So as promised on the live stream this morning i am on snapshot 21.16a and i was able during the time off stream to isolate an entire giant vein of iron ore if you’re very confused this is a new feature in 1.17 that was just released in this snapshot And i’ll go through it again on the live stream tonight because there’s just so much to unpack with this this entire vein is actually connected and yes this is an iron ore vein um this also applies to copper ore and that’s it you’re only gonna find giant ore veins of iron Or copper and in my limited time of exploring this is relatively common it’s probably just as common as a mine shaft i’d say so what i did off stream is i wrote a program that was able to count all of the adjacent iron ores right here And the result is 14 hundred and thirty nine there are fourteen thousand five hundred and thirty nine iron ores in this single giant vein so here it is just processing through everything and the fill total is on the right side and if i follow the snake through here it will count up to Fourteen thousand about a quarter of the way through there’s even more i’m already at four and a half thousand there’s the view from down here it’s simply mirroring the vein from underneath it’s hidden quite well but it’s there so there are implications for this now i’m Not going to talk about them in great detail you already know that you can use fortune to mine them so it’s already with a multiplier of 2.2 you’ve got 33 000 iron ores right there there are people who are going to say i’m just going to make iron ore farms using iron golems Perfect it’s just interesting to know that the vein is actually here there’s a giant ore vein right here you just have to mine this and if you continue mining these blocks you’ll go on a wild hunt of iron it’s right here there’s a giant or vein of iron it may Not look like it but this is what it will uncover it might be a little overwhelming at first if you see this and you’re wondering why did moyang do this but after some thought i don’t mind it it’s just kind of weird knowing that you can find 15 000 iron ores Just down there they’re all connected that’s all that’s all it means i’m gonna try and find some copper all ones tonight on stream on twitch.tv phoenix sc live thank you so much for watching leave a like subscribe for more creative content and news updates good to know that this exists now take care You Video Information
