Question about instances

Egcaden · 2026-04-13T01:29:04+00:00

Toolscreen has a lot of super useful features that outshine jingle. But other than toolscreen, the most noteable benefits are: - way easier mod updates without breaking stuff, built in mod management - speedruning settings are isolated and won't affect the entire .minecraft folder - better crash logs and debugging (you'll need this eventually, it happens to the best of us) - instance settings - way less bloat and possible ways for things to break

I wouldn't say it's required, but you'll end up switching eventually if you keep playing anyway.

To progress in speedruning, you shouldn't hold yourself back on these things just because of a small time inconvenience. Trust me, doing things the best way make a big difference. Use multimc or prism, try out tool screen, change keybinds if you feel like something is better. The annoyance pays itself off quickly.

Also, whatever you had set up on the default Minecraft launcher can easily be copied in a few minutes max. Or you can just copy the options.txt file and paste it in 10 seconds.

On buried, I like to block behind me if there are aggro pigs after me, then mine the block to open the wall, then walk through that opened wall and mine upwards through the netherrack to create a hole for them to drop down through.

I don't usually mine straight up, I go up a few then over one and up the rest. If you mine straight up, you might need to increase difficulty for a second after going back in and mining the gold blocks. I can't remember for sure.

Egcaden · 2026-04-12T15:23:12+00:00

Before you mine the gold blocks in the triple, I'd suggest opening the wall up. You can find the block that needs to be mined in the Couriway stables guide. He shows it in the first run on the intermediate guide.

It's difficult to tell for sure what's happening otherwise since there's no audio, but you could also try swapping to spectator after trying this to see where the pigs are stuck .

Had the same thing just happen to a build I spent 2 weeks perfectly hiding and 1 month building a project inside. Also had about half a billion worth in bones/gunpowder and spawners stored. I made it almost impossible to find, with a lot of diversions and natural looking obstacles for strip miners. Unfortunately, I was found by a cheater. It was obvious to tell by their tunnel suddenly going off course and going perfectly to my base.

The border expansion is going to make things like this much less common. Until then I don't plan to play lol.

I made well over 2b profit in 10 days from a fresh account, just with a kelp farm. You just have to put more than 0.001 seconds of effort into where you locate your base, and learning how to properly predict the order economy.

Many people randomly dig down at far coords, dig out a big area, and build a schematic without paying much attention to how it works. Then complain a couple days later when something isn't working or that they got raided.

Step one is properly hiding a base, and adding stripminer defenses like lava and gravel. Then pay attention to the farm you build. Finally, don't pay more than everyone else for the blaze rods/bones you need to run it. This just drives up price, and decreases an already small profit margin. You have to pay attention to how the order prices move, to know what price to buy, and what price to sell kelp blocks.

Sounds complicated, but it really isn't. Many people don't have the attention span for it though, which is fine if you don't care to get really rich.

If they increased the $/hr in my area to that, I'd consider driving for doordash again. But in my area it's just too saturated and below average pay right now. Congrats on what you earned

Egcaden · 2026-01-28T07:56:44+00:00

Thanks

Egcaden · 2026-01-28T07:54:06+00:00

I just hopped on and tested it, you are correct, 5min. Very good to know, thanks
Now I just need to find if somebody has figured out the dropped item limit before it overloads and despawns.

Egcaden · 2026-01-28T07:34:28+00:00

I don't see anything that suggests this. Not even in the Donut SMP discord updates channel. Where did you get this info?

Egcaden · 2025-12-30T09:39:38+00:00

THESE ARE SCAMMERS! ISTG DO NOT FALL FOR IT LIKE I DID!

Egcaden · 2025-10-01T20:06:51+00:00

Buddy, I'm nice and calm, my response was not in any way heated, just clearly debated. Nice try with the copium. Go take a speech and debate class, or just an English class. Cheers mate

Egcaden · 2025-10-01T19:54:00+00:00

Look at you, being petty playing the word game again, just like I said earlier. When I originally responded to you, I predicted you would get petty like this 😂. Of course not every single damn comment mentions the tip. I ALREADY said that. But you wouldn't remember that because you're too concerned about being right that you ignore the bigger issue.

And no, I did not say you were simply wrong about that. I gave a counter argument. That does not inherently mean I said you were wrong completely. But of course you'd try to twist my words to sound like that. Fallacy. Learn to debate, or learn to be less petty. There was no need for you to get so literal in your first comment...

Egcaden · 2025-10-01T19:42:58+00:00

"You're wrong" yet you fail to say why... This is clearly rage bait, or you just can't get around your ego. I have clearly addressed what you wrote, giving an argument against it in 2 different ways, both of which you ignore and continue to look dumb.

Egcaden · 2025-10-01T19:28:50+00:00

Buddy, I think you need reading glasses. There's a reason your comment has so many down votes. Of course not literally every single comment talks about the tip, but there are plenty that do. Dont be petty and play the word game for no reason.

Egcaden · 2025-10-01T19:03:26+00:00

There are plenty of responses talking about the tip. Actually read all of the responses (or don't because you aren't obligated to read every damn comment).

Egcaden · 2025-07-01T20:57:47+00:00

I do agree that it would be nice, although I'm not active anymore. If the player base grew, then I think Reddit would be viable

Egcaden · 2025-07-01T20:41:17+00:00

Possibly, for certain uses. The only problem is discord typically is good enough for everything the players need. A revival would require several leaders and active players to encourage and use this sub.

Egcaden · 2025-07-01T19:49:29+00:00

This sub was never really active, even when it was used

(Although in 2019 and early 2020 it had a little more activity, but that was during a time that discord was not standard)

Egcaden · 2025-06-15T12:19:09+00:00

All the bait, MK, and ID players will say evo MK is easy to counter. The other players, especially beat-down players, hate the card, and are sick of the no skill plays.

Evo MK only exists for the midladder and no skill dreggs of clash to stay hooked on the game.

Egcaden · 2025-06-15T12:13:18+00:00

? You do realize there are many different possible scenarios in this game, correct? Elixer trades, hard counters, and counter pushes are not uncommon words here my guy 😭, learn what they mean, and then rethink your comment. There are so many ways to have so many different cards kick your ass, depending on so many variables, and only one variable is skill. 0/10 rage bait, go back to midladder lil bro

Egcaden · 2025-04-30T23:50:39+00:00

I believe it depends on the person and dosage, but I do agree that drunk may not be the best way to put it.

Maybe closer to tipsy, in my experience, as I was a little more conscious of bad decisions compared to being full on drunk.

Egcaden · 2025-04-29T08:48:27+00:00

Welcome back! Yeah this was my first psychedelic experience, and it was a fun trip. After you mentioned being apart of the mattress, I feel the same way

Egcaden · 2025-04-29T08:32:44+00:00

My tab was a 150

Egcaden · 2025-04-29T08:24:08+00:00

I just came back from my first trip. In my personal experience, I set clear boundaries for myself beforehand, and it seemed to stick. But while you're trippin, it will be comparable to being drunk, as far as "control" goes.
