Etho MindCrack SMP – Episode 25: Slime Mechanics
MindCrack is a server Guude started in late 2010. It is a private (whitelisted) server. We are currently not accepting applications. In this episode we work on the mechanical systems of the slime tower and I also go over the rules of slime spawning. I fixed the redstone after this episode by lowering all the torches by 1 block, and also putting a block behind the redstone torch so that the water does not flow that direction.

Etho said he doesn’t like advertising although this may be different since it’s for a friend I think he would like to help him by himself I would think…

Hee Etho! I love you! ;p Haha well not gay or anything ;p Anyway I thought I may give you a tip of how to do the water-system for the slimespawner. You could have also used a sticky piston with sand or gravel or just one sticky piston but then from above. The slimes wouldn’t be able to fit through the piston-arm then since they can’t jump that high! But I also of course like your idea! It’s nicer but it’s more costly! Anyway nice episode man!

Internets lied to me :(

Will the same slime farm design work in Single Player? :/

No. They changed it so upside down half slabs act as full blocks, so now you can place items on them (redstone, rails, etc). That also means mobs can spawn on upside down half slabs. But they still will still not spawn on regular half slabs.

wooden halfsteps are fire resistant, and will be until 1.3, but they’re going to introduce all the types of wooden half steps, but they wont change the block value of the pre 1.3 wooden halfsteps :D

I dont have anything against Z Its just annoying hearing the same thing about different characters of the mindcrack sever all the time, I love the guy.

You’re probably not going to read this but I’ll try anyways. Hello, my name is Picklah, I’m a commentator for the games Minecraft and PS3 games. I upload my videos in full 720p HD with my mic quality is really good. I just want to be noticed a little bit more, so if you can just hop over to my channel to check out my video, it would mean a lot, thank you.

Etho, wouldn’t the lava blade in the slime farm catch the leave walls on fire? I assume the wood is already slabs but the leaves are very close too

@EthosLab So I did the right thing making my slime spawner a block wider then the slime chunk borders so all large and medium slimes spawn?
June 23rd, 2012 at 9:20 AM
its only upside-down halfslabs, and even that’s not fully confirmed
June 23rd, 2012 at 9:25 AM
etho, if you move the torch tower down one (in line with the water), then place both a block behind the torch and beside the torch, the water physics will force the water to take the path of least resistance resulting in it going into the slime farm and not the torch

Ehh maybe I’ll explain a bit better if needed, I meant a sticky-piston with a block and sand on top of that block of course..
June 23rd, 2012 at 9:27 AM
They do
June 23rd, 2012 at 9:28 AM
why wont anything there catch fire from the lava?
I dont quite get the mechanics of fire spreading 8[

Etho in next patch mobs WILL spawn on half-slabs and stairs. They changed it.
June 23rd, 2012 at 9:37 AM
24:35 a bit more fancy? do they even teach grammar in Canada?
June 23rd, 2012 at 9:37 AM
Probably, yes. As long as you know it’s a slime chunk for sure :)
June 23rd, 2012 at 9:40 AM
Whoever told you that is wrong, they will not spawn on half slabs in 1.3.
June 23rd, 2012 at 9:40 AM
etho have you ever done a redstone how to? if not, could you do one?
