I think it's safe to say that Minecraft is famous for a number of different reasons. We've got the blocks
We've got the infinitely generating world the fact that it's completely open and completely sandbox
You can do whatever you really fancy, but [also] there [are] the [bugs]
Minecraft is a notoriously buggy game in fact
It's filled to the brim with bugs
Nowadays is not quite as bad as it used to be but back in the olden times there used to be some ridiculous things going
On in Minecraft and some of them
were incredibly useful so today we're going to take a look at some of the awesome bugs that have been removed from Minecraft and I
Think it's going to require all fun now before we begin. I just want to say a massive disclaimer right here
I am fully aware of the fact [that] these things are bugs. They are not meant to be in the game
Which is why Mojang removed them so please don't start tweeting all the people that work at Mojang.
Saying how [stupid] they [are] for removing certain bugs because well that really won't get you anywhere
These were awesome bugs
But I'm also glad that they got removed. This first one got removed really quite recently in fact it got taken out in the Minecraft
1.7 [update] which rolled out just a couple weeks [ago], and then of course is the translocation piston bug now this sounds extremely complicated
But essentially it meant that you got pulled through the piston if the piston arm extended through you
Now this doesn't sound particularly useful
but it was actually perfect for massive travel ators that take you thousands of blocks or even
Elevators which can take you to the top of the sky limit really very quickly I use the matter not on the hermit graph server
And I'm a tiny bit upset
I now have to redesign pretty much every elevator in my base
Going back a little bit now to a slightly more old-school bug right here. This is a really good way [of] finding cave systems
strongholds dungeons and all that good stuff
All you had to do was place a piston then a tiny bit of redstone
and then a redstone block or some form [of]
Transparent object then cause that piston to extend up pushing the transplant object on top of your head
And then suddenly you could see through the blocks and see all [of] the cave systems around you now
This is extremely handy if you wanted to find that sort of thing
But most importantly if you just bought yourself a mob spawner, [and] you really wanted to light up the surrounding caves
This was a good way of locating them unfortunately this got removed
Relatively recently and now on to one of the most famous bugs in all of Minecraft
[I] personally remember when mojang which [find] their absolute hardest to patch this every single week
[they] would come up with an update and then on the day [of] the update someone would create a new version of this there was
About [ten] times faster and seemed to produce even more sad that of course
I am talking about the sand generator here now the way these things work
basically
Depended on the fact that sand is gravity affected and pistons can push and pull blocks and that meant that it caused some timing issues
And things with the way that Minecraft was coded which essentially meant the you
Duplicated the sand and by the end of this when we had reached the end of the development cycle of sand generators
We got some absolutely ridiculous contraptions
I mean these things were enormous, ly fast producing thousands upon thousands of sand a minute
You could get pretty much an entire desert with just a flick of a lever it was incredible
But obviously a little bit overpowered as you guys know Redstone is sort of my thing
I personally love redstone and throughout the entire history of Minecraft
[you've] always needed to create redstone lines between components as obviously we want to connect up [to] Redstone contraptions
You need a redstone line connecting them but at some point in Minecraft. There was a wireless redstone bug now
This is an obvious thing [this] was not a component
And it wasn't an obvious bug either in fact it was really very strange and whoever discovered it
I have to tip my hat to you because I don't know what you were doing or what you were trying [to] create
But it really was very impressive
Since you had a boat on top of an ironbound [of] a sticky piston
[there] were bounced up and down and if you looked at a certain type [of] iron bar the boat would drop down onto the pressure
Plate giving a redstone output and if you looked at a different type of iron bar then the boat would pop up
Deactivating the pressure plate mean you didn't have a redstone output
It was really very strange, but also read quite cool [never] fun
story my first ever experience with redstone
Was to build one of these
I needed a large number of powered rails and the best way to get lots of powered rails was to create a powered rail
Duplicator now, this is getting extremely old now I'm talking before Minecraft was originally released
But what you had to do was put some powered rails on the faces of sticky pistons and then connect them into some other powered
Rails and spam those [pistons], and then suddenly powered rails would start appearing out of nowhere
It was amazing and also a lot cheaper than going out and finding all the gold because there was no efficiency tools back then so
That will take ages this one's a bit of a strange case because this bug was recently removed a couple months ago
And now has been put back
Into the game and made a lot simpler which I'd say is a pretty good thing and that [is] the item elevator
Originally had to run items in through a water source
Then into the side of a fence post and that will push the items up into the water stream
Which was really very strange now
You just have to place a drop of facing upwards into a bunch of blocks, and that's it
You just connect it up into a redstone clock that makes quite a life easier
I don't know if I'd [call] this one a bug or an intent feature that eventually got removed because it was just so have apparel
And that is the Minecraft 1.7 observer blog now when these things were first introduced in the snapshots
They were completely bonkers
They would attacked updates in air blocks which meant you could chain observer blocks together?
round Corners upWards downwards sideways
Whatever you really fancied and all of these change would activate
Instantly they could do everything instantly, so it's like instant redstone, and it completely changed the way that everyone did redstone
I pumped out a bunch of redstone contraptions everyone else was making Redstone contraptions
But then mojang saw took a minute and thought hmM actually
These things are a little bit confusing and also they don't make too much sense
especially for those who are new to redstone so then they changed them up and
Basically made them a tiny bit more a lot before we had crazy pissed
Elevators slime block Elevators Minecart elevators, and all that sort of thing we had something else they didn't involve any redstone
It didn't involve any pistons or anything like that. [that] was at the boat elevator
All you had to do was place one water source [right] the way up in the sky wherever you wanted to go and that would
fall down to the ground
Preferably into the water and then you would travel along with your boat and because of the way that the boats were coded they would
Always float to the surface of the water which means as soon as you'd hit this water
Your boats would begin to travel upwards and you would speed up
Through this water source until you reach the top [and] then you would sort of take off into the sky
Bobbing up onto the surface it would look hilarious and also work extremely well
Now if there's any bugs that I'm a little bit sad about and any bugs. I sort of [miss] in the game
I definitely say this is the one because
It's probably one of my personal
Favorites especially [because] of how [old] is when this bug was actually active in the game
And I was trying my best to make redstone contraptions around it. I used to absolutely hate it now
[I] used to call it the armageddon piston bug and essentially meant that the piston arm would travel through his own piston arm
And then the piston would break so you would have both textures displaying at exactly the same time
the retracted piston and also the extended piston
And it would look really very strange now this would happen if you sent two pulses through the piston
[too] quickly in a certain way
And when I was starting out on my [Youtube] channel when I was first creating my early redstone contraptions it
seemed to happen every couple seconds
And it used to drive me around the bend one good way to locate diamonds caves dungeons
And that sort of thing was to make use of chunk errors though. This was a rendering error in Minecraft
You'd be walking along adventuring through the Minecraft terrain
And then suddenly there'd be a massive hole 16 by 16 right the way through to the void now
That's basically where Minecraft decided not to render that chunk. It wasn't displaying it the trunk was there
I mean all of the blocks were in place
But you just couldn't see them and [the] good thing is is that you can actually peep over the edge and take a look down
underneath
Into the side of the cliff face and see where all of the diamonds [and] where all of the caves were it was really useful
But it did use to get quite annoying because well. They'd be all over the place. I'll be honest
There's a chance that this bug is still in the game, and it hasn't been removed
I'm not a hundred percent certain yet, but [I] have found a few examples of it on the hermit Craft Server however
[I] have tried it in a single-Player world with thousands upon thousands of hoppers, and I haven't been able to recreate it
but that is the Hopper Chunk border duplication bug
What you do is you place two hoppers runnin into one another on the edge of a junk border then you place an item?
Inside one of the hoppers and that item will bounce back and forth between the hoppers
Then what we have to do is travel miles off into the distance to unload all [of] the chunks then you come back in
reloading all of the chunks and in theory
Occasionally the item inside the hoppers will be duplicated, but as I say I don't know if it really works currently
But it definitely used to work back in the day this one is probably the only physical bug in today's video
But that is the redstone [buck] the redstone buck was introduced in the minecraft 2.0
Update and every time you powered some redstone a bug would be produced which meant that if you had
gigantic Redstone say hit sir
I did you get thousands upon thousands of these pouring out of the circuits really very quickly of course this could be
Manipulated to [create] some pretty ridiculous XP films using redstone clocks and large planes of Redstone
Which would also very quickly crash computers. [I] actually really like this thing is almost a shame [there] was an april fool
They this one is going to be a little bit tricky to explain
But I'm going to try my [best] to cover it for you
So what you have to do is you had to get yourself a splash potion of harming or some form of splash potion that would
kill a large number of mobs
then you would throw that splash potion quickly switch over to a looting 3 sword and when all of the mobs died
You would get the looting 3 effect even though you haven't used the salt now
This was really useful for things like Xp farms because if you had a bunch of skeletons in front of you
You can get much more bones than you were expecting and it was really good for getting large numbers of resources now
I'm not 100% certain if this is still in the game
But I'm fairly certain it got bad so we have it guys that runs up [to] this video on the awesome bugs that have been
removed from [Minecraft] and oh
Oh, there's still there's one more on the list
I think [it] says oh
Yeah, hera, brian. Yeah
they keep
They keep removing hera Brian Hera Brian has apparently been removed in the latest version of [Minecraft]
We are playing in Minecraft 1.7. So he should now be gone
