something funny are their guide on quest because in thinking of making a simple one and tell tips tricks and farms to help them
Something like this? Not final design jus wanna make sure im going in the right direction
Yes
If they didn't mess with the timing it should be a few minutes
Odd
Ive got no torches around
Oh no
I think i know why
So
Yknow how the height limit changed?
..and some things were pushed up
I think maybe the ice height got pushed up
Wow there is a really annoying bug with signs that removes all keyboard character input , forcing you to restart the game. The Cause Placing or editing a Sign
Righto ill try that and see if it works
Shpuld
Make sure to do 192 jic
I think that could be the exact height
But yeah thats likely why
I know i did mine at 200 to be safe
It at clouds
Why would they change it?
Height limit
It was from 1.18
Some things got pushed upwards due to increase in world size
It may work a little lower
Like clouds, as an example
wut
Building up to height limit, just for ice is pretty crazy lol
Got it so no one will respond
yeah thats a bot that sent that message fyi
Its in every channel
I spent 60+ hours afking in the last days
I mean ice farm or manual place a water elevator?
Also thank you whichever graceful person deleted that~
Ah yes it instantly works now
I probably should have a bought a silk touch pick with me up
Guess i gotta go down and get one
I kinda wish you could TP to any shop (village) you’ve placed
Omg they really need to to change that World save starting.... in red letters and reword The Is extremely annoying World Lag Starting...
Its almost like a world save normally pauses your game
It literally makes it almost impossible to do anything.
And it happens every 5 minutes , right when you join, the longest is 10
I dont Understand why it would lag to take a snapshot of the world.
Because it has to download a 240 by 240 by 394 block world
Who would have guessed, that takes a long time
Especially when there is a lot of entities
But, It only needs to grab the blocks that you're in that you change not the whole entire world
That doesn't explain why it acts like it's running from a disk
The pigmen next to you, your inventory, your player state, your health, everything
Its almost like it doesnt happen when you're nearby a high end farm
The generators also act like entities
Imagine ur timer always being the same numb
Wouldn't that happen if it didn't save everything
The timer is based on the system clock so that should only be a value
And that still has to be saved
Only once
But that doesn't make any sense, For trees and generators that literally could just simply have an initial start value and go by the clock
And there is a lot of easy ways to bypass that
And you are also forgetting how boosts work
The server clock
They dont subtract the time
Pretty much predetermined
They make time faster
No it's a simple calculation
Its not as simple as you think
Shush
Please : )
Tho
The optimizer does the same thing
No it doesnt
It doesnt apply a 2x boost
It makes the time tick down 2 times faster
All it does is take the time and cut it in half
How can it be the same thing
There is a masisve difference
Doesnt do that
No it doesn't?
It speeds time up
Not halves the time
Every second becomes 2 when a boost is active
The rank boost however subtracts 10% off the base timer
Does not speed up the clock or the ticks, Because it'll work when you're not even logged in
It still does
Because they don't depend on u
Time isn't real
Does not update in real-time Calculates when you look at it
It probably checks once every tick
We are not going into quantum physics
Why not? :p
I mean i happily will
U talk I listen
But mimi brain will combust
Rude
That was my line
Yoink
Mreow
Mow
Meow
When something's running in RAM, Taking a snapshot should not lag anything.
Bit it doesnt take a snapshot
Here we go again
You dont know how the server saves quite clearly, its not as simple as "oh look everything is like this state, lets copy"
Especially since the whole entire world size could not be even close to 300MB
With all the custom stuff
Lags gonna happen no matter what tho
It still takes time
It just a normal thing
Imagine all the furniture I have around
It not a bad thing for lag
I mean I do understand how annoying it is but come on
They're just not being very efficient at the saving technique.
Fr
Yeah, Regular Minecraft servers save instantaneously
Auto save happened in every single game
Nope
And it does lag it sometimes
Regular minecraft servers just doesnt save as often, and thus is more prone in losing data
Yeah
Just play vanila for not even 20 mins
And you'll feel it
Assuming auto save is on
I’ve die due to lag so many times especially trying to build to height limit
Its inevitable basically
Because they cant allow you to do much while its saving
Hence all the save dupe bugs java has
The simple crash while its saving
It doesn’t like you fighting while it trying to save either lol
Die from a spider during the lag lol
Its because its never going to be instantaneous anymore
With how big games are getting
300 mb may not seem like a lot, but thats almost a billion bits im pretty sure
It's too many thats for sure
Yeah
Hence why 1.19 maintence lasted 3 days
Exactly.
Dang 3 days?
It lags
Yeah?
i have plan for making few farms in mc.
Over 2.4 billion bits
Most memory in servers can transfer fast than 100 trillion bits per second, my ssd copies faster than that
i need around 70 double chest worth porkchop
My download speed is 1000 mega bits per second
I think the bottle neck is they may be using a translator for java minecraft and that would explain the wait time.
Why so much??
I should probably add that this isnt one server
This is one of probably a thousand
@compact lark does the wait time in java as long as bedrock? I think its really a possibility its converting the data
Each indivudally running
Wait time?
Of for gens
Well as far as im aware, its stored in the nbt of the block itself which can store up to 2.14bill iirc
For both versions
Bedrock uses a different system to store data, its compressed into leveldb using zlib , the chunks are stored differently 32 bit words java is 64 bit longs using compaction. Theres also a lot of other differences.
Doesnt change the fact that the server is running thousands of other servers anyways
And that takes time to do, correct?
Which its during that time which the save causes lag
Hell it probably intentionally causes ut
To prevent any save corruption
Yep thats the only explanation honestly
That I can think of
If they copied to memory first before saving and/or converting instead of doing it live or to disk it wouldn't cause us lag through.
And it would probably save them a lot of strain on the server
Technically like a shadow copy that gets saved.
Having it save live while we're playing it has more potential for corruption.
And explains why blocks reappear while they're being broken
Why spawners changed to only spawn when near now droppers dont work
It happened a while ago, hostile mobs despawn when over 128 blocks away
Its to save on server memory namely for people stuck on clearing the swamp island (there is like 20 spawners there which causes a lot of lag)
There are easy work arounds so its fine
How i get my dropper from world hight to bottom to work then
Co op , one person needs to be in range
Rly coop thats not a good work around
Its the only way to get it to work at this time
So because most players are stuck at swamp it means they ruin endgame droppers for others
but we now have a better xp method so...
Which is?
Afk, pigman lvl 50
They drop xp when Aggravated, which means they need to see you.
Twenty lvl 50 pigman spawners is 6 times faster than my wither skeletons dropper with smite 20
Do u need to kill them
No, you save so many diamonds, need to get wither roses, have the Wither kill chickens
Thank for the tip just built a mountain for new dropper just to find spawners are to far
The simplest build, is to have a 5by2 hole up 127 blocks with up to two, 8 by 5 water streams. Fits 40 pigman on each side.
Thats 400 lvls in 30 mins, approximately
Use soul sand and hoppers under to collect An unlimited amount of gold
Place wither roses on them, If you don't have wither roses you have to put 3 cactus on the outer and is 2.5 times slower
What’s the max level for an enchantment?
Thats bigger than I thought
So if you put looting 20 you can't add anymore
Efficiency 5 and fortune 15 is maxed out.
Or instead of saying this. You send them the YouTube link
Way easier
Yeah but who wants to spend that much time building that big of a farm. Unless you're trying to make a million enchanted tools
That's a huge investment
I'm just giving the basic concept
The YouTube video does not show that it shows a huge structure unless you have a different video.
I thought fortune doesn’t do much at a higher level?
It'll give you 3 items per
A level 15 will be, 50% gives 3 the rest give 2
They lose some of their health from the fall damage and will die faster from the wither rose
Then spawn quicker
Lvl 50 they drop more xp and don't die before giving xp
The YouTube video shows the basic structure of what the farm is. Your words show nothing because they are words
@gritty mango
Y tag
Because I have question
Ask question directly when tagging is faster
Well its what the easiest way to get 100 levels
Why do you need 100? If its for level 5 items just use wood stuff
Its 70 levels needed
i hate the game rn its lagging so much crashing the server
getting disconectted so much
im goona be oof the game for around a month
Likely due to you having all mob spawners placed
stop.
why is not letting me go to the skyblock hub ?
Whats it saying?
@west warren you have any ideas?
Never heard of this one before
||i didnt ping @modern hemlock :p||
Most likely bcs you can’t connect to a game
Xavi here's an idea, ban this guy and you won't be having to deal with any1 in this chat ever again :p
Hahaha
i do not come to the chat, the chat comes to me
But no might be that there are no servers open and that there are connectivity issue or a specific game is acting up
same here cant go to the hub either
Hopefully it fixes itself soon
What’s the code it gives you? Bungeecord04-0000 for example
Xavi, maybe forward it breifly if you can. As it def is a big issue
it isnt giving one
If it’s only two I’d rather not yet
yeah
but if he closes his eyes-
my coop duo cant go to the hub either
Im kinda stuck so i cant
test what
I’m walking through my front door will have a look in a bit
Going to sb hub
shore
If its for everyone, def a very bad issue
alr imma see
ugh
downloading packs
nope
its they issue
i got into the hub
@west warren @compact lark
Weird
Happening with me :/
What’s your ign?
Yes
What’s going on?
this dude can't acess sb hub
i tested it out already
Could be a console thing?
Xavi is handling it
It’s a skill issue
most likely but xavi will check it anyway
also hey Shush
haven't seen u in a while
oh, cute pfp
me neither tbh
Yea I’ve just had lots of other things to do besides sit and talk about a game I don’t play
Thx
Woah @west warren did a #📰︱changelog
that's more rare than artic lights
I usually don't post mine since they're all fairly smoll
Yus
Fair for that
do it, who cares
But any is good~
Like added barriers to the tropical map so you cant swim out, added some here and there so you can't camp in spaces, added leaves so you can't get stuck anywhere, recoloured the mayan banners, fixed some map inconsistencies
Yea cottage core or it will be fairy core
Fair, now add end to skyblock
nooo
But since this was a parkour fix to a specific map thought to let people know since well they couldn't get the modifiers previously
He means the end
how about you add a new dimension perhaps
She knows~
Aether
I forgot about copper skyblock is missing so many blocks
bruh
ME WANT MUD
Mud , I want to get dirty
The walking sound 
- squelch squelch *
not it
Honestly I’d be glad for a smallish update that fixes or adds stuff that should be there
But yeah a general access to blocks would be a kewl update
You got raw iron blocks, raw Gold blocks, blue ice, chiseled book shelfs, basalt, smooth basalt and polished basalt.
7
bamboo
And new furniture
huh
They didn't have room for more than 7
I mean workstations
yes
Yeah but I don't consider them blocks
why is everyone cool on rn
Talking about new stuff that we have
Can you make a fletching table
I guess crafting table ain't a block
Ja
you can make a smithing table i think
I don't think we were able to make barrels before either
im working on my chest room and i found out my world isnt centered
its 2 blocks off
so either i destroy about 5k blocks and rebuild
or i just deal with it

we can only get half of those items
No you can get
You just have to craft a soul campfire and break it to get soul soil
yeah
yeah i know
soul soil makes basalt farms
but what about raw iron and gold and chiseled shelf
the bookshelves are possible
WHAT
its the iron and gold
Yup you can
HOW
Mine...
Waitwhat
Just mine iy
We can get basalt here wow
yep
i thought it did
Lava + soul soil + blue ice
yeah i thought so
Wowzers
Nope you can actually put one in the middle and make a circular
smh i didnt know it was added even though it was easily gotten
Around blue ice
wait
so is it just expensive
i know the farm requirements just never seen it
nvm its lava stream
not source
its actually easy asf to make wth
Make a 3 by 3 hole surrounded by blue ice , soul soil below in the middle then put lava in the center
yeah i seen a few methods it looks easy
Get 8 basalt per generation
I dont think ive placed or even seen a painting in what feels like 7 years or more
ðŸ˜
Good gods
Think these are new
I think the last time I did was to hide a secret base behind it on my single player world when I was playing on the 360
Wow you can craft a lead
This on Cubecraft?
skyblock offline again?
i think so
Yes
yoyoyoyo
Oh dope
Can someone ping me here, when skyblock will be online, please?
how long will it be down?
🤷
Yeah
Righto time to start watching it
Yay!
is skyblock up again?
nah
Is there any easy way i can finish the Golden spoils quest ?
it was down for like 15 min ago
Nah, it's down from like 2 hours?
skyblock is still down
on java it's down
I've got, but played for like 5 mins
@jolly hemlock nice autohotkey logo
Heya xavi
I haven’t played skyblock in a couple weeks and my sugarcane still isn’t fully grown…
I waited for 2h and it was offline, idk now
I'll check now because I'm a java player
Bedrock is online
sadge
Probably found a breaking bug and is fixing
Maybe a visual bug?
They take like 18 hours to grow per stem dont they
Its probably less even i cant remember
Def aint more than a day
why is the skyblocks server down
yes
Been down for a while
Only starts growing when you are online in the island, doesnt matter the time, your cane/cactus will only grow once if you only log once
Oh i didnt realise that was with cane too
Shoulds known since it grows the same way as cactus lol
I need mud
dont we all
Deep slate Cobblestone
prayers
Can't build my mud house without mud
LMAO fr tho
Dirt tries to turn into mud , skyblock must be to dry
Sheesh
No puedes dar objetos a otros jugadores en skyblock
damn xelia speeaks espanòl
is skyblock down
Holaaa
Hola
anyone have a time the skyblock server will be back online ?
Nope sorry
Boutta cry
Why?
Thats fine
I joined this server just to see if I was the only one lol
same
Oh no no. Its java only though
I see I see
Itll probably be up tomorrow at some point most likely
Or today if your already in the morning like me
anyone on bedrock and seeing the game freezes from time to time, it seems to be in the same places whilst i am either running or breaking generators at same places. Wondering whether it is a know glitch if things are placed together
Yo
Looking for another friend for my skyblock island to grind with, currently at iron ore generator
Haven't heard that issue from anyone no
I will but let’s hop on at the same time u sent that text tomorrow
Seems everytime I run up stairs as well
Hey rippo
Any chance its your device?
How much time you took to fill the void under the surface where you have your beacons?
I havent filled it
Oh
I have a full layer at y 69 that's all
My beacons are floating at the bottom of the world
what's going on with cubecraft? I've been kicked like 10 times now
Make sure your device isn't crashing and your WiFi is fine
wifi is steady and nothing's crashing on my switch
And whats the message say?
Switch
^
Its a thing with bedrock edition and i hate it
something like the server that i was on crashed and me being put on a fallback server
Oh like that
Send the error code in #💌︱team・help and ask about it there then
That error code will help the staff find the problem if its repeating
aight lemme see if i can recreate it
Just pull up your chat
Maybe they left or smth
Ah
nah, the last just kicked me out of the server entirely
Go ahead and mimisie mc
That will just close the server no?
No it doesn't close the server
Takes you out of server = kicks
Nah i have autism, clearly dont know what youre talking ab :p
Your doing a premiere uwu
"Your math cant prove"
alright, finally got kicked
Oh?
Hell, as in the second half of the name
Well not wrong
You know what to do now~
What's my nickname?
That other dude
Dud worked
Is funny to use in a 1 on 1 convo
-_-
Am i wrong?
No but still
:p
@pale sierra go into sb. Wait about 5 mins then do /ping
i did that and it kicked me out of cubecraft
what does it do?
Tells you your ping
Hey guys. Does anyone know why SkyBlock is not available?
Java sb is in maintenance
Takes stuff like your connection, distance from server and stuff like that which totals as your ping
For how long?
No clue
Thats why then
how
my wifi isn't really the problem since in other games its fine
^
Then your pings high somehow
@pale sierra on your switch. Open the Internet and type in Internet speed test to Google. Run it and tell me what download speed you get
Download Speed doesn't always effect ping
Correct. Its upload too and location from server. But if you look up I asked location
Wouldn't be accurate through switch settings no
I get 2 ms ping but for me US cubecraft gives me 70 to 75 ms ping
Server location
can you even access the internet on a switch?
US
You dont understand. Cubecraft servers run in a different place than other servers
Hence server location
It needs to ping between you, your provider and the external server
North Amazon, lol America
Aka there are 3 ping locations, 2 that stay the same and 1 variable
kek
Believe or not. America is big
Yes...
But also if the server's busy it'll also be a really High ping
Correct. But cubecraft isn't busy so that won't be much of an effect here
Its rare that affects much
Everyone would be affected
As long as the server has stable space for said traffic
But yeah, you'll never get the same ping on different things. No server is in the same space
And something didn't cause network traffic to reroute
@gritty mango Maybe tell em how to get to browser on switch
Thats the thing
I dont remember
I know you can
kekw
There isn't a browser on nintendo switch. There a test network connection option in network settings
As long as same internet ofc
There actually is, you just have to do non kosher methods to get it
There is. Just searched it up. You have to trick your switch to access it
It just doesn't have a direct path
You need the model that is hackable
seems i have to mess with the dns settings
Just need to trick the system by altering dns settings slightly then force it to execute it
To access google
Very weird but
Eh
Whats up with the skyblock servers on Java?
I did something like that so that my son played through Minecraft
Nintendo so self conscious that they don't even add a direct browser to their console
Because it'll outdo their games
Uwu
Maintenance
Ah makes sense
They deleted all the skyblocks on java by accident
May have to reset uwu
Weird bedrock is working well, I thought bedrock was running from the java implementation being translated to bedrock.
Kinda hard to run on the same code, Java vs C++
Alright let me explain
found the browser
its roughly around 60 as well
For cubecraft they use an external program to run bedrock
with 14 ms
Which allows them to use javascript code
To run and translate over
Poof
Not same server
Same code
They did it to make it easier to fix and add stuff
Yet it adds more bugs to bedrock
Obvious why
Javascript , you mean Java
Yes sorry
14ms to your provider. Thats without external servers
Basically with that info
The Asian server is probably far away from you
That's how the java/ bedrock servers work
Or maybe when you connect to sb
It changes your region
Which has been an issue in the past
well that sucks
Yep, separate servers, same code
because this is the first time it has happened
We won't know until they help your in the #help
You can play with java players
previously, I've been playing on sb just fine
The server does
All the conversations
I stopped paying for the Apex server but it wasn't hard to setup
Correct. Java to bedrock crossplay is allowed. Want to know why cubecraft doesn't do it?
Its pretty simple
Nukkit I think it was call, its been awhile
Tos states that java to cubecraft crossplay is not legal in minecraft servers. I think if cubecraft did it, a server which mojang has on their game, there would be a tonne of issues
I never said it wasn't possible in other servers
Same way as pay to win like features aren't allowed. Yet other servers still do it
The block lag i get in skyblock is the same as I got on bedrock on my server when it saved
Remember the fact that cubecraft is a featured server
^^
Why I set autosave to 30 minutes
You cant change it
The default I think was 10 or 15
Only server administrator can change those settings
Only the devs can
Duh
The DEVELOPERS don't normally have that access.
That just sounds dumb
The ones that code the server don't have that?
Yknow
The thing they can just change
Don't have the permissions to change server code.
They definitely do
They do
Otherwise they wouldnt be able to do their job
Cause that's server administration stuff not really part of skyblock development.
Didn't know developers didn't need the server code to develop
Lol, only to the ignorant
I'll remind myself in the future
Or the code itself for that manner
XD
Maybe dont even need the coding engine
How do you think skyblock got developed? By the admins? @jolly hemlock
They "coded" it including the timer
Hence development
Oh my God thats server settings.
And you think they dont have access to server settings anyways
Its something completely different
Hell they can just change the server settings via code
Simple as replacing a number
World save Starting is a server setting , its in the configuration file.
Ik. But the skyblock save isn't the same thing
For the server
And you're saying that devs cant change it
with them having access to the entire code
They can request it, but it normally not there job to manage the server
They dont need to request to change the code
They can, also just an idea, change the server settings directly
Via code
Instead of going thru the request
@wise vault uwu we got dome questions
Dome
Yes dome
lol
Can you change the server code and access server settings at will?
Server setting and Server backups, server maintenance how often it saves is the server administrators job.
Devs don't exclusively write code
there's also a lot of backend work that goes on and is involved in running the server
^^
Most of our systems like world saving are fully automated
A DEVELOPER can ASLO BE THE server administrator
But you said a developer cant
But red aint
you're getting waaaay to far into the literal definitions
As far as im aware
in practice the lines are definitely a lot more blurred
No i didn't, its just not standard practice
There are some people on the team that do a lot more sysadmin work, others who do a lot more development work. This is really a pointless argument to be having
Basically the main question was (at the start anyways), are you able to change the autosave timer red?
If required
Hehe
I agree
I mean I have the ability to, yea
Boom
Case and point @jolly hemlock
It's obviously not near as simple as "change config value setting changed" - we do have some review processes to ensure bad code or configuration changes do not make it out onto the server however
Is there a reason why the chosen to have it save every 10 mins on bedrock?
think its lower than that
5mins
But your still able to do it if required. Thats the only part. Since premierehell said devs can't access that code
Oh boi this was a fun convo
Ikr
It's not something he would change without asking if it was a good idea.
of course
I don't think I technically said it that way
You did
Don't backpedal
We'll ask him if everybody has permission to change that.
I mean this is really quite a pointless argument to be having. As I said, we have review processes in place to ensure that bad code or configuration changes do not go out. That also means that as devs, we cannot just randomly change code or modify configuration settings without reason. This is standard practice for any company that does development, since you want to reduce as much bad code as possible (ideally none at all) going out to production
We just needed to know if you had access. Thats all
I think it was mainly proof of concept
So technically he doesn't have access until they review the code.
...
Or the reason for the change
Reviewing is different to asking for permission
Even admins need a reason behind a change
This is a standard practice for all code we deploy and really in any development studio at all, no matter the role
See^ role doesn't matter behind that part
Since if they didn't go by that practice
You could have a rogue employee
Or a bad change by accident
So regardless it was a pointless argument, i was wrong in my understanding.
Del syst32
Also @gritty mango you fine with maybe starting that calamity thing today?
Should i make the world?
I shall still make it~
Ill probably be a mage fyi, never actually done a calam mage playthru yet
Been trying for gfb but thats tough to be class locked
I'll do range
Fair
Haven't done range
Its really good
yo
I love ranger past ml
had a question?
Go ahead
can someone help me kill the wither i had nice armor now i fought him and got destroyed
you cant kill it on pe
Lol
now my helemt is left
I mean given i still die with full dia prot 5
If i dont prep
Just need gapples
Really
Get very high smite and a bow to kill quicker
my aim in now a diamond sword with sharpness 10
And make sure to have strength
Do smite
Smite is stronger
As wither is an undead
By a lot
how xp?
75 for level 6
I belive more than 200 levels
Its 5 per level until level 6
Then its +15
So level 7 is 90
Etc
And each smite is basically two sharpness
25+5+1 if its stone
So 31
Stone sword does 6 damage. Its +5 because it adds to fist
ok around 100-150 hearts of damage?
since wither on bedrock has 600 health
i beilive my math should be correct
The bow is like iron, first 5 lvls is 15,30,45,60,75, then 100,118,136,+18 till 20
Takes like 2 hits from the bow at lvl 19 to bring him half health. 2 hits from smite 20 sword . One if it critical i think. You can trap the Wither in cobblestone Genorators and simply use a smite 15 sword , I dont think the sword before had any effect. Like the bow stops working mid way.
Tried it on my tablet and on phone, same issues. normal minecraft runs perfectly
its seems worse around coords 0,0 +/- 100 blocks, both netherworld and overworld
Cant trap in cobble gens anymore. Already been proven
Wither breaks through them when the wither gets damaged. Goes for both java and bedrock
for wither I build a big box (50x50x10) with around 6 layers floor, ceiling and walls. first layer ceiling obsidian where he spawns (needs to be high emugh to stop first blast), shed load chiken spawners, then dance around like a headless chicken trying to kill it
Well I will show you
It worked before 1.19. 1.19 java code broke it
Was already shown
Just did it yesterday
He stays long enough to get killed.
Lvl 10 smite is required
You need 2 layers of gens
Because he can destroy them
Yes but you can still trap him long enough.
He goes on for so long that his armor breaks
So you think 2 layers will do it for him?
And a middle layer that help hold him
well i have an idea i should compelete all the quest that i have now then go to kill the wither
in the dev world you have gated checking and gated deployment pipelines. This means people have to look at changes, review and either accept and reject
Yep, exactly
I hope I'm not interrupting, is there a way I can ask for help on a part of Skyblock either by mods or players
