the horseable part is ready for recreational usage

(the alternate short course is so that you don't have to set up the track through Vrus, like it will be used at new years)

It's New Years time! Here is the first 40 seconds of the show I put together:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y2UGp_ZJLu4


Yep, it's a plugin with firework spawns synced up to music. We'll be using synctu.be for the music sync. What does this mean? It definitely might not be in sync for you guys during the actual live show. There are a few factors. Big one being the syncing of synctube, from my experimentation this might not actually be that bad. Another one is server tps, the firework lifespans are in server ticks optimized for 20tps (even with 10+ people all in Vrus I doubt we'll drop much..but we'll see. The server seemed to keep 19+ with 5 people loaded in different places as long as Desertopia isn't loaded). Lastly, I'll have to manually sync the music with the show so there's a bit of a human factor to the timing as well. What I'm getting at: don't blame me if it seems horribly out of sync. If it is that bad for you, mute the music and enjoy the show, it should still be enjoyable.

Some things to get maximum enjoyment. If you're on a garbage computer, expect some frame drops. There are a few parts where it isn't uncommon to hit 10k+ particles. I tested this on my terrible laptop and I think I only saw anything below 30fps for a few seconds at most. All of you guys need to make sure you stay on the platform facing forward for the entire show. It is optimized for that angle. Off the platform and you will not see everything as some of the show will be outside the firework render distance.

With all this in mind, I'll be uploading the full show to Youtube. This show is on my private VPS and with the music playing on my computer, so it will be perfectly synced up at 20tps.

The full show is 6 minutes long, here is the soundtrack:

site of the slime farm. obviously not very exciting right now, but a lot of the major work has already been completed or almost completed

1. caves (mostly lit) ~15h
2. preparations for water clearing machinery ~3h

the far wall you can see in the screenshots is the other end of the farm. the water being cleard out is roughly 66 x 24, the farm is 1x4 chunks

yes that's 4 beacons not two

- assume your (horizontal) fov is pi/2
- aspect ratio is 16:9, so vertical fov is 0.88
- now we have a triangle with adjacent edge length 7.5, angle 0.44, and we want to find the opposite edge length
- tan(theta) = opposite/adjacent
- opposite = adjacent * tan(theta) = 3.53
- vertical distance is 7.06km (8.94km with quake pro)
- you messed up badly

yqt did most of the slabbing, which was over 9000 slabs worth (closer to 10k actually). farm seems to be working, as evidenced by picture 2.

just for fun, i computed the volume i had to clear out for the farm: 95k blocks, or about 2.2% of a 256x256x64 perimeter

Syule's slime farm is much more impressive but I have a video so...
I made 1/3 of those efficient regular mob farms and it's already truly impressed me how good the spawns are. The spawns are so good I had to double up on the hoppers because the items can't be transported fast enough through just one which I was hoping wouldn't be a problem until it is expanded it to the full size. No server lag, unlike syule's monstrosity of a lag farm he has with the water. Not cheap either, at 1200 iron for this 1/3 since it's a piston farm but eh, hopefully iron will be worthless soon.

so i'm starting a new challenge, like the one hour diamond challenge.

this time it's wood. given that wood is that one item that no one ever has enough of and is fairly annoying to collect, i want to see who has the most efficient farm and mining style.

rules:

1. as short or as long a time as you want. but i would recommend at least 15 minutes or so to ensure the variance of your estimate is low

2. you should leave your farm as you entered it. so if your usual strategy is to chop down a bunch of trees and then replant, you need to count the replanting time. if you're doing it in a forest and don't usually replant, then you don't need to count replanting time. if you like to use tnt to blow up trees, better count the time you spent setting up the tnt. etc.

3. measure rates in items/minute for easy comparison

----

anyway i tested my old tree farm from like 2012 and got around 97 wood / minute. since i spent around 10-20% of the time climbing ladders, i feel like using an enderpearl elevator would probably increase efficiency by 5-10%. other than that, the design is pretty solid, although it's a very simple plant and harvest farm.

i have a switch in my mob factory which disables killing. i just realized this would be basically a 100% effective peaceful switch for the server if i afk an alt right next to where all the mobs accumulate.
