So we all know I'm a big fan of useless machines in Minecraft
I built a bunch of them in my time
And for me personally, they're always just hilariously fun to watch. But today today. We are going to taking it to the next level
We're going to building the most complex useless machine. I can possibly manage
Now this will stem from a fairly simple idea whenever I've built a useless machine in the past
The piston has only ever come out from one location. It could be a cool location
We've had really complex ones in the past, but it's only ever one location
There's one piston that can break the lever
I thought to myself
wouldn't it be really cool if there were loads of different ways that the piston could pop out so maybe there's one off in this
direction
one off in the other direction
One that pops up from the floor one that drops him from the ceiling one that comes down from over here, you know
There's just all sorts of different ways in which that lever can be broken, right?
I'm hoping so we've got one that comes in from this direction one that comes in from that direction
I guess we'll need a sticky piston underneath here that will retract this block to make way for that piston. So that's all fine
We have one that comes in from the top
However, I'm kind of thinking about that one because I want other ways that it gets destroyed. Maybe that one can be water
So that will drop water through
on top of it
so we'll move this piston out of the way and that will drop the water through so I'll be like water chamber up at the
Top there. There's got to be some other things that I can do here now. I'm hoping this works
So if I was to have a bit of water in this area here, yes, it does
So it automatically directs across into that hole that I've just created. Okay, that's definitely one that I need to do
This is got to be my new favorite way in which
I've just destroyed my button
This is gonna be so stupid, okay, I think we have eight different ways in which our lever can be destroyed
so I guess the first thing that we have to do is
we need to hook up the redstone output from the lever which is going to come out from this block here and then I guess
We need to run it straight into a randomizer, which is going to decide which of the eight outputs
We're actually going to get through this thing and I have to say it's looking pretty big
I mean,
This is one half of our randomizer output
so you can see we've got four outputs individual ones coming out there and then I'm just in the process of
Building up the other half
But for some reason I didn't expect this to be quite as massive as it's already become. I mean look at this thing
It looks like a computer turns out that isn't actually what was wrong
I was actually missing a handful of Pistons and repeaters and some of my timings are incorrect
So that's now all been fixed up and now we actually have a one-in-eight randomizer. That is functioning
So every single time I hit one of these buttons we get a 1 in 8 chance of any of these
Pistons firing and it's a completely equal chance between all of the Pistons, which is brilliant
So now we just have to start hooking up these
Outputs from this thing into the various circuits that we actually need to create in fact, you know
I think I'm going to create the circuits first and then we'll start wiring them into this thing, right?
So, let's see if part one is working. So we just need to move that other way
All right, that was pretty quick. So our pistons been pushed out and then we should have
We almost had the full retraction but okay, yeah because that's gonna take longer to retract
Hmm I mean, I guess we push this we just expand this out
We don't really have to worry about things being compact anymore. Considering we have that hanging out of the back
so if we were to
Set this maybe to four ticks that can be on six ticks. This is a redstone dust and then if we grab our lever
That should now do the trick. Yes. Okay, that's done it, right
We just need to do this block of traction down on the bottom now
I'm hoping that with this set up right here, which is an absolutely enormous setup. We should now have a
System of the function. So there we go
That's just fired it through and yes, I'll lever has been broken and the piston has retracted out the way. Okay, that's brilliant, right?
What I'm going to do is I'm basically going to copy what we have going on over here
Onto the other side because you have a second one on this side
Okay, so that's two done now next up
We have got some very simple ones we've got okay, so in the center here, there's actually going to be a sticky piston
So that's going to be a really really easy one because that's just going to push the block across which is instantly going to break
The lever so that would be nice and easy and I think I'm actually going to wire that and then this one
Into these two central bits of the randomizer and you know what now that I'm actually thinking about it
There's a few more that are ridiculously simple. I think there's another one down at the bottom here
yep, so that one oh
We could genuinely run into a problem there
Hmm
How could I I?
Mean, there's nothing I can really do with that
The reason I'm having to use a slime block is because this lever is going to power the block
So the system would actually break the lever
Before we get output through it, which isn't what we want. Actually we don't want it to break the lever too early
But I can't move these observers
Huh, I've thought something through and I have to say I think it's actually quite smart
so look, this is how it's going to be most of the time and
then when it retract it will do this and it will leave the
Observers up at the top and then I can also use those Pistons. I can power these Pistons
To send an update through the observer when I need the update to be sent through the observer for this circuit. I mean that is
I'm proud of myself for this one to say 10, 11 12 13 14 15
And then I guess thank and run straight in there
Okay, so that's that one hooked up. As far as I can tell we only have two left
Which is the truth based extender up at the top and then also our water Pistons?
which we have one piston down there that's going to be retracting that block to let the water out and then
This piston down here, which is going to allow the water to flow into that hole now. I'm curious to see if this works
That was almost a very pleasant surprise
So that goes all the way down
But then when it comes to the retraction, it just needs to be a tiny bit slower. I
Wonder if I just won the redstone in like that
I'd be confused here. So oh
That's extended in the wrong order yes, I've managed to pull it off so there we go
who if we flick the lever you can see our piston pops down it will break the lever and
Then it will all get retracted back up to the top
Okay, this is brilliant
And now we have so the lava has now been added in we've added in all of the lava
droppage and I've added in a circuit that she allows that lava to drop down and I've just been testing that out so that all
Seems to be working. We just need a repeater since two tix there
And then all we need to do is we need to connect up this redstone line here
I'm guessing into some form of pulse extender so that we actually get a decently long pulse on that one
So I'll quickly do that. And then this thing will actually be functioning
We will have built the most ridiculous useless machine. I think there's ever been seen in Minecraft now
I will say is the chances of this thing working first time every single element working
First time is probably about one in a billion
So there's so many different components this circuit by having actually tested out yet
Thought I don't think it's all going to come together coherently, but oh actually just looking at that lava there that reminds me
I actually need to put the water in place, which is going to be clearing out our lever
So now that I've actually hooked up our inputs into the system
let's give it a go now so flick on the lever and
Alright, so the first one that we got was water and I'm gonna make sure that that water hasn't actually just cleaned out a bunch
Of redstone because that would be one of the things that happened, okay
So that's that we flick the lever again. What's gonna happen this time? I
Mean there's a very very low chance of that happening, but it is believable. Let's try again
There's got to be some funny business going on here Shirley
What's going on having done a little bit more testing there doesn't seem to be an issue
Which is pretty crazy considering there's a 1 in
4096 chance of me getting that same thing four times in a row
Anyway, if we keep playing with this you can see that we get all sorts of different things going on
We've got anvils flying in if we believe her again. Oh
Okay, that block pushed it out this time Flicka again and this time all right that Pistons popped out and broken the lever. I
Can play with this thing all day?
This is an incredibly satisfying redstone contraption
It's just really fun to use look down comes the laughs
Let's try again. Oh, yeah. I'm just have we had everything so far so that Pistons just popped out I
Don't know. I can't think of what else we have. So we're getting lava again one thing
I don't think we've had this piste and dropping down just yet. I wonder if we can get that
See, okay that block
as I say this is one of those things that I am just I'm heavily enjoying I could I
Could honestly do this all day long. Maybe that means that I've got an incredibly boring life
But I just like playing with this sort of thing
Come on, it has to do the drop down at some point. I mean, that's probably one of my personal favourite ones
It's really it's taunting me here. I I haven't got it yet. I've tried this out probably about 50 times
Yes, there it is and oh
It's a little bit dangerous that's something that I hadn't really thought of but you know what that's also quite cool
So there we go. That is the most ridiculous useless machine
I could possibly build in Minecraft now
obviously the reason that these things are cool is that you do actually get a registan output through this thing if you wanted to use
This as some form of strange hidden entrance
Then you absolutely could you could just hook it up to a redstone door and that could be how you get in to your base
See look as soon as soon as I don't want it to happen
I've been waiting for that for ages and then there you get two in a row. That's just that how these things work
But anyway, I hope that you enjoyed this redstone video if you have visuals on that like button
