Hey Etho, I'm the author of Psi (and also Botania, if that's relevant), just thought I'd chime in with a few tips. Major one is to read the entire tutorial off-camera, even if you have to do a cut. When you skimp out, you miss on nuances that might come to bite you later. You can (and I do recommend you do) check out tutorials you've completed already by scrolling all the way to the bottom of the list. Second one is to familiarize yourself with the programming UI. There's a help tooltip on the bottom right corner. You can also hover over the X next to your CAD for an error message, in case you need it. Lastly is to understand the nature of spell pieces. Think of them as functions in a program, each with their parameters and return types. Pieces have parameters, which need to come in as a specific type (read, why you couldn't add motion with a number). Each non-trick piece also has a return type that is strung together with other pieces. Related info, vectors are often a major sticking point for people learning the ropes, but since you have prior experience, you should be fine. Have fun! (ps, brush up on radians)
Yeah, he got his radians totally wrong. 1 radian is 57 degrees. pi radians is a semi circle. 2pi radians is a full circle. Etho said that 1 radian = 1 pi or something xD
It's been years since you first created Psi but I just experienced it yesterday. Instant hook. Using a circle spell bullet and the basic CAD, I made an area denial spell that places explosions directly inside enemies. The result is that, inside a 32 block range of course, all hostiles get damaged repeatedly and shot into the sky due to explosion knock back. It looks like smoke stacks cause of how quickly the explosions repeat! I love how you balanced the system and crafting requirements. Thanks for making such an awesome mod!
Etho. If your stone generator fails again, you could instead try just a regular cobble generator, have it pick up the cobble, smelt it into stone, then just block-place it down where it needs to be.
Hey Etho, I'm pretty new to Psy as well, I only just reached level 5, and I found it easier to comprehend it if you always start with the "Trick" that you want to make, then if you hover on it and press shift, it tells you what it will need, like a vector or a constant, then you just have to look for other parts that return a vector or a constant and keep doing that until there's no "needy" blocks left
I literally, like right that second you said "If you knew this mod you are probably face palming right now" I just face palmed like at that moment just before you said that XD
Hi Etho, I rarelly commented on videos but I just watched one of those "RUclips's dying" video so I decided to go to my favorite channel, wich is Bdubs channel of course, no, but seriously, in case this youtube dying thing becomes true, I just wanted to say thank you for so many years of great entertaining. Now let's see if I'm able to find such a good sense of humor yours again. Have a nice day :)
Really enjoying the Psi stuff. I had a lot of trouble with the mod as I said before, so I'm not facepalming at all. It took me ages to figure out a lot of it. Really fun to watch!
ETHO!!! I've been watching your videos since about 400,000 subscribers and and have been dedicated to your awesome RUclips videos!!! It's crazy your almost at 2,000,000 subs!! You totally deserve it for you are my most favorite Minecraft RUclipsr EVER!!! KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!
Hey Etho, when are you going to go back to making Hermitcraft episodes? Your return to the server made me really happy, but then you became inactive again pretty quickly :( It's such a shame that you're not playing together with Beef on the server.
Hey Etho. You should know that the psi mod works using vectors so thats why the number didn't work with the add motion trick, before doing that you should use an operator called build vector.Btw great episode keep the good work :)
"If any of you _do_ know this mod, you're facepalming right now." I've never saw anything of this mod besides your videos, and I'm trying my best not to facepalm. xD This is so simple and intuitive! :P You figured it out, though, I'm proud of you! ;)
@EthosLab you probably can't just give the entity motion a radian because it needs a vector, not a constant number. So it's taking the vector (which might just be two directional values rotation up/down and rotation left/right) If there's a way to create the same sort of vector the player direction box gives a vector, you can probably give the direction a set value.
Hey Etho, For PSI, hovering over a tile with shift will say the requirements the tile needs to function properly, such as how Trick:debug outputs nothing, and requires an input of an entity, and optionally a number. Also, when you get an error in the code, hover over the X in the top left to get a better understanding of what is wrong.
Ive been in the hospital and when ever i can i watch your videos. You make me laugh when its a hard time for me. All i want is to laugh a little more... i get out in a week....
To add to the prank, you should add an export pipe which takes everything but toast sandwiches using a filter. Put his items in a shulker box and import it to his refined storage.
For the PSI mod, maybe you can read and try the tutorials, and just explain them to us. That way you don't have to dedicate too much time of the episode to PSI, but we'll still get what's going on :)
Hey Etho, FYI... You don't need to take the bullet our of the CAD everyone you change the program. Simply shift+right click with the CAD on the programming table and it will update the current selected bullet. :)
The psi logic is capable of what you were asking, but you need to send a vector, not a single constant. Later you will get a logic piece that can turn constants into a vector.
Please keep the Psi segments in the episodes. That explanation was really helpful and it helps you make content easier. The way I see it it's a win win
Oh... and tell Iskall that he can turn the TNT-thing off when he leaves the server so the timing doesn't get messed up. I don't want his great base to be blown up.
Gotta love how well balanced Minecraft-even modded-is! You can be geared up with really OP stuff, but still get killed by a handful of zombies ganging up on you.
+Derek Leung generally in programming, radians in terms of Pi are assumed. Therefore 2 radians in programming is usually actually 2pi radians. Etho comes from a programming background so it makes sense he has the predisposed mindset to omit pi in measurements.
***** That's not true. As a developer myself I can tell you angle ranges from 0 to 6.28, since we often have to combine it with trigonometric functions such as sine and cosine.
+Derek Leung It's a common practice to define radians somewhere in terms of pi, so that you can simply multiply by your radians constant when using trigonometric functions. I guess you're still kind of right, however.
I am so proud of myself rn because I recently learned about radians and how they compare to degrees and that I am able to follow along with what he's talking about.
Etho, a few tips on PSI, r/Spellcompendiun is a great place to look for spells. Shift-right-click with the CAD on the programmer table will override whatever spell you have selected. And DO NOT use expensive spells with a loopcast spell bullet, it will instantly kill you.
Etho, what if you upload side videos on the psi mod? like maybe a little mini-series on the Hermit-craft server that people who actually like the mod can watch and others can watch the regular series. Just a thought. Love the vids and keep up the good work!
Etho, I might have a way to use psi to teleport you to a preset location. (Could be your home, a secret underground base, or anything basically) If there is a variable block for your coordinates, you can write a program to teleport you to a preset location (such as your home) by setting constant numbers for the x, y, z of your preset location, then taking the variable block for your location (If there is one), calculating the difference in your position and the preset position, you can then input that distance into the trick: add motion and voila: It will send you travelling into the direction of your preset location. (If you have enough power) Please vote this up so etho can see. Thank you. P.S. If there is a trick for teleport that does all of this automatically, ignore everything I just said. :P
There isn't anything like that in Psi. Also, the one function that psi has for teleportation would require more power than you could ever supply to teleport over 3 chunks (meaning it would kill you if you tried). The closest thing you could do to this would be a spell that automatically moves you towards a set location slowly.
Cvoid Wyvern That's what the program above does. It teleports you towards the location, and if you don't have enough energy, you wait for the CAD to recharge and then run the program again. Of course, depending on how far away you are, it might take a relatively long time to reach your destination, however, I think this is a nice replacement for overpowered items in other mods that teleport you in one click. *whispers* We all know Etho doesn't like overpowered items. ;)
Okay I have a few things to say: 1) DID THE PRANK WORK 2) what was that you were saying etho (by the way it autocorrected to "ergo" (but ergo autocorrects to Erica...)) anyway what were you saying about all-nighters and sleep being for the weak? You need your sleep etho to keep making quality content 3) Also, I just have to say thanks for cheering me up on a bad day :) etho videos always make me feel better I hope I made sense... well
@EthosLab From what I remember of the psi mod you will be able to give a specific vector to a tile using 3 number constant tiles plugged into a tile you get in the Vectors 101 lesson.
Hey Etho, I'm the author of Psi (and also Botania, if that's relevant), just thought I'd chime in with a few tips.

Yeah, he got his radians totally wrong.
1 radian is 57 degrees.
pi radians is a semi circle.
2pi radians is a full circle.
Etho said that 1 radian = 1 pi or something xD
Love your work!!
besides, a vector is not a single number :) but he will learn! I have a trust in him

lmao
Thats one thing not every man could say
I actually had to do that too...for toast, cheese, and PIZZA!

I love this series... I hope it's more often in the future

Etho!! If you make a city, you can use that redstone clock and ninja star thing and make it sound really busy
Mars Violet smart
Mars Violet clever girl
Owen Priddy I'm a guy
I don't know, the first few minutes could be cool but it'd drive someone insane every time they're in the city. Just like people irl :P
Mars Violet this is hermit pack.
He has to be alone without any other person (and player). Search up definition of hermit. Then you'll know
Etho.
If your stone generator fails again, you could instead try just a regular cobble generator, have it pick up the cobble, smelt it into stone, then just block-place it down where it needs to be.

you seem like somebody that likes anime
+SpeedrunsTeddy you seem like a person who brings up anime on a completely irrelevant topic
Influxcapacitor Not to be rude but it is a relevant topic. The PSI mod is based on an anime.
The Irregular at Magic Highschool to be precise. And i just wanted to recommend it to Liya Rin because she seems to be interested in the mod.
I know it don't worry lol
I literally, like right that second you said "If you knew this mod you are probably face palming right now" I just face palmed like at that moment just before you said that XD

I actually really liked the psi mod stuff. Keep up the good work!
Ergo thank you for the episode! I really like this series and all the base buddies :)
Damn you etho! I am gonna get used to this double episodes a day if you keep this up!! You the best
Cubfan is nice, I really like seeing Etho and him nerding out together. They seem to level with eachother
Nice work Etho! Keep it up!
ItsTyler Ergo
I love the psi stuff. Also love this is my favorite series. Plz do more
Psi is a fascinating mod, and really good idea! I hope you continue to use it in the future!
ETHO!!! I've been watching your videos since about 400,000 subscribers and and have been dedicated to your awesome RUclips videos!!! It's crazy your almost at 2,000,000 subs!! You totally deserve it for you are my most favorite Minecraft RUclipsr EVER!!! KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!
Please play more hermitpack! There are so few hermitpack vidios :c
I agree more HermitPack = More Videos and Fun!
M Crafterzz - Gamemaker like
I miss the crackpack myself... just feels so empty without all that player interaction.
M Crafterzz - Gamemaker lol I'll fix that
Sticks Plays just... no
Love this episode! Much better than building episodes😁 Please do more of this Psi mod~~
no joke. i decided about 5 mins ago to research the psi mod. searched. and ur video was released 30 mins ago. lmao thanks for the video
Hey Etho, when are you going to go back to making Hermitcraft episodes?
Your return to the server made me really happy, but then you became inactive again pretty quickly :(
It's such a shame that you're not playing together with Beef on the server.
Jet Lag phewww you're here I was getting worried
Jet Lag yes I agree
I spy a Jet Lag! Yeah, I agree, although that many ongoing series may just be too much to maintain.
Jet Lag hermitpack is better
Hey he may just have some
turbulence
Ill leave now.
Hey Etho. You should know that the psi mod works using vectors so thats why the number didn't work with the add motion trick, before doing that you should use an operator called build vector.Btw great episode keep the good work :)
I actually really enjoyed the collab with cubfan, I DEFINITELY would not mind more! :D
That moment when you are bored af and you refresh your subscription box. ITS ETHO!!!!!!
OH MY GURD!!!!!!
This is my favorite series that you have ergo! please make more!!
i love it when you collab with other people!! definitely do it more with like iskall or xisuma or cub
omg I have been so hyped to see you do these magic guns
"If any of you _do_ know this mod, you're facepalming right now."
I've never saw anything of this mod besides your videos, and I'm trying my best not to facepalm. xD This is so simple and intuitive! :P

@EthosLab you probably can't just give the entity motion a radian because it needs a vector, not a constant number. So it's taking the vector (which might just be two directional values rotation up/down and rotation left/right) If there's a way to create the same sort of vector the player direction box gives a vector, you can probably give the direction a set value.
"Someone's pulling an all-nighter?"
You may not rest now, there are monsters nearby.
Oh! Etho knows his trig! Tell Iskal that he can use the entropinium still if he blows the tnt up in water.
Hey Etho,
For PSI, hovering over a tile with shift will say the requirements the tile needs to function properly, such as how Trick:debug outputs nothing, and requires an input of an entity, and optionally a number. Also, when you get an error in the code, hover over the X in the top left to get a better understanding of what is wrong.
I was watching Xisuma's Stream when you guys did that prank. It was really funny
Noice! This series is amazing!
An hermitpack episode keeps me happy for the rest of the day.
Iv been watching etho for 4 years now xD
Rick547 good
Rick547 same here!! actually it might be 5 years.... im such a awesome fan xD
no you haven't if u have you would know the block that tho wouldn't break and the place he would not break it
triangulated in English please?
Clay on chocolate island?
He gives you redstone, a laptop and a penguin and you send him three barrels of radioactive waste...
Simon Engelholm but it will look really good in iskalls iskallium factory so its good
well, it takes a _bit_ of time to _chisel_ the blocks (ahah got it? *Chisel* and *bits* ahahahhahahah ahahahhaha I'm sorry.)
The vector stuff is supported, but you have to unlock a "cast" for it later to supply a number to use
The machine doesn't lose energy, it just keeps getting faster and faster
In real life, we obey the laws of thermodynamics
I hope to see more videos. Seeing other bases kind of shows how much more others do on the server.
Ergo had me thinking my video wasn't loading. Nice prank!
yay finally another hermit pack video!
half circle is a pi radian, not 1 radian. A full circle is 2 times pi radian
That killed me a little on the inside
Yeah I feel you
He said that one radian is pi, which is not true. Pi radians is 180° ergo one radian is 180/pi which is approximately 57.3°.
That's radius, not radian.
You_just radius is the distance from the centre of a circle to the edge of that given circle.
Ive been in the hospital and when ever i can i watch your videos. You make me laugh when its a hard time for me. All i want is to laugh a little more... i get out in a week....
To add to the prank, you should add an export pipe which takes everything but toast sandwiches using a filter. Put his items in a shulker box and import it to his refined storage.
Ironically I started watching Irregular at Magic High the other day. Love this mod!
This is my Favorite series, it kills me because he is not doing it that often
2:50 aaaand now we need another video from rawb with etho and a penguin
For the PSI mod, maybe you can read and try the tutorials, and just explain them to us. That way you don't have to dedicate too much time of the episode to PSI, but we'll still get what's going on :)
Psi gun + slime boots, only way to travel
Nah man, Psi pants (activate spell every tick) + add motion spell + elytra = Jet Plane
Hey Etho, FYI... You don't need to take the bullet our of the CAD everyone you change the program.
Simply shift+right click with the CAD on the programming table and it will update the current selected bullet. :)
For most of us it's probably ok if you shortened the PSI stuff but I definitely don't wanna miss out on it completely!!
End server hunger, or play a prank?
easy choice
You should send unstable ingots and then they will explode. :)
Whoa, calm down there Satan
Wow Etho, great moves keep it up, proud of you!
The psi logic is capable of what you were asking, but you need to send a vector, not a single constant. Later you will get a logic piece that can turn constants into a vector.
Hey etho just so you know if you mess up the probe the player will notice. look at 27:48 you might have missed the message ;D
Please keep the Psi segments in the episodes. That explanation was really helpful and it helps you make content easier. The way I see it it's a win win
I like it better when Etho just explains it and doesn't just read off of the page.
10k Wooden swords all named We Are Legion. Great way to annoy someone when their inventory is always filling up.
I guess Etho's favorite thing is Logic, if he can use PSI Logic.
Iskall will probably will call that present not nuclear waste.... He will call it Molten Iskallium
Etho called it iSkallium in the letter too, the crazy fool knows :)
oh sorry i didn't pay attention :P
X streamed a couple days ago and he got a constant stream of toast. So that's what happened xD
This showed up in the new notification system and it was 36 sec ago... Normally it would take 10 minutes to show a notification like this! good joeb
Oh... and tell Iskall that he can turn the TNT-thing off when he leaves the server so the timing doesn't get messed up. I don't want his great base to be blown up.
i don't know why but i thought it was hilarious that etho filled his whole bag with cherries...
Put a bunch of those penguins around the desert
Gotta love how well balanced Minecraft-even modded-is! You can be geared up with really OP stuff, but still get killed by a handful of zombies ganging up on you.
I love it when Ergo uploads!
I saw that there is a penguin in the thumbnail so I am really excited now!
You got the radian thing completely wrong... A whole circle has an angle of 6.28 radians.
Yup. 360 degrees is 2π radians.
+Derek Leung generally in programming, radians in terms of Pi are assumed. Therefore 2 radians in programming is usually actually 2pi radians. Etho comes from a programming background so it makes sense he has the predisposed mindset to omit pi in measurements.

+Derek Leung It's a common practice to define radians somewhere in terms of pi, so that you can simply multiply by your radians constant when using trigonometric functions. I guess you're still kind of right, however.
who cares?
Etho you should do more collabs like this with the other players and probably help out poor iskall on his botania problem
12:45 You got muddled up. Half a turn is one pi radians, a whole turn is two pi radians.
Etho, can you go around everyone showing what they have made
Etho you rock!!
I am so proud of myself rn because I recently learned about radians and how they compare to degrees and that I am able to follow along with what he's talking about.
Build the Oasis that was promised to us.
Even a novelty island you never use in the middle of the desert with a microblock fountain or something.
love the psi together!
Etho, a few tips on PSI, r/Spellcompendiun is a great place to look for spells. Shift-right-click with the CAD on the programmer table will override whatever spell you have selected. And DO NOT use expensive spells with a loopcast spell bullet, it will instantly kill you.
* /r/psispellcompendium/
Awesome dude ive been wondering about psi
item has Debug in the title but yet you can do a texture glitch with it Amazing!
You can shift-click with a CAD to replace the selected spell with the one on the programmer
since I'm early, I just wanted to say keep up the amazing work etho! :D
what kind of plugs do you have in Canada? Do they look like this ( '•' ) or like this ( • • )?
Taha Abbasi Hashemi same xD
Owen Priddy wahahahahaha xD
I love this make it more often
I'm supposed to be playing game of war, but this one player keeps kicking my ass!
You can pass in custom directions for the gun, but you need to pass in a vector, not just a number.
The psi mod is literally a copy of the magic in Irregular a Magic High school...... NOICE! :D
Double upload baby!!!! Wooooooooo
Etho, what if you upload side videos on the psi mod? like maybe a little mini-series on the Hermit-craft server that people who actually like the mod can watch and others can watch the regular series. Just a thought. Love the vids and keep up the good work!

5:20 instructions unclear, got toaster stuck in brick... wait...
Confirmed, the Jarool army has been editing Etho's video all along
Ahh, so Ergo was involved! I was watching X's livestream when this happened. :D
could you send a link? i wanna see, but i'm lazy to google
+bbbbende Find Xisuma's stream archive for December 6th in his second channel. It starts around 1:12:50 in that video.
PiHung Liu i can't seem to be able to find that one, only the 12th is showing
bbbbende Find his second channel, not his twitch. His old stream archives are all there.
found it, it's hilarious! thanks!
It didn't want to accept the number because it's hard to turn 0.5 into a 3D vector
toman222 that was beefs nickname in high school
Owen Priddy Vector?
no, it was "it didn't want to accept the number because it's hard to turn 0.5 into a 3D vector"
FINALLY ETHO YOU BRING BACK MODDED HERMITCRAFT xD (sorry for caps)
I really enjoy the psi mod!
Okay I have a few things to say:
1) DID THE PRANK WORK
2) what was that you were saying etho (by the way it autocorrected to "ergo" (but ergo autocorrects to Erica...)) anyway what were you saying about all-nighters and sleep being for the weak? You need your sleep etho to keep making quality content
3) Also, I just have to say thanks for cheering me up on a bad day :) etho videos always make me feel better
I hope I made sense... well
@EthosLab From what I remember of the psi mod you will be able to give a specific vector to a tile using 3 number constant tiles plugged into a tile you get in the Vectors 101 lesson.
Yep, Vector construct. It's really nice in that it doesn't make you enter all three constants if the others are zero.
