Now as I'm sure all of you already know I absolutely love creating wave machines in Minecraft
I mean I've made a bunch of them at and I often say that there's some of the most satisfying
Redstone contraptions to watch I mean, come on.
I think it goes without saying doesn't it but here's the thing
I've only ever really made one type of wave machine
You see, I received a comment down in the comments section
Suggesting that I should try out some different shapes and sizes and I thought to myself
You know what? That's a really good idea because I've only ever gone from corner to corner in that sort of diagonal style
And there's plenty of different ways in which we can do it now to give us the maximum possible
Freedom when it comes to doing different repeater timings and things like that
We're going to be using minecarts for our wave because as you can see the actual mechanism for launching
These minecarts is really really simple
All we need to have is an observer and a sticky piston as opposed to all of the timing circuits
that you need to have if you're using something like sand or concrete?
So this will allow us to place in all of the repeaters in all of these gaps right here in loads of different ways
So design, number one that I want to go for is kind of like a ripple effect
I'm gonna start launching them in the middle
So the first one's going to go up and then it's going to ripple out from there. This this is gonna be interesting
So, let's see if this thing looks anywhere near as cool as it does in my head here goes
(laughter)
that looked pretty sweet that's really sweet, oh my word
Look at that!
I can't tell if that's actually more- I think that might be more satisfying than a regular wave machine
So things have gotten off to a pretty good start right there. That was an interesting wave now
I'm just wondering what would happen if we kind of inverted this so I've got myself a new set of
Pistons and minecarts and everything and I'm actually going to go in from the corner
So I guess we'll run in like that. And then that looks to me like it's the middle one
so this will run in like this...
And then we'll have that going on on all the corners. Now, I am not a hundred percent certain
If this is going to work how I expect it to
But in theory, yeah, the maths should add up because that will go to there. Ooh, no, we don't we don't do it like-
Yeah, yeah we can do it we can do- we can do it like that...?
Yeah, yeah, I I think I was right, I mean you never really know with this sort of thing
I know what effects I'm trying to create in my head
It's just placing in the repeaters in the correct order so that you get that effect. That's where things get tricky. But...
Ooh!
Now this one is a cool one, oh
(laughter)
I like that one.
Oh, I do like that one
That's very cool. But we have to ask ourselves a question which one is cooler out of these two
Is it's this one or this one this is the best video I've ever made
It's literally the best video I've ever made I could look at this all day long
We need to keep going there is so many more. There are so many more waves that we can create here
But Wow now this one in theory is like the best of both worlds
So what we have right here is kind of like a four hotspot design
I've copied this designed four times over and what it's going to do is
This one is going to launch
So we're basically going to have four launch points and they're all going to meet up in the middle in theory
that's that's what I think is going to happen and
Let's see if that is the case
Not the best start right, let's see if that is the case
It is the case and it looks glorious.
Ooh! That might be my new favorite and let's face it attaching a very fast redstone clock to it is only going to improve things. ploop!
(more laughter)
It doesn't even look like minecraft anymore! It doesn't look like minecraft!
I'm also amazed at how smoothly my computer is managing to render all of this because there's a lot of entities here.
holy mackerel...
(even more laughing)
This entire video is just gonna be me giggling. Just giggling away at minecarts flying through the air now just out of interest
How would it look if we did the corners one on a larger scale so that all comes in as well?
So once again, we've got four of those modules and it's going to go in from the corners, but also there's corners
Somewhere in this mishmash. So these are all going to pop up at the same time as well. So it's kind of
It's going to create four. I don't know. I genuinely don't- I don't know what this is gonna look like
So it's just it's the negative of that one it's the reverse of that one
That's interesting in of itself. Ok. Now we're finally starting to test my computer a little bit
but it's finally getting there things starting to struggle and slow down and
Before you ask no, I still can't decide which one I prefer. Alright next up
We're going for a totally different approach. What I'm going to do is I'm going to create rings of redstone goin' 'round like this
We're gonna have one ring of redstone for the outer edge and then they're going to well
They're gonna be rings all the way through and then we're going to have repeaters connecting up these rings
Meaning that hopefully what should happen is is that we should get the outside ring fire
Then this one then this one then this one then this one all the way up into the center
Yeah
It could end up looking quite cool. Now just before I've even pressed the button I reckon this is going to be a lot less
Exciting than some of the other designs
Let's see. I could be totally wrong
But I think I'm right there's something nice about it there there's something quite cool about it but
But it's nowhere near as cool or as dynamic as some of the other things going on, why is this one not activatin'?
Oh, and now I'm breaking stuff. You know what I give up on this one. I don't like it very much, especially
Because I've just come up with a ridiculously cool new idea, which I think is going to create something incredibly fancy
so if we just do a few of those like that
and then run them along like this and
Then what this is going to do is this is actually going to go all the way around like that
And we're kind of gonna try and create some form of spiral wave
(wheesing) to be honest with you...
I really don't know about this one, but it's about to get interesting. Now I might have made a meal out of this
Okay, I really might've done
(even MORE laughter)
That is awful how have I gotten this bad we started off so well
What is even happening there?
Aww dear so I thought what I'd do is I'd go back to an old tried and tested design
Now this is the actual The Wave, I guess that is that is a Wave right there
And I mean it does look quite cool. I think with all these new fancy designs that we've created
We've kind of forgotten quite how cool
the regular wave was
And I'm just trying to think to myself, you know
Which one is cooler
Because that's a difficult question to answer as that is also a very very satisfyi- oh, man
Oh
How many times in this episode of I said that it doesn't look like minecraft it - literally - it does not look like minecraft anymore
I mean if I start activating these things we are going to get ourselves a bit of a lag fest.
Oh my word
D'ya reckon we can add the other one into the mix things are starting to slow down already
But I think we might be would suggest about pull it off here it goes
(Stop laughing, Mumbo)
Aww, we've got some slow motion going here wow
I'm get a screenshot of this... somehow
It's a less settle this once and for all there's going to be a poll on the screen that you can answer for which design
You think is the best we have got design number one
Which is the full pimple design and that looks a little bit like this we have got design number two
Which is the four corners design, which is launching in from the corners and the center
so I guess is the four corners and the middle and that looks like that it's like a negative version of
This one over here very very nice. Or, finally, we have got the old faithful, the original wave machine The Proper Wave
Travelling across from corner to corner design number three. Let me know via the youtube poll
and also let me know down in the comments section any other wave designs that you can think of I mean that there were a
Few ideas that I had that didn't end up working
There's also a few that was so bad that they didn't end up in the video
That's how bad they were because you saw some of the designs of the video so it's been fun
It's been really really fun experimenting with this stuff
but anyway
