Hermitcraft S10#5: Dispensing Deals & Frog Paths

yeah I got to get better at my time

spent what is

yours see I'm not a very entertaining

YouTuber gem so I have to put more work

into to make my episodes

better what do you mean what's your time

played I at 11 days 11 days is any of

that AFK not really

no Etho I got four episodes out do you

ever Lo yeah what yeah that's worse that

is worse that you only have four

episodes out can you get off the server

and do some editing my

God yeah now I will say though all my

episodes have been like 40 50 minutes I

got to get back to the 20 minutes been

huge I I got to get back to the 20s

again I haven't even watched your most

recent one cuz I looked at how long was

I was like I just can't I know it's a

problem that

long yeah so hello everybody and welcome

back to another episode of

hermitcraft oh ouch aha yeah so I'm

still having a little trouble finding my

sweet spot you know that perfect balance

between how much I play on the server

and and like when I start making my

video cuz uh usually I like to play on

the server a bit before I start putting

the video together just so it has some

direction to it and I've been finding

because like so much of stuff is

happening on the server but when I start

putting my video together like 20 more

things happen on the server as I as I

put it together and then it's like oh I

got so much to include and I don't want

to leave anything out but you know I've

also been spending a lot of time hanging

out with the Hermits goofing around

having a good time which has been great

uh but uh there's something else as

well this season of hermitcraft I

actually went into it with a plan

believe it or not and I've been I've

been working on this plan now as many of

you know I don't have the best track

record with with big projects I got a

massive project I want to do this season

so in order to make this happen I

realize I need to set a strong

foundation for the season early on here

so I'm doing like a lot of resource

Gathering early on here Farm building

infrastructure building I want to get

our storage worked out and uh you know a

lot of these like timec consuming kind

of difficult grindy projects I'm trying

to get done early on the season I want

to try to get our Base building done

early so that later in a couple months

or so when we transition to this big

project it's going to go smoothly and

there's a better chance I'll actually

get it done now I'm also trying to be

very careful not to leave too many Loose

Ends behind as we go through the season

here so you remember that big storage

mess we had here I got that clean up it

was a it was a big pain organizing it

and normally that's something I would

probably put off and uh you know those

loose ends they start to pile up and

then eventually I got to deal with them

and I don't want that to happen this

season so I I organized it I got it all

put away here and I I know this room

looks horrible with all these Sher boxes

but these aren't that bad actually these

are mostly organized like this is not

like random stuff for the most part this

is like I went and I got like 20

Shockers of sand that I turned to Glass

so that we could sell it at our shop I

made a bunch of TNT I mined up a bunch

of Terra Cotta like six things of Terra

Cotta here just doing resource Gathering

you know I I also went to like the end f

a Wither there just to get some endstone

even though I don't need it now we'll

need it for our massive project

eventually and it's just kind of nice to

get that in our inventory in our Ender

Chest in case we ever do need endstone

for some reason of course one of my

early season goals here is to get our

storage room filled up so we can get the

maximum Effectiveness out of our shocker

loaders but that requires an incredible

amount of resources a lot of crafting a

lot of organizing to get that done and

we're probably at like 20% now after I

spent a bunch of time on it and it it's

getting there but we got a long ways to

go with it all right everybody now check

this out this is so cool this is an

example of setting up infrastructure

that's going to benefit us for the rest

of the season here as long as we're in

this world every time I use this it's

going to make me

happy instead of keeping our Rockets or

our food or other consumables in a chest

where we have to like fumble around

manually looking for them maybe we run

out I got to figure out where the rest

of them are and that kind of thing and

uh you know craft them and all that

stuff we're going to have these quick

dispensing stations I did something like

this in season 7 of hermit craft and I

absolutely loved it where you just hold

right click on this

comparator the longer you hold down

right click the more Rockets you'll get

for example every time we click it we're

going to get eight when it's fully

filled up um and that way you can

control how many you get depending on

how many you need and it it's just

really nice right and now that we have

the the autoc crafter we can actually

make it even better uh it's really

simple as well is this an observer

detecting the comparator goes up to two

drops ERS and then up to two more

droppers and you just keep repeating

that pattern uh for however many

droppers you want the more you have the

faster they'll dispense them and then we

got a bunch of Hoppers going into those

droppers to Auto refill them from a big

storage unit like a chest and then we

got a autoc crafter hooked up to that

chest for the Rockets so we just have to

get it going here and look at this so

it's going to take our our sugar cane

craft that into paper that goes into

here and then we have one for gunpowder

and then that goes combines together in

this one makes our Rockets they go down

into our our dispensing station down

there uh

oh

problem oh I guess this can fill up

that's never happened before all right I

got to make some adjustments uh okay

let's shut it down for now okay I made a

little adjustment here so now the wire

goes up above here so it doesn't

interact with this crafter but instead

it checks if this runs out of paper and

then it tells this crafter to make more

uh we're going to add a couple more here

I want one for ender pearls for sure

maybe one for bone meal maybe one for

TNT I we we'll figure out the rest of

them but let's go get our ender pearls

oh look at this we just hopped into the

end here and we're getting greeted by a

shower of

XP uhhuh okay I haven't been to this uh

Enderman Farm uh just yet every season

of hermitcraft jevin makes an Enderman

Farm like within the first two weeks

and this season to change things up uh I

think you did in the first week all

right this is a good sign when you can't

pick up the XP fast enough in an

Enderman farm that means it's a good

Enderman Farm look at

this uh-huh uh-huh that's a good sign

they refill pretty quickly here looking

good all right so we're going to fill up

I think nine chalkers of Ender Pearls

and we got it loaded up so let's give it

a

try that should give us 16 yeah perfect

woohoo

we got ender pearls again free yes

please thank you all right everybody

well check it out here we are at the

shopping district and that's the big

thing that's been happening this week on

hermitcraft everybody's getting their

shops down in the new shopping district

we got Carell's uh candle shop there we

got Ren's Beacon shop I think XB made a

grocery store here and he uh is

anxiously waiting for people to come

by

uh we got mumbo's item frame shop and

there's like skizzle wood shop Joel just

made

a uh like glow squid thing and you know

there's big shops there's there's little

shops there's all kind of shops all over

the place little pop-up shops happening

and as many of you know I have well I

don't not really I don't have a shopping

addiction uh I I can control myself um

no put those away put those

away it's temp though but this season of

hermitcraft I am vowing you know I I am

going to control myself I'm not going to

just do impulse buies all the time I'm

going to actually try and make my

diamonds last and spread them out

throughout the whole season 400 diamonds

lifetime supply but you can never

deplete my resources you've got to

always leave at least a few shulkers

behind yes yes that I'll make sure of

that but that's uh that's that's like

all my diamonds oh my goodness I'm

broke

45 diamond blocks get your shops up at

45 diamond blocks yeah that that's about

right I'm rounding up here too just just

Yayo

this G

35 85

85 it does

lot I don't know it does not from this

angle it's a three it it does not and

it's also perfect it's also a three the

only angle that's an eight is like dead

on and barely don't steal Dylan now

you've already raided him what okay he's

low on health I'm getting

off why are you killing him how did that

even happen I don't know I don't know

you opened the box and then he got

squished and sad for science we got to

try it

again

huh I don't know what that

was I think you might have smacked him

with your sword no no he he got squished

there here happening

again who oh he almost died okay okay

okay why didn't you like it happen again

and you didn't get off I didn't realize

he was taking a villion damage every

time he took a

hit dude I was half a heart there that

was a close call three two one oh that's

a lot of

TNT so cool oh that is so good that is

so good we're back at base again here I

forgot to show you all the map that's

right we did another snapshot in time

I'm trying to do this every month so we

can see how the area changes over time

and and a month ago this is how our our

area looked remember we were missing the

corner on our house oh Cleo just

died and I got that filled in now and

most of the stuff I've been doing is

underground though recently so there's

not a whole lot there but you can see uh

Tango's foundation for his Factory

appeared we got pearls area got massive

updates with the pathing and her house

is like two three times larger on the

map here big big Improvement there uh

skizzle pyramid showed up and then we

also got uh Cub he got his firework

Factory going now I got to say I really

do like this location we settled down in

at first I just picked the spot to be

close to like Tango and Pearl and other

Hermits here but the more time I spend

here the more I realize just how good of

like a geographical location is how many

good things it has going for it we got

the jungle of course which I love uh but

it's also got the double cave spawner

down below it's got cold biomes nearby

like there is uh mountains near here so

if we need snow

or if we want to set up an ice Farm

we're going to be able to do that nearby

there's goats up there and a bunch of

different animals because there's so

many different biomes here we also have

the height variation going on for us so

this is like a high spot it allows us to

make some more interesting like build

stuff terraforming in the future

hopefully uh but we also have low spots

for like our creeper Farm to get better

rates down below here we have the water

for making a squid Farm the only body of

water near us as well so we get

incredible spawn rates down there and

look at this I also realized just

randomly we have a little sliver of

planes uh just over here this little

section and then it turns to like water

the river there that turns to Forest up

there and jungle this way Birch Forest

that way so this is a tiny little spot

but it's perfect for what we got going

on down below here uh this allows us to

do something cool without having to

leave our base did you wonder what was

behind the door here ah huh huh what

could it be what could it be it's

another

door uh yeah so just over this way

towards the the plains

biome uh what do we have what do we have

everybody a bunch of doors

and we're able to make a flower farm

here so Plaines is perfect cuz you get

the the dandelion here let's turn it

down real quick here you get your

poppies you get your blue flowers you

get the gray flowers o daisies and the

azeret blits so it's one of the best uh

Flower Farm

locations and now we got it right by our

base so that's cool so I set one of

these up um this is also

good for farming a bunch of other things

in the game yeah so if we swap out the

grass block above the bone meal

dispenser here with nyum we can use it

to grow the nether plants as well and

this is an 8x7 in dimension the grass

area here one of these sides has has

grass next to the Pistons and one is uh

empty so on that side you put the other

nyum and then you just start it up we

get the mushrooms and all the nether

plants and stuff making a flower farm

like this is super simple as well you

just have an observer detecting when the

grass moves above here and then you uh

send power to the left and the right of

that one goes to the dispenser and then

you run the the power up to both sides

of the Pistons they're so simple to make

I actually ended up making five

different ones so we got the one at our

base we got got one in a swamp and then

there's this flower Forest by greens

here uh let's see if I can remember the

location it's not well well marked or

anything oh there it is right there so

we got two of them down here this is for

the

Tulips there's any bone meal left yeah

so we got red and orange tulips

here and then this one gets us the White

and the pink

tulips uhhuh and then we got an elium uh

flower farm down here as well but

anyways I'm in the mood to do a little

bit of building everybody so let's get

to it here so I think it was back

episode 2 or something I marked out this

path to go to Tango's place and I didn't

have the resources back then I haven't

had the time since to get it

done but I think we can do it today if

we if we do it quickly uhhuh so I think

this tunnel for sure needs to get bigger

so we'll get that going uh but you see I

kind of leveled it out

here we'll get a nice windy path around

the Bay

Area all right might want to go a little

bit bigger than this I'll think about it

for a second but let's uh let's check

this out so I got some stuff together

yeah over here so I'm thinking the way

we're going to do the

path is we're going to use packed mud as

our

primary so down the middle I'll just run

the the packed mud I think in the very

center of the packed mud like the

highest traffic area on the path we're

going to use the brown mushrooms it's a

smooth Block matches well and it'll be

like uh the area that people walk the

most you know and then on the

outside think anyone's going to

sleep I'm one of the main sleepers on

the server so if I ever don't sleep I

always

worry cuz people get into the routine of

not sleeping when I when I'm around

right and then it's like oh man when I

need it nobody's got my back I think

we're going to do rooted dirt on the

sides of that next to the pack probably

and then even further that the area

where you walk and the grass kind of

dies will do course dirts uh-huh and

then I also prepared some bricks and

some Granite which I think we're going

to use as a retaining

wall uh going along along here now you

got to be careful with bricks I find if

you use too many bricks it looks really

bad but if you just have a few I think

we'll just go too high

maybe we'll try that out we'll mix in

some granite in places maybe some

terracotta get some plants in front of

that I think it's going to look pretty

good I am going to get rid of this

tree and maybe Tango wheat cuz this is

like where I want the path to go right

yeah he won't mind he's on

vacation all right I don't think it's

quite wide enough here to do what I want

either so we're probably going to have

to expand out a bit and maybe take some

of the cliff away too just to make it a

bit nicer usually when I do paths I find

it works best if I don't try to mix in

all the blocks to begin with I I just

put down on the main path material first

and that helps me gauge like when I add

the other stuff how it looks with that

like how it's developing this also

allows us to get the shape a little bit

more refined without being distracted by

the other blocks as well let me give you

a little update here so we made the

tunnel a little bit bigger in here I

think this feels a lot better now I've

been working on the shape of the path

and I'm pretty happy with it now I think

it's a good width a good good bend to it

you know a little bit of character it's

not perfectly straight or anything and

I've been messing with the wall I think

maybe I put a little too much granite

and stuff in there but uh the other

thing is it just looks a little strange

right why is that well I think it's a

little too little too perfect we're

going to try mix in some stairs some

slaps some fences and also I want to do

a little thing where like every second

block we have a little Jag in it you

know like that and sometimes we might go

down as well so we're going

to actually how do we do it I think we

got to go like here instead if we want

to go down so we're trying to transition

it from like 2 and 1/2 blocks down to 1

and 1/2 sometimes and just like mix it

up a bit uhhuh all right maybe we go

down here and then that's fine well it

looks a little strange let's get a stair

in there sure we can use some walls as

well to give it a little bit of

irregularity between uh the corners you

know just in a few places you don't have

to do it everywhere okay I'm not really

sure what I'm doing here but we we'll

figure it out uh just try stuff you know

see what it looks

like it's probably fine right now I

think we look for any areas that have a

high cluster of the packed mud and we

try to get the rooted dirt to go into

that

maybe maybe as an idea oh Snappers all

right everybody well we probably spent

about 2 hours working on the pathing

here and it's in a much better place now

I do need like another 2 3 hours at

least to finish it though we did make it

come out uh in front of our base here

though which is nice we kind of got an

idea of how it's going to go now um so

this is kind of what I would call level

one pathing in front of our house where

you just focus on getting the the shape

the width of it the position all figured

out um so I think that's fine but then

over here we went more into the level

two pathing where you actually start

doing texturing and adding little

details to it and I think this looks way

better over here this actually feels

pretty good to me uh so I went for more

of a rough like overgrown look to it

because it is a mountain passage as well

so you got to think there's probably not

going to be a lot of people coming

through here especially with Tango on

vacation you know he's is pretty much

just me right

now uh trampling down the path here uh

but yeah this is this is good we added

in some some brick structures broken

down fences throughout in a few places

got one by Tango there I do like how

this looks with the wheat on both sides

actually so I'm going to leave this you

know Tango can change it if he wants but

uh yeah I kind of like that and then and

uh what else um the thing that is

missing we we do have hidden lighting by

the way as well but the thing it's

missing to like really complete this to

make it feel a lot better is some unique

structures to it so this is all kind of

like background decorative stuff right

but in order to really sell the scene

make it feel better you need stuff for

your eyes to focus on so for example we

have this tree that was here and I got

thinking you know maybe I make like a US

shape out of the Hill here put some

benches like a rest stop kind of thing

and then tear down this tree build an

actual nice looking custom tree over top

the benches I think that would be really

good for this area you could add things

like uh chain fences or bamboo fences

along the path here um it would really

help if we had some more interesting

terrain like Boulders and you know

rougher stuff you know uh would be cool

maybe some pathing down below here as

well um wooden structures to support uh

our cave maybe another custom Tree in

this flower bed thing I just threw some

berries in there for now you know stuff

like that really helps to finish things

off and make it feel better but that's

going to have to wait till another

episode because we got to go check out

the shopping district everybody oh we

stole some uh Stone actually very good

and I'm guessing no glass

sold uh yeah looking looking about the

same as I left it last time glass you

know it's a it's one of those

Commodities that's going to really take

take off soon I'm sure mhm let's see if

Joe sold any of his oh my goodness he

actually sold some that's so

unfair

what how did he sell some okay we sold

some of the yellow that's good uh one

stack of the green and oh okay purple's

the big seller for some reason yeah hi

are you having a hard time getting in i'

I've constructed a wall there's no way
