Hey everyone, welcome to the withering fact. Today's episode is number 32 in the date is February 17 2020 and I am Duds versus known to the rest of the internet and I am Jimbo also. Known as Jimbo slice 23, we are going to be going over more snapshot news in this episode. But before we get to that, what have you been up to this week Duds? I've been up to some fun things, and not so fun things at the same time. So fun things. I built. Eat a carrot, potato. Farm that 100%.
Originally my idea though, I did after I finished building the farm, I do have to say, I went back and I was watching some other guys carrot farms and they kind of use the exact same thing I did. So I was deaf. I thought I was first and being smart. I definitely wasn't. I think. Logical geek boy was one that I saw using. I think maybe raise Works where I put a bell behind a village. And then a bunch of Hopper Minecarts in front of them and then the trap door in front of that.
So the farming Village would go up to the guy whenever it's like social time and throw carrots at the farmer. I thought I was being so original and cool. It is a good idea. Yeah but nah they beat me to it so I'm going to give them credit here. I thought I was being awesome but no, they came up with that also. So but it's a really cool design. It does work. If they put their trap doors on top of the hopper Minecarts to keep the big thing is the Villager walks into the hopper.
Minecarts and starts bouncing around. Yeah so I put the trap door in front but everyone swallowed the carrots would get stuck on it. So he would just pick them back up and not throw them again. And what I went back and I watched them when I saw this that they were doing the same thing, but they're trap doors, were on top of the hopper mine
cards. So, they were the top Hopper - Car in the trapdoor, sharing a block and that kept the Villager from walking into it and left all the space for them to throw carrots and potatoes at the other villager. So when I saw that I went that's the way I had to do it. I'm being dumb. So I change that. But the farm was really cool in that. It's not a generic, everything's farmland and it's just one thing when I did is I tried to make it as As Sue's come on man.
Do seconds into the recording but I try to make it look as good as it could and then I brought in bees. So there's these flowers located everywhere and these bees are now flying around, pollinating with the flowers and the crops and villagers are moving around working. So it's a very Lively area. Which is really cool except I found the be radius from their nests or Hive or whatever is huge and they just like take off.
And I'm like, no, no, come back because where I have it is towards back, my base, there's just giant Ravine back there so that they like fly over the edge of my base and drop 30 blocks into this Ravine. I'm just like, well, I guess that guy is gonna coming back. Together. Find a flower. Yeah, worst part is there are no flowers down there because I have removed them so all the flowers are where they should be but they still go Ventura.
That way they do come back, they do fly all the way up back to the nest. But yeah. So it was, it was pretty cool, it was nice thinking I was coming up with my own Farm. A lot of camera account work though, because like I said, it's towards the end of the
season. So I basically spider webbing my way around my base, doing these ice bass, like the potato one, I could not, I was just going to have the potato enjoying the carrot one because I did the carrot one in the video and I was like it depict 80's exactly the same and you're not going to see that again. So I just in this video.
Well, the potato one, I couldn't connect to the carrot 1 so all the items just went into one-pass so I had Take the potato one, the opposite direction, and it hooks up to the iron farm. So, like carrots or potatoes,
and iron travel, the same path. Now, which is a weird giant loop around my base, because of the way, I've done it, be cool to x-ray That Base. I'm thinking about doing that for, like, the final episode of the Season, go into the camera account so you can just see how there's stuff everywhere. See, all inner workings and all the dirt. A work. Yeah, but on top of that, so I uploaded the video like Saturday night and set it up for release like at eight o'clock on Sunday morning.
Well at 7:30, Sunday morning, I got a notice saying that my video got copyright claimed. I was just like, how is that possible? The video is not even out yet. So what the heck, supposedly? My intro song is now a copyrighted song. The I noticed your video didn't have any music at the beginning of. Yeah. I was like maybe he'll go back and fix it but that that must have been why. That's what it was the video is already out. By the time I noticed the notification and it had already
had like seven or eight view. So I was like, you know what, I'm just going to go ahead and remove the intro music and it's like 10 seconds of quietness before I start talking. So I didn't See it as that big of a deal. But on the good news of that is iMessage the one and only decoy. And he's going to let me poke through his audio library and use some of his music for my intro. So really excited about that. Hopefully he doesn't copyright claim. Yeah, decoy don't copyright
clearing man. I'll have to stop calling you the great one if you do that. Yeah, but other than that, I've been playing with my animator. Some, if you guys are in the disc, Argh you saw at least one of the pictures I came up with, but yeah, a lot of fun stuff. Just goofiness all around. But wouldn't you what did you do this week? Well, this week was found tines day, so had a nice day out with
the family. We had like a group Valentine's Day thing going on. And it was fun yet chaotic not as romantic, but it was very entertaining with all the kids And it was like, there is six couples, we had our kids and we pretty much took over the restaurant, it was pretty chaotic. But it was a good time and we had we had a good time. Also me and my wife, we're still on the 7 Days to Die kick. Yeah. As I say every time I see you on Discord, it says you're playing Seven Days. Yeah, Mike.
He must be having a lot of fun with that. Yeah. Well we're actually getting to like to where we have everything we need and the Game is starting to like slow down, you know, it's like what do we do now?
Yeah, we're kind of getting to that point and I just wanted to make that point because Minecraft doesn't have that, you know what I mean, there's always there's always something you can build and do in Minecraft whether it's adventuring or, you know, building a farm or whatever 7 Days to Die, doesn't have that. But I was just, I just wanted to put that note out there. That once you get so far on 7 Days to Die, it kind of you lose interest.
Starting to a little bit. Yeah, I mean it's it's fun. I have to be at the beginning, you know, you get all your scales up and stuff. What once your skills up then then what I played it a little bit and I mean like just a couple hours before I realize it kind of wasn't the game for me but I see what you're talking about. The I watch a lot of people playing the game though. Like it's a fun game to watch. Somebody's dream.
Or do you to bond? I watched needs gaming when it comes to their 7 Days to Die series. It's always fun. But there's thing is when they get towards the end game as you call when you can't figure out what to do next. They're like, wow. How many weird dumb ways can we kill zombies? Mmm. So they're building these stupid traps. I'm waiting for someone to come up with a zombie. Catapult me? That that's going to be awesome. Yeah, yeah, that would be pretty
sweet. Might have to look into that but yeah, we're We're like we're on a server so it's not like I can build whatever I want. You know, when we got to look, look out for other members and stuff and it's a public public server people come on daily. So it's something my wife wanted to do join the server and stuff and we've been having a lot of fun but like I said you know, we're almost at the end now.
So not too, not too much. Sure how much I'll be playing that, especially with new Minecraft coming out and stuff. You're gonna have to get her in the Minecraft. Do husband and wife survival. Is I was telling her that I said, honey, get Minecraft now. Yeah, like, oh I don't know. It's I mean if you're going to play seven days to die, that's a good transition. Either way, you know, from Minecraft to that, or that to Minecraft. But yeah, that she's played it with me on the Xbox.
I'm like, yeah, give it a shot on the computer, it's way better. Yeah, I mean that's the way I was. I think I told us for a couple times, but wait, my friend came to me, like, hey, let's play Minecraft. I was like, that's the stupidest looking game I've ever seen. Of all time, I'm not playing Minecraft and sure enough. It's now my favorite game of all
time. So here I say that I love battlefield but I love playing with people I know I'm Battlefield and that's kind of gotten really hard so it's kind of like yeah. Yeah plus Minecraft you can just do so much. Hmm. Especially little more stuff they add. Yeah. And they had more stuff this week. They did add some more stuff this week. Should we go ahead and hop into the Use. Yeah, man. Look at that. That was a pro segment segue. Bam. I give you the alley-oop and you
slam dunk. Yeah, you did. It's like Pippen to Jordan. I wouldn't go especially the podcasts World. We're still, we're still tiny. Yeah, yeah. So this snapshot is 20 wo7, a and we're going to go through just like we did last week. These are the listed features of the snapshot Enderman can now pick up the new nether block. So, the nie Liam and I'm guessing the Warped work. Block, stuff like that in German will no longer pick up Netherrack though it which I
thought that was interesting. Of course, if you're on any kind of server, most of them all have in German griefing turned off. Anyways. There's no not going to happen. Yeah. Yeah. They gave Hoglund, some actual brains. I want to say the last Snapshot they were using like Pig AI. So they just kind of roamed around, but now they have their own thoughts of trying to kill you whenever they can jump.
I hear your pipes man. I think those are my pipes knocking and I was like holy cow it did a little bit earlier but hopefully they calm down a little bit. The next thing was they added penguins penguins are finally in the game not to be confused with zombie pig lens, which still haven't technically been entered. Its Tilda Zombie Pigmen. So we'll see zombie pig, lens of the later, the Wither can now be summoned using so soil. As long just like Soul Sand, nothing special there.
Let's see another, I blocks can be used to power the base of a beacon. Another, I ingots can be used to fuel. The beacon. Why you would ever want to waste precious another right on a beacon. Just I have no clue. Never known a reason for it. Yeah, and Penguins, and ha, glands are now required for the Monster Hunter, and monsters hunted. Achievements and advancements make sense. Yeah. So we got all the features that came out with a snapshot.
Well, I noticed the Crimson nether just got way more hostile. Yeah. And now like everything in the nether can kill you. Still, you know, you think he gets It a passive mob, but turn it around on, you know, and the case you think you're getting out but ga. Nope, I do.
I do like, like the pickling animations, how they pick up the item and look at it. I thought that was really cool touch, they throw you a little something and they pick it up and look at it, it really is. I wish they would do the thing, like dogs do where they tilt their head to the side. Yeah, they think about it. Yeah, yeah.
I mean, they're thinking about it, you know, but if they tilt their head it would definitely give them a little more thought and that people that maybe throw another villager at the same time. Hmm, we're like a snort. Yeah, yeah. But I'm I'm with you on the beacon thing that doesn't make sense. I mean it makes sense. It makes sense. It looks like a metal. Yeah. It's probably a precious metal which is what powers the beacon but it's Way too valuable you'll never you'll never get enough,
really? I bet you probably could. I'm probably take you in until now, Cub fan 135. Next season on hermitcraft will have another ibeacon out. If anyone could do it, I bet it's him. We're like nimble saying. Hmm. Yeah, he really goes at it, but I know, there's more news. We're going to talk about here. Soon. And that's all I got for now. But those updates. All right, well, let's hop into some listener comments.
Every time I start writing the show out on Sundays, I put a little post and Discord asking if anyone has anything they'd lock to talk about, whether it be pertaining to what we're going to talk about this week, we're not. I and this one kind of fits nicely in between because it's not really about the snapshot, but it's something we could talk a good deal about So, gentleman asked if we can talk about something about the design of resource packs and players
skins. And I'm let you go first. You but well, I usually stick with a vanilla texture. If I do any resource packs, I usually stick to that texture. I don't know, Dad. I think it's just to relate with the audience more. You know, if I build something they can see it how how it would be if they were to build it their self, they don't have to research. This texture pack to get something similar to what mine looks like. That's pretty much why I use
that kind of texture pack. I know the guys I was going to say I 100% agree with you if you're a channel that is building for people to see and kind of learn off you. I mean, that that's how I learned how to do most of my building is I watched false symmetry like crazy and she's it's obviously using this. Vanilla texture pack or what was that? One vanilla texture pack that everyone used for the longest time? Before they redid everything it was like, 32 by 32, I don't
know. But yeah, I watched false because she's using the same standard texture pack, basically, that I was using. So, it was really easy to learn from her. Now, if you go watch be double owes single player series, He's using his own custom texture pack and the way he builds really uses that texture pack to its full advantage, but I have no clue how to build like that. Uh-huh. And others at home, couldn't replicate it. Exactly.
That's true. But and then you see, like, I've watched YouTuber. It was logical geek boy, he had his Nether Bricks black. Yeah, I'm like man you know it. I like the idea looks really good all the builds but you know, I wasn't for that because I can't, you know, use that block. You can use it.
I can't, you know, it's not it's not fun for me because I can't use it. Well yeah, especially if you're playing on a server, if you're using a texture pack, what you build might look at really good to you, but some random first going to walk up and go. The heck is that? Especially on a server? Yeah, yeah. Now the Skins I when I made my skin I wanted to pick out some features on myself to put on my purse and just to have it
defined me a little bit. I had I have a mohawk on him because I did have a mohawk at the time. Yeah it's light is like a faux hawk, kind of deal. So, I wanted that and I haven't seen that much in a player, wanted to be a little different. You want to be a little unique and the Cheesy smile because I like to laugh and, you know, have a good time which is why I have the suit because I'm, you know, I'm business. But I like to have a like to have a little fun so my ties a little one done.
Yeah. That pretty much defines my character and yeah, I think it's good for you to make your character based on yourself. Yeah, that's kind of why I'm known for changing my skin a lot. Basically whatever season if it's Christmas I've got a Christmas skin on. If it's a new season on a survival multiplayer server, I generally change the skin for a new season if I'm doing some kind of themed episode like let's say the episode I finally got a tried it.
I think I dress my guy up like Aquaman from the comic books. Hmm there's I have like the Haribo 327 skins, I haven't used yet that are just stupid looking skins. Like I had this skit planned out, I have a Wandering Trader skin for my guy that I was going to do but literally the day I created that watering Trader skin Cub fan did like the exact same thing and I was like oh man that's cool because it shows Shows. I think a lot like cofán but it's like, I'm not going to do it now.
I'll save it for later. Yeah, that's another good thing. You can always change your skin to yeah, especially I think it's sitting on Bedrock. Now, you can customize your skins and stuff, but on Java. You can always go in and change your skin a little bit. If you want to be completely different person you can you know, or if you don't change it up a little bit, you can always go ahead and do that. And I always like to take Full advantage of the double layer.
Yeah, I see a lot of guys make skins and it's just on that single layer and everything looks really flat and stuff. I'm like, no take advantage of the fact, you got a double layer, you can make some 3D looking parts for your skin. Like, on my character, he's usually always wearing gloves because I just think the nub at the end, looks weird if you don't make loves. So, my gloves are 3D, part of my shirts, 3D the hairs, three, Dee Dee Dee.
I think I think it's just a hair on my mind, that's 3D. I did. I did make a detective outfit and I really miss the opportunity to make it 3D with my jacket. I made this skin, I change the skin of it, instead of the outside layer, a jacket over top, this suit that was a missed opportunity. I'd like to go fix that, eventually. Hang on. You guys are can probably hear some rough links. I'm noticing. I'm coughing a lot. This episode. So I'm digging in my desk drawer for a cough drop.
So, I'm sorry, I should have planned way ahead but it's okay. I got pipes banging. Yeah, it's a noisy episode from system. All right, but I think that's kind of it for jaemin's question. We're pretty simple when it comes to Resource packs. So, now's the part where we would normally run a ad for a Discord, but Carl has come up for For well, heck you've wrote a script for us, that's basically saying exactly what
I'm saying. So I'm going to go ahead and read it. You he's saying, usually at this point in the show, we play a disc or dad, but with us, reaching, half a stack of episodes where you're running a survey over the next few weeks to find out what you guys think of the show. The survey is going to help us keep the show fresh, and we will take all the feedback on board and use it to improve the show. Going forward. Here's car with more information about out how to get involved.
Hi everyone with a half stack of episodes under our belt. It's time to find out what you like and don't like about the show. So we can make the next Half Stack and more even better to do this. We have put together our 2020 survey that will run from now until the 15th of March at 10:00 p.m. GMT. Join me on episode 36 with Duds and Jimbo for the results, a link, to the survey is in the show notes. It's and is also linked in our
Discord server. Please get involved and let's take the withering effect to the next level. All right, thank you. Cara Lynn guys. Definitely go fill out the survey. We want you to be a part of the show as much as possible and doing stuff like joining the Discord voting for block of the week. Doing this survey really helps us out speaking of block in the week it's time for blocking the week. We need like a special block of the week sound. Yeah like a little--yeah or
something like that. We asked you guys in the Discord which of the following blocks should we discuss? squeak your choices were, jukebox Beacon and comparator and the winner is Jukebox congratulations. Jukebox The Jukebox was added in 1.01 weight 1.0 14. There you go. I've never seen him get up as high as the teens in a revision but to craft a jukebox.
Yeah, craft. The Jukebox is a diamond surrounded by any planks this includes the new nether logs, They the was it warped logs in the end? I Liam. No, not exactly. No, that's the floor. Okay. Yeah. But worked in the Crimson would yes that's it. Crimson was the other word I was looking for so you can craft them with that. The Jukebox actually has 12 States one for each of the music discs and an empty State. How I would improve the Jukebox
to me is pretty simple. I think this has been discussed by tons of people. I would add a hopper, You to it. I would love to be able to pull a music disc out and put a music disc in. Now I get maybe having a hopper drop into a, jukebox would be a little weird. So I thought it will a dispenser into a jukebox kind of makes sense, right? Because you would dispense a disc into the Jukebox and then have a hopper, pull it out.
And then I also thought if you attach a Leverage, The Jukebox you should be able to quote unquote. Quote, pause the song. Yeah. So like yeah Batman, that's how I would improve the Jukebox. You have any ideas to book that I do agree with all that? It's really good. The only only thing I would think about doing is maybe you can somehow record your own Minecraft music with the Jukebox and be able to play it on a
disk. I don't know if this is disc related or jukebox related but Maybe you can record stuff with the Jukebox and not just play things like for instance, decoy makes great music on Minecraft and throughout the game and maybe he can somehow record that with the Jukebox and be able to make a disc his very own disc. Or maybe you can have voices, you know, maybe you have a message and you give someone a disc and it's like a voice message.
You play through the Jukebox thought, that'd be pretty cool idea. Yeah, I mean it'd be cool to have like a blank disk and you put it in the Jukebox maybe with I do you'd have to have something to know to start recording sound or whatever, but that could be really cool if you could start kind of making your own Minecraft. Music using note blocks and have it saved on a disk, I'm pretty sure you could customize the disks using resource packs. Soooo. Yeah. Probably, you could always do that.
But yeah, I like your idea of being able to record things live. That's really cool. Yeah. So yeah, besides that. I don't, I don't play with the jukeboxes much. I mean they're pretty stationary, you know, you put them somewhere, you play your discs, there's really not much functionality to it, besides that. Be nice to see a little bit more. I don't think I've ever crafted a jukebox, I might have once or twice. Yeah, I've done it. You know, when I got it several times but not jukebox.
Yeah, I think it's when I get a parrot and I wanted to see him dance, that's probably the best part about the Jukebox. I missed a pair, it's dancing. I might have done that now that I think about it. All right, so should we go ahead and get into the chunk of what? We're going to talk about today. Hmm. Shoot. Alright guys. So we're doing this. Snapshot just like we did last week but with the new snapshot. So if you're wanting to follow along with us, we're on
Minecraft's main page. Link will be in the show notes. Let me get all set up here, okay? So we're going to talk about ha Glenn's first, the hog lens are the big aggressive beasts that live in the Crimson Force. They attack players on site so be careful that can easily knock you off the ledge. They do deal a decent amount of damage so that you could breed hog lens by feeding them
crimson. Guy do so at your own risk because I do attack you, they drop pork and sometimes leather, but Javis, you have to kill them. They're not bartering like piglets hog lines will be hunted by the penguins, which I think is really cool. But it's not like whenever a piglet sees a hog then it just immediately starts attacking it. They kind of from what I'm seeing on some videos that the Penguins wait.
Or maybe an outside or what you want, call it a Hoglund to get a little bit removed from the pack and then make sure they have enough numbers to kill the hog and really quick which I think is extremely smart AI. Yeah, I mean you think about how zombies work nowadays and there's just like the chase you around pathfinding exactly baby hog lens like to pretend they're
tough, which is true. But from what I saw, That they'll still attack you but they only do like half a heart of damage compared to like before that the adult version does. And then haugland hate the smell of warped fungi, but I want to put out there that just holding the Warped. Fungi doesn't work. You have to place it down. Yeah. So don't run around. Holding it thinking, oh, I'm safe because you're just gonna die. Hmm. So what do you like Jimbo about
the Hoglund? Well, the best part about the Hoglund is he has a really cool mohawk. Yeah, that's the best part it Goes clear down his back and it looks pretty cool. In other words, but cool is what I'm going to say. I like the fact that they're scared of the war Niall. Liam. I like mean I like how are ya? Isn't that an island isn't the grass? Yeah, they're not scared of that. No, they just won't.
Okay, I'm on it. Okay, okay, yeah, well, I like the fact that they have that they're scared of something Or, but I like that mechanic of each mob having something. A weakness. Pretty much. You can tell my earrings, getting smarter in the way, they're developing their new Mobs, it's no longer. How many ways can we kill you? It's like, what can you do to defend yourself now? Yeah, yeah. There's always a way out. Pretty much the whole cleanse. I'm one thing. I'm not to what I do.
Like about the mogollons is you can't tame them. I'd like to be able to ride one that went very cool. I was thinking maybe you could put a golden carrot on a fishing pole. I think I heard this somewhere put a carrot and a saddle. How you have a regular carrot in the Overworld have a golden carrot and they would be tamable with the golden carrot. I thought that would be pretty cool. That would be pretty cool. And like I said, once it can In the nether, even the hog lens
now can kill you. So that's it's very much a dangerous place still? Yeah, so that that sucks but I do like them out. The babies are adorable. I like how they give you only half a heart just to give him a little little bit of something and I think I think they're pretty cool. Overall. Yeah, for likes and dislikes, I kind of have the fact that there Dangerous as a like because I think it's really cool that it's kind of a new hostile mom. But as a dislike, I also have
the aggressiveness. I kind of felt like it would be a cool mob that would attack you if provoked. But if you left it alone, like you said, baby, I can tame it and write it. That would be really cool. Again, with the Mohawk, I think the design of the Hoglund looks really cool, the tusks and everything. Is pretty sweet. I'm happy with it. It feels kind of like a smaller another version of a ravager.
Yes, which is awesome. I like the fact that it's another way to get leather, especially considering. So I watched a lot of Ray works this week preparing for the podcast and he came up with a really cool haugland farm. So basically if you go above the nether and you're still in the Crimson Forest, And you put a ton of jack-o'-lanterns down.
So basically, the entire floor is light blocks, the only things, that'll spot up there are hog lens, so you can make a huglin farm really easy with just a platform way up in another and have a sweeping arm push these hagwons off and yummy just massive amounts of leather and pork chops and it's a good idea. Yeah, you only need four blocks of lava to cook the hot. When it's too so you could have cooked pork chops at the same time?
Wow, yeah. I did want to mention because you mentioned above the nether, you could still use that biome. Now I've wanted to mention that. These biomes are now like vertically. Yeah, like you can go up and down and go in a different biomes. Usually it's horizontal left or right but they're starting to put these biomes vertically. So it Gives you a little a
little I don't know. It gives you a little more faith in the cave update you know by then suddenly I didn't catch on the update last week is I didn't realize that it's like they're calling this the 3D biome effect or through degeneration. Yeah. So and I'm with you, I think this is leading to the cave update like this was a good test for it. Hmm. Let's see what else about the highlands.
I didn't like that. You couldn't carry the Warped fungi that you had to place it down and I didn't like the fact that I had to carry that anyways, because on top of having to carry like a gold set of armor now, to deal with penguins, and I have to carry this stupid, mushroom, to protect myself mogollons. Yeah, another thing was I, I felt it was a missed opportunity that they didn't drop their tusks or husks, I don't know. I don't have said it weird.
Now my brains just stopped. I think I wrote that in the notes but so one of the things is I listen to the spawn chunks on my patreon others, whatever. But I try not to listen to their podcast till after we recorded our podcast because I don't want to basically sound like I'm echoing everything they say. Except for this week, I listen to it because I was bored at work. I was like, I've got to have
something. So, I listened to this week and I'm glad I did because they mentioned the fact that haugland don't drop their tusks and they mentioned that it could be because they don't want real poaching to come from the game, which I kind of agree with you. You don't want that stuff happening in real life. But at the same time, they did mention you put 24, cows in a pan in the drop them through Lava on a regular basis of my crafting Yeah, I get it but I
don't get it at the same time. I think. Just think it would have been really cool, but yeah. Also pork chops. We already have pork chops. It be cool to have like Hagen steak or again, let me crap. Some food with the honey. I'm now harvesting from bees. Hmm. Yeah, I could see that. So jobs just seems, so, you know, what's the word I'm looking for? That's so 2012. Yeah, yeah, it's so old school. You know? We got pork chops already. Yeah.
I mean, I think everyone. I know now is it's either steak or golden carrots? Hmm. I feel like once I happy. Yeah. Once I have a gold Farm, I don't eat anything other than golden carrots. Yeah. That's pretty much what I go with. Sure happened to Penguins. Yeah, sure. So make sense, let's see here. Penguins are an aggressive Civ civilization that live in another.
They mostly hang around the Crimson Forest, but you might find some another waste to another waste is obviously the old Nether biome that we can come. So used to, they think players are at Target and we'll attack on site, but if you dress in gold armor, they will see you as a respectable or at least tolerable figure, they love gold. They're basically Gollum from Lord. The rings with gold or gold member from Austin Powers. I love gold, I love go.
Some people are just like, I know they did not quote, Austin Powers. I sure did. We did what you gonna do about it? Penguins are suspicious of strangers, and if they see you opening a chest or mining a block of gold, there are assume you're stealing and will attack. I'm not a big fan of this but I am at the same time because it kind of makes rating their little village hard, but the whole mining a block of gold, are they going to have it just blocks of gold sitting out?
Yeah, that's what I was wondering. Why where would you mind blocks of gold? I've never seen code even in the snapshots, you know, it doesn't feel like they had to set it down to mine it but this also brings me to the fact that with quote unquote a A cave update may be coming wink. Wink nod, nod, punch punch. I think they should take gold out of the Overworld and put it in the nether like they did chords.
Quartz wasn't in the Overworld, but I think gold should be in the nether to maybe keep it in the Mesa and that's it. Yeah. Because what, you might need some above ground. That's true. Eventually, I mean, it's not hard to get to the nether, you know, me get you gets, it might be easier to go to the nether to get gold in the Mesa. Yeah, because you have to find a Mesa once you find a Mesa Gold's pretty abundant, but I do like that. I like that idea.
I mean yeah. Maybe believe it in the Overworld but at it, as a block to mine and another so then you would have courts gold another, right? So yeah, that's a cool combination or maybe because there's no gold in the nether. That's why they're so fond of it, you know. Oh, good point. That's the storyline of it. Yeah, that adds to some lore. Yeah, piglets obviously love gold and get very distracted by gold items. Think we talked about You can throw gold down in front of them.
They pick it up and they stare at it. Mmm walk around. So adorable. Yeah. That's my favorite part. Yeah, gold ingots, our currency. So when you throw a golden ingot at them, they'll throw you a various selection of goods will talk about some farming aspects of that here in a second Pigman. Sometimes, get hungry and they'll hunt the hog lens for food. We talked about this a little
bit. It. I think somebody broke it down and said, it's not really a hunger level, it's a IIA passing thing or maybe that was just a lucky guess by that person. Based on the results, let's see. Penguins prefer to hunt and fighting groups. And when a fight is happening, everybody wants to join in. Basically just like punching a Zombie Pigman. Pigment in the nether, they're all hunt you down. Hmm. Penguins that somehow ended up in the Overworld boot become zombiefied really quickly.
I kind of felt like, that's that's sucky. But yeah, your glands are creeped out by Soul fire and zombified Penguins. So they run away whenever possible. That's really cool with the fact that humans are scared of blue fire. Hmm. Aw, yeah. They're not from that biome. Yeah, makes sense. That's, that's very true. Didn't think about that more lore? Yeah. Yeah, it's going on with some more loan with their skeletons are a historic enemy of piglets and will attack on site, which I
think is really cool. I thought this would have some farming aspects but it doesn't unless you really want cold and Bones. Yeah. It didn't seem like they dropped the heads even with eluding sword in their hand at think. It's got to be player a player kill and like the hog lines baby penguins are not as dangerous but they can be mischievous. I meant Taking as when you're not looking at them, they try to punch you in the back. It says they like to play with baby hog lens.
And I haven't watched a video where they caught that on camera. Yet they caught him just kind of like standing around each other. Yeah, they kind of run around a little bit, but they don't seem to be like in sync. Like baby villagers will play with each other. Yeah, that's, that's all I noticed. Be cool to have a little bit of a animation involved in it.
Yeah. So for my likes and dislikes, I like the fact that it gives another purpose for gold other than what I would use it for which is just golden carrots. And basically a beacon block, if I was low on my iron, I like how the bartering system includes courts flowers. I think having many ways to get courts as an awesome thing, especially for multiplayer servers. I thought the hunting party Idea was really cool and I can't wait to like just stumble upon that happening in game.
I like how wither skeletons have an enemy now and can be attacked. And I like how they're trying to make baby versions of the adults different. So how it's it's not like baby zombies where it's basically the exact same thing, but faster. Hmm, it seems like it. Yeah. See. Like they're trying to be a little different. The dislikes are the fact that you have to be wearing the gold armor for them to attack you. I get I said I like that.
It gives the use for gold. But again having to carry an extra set of armor on me, just kind of sucks especially if you have another right, because if you have another right, you had to build the nether. I armor with the gold because you have to make another right with gold. So I think that should kind of Offset piglet. Yeah yeah. You think they'd be okay with that type of armor because it does have gold involved. But yeah, I never noticed that and then the piglet is becoming
zombify in the Overworld sake. I'm so used to Zombie Pigmen. I don't want moral. Mmm. Yeah, be nice to bring one to the Overworld. Yeah, to me. But whatever you. What do you like and dislike? Well, again, I love the animations. Animations are the best. Part. I think about the Penguins how you know that they look and think about contemplate what they're holding in their hand. I just think it's so cool. I like how it makes up City and of course renewable and other
items as well. I mean the obsidian and quartz is what I was more focused on I know flint and gravel also are now renewable. Yeah, I've upped a little bartering sheet when we get done doing the likes and dislikes. Break down. What exactly a barter for. Okay, like that. So if people are wondering, got you a rundown. Yeah. And it didn't read anything like that down but the obsidian Court. I know are are harder for them to barter with you're not going to get as many of those.
But yeah, it's cool to know that you can get that if you were to make a farm of some sort. And I love the fact that they fight the wither skeletons, like you said, it gives them a little lower. Or yeah, and they're scared of the Pigman. So again, it goes with the whole how it gives them a weakness, you know, strength in a week, it's not really a strength, the wither skeletons will fight back. The skeletons aren't scared of the pigment or the Penguins, but I just think that's a really
cool addition. My dislikes. Or I do like how they're distracted by the gold. I think it goes along with the animations though. Yeah, I did write that down. The dislikes are like you said, I got to wear gold now, it's only one piece of armor. You have to wear but IQ again, you got to carry armor round and you can't really keep it in a chest because they don't want you to get in the chest. Whether you're getting gold out or what, you know, they don't want you getting a chest.
And that's another thing I have to be careful where I put the Chest. Yeah, I put any about that and I'm wondering, will they attack you if you place an ender chest down? What about a shocker box? Do they consider a show per box of chest? Are they going to ask you for that? I did think about that but I never didn't write that down but yeah that's that's another point. Is it just regular chest? What about the the the new chest? What are they? The fisherman? Oh, barrels.
Barrels. Yeah, those two. So that's something I didn't hear from anyone about you. Think someone would have brought that up. But yeah that's that's pretty much it though. I'm with you with the the zombiefied Penguins in the Overworld, not too fond of that but I guess it gives it another functionality but I'm never going to want pigment in the Overworld. So probably not going to bring
the Penguins over. Yeah, so let's go ahead and jump into a farming, these piglets because that's the big thing. I loved watching it, I put a link in the show notes about Ray's works. Like I said, I watched a lot of his stuff this week and I felt thought he did a really good job. Breaking down some of the cool stuff you can do with the piglets one is. So you throw a gold ingot at the Pigman or Pig Lynn. I should say the penguin will then throw you a random item.
It As in its inventory, these random items they are broken into four sections and they're weighted which means basically what percentage of a chance you're going to get this item. So the what's call it super common items or about 10% chance you're going to get this item. Include soulsand red mushroom Brown mushroom Flint rotten for a flesh. Crimson fungi. And another brick don't want any of that. Junk you who wants rotten flesh? Yeah, gee the 5% drop or the third.
Highest chance would be a shroom light fire charge gravel raw, pork, chop leather, or warped, fungi to me. That's a lot better. I like the idea of the shroom light, I think I would use that more than I would glowstone. In though. I think it's kind of a lost texture at the same time gravels, always a great thing to get especially if you don't live in a gravel biome like I did this season. Yeah, helps with concrete building, blocks, same thing with leather.
I was always low on leather this season, so the more ways to get leather, the better. Hmm. The second rarest items you can get or a literal 2% chance of them dropping is glowstone dust, magma cream and ender pearl. I also forgot to mention that they will drop multiple quantities. Like gravel was they would drop 11:56 who quantities or leather they drop to 27, Flint 328, most things are 124 it. Except for a shroom light will
always be one. Buyer charge would always be 1 and then these coming up the rarest of the rare. You one percent chance of dropping warped. My Liam, another quartz flower and obsidian the work. My Liam is a one quantity. The obsidian is a one quantity and the nether quartz flower is a 12-4 quantity y work. My Liam is in there, I don't know. New, never understand it. Yeah, Tonight Liam's not. So it's kind of like and why is it weighted so heavy?
Does that saying like the Warped Force are going to be a rare Forest? Yeah. And if they're so like they don't go to the ward Force at all. Why do they, why are they carrying around the warp 9? Liam know how they would get some, maybe it's rare to them. So that's why they feel like they have to give it to us with obsidian or The courts. Yeah, maybe a little more Lord, I don't know. So the farm-raised Works came up with, was he had these penguins
at the above the nether? I don't think you had to be above another. It's just why his farm was working. They would be a top this trap shoot, they would spit out a piece of gold. The piglet would obviously drop an item and then he would drop the Pigman where they would Splat on a hopper and then, The pig living would immediately drop the gold ingot, you just gave them. Hmm, so he would take the item, the piglet, just Bartered put that a sorting system.
Take the gold ingot cyclic, back up to the top. Where the Pigman was spit out? Another gold ingot to another Pig. Latin have the piglet drop another item, and then drop the Piglet and kill him again. Take that same gold ingot. Go up to the top. It just kinda glycol. Yeah, I think this is a bug though. I think you'll find in a final release, that once you kill a piglet, they're not going to drop that gold ingot. It's just too easy of a hack.
But I immediately when I heard about the system thought about well this is just an add-on to a gold farm. So you build a normal donut Goldfarb except you kind of have to be picky or what blocks you build with. So it come to find out Penguins can't spawn on magma blocks so basically you can do the donut ring and magma blocks and only zombie pig lens will spawn. So you would have the normal
gold farm. And then what you can do is filter out the gold ingots and instead of like saving the gold ingots, you can push them into a piggelin zombie holding cell, spit them at the Penguins and the Penguins will just constantly drop items like the other arm ring. You don't have to worry about killing the pig lens. Because I mean they're going to drop by hours. Anyways, you're costly trading gold ingots. I think that's a very cool farm idea.
Yeah, it's like having your cake and eating it too. Yeah. Especially the nether quartz, I granted, you're going to have to run that farm a lot to get a bunch of nether quartz, but the fact that we have villagers that trade the block. So if you're wanting to build, you can get a lot of nether quartz blocks quickly, and now that you have no other work in other courts flowers. The red Stoners use a lot of nether quartz for the Redstone components. Have a way to renew courts that
way. I remember early in the season, when I was giving away a stroke or boxes with random prizes in it and the embassy. So I shop area, I had a full show core box of nether quartz or as one of the giveaway items and then I went no, I'm going to need that. So I just kept in and sure enough it lasted all season. I think I'm down to Seven or eight Stacks left?
Well yes I was thinking about the whole farming, the piglets you know the bartering Farm. What if they made it kind of like the villagers where if you hit them, like you killing them, which is what you're doing? Well, you're kind of dropping them. I don't know if that'd be the same thing but they would, they would wouldn't trade. You could throw them gold and they just take it at that point is true. Like maybe you can't kill them or Maybe dropping hymns. Okay, I've seen you can do that
with villagers. They wouldn't see it as a kill it would see as like an accident. Yeah. Right. You punch one of them. They just get mad. And never take your gold and snort at you, that's it. Yeah, yeah. I'll get this back. Yeah, that's an awesome idea. I really like that idea. Hmm. But aren't I think that's kind of it for the show. Hmm. Do you have anything you want to add? Uh, no, no. Nothing like thick up.
I will put it in. Remember guys, we have a survey, please go do that survey for us, we really appreciate that part. But yeah, Jimbo reaches out.
