3-Way Bedrock Breaker (Minecraft 1.15 - 1.16) @DesktopFolder

DesktopFolder V2: youtube.com/watch?v=kTRjq0kCfHU

A fast 3-way (or, if you prefer, N-wide 1-way) bedrock breaker for Minecraft versions 1.15.2 and 1.16.1. (To start this machine, refer to this video: youtube.com/watch?v=kgPYbadSzMw which also covers player loading.)

The 3-way TNT duper used in this machine was found to be inconsistent in some situations. An updated version with a TNT layout by Sarah has been created and appears to fix this bug while still being nondirectional. If you encounter any problems, please let me know.

1.13+ (honeyless) version: bilibili.com/video/BV1gK411N7nn

Update (August 2) Even 11.19 seems to have extremely rare issues with the TNT duper. Will investigate again in the future.

Updated litematics & world download zips (Version 11.19 - Uses Sarah's duper):
mega.nz/folder/NIxUzYiS#JQEPL9WhnqzfjBh3irbYng

I've gone ahead and removed the links to the previous world download and litematics; if you for whatever reason need them, send me a message on discord.

This is a prototype of sorts, and while it is perfectly servicible for first-layer bedrock breaking, moving it down will require either breaking a larger area with the previous runs of the breaker, or using a more compact breaker for the bedrock that this machine can't break. As breaking bedrock is fairly expensive post-1.12, it's recommended to do the latter. (Alternatively, a stripped-down version of this machine could be used, and the pistons/slabs manually placed and moved)

I will make a more detailed explanation video for this machine in the future. However, this is essentially just a lot of slimeblocks, pistons, observers, and miscellaneous other blocks, arranged in a somewhat disturbing and appallingly inefficient pattern.

Regarding the necessity of using pistons as 'fuel' to break bedrock, although this is a somewhat frustrating change since 1.12, I don't think this should be a major concern for the kind of server that would be using a machine like this. If you're considering building this in singleplayer, however, or on a smaller server (or, really, any server without a couple witch farms) I would strongly recommend doing the math first. (To create a 300x300 perimeter, WITHOUT taking overhead into account, would require (300*300*5/(64*9)) = 781.25 stacks of redstone blocks (28.9 chests full!)

Common Questions (for video avoiders):
- Works for any bedrock layer.
- Requires (1) downwards facing piston and (1) stone slab (or equivalent) as input per bedrock broken, as is the norm in post-1.12 bedrock breaking. Pistons can be retrieved by player; I do not recommend attempting to retrieve the slabs.
- Is not directional (although I only tested in litematic direction & 90 degree rotation... works on my machine!)
- 36 game ticks per bedrock asymptotic (the rate improves the longer the machine is, with 36gt being the limit; however, this is already much faster than past 1.12 designs with just 20 blocks of length). (26gt while breaking bedrock, 10gt while returning)
- Yes, it is large, and has overhead each time it is moved down (but running this at y5 does not require bedrock to be broken, unlike my previously released 1-way design)
- Does not require blocks underneath the bedrock breaker. Does require slabs regardless of whether or not bedrock is underneath. Has sticky blocks at lowest level, so bedrock layer should be cleared of movable blocks.
- There should already exist suitable floor placer designs which could be used to place the pistons and slabs. If not, it should be possible to create a 2-high piston/slab floorplacer to create the 'carpet' required for this machine.

Becoming the Worlds First Folder VTuber

DesktopFolder 2023-04-02 | In this video, we transcend physical reality in order to become one with the internet superhighway.

Huge thanks to Henrik (twitch.tv/also_henrik and youtube.com/channel/UCVgxvrgfcyS1mJKGhBo160g) who made the first, and currently only, DesktopFolder fan art! It's... such a big improvement over my video recorded version.

Also massive thanks to Moupie (soundcloud.com/smilingmuffin) who made the electronic music used in this video. I've listened to it so many times now and... yeah, it's fantastic. Or I'm just an addict to electronic music. Either/or.

This video is not an April Fool's joke, but I always release a video on April 1, so I figured it would do. It's... a joking-style video? Is that good enough?

The next video on this channel will definitely be Minecraft related. Unless it's not. In which case, I sincerely apologize (ok, not THAT sincerely. like an 8/10 on the apology scale)

Making a safer infinite bedrock breaker

DesktopFolder 2022-07-11 | there were a few (a lot) more issues that I fixed with this setup after ending the recording, after which I discovered this didn't even work for other reasons.
ultimately I did get a safe variant of this infinite 3-way bedrock breaker setup working and if you want to copy the wiring I uploaded you can go here BUT ONLY IF YOU ARE SURE THIS IS WHAT YOU WANT TO DO IT IS WAY SLOWER AND JANKIER AND THIS LITEMATIC SPECIFICALLY NEEDS TO BE CHUNK ALIGNED github.com/DesktopFolder/DesktopFolder.github.io/releases/tag/Safe-Infinite-3way-v1.3 TRUST ME YOU DO NOT WANT TO USE THIS IN ALMOST ANY SITUATION except you might want to use the floor placer although it's kinda slow now for some reason, I'll look into that eventually I guess

also this doesn't work on Paper after all so this may have all been for nothing except content, which I guess is all it was really for in the first place, so

huge thanks to Desu who made the bedrock breaker: youtube.com/channel/UCtgVh2_yfyGMUP3FmOkQQ_A
and glowsquid who made both the old and new floor placer: youtube.com/c/glowsquidmc

Was this bedrock breaking actually faked?

DesktopFolder 2022-06-05 | This was initially supposed to be a postscript to the original video. However, as the original video was an hour long, it ended up not really working. Frankly, the only reason this video exists is the sunk cost fallacy & a desire to be 1/10th as good at video editing as Beppo.

DEBUNKING [allegedly] FAKED Bedrock Breaking in Minecraft Hardcore VIDEO

DesktopFolder 2022-05-28 | In this video, we very seriously review and analyze the video "I Broke 21,722 Bedrock to Make This in Minecraft Hardcore" by Beppo. Go leave a like and subscribe here: youtube.com/watch?v=g9DtdumBoRU

This was mostly done for fun in a 'backseating' kind of way, so please avoid bothering the original creator. As mentioned in the video [unless I cut it out lol], it's not really a big deal to fake stuff like this, and it's clear that a lot of people did catch on, so I'm not too worried about a spread of misinformation. It's also way better to see this stuff in a video, being credited appropriately, with some background probably-slightly-cheatiness than to not see it at all. This did slightly delay my infinite bedrock breaking tutorial video, but only slightly, so don't worry... (that's a lie I am now burnt out on editing see you in 2023)

Details, but unformatted:

This is a 3-way bedrock breaker that can run infinitely if set up properly.
Soft requirements for using this machine are:
- Being able to have 3 players online simultaneously
- Adjusting the machine for your render distance
- (More risky) Adjusting the machine for your desired width

The machine, by default, is configured for 9 render distance, 7 simulation distance. On servers, this will only work with 8 render distance. However, you should test first to ensure you know what your entity ticking distance is. I cannot guarantee the checks have remained stable across versions.

Piston-based bedrock breaking setup explained

DesktopFolder 2021-04-30 | This video aims to provide a high-level, practical & somewhat comprehensible explanation of the mechanics behind piston-based bedrock breaking, and how they combine to allow for it to take place. Deciding whether or not it succeeded is an exercise left to the viewer. There are previous and more in-depth explanations of several of the mechanics in this video; if you're interested, please see the References section below.

A written explanation is available at desktopfolder.github.io/videos/piston-bedrock-breaking/explanation.html and may be updated/upgraded later as time and energy permits.

Little postmortem:
I was somewhat excited to try my hand at doing an explanation video for this, as tutorials, guides, and different teaching methods in general are something that interest me a fair amount. There were a few things that I think I didn't properly account for. Although doing this video unscripted allowed me to finish it in a not horrific amount of time, it did make it very clear how difficult it can be to explain something 'on the fly'. Another problem is that several of the mechanics here only really exist as 'general knowledge' theoretically backed by a couple people's in-depth knowledge of the codebase, but don't really have defined ways of explaining/talking about them (or good resources). Overall, the biggest success of this video (in my opinion) was probably the block events demo, as using carpet for this made the actual mechanics much simpler to visualize (and would have been pretty handy a year ago...)

Other notes:
- If you don't have Carpet, I don't know of a way to get normal spectators to ride minecarts; you will most likely need a mob switch (especially in the nether, where the machine will uncover many spawning spaces for Ghasts)
- I think half the community is working on better versions. If the overhead cost of this (35,35,13,17) isn't up your alley, I would recommend waiting.
- If you are using the player loading shown in this video and stop the machine, it will break unless you make sure to load the flying machines that fly back after the machine stops. Basically just place the redstone block, wait for the machine to return, then fly back to the return station with the miscellaneous small flying machines.

If you commonly read this far in descriptions, I recommend finding a hobby.

...in all fairness, I did just add 2 paragraphs to make that joke, so...

Fast Bedrock Breaker - Proof of Concept (Minecraft 1.15.2)

DesktopFolder 2020-06-17 | A flying machine that breaks a one-wide line of bedrock, with one bedrock being broken per 35 game ticks (or 1.75 seconds, at 20 tps).

Thanks to Totorewa and BattleFishMan for help with design.

Notes:

Although I'm pretty sure it's possible to move this machine back & over, I'm not sure how easy that would be or if it would be worth it to do so for this design versus a different one. Although Mojang has removed a lot of bedrock breaking technology, it seems like there are still a lot of approaches for doing so, and it stands to reason there's probably something better than this for making a 3-way breaker. At least this one is fast.

This setup is tested on Minecraft 1.15.2. It should work on any versions with honey blocks. I've also done minor testing rotating it around, which worked.
