FTB Skies Ep25 Beeeeeees

Bzzzzzz

Hey Dire. Like worker bees IRL, Minecraft bees die off once they have attacked you.

Dire: alternate recipe for void upgrade. Cactus and iron nuggets

[BrentLorend]

You don’t need obsidian, you can make the void upgrades from auxiliary cactus upgrades.

When bees sting you they die just like in real life

Silk touch to pick up beehives. Dread lamp to stop pig spawns.

[garyboyles]

The bee entities seem to work, even shrunk. It would be so adorable to have tiny bees.

[paulnieuwkamp]

Dire, you can control how fast the jetpack goes with period and comma. For general base shenanigan's I have it at 50%. I still prefer creative flight though, no fire particles and my muscle memory is double-jump, not whatever hotkey the engine is set to.

Easiest lava source:

Pedestal to create netherrack -> Magma Crucible

hi dire once bees string they will die just like real bees

[IceMetalPunk]

Like bees in real life, Minecraft bees die shortly after they successfully sting you (exactly 1 minute later).

[waveclaw]

When I was starting out, wish I had known about that feature of the shrinking tool to pickup mobs. Super useful and Direwolf20 video made great use of that to get bees out of the laggy void where they pile up.

You could stop power extraction from generators when a player comes nearby: it'll have a delay, as buffer will have to fill up before the generator stops working, but it's only a second or two

The advanced bee hive speed upgrade works in the centurfuge

[friedpistachios]

I've noticed that when faced with a risk of ruining a build and having to reset (breaking the bee hive, ticking off the bees) or just taking 5 seconds and making a new hive just to be safe, well, Dire doesn't disappoint. 🤣

You can play Benny Hill music in the background and watch certain clips on mute.

Uhhhm maybe, for the netherstar generators if laserio can extract energy with counting filter then make it 99, 999 FE and when player comes nearby stop extract and you know you experienced no room for extract = stoping machine in previous video so thats it.
Edit: "working solution" is at the answer to this comment.

[thinkdunson]

you can get free lava with the electric squeezer and a pedestal producing netherrack, then use the electric drying basin to make magma, then bulk heating to make obsidian.
the squeezer is extremely slow, so i would suggest at least two, if not four. but they use 80rf/t each, so they'll need their own power supplies. i just have two squeezers and one drying basin producing obsidian, and another squeezer stockpiling lava for whatever. i gave each machine it's own tier two solar panel and it's not enough to run all night, but still good enough for passive production over time.

[shadowdreampaul]

and here we see dire reaching the end game of a modpack after 25 episodes, gg!

[fastford]

I know the videos are back logged but an idea to use that detector from cyclic, you could use laser IO with overclocked energy cards and a red stone card to cut the energy card on and off based on what the detector sees. So essentially red stone control but using the nether star generators own internal buffer to backstuff and turn the machine off when a player comes near by.

[argon]

Does the flux point not respond to redstone? Turn off when nearby, flux ducts and gens fill up quick, issue gone?
