      i'm aware this is a joke however ima explain them anyways.
      the comparitor either checks if the redstone going into the side is stronger than the one going into the back (compare)
      or it subtracts the redstone going into the side from the redstone going into the back (subtract)

      The redstone dust have a power loss within the distance (from 15 to 0, which means that redstone can go to 15 blocks before needing a repeater)
      When you have power going inside of a comparator, it just gives the actual power as output (so if there is a power of 13 in, it will give a power of 13 out : input = output)
      But when you have power going on the side of the comparator, then the comparator will check if that power is stronger (closer to 15) than the actual input. so, for example, if you have a power of 14 going on the side of the comparator and a power of 13 as input, the comparator will send a power of 0 as output, because the side power is greater than the ingoing power.
      And, with the same logic, if the power on the side is less than the input, then it just gives the same output as input (remember ? input = output !)
      The last function that a comparator has is the "subtract" mode (when you click on it and it has a torch that lits up)
      it's very easy to understand : the input power (in our example it was 13) is subtracted by the power on the side (in our example it was 14)
      as 13-14 = -1, it will just give a power of 0. if now you have 15 as input and 10 on the side and the comparator on subtract mode, then it will give a power of 5, because 15-10 = 5. That means our redstone signal going out of that comparator will be able to go to 5 blocks before needing a repeater.
      I detailed a lot so I hope you will be able to understand this much more than before, have a good day :D !

      Yooooooo I love this idea. Or if you could have a remote activation for the cannon (with preprogrammed coordinates) it could be like an air strike. If you built a whole wireless red stone transmitter you could build a military outpost or a aircraft carrier you could wirelessly set coordinates from. Extra points if it’s connected to a Morse code system on the ship with a single note block that beeps whenever you touch it. The add skulk shreakers on the ship to act like a raid horn there’s so many possibilities
      If you preprogram a spot in the machine itself the wireless system could transmit translations of the original coordinates by adjusting the location by a scale of the lecterns and any direction. I understand tnt doesn’t apply force linearly, or at least I think, so this wouldn’t be precise but it would be really fun to set the original target to a base and have a remote controller in an outpost by the base. You could send simple messages to the main cannon to slightly change the location of the strike as you watch it live from close to the target

    You need to hook the input to a hardcoded calculator which takes binary coordinates and automatically outputs the amount of tnt to the dupers.
    Then use some weird mechanics to locate players via redstone and convert the data to binary, reduce delay and you have a full-auto-auto-aim ballistic projectile launcher.

    The bit about the powdered snow just unlocked the whole design for me. I was in awe as to how you could possibly calculate so perfectly the insane speeds and upwards angle to get a parabolic curve where the tnt comes essentially straight down on the target. With the powdered snow quirk it's as simple as just setting the tnts position offset via its velocity since it will stop moving predictably. Brilliant!

Once all the batches are loaded you start setting off the main propellant TNT to launch all the batched together.

Sand stacking and midair sand stacking all came to fruition back then. I remember writing a python script at one point to calculate exactly where the TNT would be based on the position/quantity of the propellant. flash forward about a year and a concept for one-shotting multiple base walls at once happened. good times.

Logically that would allow you to have just one machine that can make infinite perimeters anywhere in the world if you increased the payload to be strong enough to reach bedrock. I definitely think it would be worth it in general just cause of how much harder perimeters are in 1.18+ although I know that would require almost entirely reworking the targeting counters cause you can't automatically interact with lecterns

      @JonnyLucca01 Рік тому

      Maybe if you put a portal at the chunk borders where the tnt exploded it might be possible to teleport the tnt right before it explodes. That'd trigger the portal loading for 15 seconds on the netherside which could be used to load the area. Which (in case it works) opens up the question if the tnt keeps it velocity on the netherside and travels even further or if it just destroys the portal and maybe even stops the 15 second chunkloading and immediatly unloads the area again. I'm currently taking a break from Minecraft, but these questions might get me back into it. Maybe somebody else has time to test this
      Edit: Not possible, asked on the tnt archives server about this. Answer: The tnt only fetches block data from the memory, therefore nothing else than this explosions effect on blocks is getting processed. So no portals, no entities, nothing, not even the tnt effect on the items from previous explosions or something.

  • @connor5268
    @connor5268 Рік тому +1

    My question is, assuming the server is running carpet mod, in a multi-player context, what counter-measures could be taken to effectively render an orbital strike incapable? What challenge can you make out of trying to survive an orbital strike? Assuming that you as a player have a script to log your exact location and player data when you log out, and knowing that you will log back in to an expected orbital strike, what could save your soul?
    I'd assume that one of the obvious solutions is to build a chunk-loader before you log out, which entirely solves the problem of logging in only to load primed TnT. A small obsidian shack entombing a chunk loader can endure weather harsher than any combination of Floridan Hurricanes, Californian Wildfires, and Australian Engineering.
    Additionally or alternatively, run a script to log in and log out as quickly as possible, whereby player login invulnerability is taken advantage of, the TnT explodes or begins to explode to the Chunk having been loaded for approximately 10 seconds, and then the player finally logs back in, possibly repetitively logging in and out to account for a long fall due to a stab-charge having destroyed all the blocks beneath a player.
    If that is the case, (to say that chunk-loading and login scripts successfully nullify an orbital strike as a threat) let's assume that there is a 10-second delay between when we log in and when we can log out, and assume an oldschool Minecraft faction mod, where Obsidian has an effective durability of 3, where block durability is defined as the number of instances where it can withstand an explosion before being destroyed, (this durability being measurable via right clicking with a potato created by a command block), and additionally, that the Obsidian inside of the orbital strike cannon is not subject to change--or alternatively, assume that crying obsidian is unmodified, and that we (the defending player/faction) do not have access to crying obsidian.
    At what distance is a sky base effectively out of the range?
    Could you create a series of chunk-sized pillars in lazy chunks surrounding a player (or chunk-loading mechanism) that have a constant use of TnT-mechanisms that explode so as to change the direction of any TnT that would otherwise be sent through it?
    Could you utilize powdered snow, 1-tick sand piston movement, or anvils in some form as a defense mechanism?
    If if truly can hit any coordinates in a Minecraft world, could you demonstrate how it is able to render a sub-bedrock bunker base null?
    Could you facetank explosions for an extended period of time? Using a Shulkerbox mod by Xisumavoid, ua-cam.com/video/-BY0baj8UOo/v-deo.html, we can use the refill property to replenish Shields or Totems of Undying, and then survive for at least another 0.5 seconds for each item we can store in our inventory (and use an adjacent ender chest as additional storage).
    How about we assume that a script is running so that an orbital strike cannon knows our location, and as time efficiently as possible, an automatically will send a strike to our exact location as often as possible, that we spawn in (500000, 500000), and that we exist on a superflat world where structures can generate. Now, build an additional strike cannon for each player that has access to a server, run the script for each player, and create a challenge of trying to dismantle a set of orbital strike cannons in a multiplayer setting. Assuming that having a player entity enter the nether causes them to instantly die, (as well as many other changes), how would you go about the challenge of defending against Armageddon, establishing resources within a superflat world with no access to the Nether Dimension, and then dismantle a set of orbital strike cannons that may as well have converged into it's own death star?
    In this superflat, It would be very interesting to try and interact with the nether under the presumption that the player cannot enter it, but that we can use a seed and coordinates to understand what is on the other side, and then attempt to bring over resources from the nether to the overworld, or vise versa.
    Alternatively to the hell that I just described, what about trying to improve or create a variant of the Orbital Strike cannon that can use a payload or charging mechanism other than duped TnT? What about using the spawning of a Wither? Blue Wither Skulls? Regular Wither Skulls? Respawn Anchors/Beds? Charged Creepers? The thought of an orbital strike cannon that could destroy obsidian is horrifying beyond comparison, and could solve the obsidian chunk loading bunker as a problem to the effective capacity of an orbital strike cannon as an impossible exertion of a god's will on earth.
    ~Just some thoughts~

    Hey cubic, since u posted the first video talking about this crazy machine i've been wandering if it may be possible to make perimeters with this by just inserting two coordinates and letting the machinery to decodificate them and destroy everything in between using those crazy holes that it makes with TNT. It would be kind of revolutionary to have a single machine that can make an unlimited amount of perimeters almost effortlessly so technical players don't have to spend most of their time just mining or building giant quarries which since 1.18 are a lot harder to build.

    Probably in advance, having a set of dolphins, at a safe distance away, could continuously circulate the items to keep them from despawning while hopper minecarts over 4 hoppers each would collect the items, and load them into shulker boxes, maybe on the nether side to reduce the client side lag and having them moved to the lazy chunks to make sure they're collected before they despawn, if their 5 minutes is paused while inside those chunks.

    With the knowledge presented at the end it should be possible to solve the offset issue in 14:30 by simply giving the (in the picture) bottom and left tnt momentum in the last tick before exploding so it moves forward in the lazy chunk, aligns itself against a block and explodes in this exact tick because it is still processed. I guess that my logic is some sort of flawed because the solution seems too simple and I'm not at all in the subject, therefore I'd love to get corrected.
