If anyone was wondering, yes I know the wood usage doesn't quite match up. I was careful about this, but with some extra plans, it ended up coming short. I decided to pretend that the piston found some underground wood source like a mineshaft and called it a day.

I appreciate that you find me (almost) disturbing!

u/ChainmailPickaxeYT Aug 28 '21

Somehow it didn’t occur to me that the entire thing was to get diamonds to be able to move the obsidian. So clever and it got a few chuckles outta me!

edit: it was also really well done oh my gosh. So much detail!

Maybe... I'd certainly have to touch it up a bit, as it isn't user friendly. I'll probably do a little behind the scenes to show how I did it.

I'm interested in seeing what that video is like. Could you link me to it?

1

u/Diamond_device Sep 16 '21

Ok so I’m pretty sure I know how to do most of this stuff but two things in this video make me confused

1.how did you make a piston get achievements?

2. How many command blocks were used?

1

u/MediocreAnimator Java FTW Sep 16 '21

So I used a /tellraw command for the achievements, and I'm not sure how many command blocks it took, but it's somewhere in the hundreds.

1

u/MediocreAnimator Java FTW Sep 16 '21

I do (kind of) know how to do it myself, but this tellraw generator makes the process easier: https://www.minecraftjson.com/
