@MrOneWolfe I don't think so mate, I'm pretty sure that pistons have always reduced pumpkins to an entity block. That's why you can't make snowman factories. 8)
The terrain gen change altering your pine forest to a fully fledged Tiaga complete with snow and ice is one of the few times the biome transformation has been beneficial. Very nice to see. As you prove, will mean you can gather ice with only a bit of piston pushing to do.
Digging into redstone wiring can be a problem, so I've taken to laying redstone on melons wherever possible now so it is clear to see.
Really like your window at the end of the farm giving such a nice view.
@TheMindfiend Cheers TM, I usually do the same thing with wiring, I follow Etho's lead and use cobblestone, but the item elevator was a little tougher, because it needed a lot of space filling to mob proof it 8)
Why not do that thing where the water flows along then up a set of stairs (in some of ethoslabs videos) in your melon/pumpkin farm, this would allow you to put a farm where your current system is behind that wall. would be nice if he saw this >_< lol (would also have saved moving the ice tho its cool lol)
@Mg8086 Hahaha, it was more, "Why did I start this? I can stop now, I'm almost halfway. OMG THIS ISN'T WORTH THEM TIME!!!" OMG I FINISHED, NEVER AGAIN!!"
@GS37iN Cheers man 8) I'm pretty happy with the loyal community I have, they are always supportive, and I get to interact with them. It's always a fear (and Docm shared this fear) that I could become too big to be able to put in the time to reply to comments and PMs, staying small allows me to continue doing that, and I know Doc really misses that component of his channel, which is why he opened the Doc Box on his website.
@wm94zxy Ice doesn't need to remain covered, it will only melt if you place a lightsource (torch, glowstone, jack-o-lantern, redstone torch) close to it.
@salgurdar Alright, thanks for that =) I was having trouble moving some ice into my town and I thought they were melting as a result of the skylight. That's odd though, I don't recall having any other source of light near the ice.
You mentioned "redstone torch" as a lightsource. I'm curious now, is it possible to push ice through a bud-switch?
Just wondering... why do etho and docm like just about every single one of your videos? I'm not hating, because you do have enjoyable videos, but maan they're really dishin' out the support for you!
@TheTurbanat0r00 Well, my guess is they like my videos. I know Etho doesn't just throw likes around, and I'm pretty well aquainted with Docm, he tells me he likes my stuff, so, maybe that's all there is to it?
I wish youtubers would stop using such bass heavy music at sped up moments that is so much louder in volume than the levels of the video narration. I have to all of a sudden turn down my speakers as to not disturb everyone else in my house.. Please level your video's audio appropriately. Docm77 is a culprit of doing this also.
I was mildly disappointed when I read that they nerfed silk touch's ability to collect ice (so much for terraforming the Nether). Somehow, it didn't occur to me that you could transport lines of ice with pistons, so I ended up smacking myself on the forehead for not realizing it.
@WhiteOblivin I thought about that, but the push/pull piston "worm" requires a lot of wiring, it was just as easy to do the way I was doing it towards the end, I learned some useful stuff doing that 8)
@salgurdar That's such a silly decision imho! If he didn't want water in the nether he should have just made is so that any water that exist in the nether vaporizes. If the source is a bucket or an iceblock shouldn't matter. I would love to be able to place ice manually using Silk Touch. Placing a crafted snowblock in a water sourceblock (or pouring water onto crafted snowblocks) would also have been a fun feature I think. :)
Maybe for moving ice use a clock and place dirt so it's continuous
