too shabby at a light trap

How much that so that’s what’s nine times six goodness sakes i can’t do that kind of math wait 54. 54 diamonds that’s awesome that’s super cool okay so i think we are done here okay yeah i think we are done here for now so let’s go ahead and get back to the base

This place just looks so good at night i love the way all the lights look with the with the shader pack i have on so nice this is a bit dark i might do something to incorporate some lights in that later on but for now i’m super

Happy with the way that that looks now i i do have to apologize hang on let me sleep real quick yeah i do need to apologize i have been really putting off this episode i’ve been kind of in a funk lately and just have not been uh putting the time to work on

This episode like i need to be yeah that’s what we’re gonna need i do need to apologize because i i’ve been having a really hard time getting this episode out um i’ve i’ve actually recorded most of this quite a while ago i think it’s been more than a week now since i recorded

Uh the time lapse for that and most of the rest of this episode i’ve just been having such a hard time um i don’t know if it’s if it’s a focus thing or if it’s an interest thing but it is what it is

Um and i’ve had a hard time with it so i hope you guys can forgive the delay in this episode right now i’m trying to push this to get this episode released so i am going to be out of this pretty much right here so just ended up being a little bit

Shorter of an episode but hopefully it still works out all right and we’ll get back to hopefully a normal schedule here in a little bit but before i end the episode whoop that’s fine i wanted to come down here anyway i did want to start on a sort of uh future

Future long project like a long long project so i this area that we’re at here i need uh any more rockets i absolutely love the area that we are in over here and i want to do a lot more with the surrounding area itself other than just

Um using it for resources and such this was another addition we have a road did this over here get taken out no no it didn’t so there are now two there are now two roads going through my area here uh both of the uh road builders have given me permission to

Kind of decorate them how i want so that’s convenient so that’ll be a project for another day that we will work out at some point this one we might actually tear out because i don’t think the person that built this has been on in a long

Time so i might actually just tear this one out over here and just decorate this one here but we’ll see now uh as i said i i love the area that we have here um and i do want to do more with it sort of decoration wise and

And story wise like the story of this area that we’re building here and i’m going to be kind of a sneak peek at what we’re going to do that’s going to be a very very very long project um but i think it now is a good time to

Get started on that so the first thing that i want to do is i want to turn it into a dense forest so i think for a lot of that i’m going to do is kind of run around and plant a bunch of trees mostly oak but some birch as well i believe

But nothing of that no jungle trees no acacia trees no spruce trees no dark oaks just regular oaks regular birches and just kind of let them grow how they how they grow i’m not going to do any sort of catering with how they grow specifically i mean unless something looks really bizarre

And out of place but that’s going to be step number one step number two is to uh yeah let them grow and then some of them might be too close to to each other to actually grow themselves have to come around a bone meal sub x

Because i want it to be almost solid canopy like i really don’t want there to be much empty space so once i once i grow up the entire canopy and the entire thing is pretty much all filled in i will then go around and hopefully i can silk

Touch leaves does that work it does wonderful i’ll go in and at the top block of each tree put a sea lantern right put that leaf back on there and then that’s it now i was just nighttime so it might be a little bit until i can show it

But it’s it creates a glowing effect um in in the in the tree and basically i’m gonna do that throughout the entire forest over this whole area and i mean this the whole area here like all back through here all of this out here way over the woods

Here but i basically want it so that wherever you’re at on the base whichever direction you’re looking at you see just a complete solid horizon of glowing trees and then on top of that i’m also going to go down through and dig out random blocks in the ground put torches down

And green carpet on top of it to make the floor or the ground glow as well so we’ll have an entire glowing forest underneath our steampunk city here and it’s gonna look amazing i’ve done a little bit of testing with this um in a creative world i’m just seeing

How it looks and everything and seeing exactly how i wanted to set this all up and it looks incredible uh in fact actually let me give you guys a quick sneak peek of what that looks like in my uh testing world i want to i want to spoil too much of the

Rest of the layout for my base because i have a few builds planned out but i think i can show a little bit of it all right hang on okay yeah you can you can see the effect over there um that’s pretty much the only area that

I’ve done in this place and you can see the uh the carpets there to do the floor as well so basically it’s going to be that but over the entire forest covering the the whole area and it’s going to look really really good i’m super excited about it

But like i said it’s going to be an extremely long project even just that in creative took me longer than i would care to admit but i think in the end the effect that it gives is gonna be well worth the time it takes to complete it all right let’s

Hop back on the server and we will close out this episode for now all right back on the server here but for now that is going to do it for this episode here this is definitely going to end up oh boy oh there we go okay

This is definitely going to be quite a bit shorter than a normal episode but as i said i’ve had a hard time getting this getting through this episode here so i think if i just kind of wrap this episode up here and get moving on to some other things i want to do

With the channel and some you know some different projects with the video or with the um with the server here i think that’ll get me uh get me moving a bit more so yeah i think the best is just to end this one here and i hope

You guys did enjoy it i did put a lot of work into this episode um even though it’s taking me a very very long time to get it out i hope you guys enjoyed it anyway though but if you did oh there’s still a hole in here if you
