So, here's a technical explanation for how the Beesful Mode Engine works: Certain statues, when activated with wire, spawn mobs. There mobs have a few special properties, like having their drops reduced by a factor of 20, but there is also a limit to how many mobs you can spawn from a given statue. For example, you can only spawn three of a given mob from a given statue. __These spawn limits, however, scale based on distance. __ 3 mobs in a 12.5 tile radius 6 mobs in a 37.5 tile radius 10 mobs - Anywhere in the world (Source: Terraria Wiki) By spawning mobs, and then moving them outside of that 37.5 tile radius, we can take advtange of that 10-mob spawn limit, rather than being stuck with only 3 mobs per-spawn. We can then use multiple statues, each with 10 mobs, to spawn a huge number of entites on-demand. Combined with bees (of which you can get ~90 with hives before the game stops you), this makes it fairly easy to fill up the mob cap- which, includes target dummies and NPC's, hence why your "Enemies Nearby" might vary if you build one of these machines for yourself. But... this isn't all that the Beesful Mode Engine can do. So, stay tuned for that. (subscribe to Ethyriel for more game-breaking content)
@@leemiles3995ig the game bugs out. It tries to spawn in an NPC but instead some enemy spawns/tries to spawn in. Me and my friend had similar thing with modded terraria
the way the " has arrived!" message works is that whenever a Town NPC tries to spawn, it spawns it and then grabs the latest spawned entity. When the Town NPC fails to spawn, it grabs a different enemy and uses its name.
12:22 it was at this moment that the cursed worm traveled back in time to season 2 and swore unending vengeance against the terraria Veterans for banishing him from this world, this will not be the last time we see him
given by the thumbnail and title i can tell this is gonna be 1. a banger episode 2. an amazing video 3. an episode where Ethyriel breaks the game for the 98 millionth time 4. chaos
bro I read the word iterations and was like "oh rainworld" and then you ACTAULY made it for rainworld lmaooo There's a rainworld reference everywhere you don't expect on to be.
The random mobs arriving as npcs reminds me of when a modded boss bar bugs out and just shows the health of the most random thing ever, like just a boss bar showing Edmund the Merchant
16:06 I remember Pedguin's 'invasion playtbrough' from a few years ago where he played with 30x spawn rates, and how he would get a similar message but for hornets when trying to summon Golem or Plantera or something with a the mob cap full, which consistently gave that message without actually spawning the boss.
What a great episode where the mob cap is broken once again. Just to note, the mob cap can also be easily reached by using blood moon + penguin statue on timer, since the statue doesn't read corrupt and bloody penguins
I used bees in a multiplayer playthrough recently so I could build our plantera/golem arena in peace and I was greeted with many many strange enemies arriving, I even had one that just said "Has Arrived" no enemy or other text, very funny
I Never Even used to watch terraria videos, like I played the game a ton and still do, but I was never interested in videos of it. But ever since finding the terraria veterans series I started watching more and more, and these videos have gotten me through some rough times. Thank you veterans!
I get the feeling that the "____ Has arrived" with the mobs is because it tried to spawn a Town NPC but it got confused when a regular enemy spawned, so it thought that was the townie instead. all because of Beesful Mode.
also, the reason two parts of the wall of flesh spawned and not just one is probably because the guide himself died, freeing up a second slot in the same split second that the boss spawned.
My guess for how the spawn messages were occurring at the end would be that because the part of the mob cap allocated for enemies was fully taken up, the game was trying to spawn enemies and put them in the part of the mob list reserved for NPCs. This resulted in the game's code executing at least enough to print that message, since the code may not check whether or not the entity being spawned is an NPC until after that message, if it checks at all. It probably relies on the idea that the number of enemies active at any point in time should never get high enough to risk this problem in the first place, so no one thought to account for it.
actually if you reach the mob count, it says things like that when an npc tries to spawn. I encountered this with the old duck statue method before. It said things like demon eye has arrived and chaos elemental has arrived.
Skeletron Prime from Season 2 must've hit hive in time to spawn a pile of bees or something, getting the Destroyer stuck on one segment. From there, it's glitched until a reset occurs, whether it be dying, or turning day.
Hey Gromek! The in next terraria veterans series you can take apart the dungeon, turn it into walls, and then throw into shimmer so you can put it behind people in the underground for dungeon guardian to spawn

The Terraria breaking cycle: Step 1. We discover some ridiculous, overpowered exploit and break the game Step 2. It gets popular and becomes a meme in the community Step 3. The devs patch it up for being too op and unfair Step 4. A new exploit is discovered Step 5. *we break the game again*

I had those monster had arrive messages in my tmodloader 1.4.3 world, where one of the mods I created allows you to change global monster spawns from nothing to max. The messages appeared while the spawns were max and the cap was full.
First of all, leaving the game running to do school stuff is precisely why I have 1k+ hours in Terraria Second, I believe it was Playrime playingmaster mode for the worthy with 10x spawns that found that "black slime has arrived" mechanic and he figured that it was the game's way of spawning one more enemy when entities are soft capped
so i scrolled through the comments and didnt see anybody else explain the (insert mob here) has arrived but thats a bug that happens when theres too many mobs and a npc is trying to spawn but a mob spawns instead. this can happen a lot in modded if you have stuff that increases spawnrates
??? has arrived is a thing i've seen before, either in a playthrough i've done or a wand of sparking video i have no idea how the glitch happens, i just know it's real
I know I late to the episode, but still, Another day, another game breaking session and trolling, some amazing Buildings (Thanks Monica), The HOUSE, and some good times.
Ive seen the "___ has arrived!" message when cranking spawn rates excessively in modded Terraria. I couldnt tell you what causes it unless its something to do with a random ememy taking priority over a planned spawn slot for an npc. Either way, funky bug.
I did this separately with the flares and I killed a plantera completely without the ability to defend itself xd, too funny like the video as well ! PD: Mannequin ALSO Works

At least 1 more

Ethyriel is, without a doubt, the final boss of this playthrough.

Black Slime has arrived.
Black Slime has arrived.
I wonder if the mobs that get announced like "black slime has arrived" actually have npc properties or if they're just,, regular mobs
Those messages are from signs like the troll face. You can change the text color with special characters. So there is no npc/mob involved.
actually if you reach the mob count, it says things like that when an npc tries to spawn. I encountered this with the old duck statue method before. It said things like demon eye has arrived and chaos elemental has arrived.
That's why ethyriel says:
Someone put up announcement box, but where?
@@bossriy3555 Aw, kind of a shame but good to know! Thank you! :D
@@bossriy3555 It definitely wasn't an announcement box. It was only happening when one of their NPCs were dead, and the mob cap was practically full.

13:47 "I have 14.7 days of time in last 14 days"
maybe
thats cuz you had multiple terraria's open at once?
"(mob) has arrived" happens at mob cap. While I was running the 300x spawns mod it would happen while I was hanging around my base
Wow...that was exactly what I needed.
