@@xisumavoid oh that's fair, but if you need to feed a hypothetical movable TNT duper, then you also need movable hoppers or chests or something funky with hopper minecarts? I know nothing about flying-machines, but if I were to do TNT block breaking in farms then I'd personally use the crafter.

Xisuma, it was an honor to welcome you on Zedcraft and watch you all enjoy our games ! And for such a good cause as well. If you told me a month ago that my silly game would make it into a Hermitcraft video... I might have made it look prettier 😂 !

That creeper game on Zed’s patreon server looked like so much fun.

Congrats and thank you to all of the hermits (and friends!) on the gamers outreach charity fundraising!

I feel the main issue with TNT is the fact that there is no fully automatic sand farm that isnt duping. If there was everyone would build a farm for sand and gunpowder than auto craft TNT.

My personal rule for TNT dupers is "only moving contraptions may dupe". As long as there's no option to have movable inventories/dispensers, I think it's OK to dupe, since there's no viable alternative. For a stationary thing however, there's no reason you couldn't provide it with the necessary TNT, even more so when having access to the crafter. Not allowing stationary dupers also forces you to optimize the blast chamber, unless you're willing to pay a TNT block to break a measly 2 or 3 blocks of course.

A perfectly reasonable stance to have. I'm lazy so I'm not gonna build a whole creeper farm and manually mine sand just to power my cobble generator's blast chamber, though. But the beauty of this game is there's literally infinite ways to play it

This weekend was crazy, so proud of the Hermitcraft community honestly. Yellow Team FTW

7:30 I don't think Mojang should add a TNT-duper-like block, now that we have the crafter what Mojang should add is a renewable and possibly automatable way of getting sand.

Just started watching X again as took a break for KZread (too much content!!). Great start to the season from everyone! Also you keep on hitting new heights with these builds mate, you've truly been evolving as a builder and its great to see. Cheers to a great rest of the season!

I’m watching this with my baby nephew as he didn’t want to nap. This is likely his first Minecraft experience. And he seems to enjoy it alright.

The Zedlympics games were all so good, but I think my favourite might've been the trident game that saw you all fighting your way to the top of a giant water tower. It looked manic in the best possible way.

Nice job winning the Hermit Olympics yesterday! I'm so proud of you lot and this wonderful community for coming together and raising so much for a great cause!

Really enjoyed watching you and the others compete in the Hermitlympics. I was blown away by the creativity of the mini games. Can't wait to see what the Hermits come up with for the gaming district this season.

Awww Salem was the name of my little IRL void kitty. Sadly she passed away last year (she was 19)... but I have her in my MC world too :)

I'd already watched Zed's live stream, and a couple other Hermits' perspectives, but you edited your video REALLY well to show the highlights from your view while keeping it interesting and not repetitive. Superb job!

the Zedolympics were a lot of fun! congratulations for the wonderful job you all did this weekend!

Those games are really inspiring! A reminder for myself that you don't need to over complicate everything or automate it, just keep your focus on the fun concept as you said.

To split the bone meal between the two hoppers evenly, you could just put a comparator off the double chest and have it lock the hoppers below until it's got a handful of bone meal in it. Not full, but even signal strength 1 should be a couple stacks which is enough to feed both hoppers at once easily.

For Salem: large pots in the floor with a carpet look like food dishes

Thanks for uploading! I was just looking for the next video to watch :D

The community and the hermits & friends did a lot of good this weekend. Awe inspiring to see. ❤

I wish Mojang would add a red stone block like the mechanical drill from the create mod. Then they could eliminate TNT duping and provide us with a solution for farms like this 9:02

@Lakosius

29 күн бұрын

The Quark Mod has something pretty simple to that : Iron Rods , when moved with a sticky piston , they can break blocks in front of them.

The rooted dirt farm is so cool! I appreciate that you explained the redstone. :)

9:55 If I had to guess, the location is just outside of loaded range of the fireworks factory or event area, causing some of the goats to unload, and new ones to spawn. I had a similar issue, in 1.17, with being just far enough underground for pillager squads to spawn and unload, I had hundreds of them by the time I went topside.

So glad you guys won x! I enjoyed seeing the little highlights of each of the minigames!

7:35 -- What Mojang should add is a block that deletes blocks, similar to the cactus for items. Pistons can push blocks into it in order to instantly mine them, but with zero drops. Most of the value of a block like that would be for this sort of use case, tree farm excess.

I 100% agree we need something like a "blasting block" that lets you make on command explosions. Sort of like a hybrid dispenser that creates an explosion in the direction it faces to destroy blocks, at the cost of needing to be filled with gunpowder. It'd be great for traps and excellent for farms.

With the New autocrafter, the TNT Duper in Farms would not be neccessary, IF there would be a way to farm Sand. Maybe with a serverwide Datapack, you could add a receipe for crafting sand from cobblestone and TNT: Like one TNT and 8 cobblestone would "blast" in the crafter/workbench into 8 sand. Then there would be a regular farm build, without any duping mechanics. That sand, and kreeper-farmed gunpowder could go into a crafter, that crafts the TNT for the Farm, needing TNT, and the Crafter system for creating sand. The cobblestone farm could also be just a regular one using a bit of the crafted TNT. Or maybe instead of "exploding" cobblestone into sand, maybe some other receipe, using gravel, and maybe a bucket of water, like sand is created by water in the ocean. IIRC you already use the receipes for coloring blocks, that do not need a "not colored" variation of the block. Hermitcraft is a Server with building, red stoning and foremost shenanigans and collabs. Why make such things as "getting sand" such a hassle. I can understand, that using duping systems is a not so liked system, but basically almost every basic building block can be farmed. Exept for one of the most basic blocks, that is needed for TNT, concrete and sandstone...

I believe the simple solution to TNT duping is game parity. Bring moveable tile entities to java & a renewable way to get sand (grinding gravel or something?)

Community really is key. Nearly a million dollars in a weekend?! GG!

Looks like X's business choices are very deep-rooted this season...

the ohhhh whyyy was so good lmao

Let’s hope that donor monument gets a big facelift before the end of the season. It should be made out of diamond blocks.

seeing you play in the hermitlympics was so dun! like the mix with your rooted dirt farm in the video

Mojang have indeed added a tnt duper with the auto crafter. While you can connect it to a creeper farm, you'll still have to feed it sand

Zedcraft invites Impulse, Tango and Skizz over every so often for OlympZITS. Check out the VODs on their (second) channels. The ones from a year ago where from another season of Zedcraft with different games. And a few months ago (just before the new hermitcraft season) some other hermits joined in for the OlympZITS.

Great to see Martyn in the thumbnail, and great video, of course!

I got so excited!! We have a Salem too!!

I love how readable was that tree farm. I'm bad at redstone and even i could understand that with just using basic Minecraft mechanics like push block limits

the nther clip with mumbo is so hilarious. The reactions are so honest and surprised

To make the farm more efficent you could add an addional rooted dirt farm on the other side making the tnt more effective and the farm twice as fast! I loved the design!

@9:56 that random screaming goat jumping off the mountain😆

Those games definitely look like it would make you better at Minecraft overall

Grian had too much faith lol!

Your rooted dirt farm seems perfect for skyblock variations.

I think the driving force for TNT duping is the lack of renewable sand. If there was a way to get sand then it would be easy to connect to a creeper farm with the autocrafter. I actually like what I saw with Ilmango's skyblock series where coral fans could be used to farm sand.

These mini games are SO unique I love it

The monolith might need some slight redesigning 😅

Would love a detail tutorial on that rooted dirt farm!

"Why are there so many goats up here?!" Answer: Cubfan135

Congrats on the win - those games look fun!

"a block that dupes tnt that you feed gunpowder" that's a crafter connected to a dispenser aint it?

Well done with the good medal!!!

15:15 Eyyyy, ladders!

The goats are most likely the result of chunk pruning. If you trim a chunk the entities are not culled and the game will respawn any mobs that spawn there with world creation. I've experienced this with a village that straddled the border of a chunk I trimmed several times resulting in a large population of nitwits.

9:59 I saw something similar happening with pigs in another server. I think there is something to do with how minecraft saves chunks, but I don't really know, it was something someone else said there.

I was at work when the Charity was live so missed it but did watch some of the vods. But it was awesome to watch the hermits! It is also awesome to see the possibility of a game district this season! It's been a while but correct me if I'm wrong S6 was the last season there was a game district

'Maybe Mojang can add a block that does the dupeing and we fill it with gunpowder' With peace and love this is essentially the crafter if we want to be legit about things , gatta feed it all the sand to tho ofc.

If there was an automatic way to get sand, like through piglin trading, you could set up an auto crafter for the tnt. Not sure if you could just add it to the loot table for piglin trades.

13:57 For some reason I always thought the death messages in these situations read “ was blown up by creeper ignited by .” Mojang has other priorities I guess.

Moyang kinda did add a tnt duper you have to feed with gunpowder (and sand): the auto crafter

skizz calling joel a stud 😭😭 such a softball dad thing to say i love it

That first game reminded me of Lily Drop from season 3(?)

A block that makes tnt but you have to feed it, it's called the crafter.

I suppose with the crafter, you can just load chests full of gunpowder and sand and have a "tnt duper"

I feel like Mojang should add alternatives for duping blocks such as TNT and gravity. I know some mods like Quark attempt at this, but it would need to be useful enough for players to switch away from exploits. Making Husks have the chance of dropping one block of sand, for example, won’t be enough.

I think Xisuma would do pretty well in MCC

Cool farm!✨️

loved the clips from the charity stream :] although ur dodging makes it a bit obvious ur not in mcc lol

the voice audio after the intro sounds great! does this mean the audio issue mystery has been solved?

A TNT duper that is fed with gunpowder is really missing the point I think, lol. It would make way more sense for them to just add a generalized block breaker, maybe one that you need to fill with proper tools.

They did add a tnt duplicater it's called the crafter you just need to feed it sand and gunpowder.

It may be a bit late but to deal with the hopper speed on the bonemeal silo wouldn't it be faster to have that entire system run on bone blocks instead only converting it to bone meal at each individual farm? that would make each hopper 9x more efficient. but would mean the silo might get to large to naturally be in a filled state.

It's surprisingly amusing to hear a Brit say _"y'all"_ xDDD

That monolith is cool, I donated anonymously, no need for recognition.

@xisumavoid You don't technically need to dupe TNT for stationary builds though... You can use an autocrafter to make the TNT granted it will be a guzzler of sand and gunpowder. I am also somewhat in favor of using TNT duping when required, but if and when autocrafter is introduced in stable vanilla, might try and switch. Cheers!

I've never heard Martyn so quiet xD

Technically there is a legit alternative to stationary TNT dupers, it's just dupers are easier and safer to set up than Wither Cages :P

You should name him Sir Postalots

1:24 wait I just noticed... the top of the tower on the top left, is that Skeletron's hand?

X, your audio was bad at the beginning. I know you're working on it. Still love all the videos you have been doing on HermitCraft! Keep it going mate.

You can up the rate of the bonecilo by crafting bone blocks and than crafting those back into bonemeal so you will have 9 bonemeal per tick
