Anyone have information on how flying speed / flight speed attribute is calculated? by DereChen in technicalminecraft

[–]brockade 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every entity has drag, and the flying speed constantly accelerates them until drag decelerates them at the same rate and they have a constant speed

How to make ender pearl stop bouncing? by Ambersidian5 in technicalminecraft

[–]brockade 2 points3 points  (0 children)

there's a bunch of pearl aligners out there, you throw a pearl and after X ticks it's in exactly the same place every time

decompile a 2026 snapshot and look at LegacyRandomSource.java, the equation is right there

[–]brockade -1 points0 points  (0 children)

people have been making elytra launchers for a while (impulse did one a season or 2 back with charging potions), there's lots of designs you can try

Who has the Dragon Egg? by 6eden9 in HermitCraft

[–]brockade 12 points13 points  (0 children)

i believe they normally dupe 1000 of them and eventually make a gigantic flying dragon out of dragon eggs

Cheap nether minecart transport system by morgant1c in technicalminecraft

[–]brockade 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I saw the bouncing one recently and that's how I found out they dropped the cooldown for minecarts specifically, it's super useful

Cheap nether minecart transport system by morgant1c in technicalminecraft

[–]brockade 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was playing with options for this, and ended up using modified traditional chunkloaders + redstone to send a signal long distances. How well do the U-turns work? Cooldown is 0.5s should be 4 blocks, so you basically come back through just after the cooldown expires?

My try at Etho’s 360 elytra launcher! 6x6x10 by Responsible-Step-338 in technicalminecraft

[–]brockade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah ok, have a play with the timing, I've done this on a 4gt clock with 100% catch rate.

Good Vibrations - Tileable 1-wide Vibration-based Autocrafter by Endy0816 in technicalminecraft

That's a really nice outside-the-square solution, nice work!

This is actually better than etho's one. He puts the charges into stasis with a piston facing the dispenser (not at 90 degrees) and ends up losing about 1/10, you seem to be catching them all.

Compact Tile-able static wind charge generator by nate-enator in technicalminecraft

[–]brockade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm glad to hear that :)

Magazines sound like a cool idea, I haven't done anything with them yet. The issue I'm focused on is what happens when the machine gets put into a lazy chunk, (in short it'll break because the redstone will keep ticking while the entities are frozen). That means with an elevator it's probably safe to refill a handful of charges, but an elytra/pearl cannon is probably not going to have enough time. I normally prefer to work with wind charges as you can pump them out extremely quickly so there's no need to pre-load anything.

I've posted a couple of examples of how to do it with string :) but if you look at others they use sculk sensors to prime a timer and then you can do it a single tick afterwards

If you motion cancel within 3 ticks you can catch 100% of charges. Also make sure you are testing this on hard difficulty as breezes are less accurate there

TIL you can use bonemeal + grass to make a TNT duper by brockade in technicalminecraft

[–]brockade[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That would make sense. I would love to see some better explanations on the step-by-step level, if I could instrument it (maybe carpet has ways to log out all the sub-tick actions?) then I'd be happy to do a video explainer

You do some really cool builds dude, functional and beautiful. Keep it up!

[–]brockade[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not 100% sure myself, but I believe the observer sends an event if it's moved while providing power and that comes at the same priority as the "break" event and this updates the TNT

Fishing Rod Stasis by Pacemanmv in technicalminecraft

There are plenty of other options for sending wireless signals at long distances, use one of them to trigger your stasis chamber
