News reporter: And here's etho with the item elevator report.
Etho: Its shoot'n sideways
pressure plates would work instead of rails :-)
EDIT: the point of those elevators is the dropper doesn't throttle the speed at which items can use the elevator. With a dropper there are lots of similar/efficient designs that can be used
+xisumavoid klol
H-hey xisuma! (runs away)
*To etho:*
In the nether rail, you could remove the ice in the sides and replace them with slabs (lower half). Boats occupy a space larger than 1 block, so it would still get the effect from the middle ice block, and wouldn't fall. And you would economize tons of packed ice and rails, which isn't that cheap.
About the item elevator; you could place a cobblestone fence, surround with wood, excluding the part where the water stream goes. Make the famous tower of glass, put a stick piston with an ice block on top that activates with a delay, and above the water stream put a stair facing downwards. The items are going to stop in the face, the piston is going to get activated, the items that couldn't go trough are going to get pushed back by the stair and the cobblestone fence will connect to the ice block, making the items float.
xisuma knows everythig.that can only mean one thing. Illummi....no wait that joke is old
#Xisthegamedeveloper😂
+xisumavoid what about the good ol' dropper-comprator-repeater elavtor?
The comparitor might be on a chunk border
That was literally the best transition ever at 9:00
After so many episodes...
I finally get the ender ender joke.
Same
+Kuboekin waait what joke
I don't can you explain? xD
Luis Rosas It ends the endermen. It's the end of the ender. Ender ender.
+Luis Rosas Ender as in Enderman, and End-er as in killing them. :P
Lol etho just ended up making a pumpkin chucker
+RileyTVS There are pumpkins in the game... this could be a minigame, and when the pumpkins hit the ground pumpkin pie (like the mush) could appear.
+Ionlymadethistoleavecoments is a great user name

Thanks friend
+Ismail it's just a simple joke chill
+Ismail English please
You say stardew valley would take a long time to complete, but here we have a minecraft survival series lasting for almost 450 episodes xD
Row row row your boat gently down the ROAD OF ICE AND TRACKS AT NEAR LIGHT SPEED...
Kek.

Get this to the top!!! Etho needs to read this!!!
Also saves tons of iron for the rails!
I love how etho is concerned about a long runtime for a series of Star Dew Valley, and here we are watching episode 445 of minecraft
+Ionlymadethistoleavecoments hahaha
The comparator setup might not have been working because of the direction the circuit was facing. Also, if you raise the glass that stops the item elevator up even one or two more blocks that might be enough to stop the items 100% of the time.

8:58
I love it when you do stuff like this.
Etho uploaded single player.... It's over 30 minutes. This made my night.
Post your Harvest Moon play through, and call it the "Ethrowback" series
I feel like almost all episodes start with etho fixing something that an update has broken.
I stopped being interested in Minecraft a little while ago but for some reason I keep watching Ethos let's play.
Congrats on Ep.445 Etho
18:30 it works, took at the end redstone... thats blinking
Ikr it was a visual glitch
8:58: "That was weird. You know what else is weird?" That's my new catchphrase.
I was at the KU vs Villanova game when Kansas lost. I was devastated. I couldn't stop crying. I went back to my hotel room and watched your video. After a while, you really made me feel better. Thank you so much for all your hard work! Please don't stop doing what you do! I love you!
Etho, when you tested the comparator clock the last time, the two pieces of redstone were actually flashing, so it might have been purely a visual glitch.
I hope he never stops these they are so cool
Episodes like this one are why I never fail to watch asap. Thank you Etho.
I love watching this series. I started my own LP thanks to you and am really enjoying it so far.
Etho its a snack elevator, so you can get you snacks!
was the reason the comparator stuff didn't work the east-west/north-south rule? or is that no longer a thing?
+HiveInsiderComments Yeah I was thinking it may be that or possibly a chunk border thing. I know that chunk borders make hoppers behave strangely/slower, but really I'm not sure
The Nether Tunnel looks fantastic Etho! Good job!
Etho, I have been watching you practically from the beginning. You were the first Minecraft let’s player I ever watched and you’re the main reason I got MInecraft. I wanted to know who/what got you into playing Minecraft?
I LOVE your ice tunnel in the nether. that color combo is AWESOME. I know this vid is super old, but in case you see this comment
18:36 the signal behind the block is pulsing, as you noticed the comparetor was "on" but not producing a signal, so perhaps it was all just visual glitches
I saw that too, I was wondering if anyone else caught it.
is dar a power-sworse under it? mabey the direction of the circut?
The problem with the comparators might be the direction the circuit is facing. Redstone triggers in different orders when oriented towards different directions. See if it still does the same thing if you make the circuits face the same direction.
Awesome vids btw! This is my favorite series :)
Hey Etho, I don't know if that's the case, but try cloning the comprator design that didn't seem to work in the same cardinal direction when you make copies, sometimes redstone can be affected by that due to game mechanics
Try using downwards flowing water in place of the two air blocks. The force of the water will slow the items down more.
+anker eisenman I think the same!
I loved that random cut to that noteblock thing!
Etho, I made similar piston powered item elevator in my world and ran into a similar problem. I eventually resolved it by widening the catching area and putting a water tank above it to slow down the items. I could never get it to be 100% lossless though. 99.9% sure, but once in a great while I'll look over and see an item inexplicable in a nearby tree.
Etho, you could disguise the item elevator as a silo
Etho! I have a solution to the item transportation issue... The long forgotten chest-minecart and hopper system is still valid... You can store multiple stacks of items inside a chest-minecart and move at a fast rate; moving chest minecarts around is lag-free too! I usually think of flaws with systems, though I can't think of any for this one!
I hope this solves your problems lad. good luck!
+1500lego "moving chest minecarts around is lag-free" Entity lag? Few minecarts is not a problem, but they add up pretty quickly.
+PerunaVallankumous Well you only need one minecart per item elevator, and it's not like redstone is lag-free either.
***** But it is not fully lag free. Nothing is.
PerunaVallankumous Of course nothing is fully lag free. But that's just invalidating your own argument. And besides, item elevators which don't use minecarts have even more entities present because the items themselves are entities whereas if using a minecart they'll never need to exist as entities, they'll only exist inside other entities and tile entities. Not having seen any evidence, I don't know which solution causes less lag.
I didn't say that your idea is bad. I just said that you are wrong when you say lag-free. You could have said that your item elevator is a whole lot less laggy than Etho's.
I haven't played this game in years but I still watch you
@9:00 That was the best transition ever.
Wow, so many Etho episodes!
new here?
+An Ugly Spycrab Nope.
k :P
and Etho, stardew Valley is perfect for youtube. Long series are perfect
Always enjoy Etho's videos.
This episode is impressive. Great video Etho!
its the southwest glitch, you need to rotate the design by 90 degrees.
@ 8:00 it may be directional/chunk based, you've known that chunks and directions affect redstone!
Hey Etho! One of the reasons I watch your videos is because your funny,fun and and a redstone prodigy!!!
Haven't been here since 2009 or around there you've progressed alot!
Hang on Etho, I gotta let my pizza cook first before I can watch this episode!
+BmwsuGameplay Okay, it's done. Let it commence!
Mmmmm you making me hungry :D
+BmwsuGameplay How's the pizza?
+FiveTwelve Absolutely delicious. Almost as good as this episode.
+BmwsuGameplay You gotta have that snack, it's a must! :D
Etho, maybe put a cobweb to slow items down.
Etho! The reason the items are shooting out is because they still have sideways velocity when the piston launches them. When they reach the top of the elevator, some of them are going to shoot at the corner of the glass block, and glitch through. When you broke the dirt above the item stream next to where the items popped up, it actually made it worse, because it opened up an uncovered corner that you had just gotten rid of (at the bed). All you have to do is replace the dirt, and it will work a lot better.
i kinda like the items hitting the glass from you new design. it really adds a machine/conveyor belt/popcorn effect. adding another air gap would only may the effect greater and make your elevator more reliable ! i see no flaws!!! keep up the good work!!!
Etho, Don't be sad your Item Elevator is shooting items through the blocks... Just think of it this way, you created an Item Elevator that moves items TO fast!
Hey Etho, mayby you could place the water sourceblock from the new item elevator one block back. Because the items are mayby going in to the sides of the elevator, so they go in to the dirt and shoot out. If you place there the water than the items stop in the water and flow with the stream. I love your video's, keep up the good work :).
+mr. Octopus Yeah bro, that's a realy good idea.
+mr. Octopus HEEEEEY that's pretty good -Idoobbss 2015
+mr. Octopus itho U NEEEEEEED 2 C this
+mr. Octopus Like if you watch in march 2016 \(^_^)/
etho! you could put a log pile, hay stack or rock over the top of the item elevator and that would make the items stop flying and make it ascetically pleasing. just a thought and it should work in theory.
that ice boat tunnel is LIT
Hey Etho, the comparator thing seems to be just a visual bug. If you look at the redstone at 18:35 behind the red clay you can see that it is flashing.
+derpfaceXD yes it is just the red stained clay it is on, the snapshot has lots of visual bugs like with torches and other particle-emitting blocks. hope he sees this so he knows he did it right and was on the verge of a great idea!
Etho I know you're a big gamer, so here's my question: What game consoles do you have? You said you had at least a PlayStation but what other ones do you have? Anyway, keep up the great work!!!
The nether tunnel looks really nice!
Etho, the reason items are shooting through the glass is due to two things. 1. When items shoot through at an angle it is because they were still in motion when they got ejected by the piston. 2. The headroom at the top of the elevator needs to be a minimum of 7 from the last block, which would include in your case a water source and 6 air spaces. In my months of testing this is the safest number to use and can shoot items from bedrock to y 254 without glitching out the top. A shorter elevator can work with less headroom, but it is just a matter of time before an item will glitch through.
"If you smack the boat it just goes flying..."
MAKE AN ICE HOCKEY RINK IN THE HERMIT SERVER :D
If Mojang removes the effect a boat has when on ice I will be so sad.
Etho have you tried replacing the elevators top blocks with solid stuff like dirt or cobble instead of the transparent blocks of glass? i mean you use glass in the elevator because it lets blocks go through i'd assume thats why the items are flying everywhere
That's what I thought as well!
+Terminatorskull30 item elevators work with solid blocks as well, the glass is just so you can see the items fly up
I'm pretty sure all blocks work in block elevators he just uses glass so he can see the items
+Terminatorskull30
I think he uses glass, because you can see the items travelling through it.
But I think the real problem is the speed of the item.
For example:
glass
air
air
water
ice
glass
↑(item)
If the item travels 2blocks/tick and it's in the ice in the one tick and in air, the next tick, it would be in glass in the third tick.
So it's skipping collision detection, because the item travels to fast.
(The trick is often used in speedruns to get the player through walls)
well thanks for the info guys. i always use dropper item elevators so wasnt sure of the mechanics, are there any blocks items wont go through or can they go through any block if the speed is high enough?
This Is probaby the longest going minecraft survival series
weddings are the new funereals
18:37 The Clock Is working but i guess its a visual glitch as you said, Etho
Etho at 18:38 the redstone in the corner behind your clay block was flashing. Doesn't that mean it is working? I'm not sure so correct me if I'm wrong but it looked like it was working to me.
+hadesman19
True.
Hey Etho, don't forget about the lava source blocks that are now randomly in Neitherrack in the nether. That means even more work and possible death unless you are quick or have fire resist potion.
+iamfuturetrunks or full fire resistance :D
Hey Etho, I have a good idea for Wilson. I think there should be a way to talk to him. If you are considering adding in a system giving him moods then this idea would work perfectly. If Wilson is sad or mad maybe pressing a button with a sign next to it can be like asking a question. You can also hook this up with your Redstone to bring up his happiness. If you add a mood like depression and he stops taking food from you talking to him will let you feed him. Having a way to socialize with him would really make his mood change and saying nice things would make him angry. I also have another idea with low levels of health or food. If his health or food is low you should have alerts around the man cave and maybe even some notebooks to play a tune to know when you need to check on him. These are just some ideas you can take into consideration when you work on Wilson again. I love your videos and keep up the good work. ;)
I love your videos, but I think 8:58 is the first time i've ever laughed out loud from watching them.
I'm too early, this can't be real! :P Anyway, already looking forward to this, I'm always happy with redstone-y episodes! Now I'll actually go watch it.
+EthosLab I love it when you have those random segway bits, I would love to see where you make them all if they are in the same place.
Etho you should totally do more building...such as episode 414 I think it is where you build the blacksmith. I really enjoy just the generic building of random stuff like that. Keep up the good work mate.
Aw man I would actually love to see you play Stardew Valley :3
Put a cobweb at the top of the elavator
You probably solved the issue
Remember the old south/west rule before the map cardinal roptation? Now called the north/west rule. Maybe the 90º rotation of the circuit affected it?
Part of the redstone circuit that wasn't working was blinking on and off, I have a feeling there was a torch under the platform causing a short circuit...
People need to see AT LEAST the first episode of CringeMoon.
why
I'm going to watch it now.
Etho, when are you going to release a world download for all your recent projects 😉
+KaisYn Craft A while ago he said that his world was getting so big that it was crashing the sites he uploaded to, and it took forever to download/make backups/load backups. I wouldn't expect any.
he said he would give us the world downloads occasionally but won't announce them so only people who genuinely check the description for the world download every episode would be able to get it
PB Whatsoup every world tour he said he will have a world download
Etho is the reason I love problem solving :-)
I finally have snacks for an etho video!!
use mor dank mems in ur videos
+Jamin Ben can you taste it
I have autism but I get what he means when he says it :p
yaksher hiss?
mike shaft hisses! h's and 3's should go die.
yaksher MattyB is a fucking sweet potato.
Is it a directional issue that stops the comparators working?
That is what I thought too, but I thought mojang had fixed those.
+asderc1 No, his comparator dropper circuit's pulse is either too short or too long.
The signal has to be just right to travel to the comparator on subtract
mode, and then it needs to be off. He needs to set the repeater at the end of the
monostable circuit to 2, 3, or 4 ticks and see which one works.
I love the tunnel design Etho :)
Put fences on either side of the rail. Then Zombie Pigmen can't spawn, but the boat still fits through and gets the ice effect. It also makes the tunnel effectively narrower, so you don't have to worry so much about your boat swerving around.
Hey Etho, some time ago, when you changed your internet provider you said that you will start streaming sometime. Is that still a thing or have you lost interest?
Etho, if you could put one command block in your vanilla world what would it do?
Hack 2000 more in
+J. Jr. Propably a get your snacks machine ;)
With one he would probably stop night
It's mostly shooting sideways because it's passing through the water stream in that direction. It seemed all over the place because some odd ones didn't get the water push, and just went randomly as its normal nature observed previously, but clearly most were pushed in the water flow direction.
etho ive watched ur episodes for awhile and sometimes i fall off and have to catch up its like a netflix series lol but your most entertaining smart youtuber keep up the amazing work
the elevator doesn't work because of the orientación of the circuit D:
Darn, 360p
I SHALL RETURN
+GreatSwordOfVictory I'm with ya buddy
You can come back now
Jacob Byrd Thanks for the heads up ^^
+GreatSwordOfVictory Darn, still 720p. I SHALL RETURN! (i hope he will upgrade his gear some time)
Etho I tried your competitor clock method and it worked for me
The problem with these piston pushers is that the items get so much speed that they shoot through the blocks on the top. With a short elevator cobwebs to slow the items down might be enough.

ETHO YOU ROCK!
Dear etho, if you manage to read this you can replace the rails and packed ice blocks in the nether with just a single ice trail in the center and slabs on the side. Because the boat is larger than 1 block it won't fall down and you'll save a bunch of ice in the process. Love your content, keep up the good work :) re comment this tip so he sees it guys :P
Hey Etho! I don't know if you have clarified on this or not, but why don't you have any merchandise? I would love to see some Etho themed shirts/hoodies or whatnot. Thanks!
+Austin Carlson I remember he said when he left mindcrack because he wasn't interested in the more business type stuff that he would have been forced to do.
Sam Compton Ok, that makes sense. Wouldn't it be awesome to have a "Cooking with Etho" shirt though? Anyway thanks for the response.
+Austin Carlson Yea that would be pretty great :/ oh well
Unfortunately, he's not the kind of guy to do that. Although it would be cool.
There should be
You've been Ethod shirts
This guy is better then Stampy .stampy cheated eny way.
He's still making these after 3 years??!? Holy cow! Last time I saw this I was 13
Ethos explains it. Still kinda confused. Keeps watching haha
