i was confused how the bulb sorter was better lol. very interesting and unexpected video! Obviously a lot of creators like myself make videos "for the purpose of getting views" (because it's my job and how i afford rent) but i completely agree that it's been blown way out of proportion over the past few years. Unfortunately, the title "I built an auto sorter" isn't as clickable as "I built the largest sorting system in the world" (which is almost certainly an exaggeration). I think the issue is just a wide lack of easily accessible/clear guides for people. For example, you mention the best place to find storage tech is in a discord. I don't think many people would join a discord just to find info on that, they're just gonna follow the first video to pop up regardless of who uploaded it or if they credit any designers. Maybe i should start making super short videos showcasing that type of stuff again?
Appreciate the comment! I definitely don't mean to harp on honest folks who do this for a living. My biggest qualms are with videos that showcase a build that doesn't even work or do what it's supposed to do. And hey, I'd love to collaborate with you if you're interested in doing that type of stuff again! :)
I love the way this video was done! I think the appeal of the single-item hopper chain storage system is that it's easy to understand and easy to build each slice. The average Minecraft player is not a redstone/minecart/game tick expert. I'm a casual Minecraft player at best. I work a full-time job, and I have a family to raise. I don't have a lot of time to play, let alone learn complicated storage solutions. I've built a MIS system in one of my worlds, but I had to build it in Creative. I loved the system and it made gathering resources for a build so convenient. Even though I don't fully understand how the MIS systems work, I appreciate communities like the Storage Tech community pushing the envelope of what can be done in the game and the willingness to help players trying to build their own systems. Thank you!
@@sebastiangrau8409 True, but it doesn't help you *understand* the system. It only helps with building and/or resetting a contraption to a known state, which usually doesn't help too much with storage systems. The best storage system is the one you understand and, in a pinch, can repair.
@@TheRealWormbo I designed my own storage and built it with litematica many times. The schematic actually has a few mistakes that I know about and remember to fix each time when I build it. It’s still a very useful tool to build things when you do know what you’re doing.
Simply lacking on the v5 front so not ultimate enough. Also didnt see any dolphins. Amyway, this is the youtube that i want. I want this well done, well knowledged redstone with well meanings other than just doing whatever gets views. This is why you are my favourite redstone channel, and why i have modeles whatever videos i made after yours. That ending tho
Excitedly looking forward to the uLtiMaTe cArTmIs vfOUr!!!!! :D But seriously, great video. Good, sound, practical advice. I have a storage system that is a bunch of shulker loaders for the single item, mass quantity items. Found it on the Storage Tech Discord. And your Moony MIS V5 for the multi-item storage. Thanks again
In all seriousness, the joke at the end of this video really makes me want to see the storage tech version of the "turbo encabulator" - a build that somehow contains every possible buzz word making the most unnecessarily complicated storage room of all time.
Awesome vid, I love a bit of satire, I hope your message gets out there to the people getting swindled. Keep up the good work! Also I'm looking forward to CartMiS v5 XD
Finally. Someone has pointed this problem out. Whenever i see a "Best automatic storage system" and it claims thats cuz it can store milions of items ot its just a one huge hopper line with single item type filters i just laugh and move on. Such a great video.
you had me in the first half not going to lie. my blood was boiling it would've been a lot more funny if you used your dustless filter and advertised it as "dust updateless > least laggy"
One thing I've never understood with people who build these endless single item filter corridors (and I HAVE seen them) is the absolute marathon it must take to actually grab anything
I'm still waiting for the day minecraft adds tech to make storage systems possible that are fast and completely unload safe for the people that play on server where you can't use any chunk loaders. I built quite a bit of different storage systems and only the slowest ones are reliable enough under those circumstances sadly
I went for a simple one item per chest, stacked once with water streams. It stores about 1k items this way. Directly after the input it filters out non stackables and sorts those separately with their unique filters. And then I have your moony serving as random items overflow like all copper items, and stuff that gets dispensed. I could’ve built it a lot smaller, but it’s broken more than once and I know how to fix it like this
At a first glance i was like "naaah there is no way he called that ultimate, he know well storage tech he isn't this dumb. He's either high or washed" and then suddenly became a really good video about what you should spect and dont just copy
you forgot to add a link to the storage at the end ! ( all that aside I love this video but I am going to build moony mis v5 again because I've built it once correctly :') )
What on earth should I build for my storage system then I'm really stuck. Cartmis for me seems to complicated and the compact categorizor seems too small. HELP
We need a super lag-efficient, hopperlocking, dustless, entity friendly storage with all types such as single item, mixed, bulk shulkerbox and unsorted&unatackables for 1.21 with potential for 1.22 with all new features and ideally compact and buildable. 😅
I would add that with water this filter can potentially break, as long as the speed is limited by the Hopper it's fine, but when the frequency exceeds a certain amount, the copper bulb does a double toggle and the filter fills up and doesn't empty anymore😂😂
@@RaPsCaLLioN1138 I've just now tested in 1.21.1, with hopper is fixed, but I tested putting items manually clicking at certain speed for switching from 41 to 42 items, and at certain timing the bulb commute 2 times and overflow. So with hopper line work, but with "random" input (like water flow circuit sometimes in certain conditions) this still can overflow and break, it's not solid like ss3 filter
Are you sure that's still true now that you can put a solid block over the hopper to disable all the searching for items? With the water method they still have to do that. So maybe it's not better anymore.
with water you don't have to have the line of hoppers at the top to move the items, they go right over the filters directly. It's faster, cheaper and since it's less hoppers it's even less lag
Solid blocks on hoppers are a scam. Use composters if you wand to cover hoppers, as solid blocks don't stop the hopper from looking for entities with an inventory (hopper carts, chest boats), which they won't do if they have a block inventory (e.g. the composter) above already. Also, with a water stream of this size, you will definitely want to use hopper locking with redstone signals.
@@EmdyMC Yes, that's why it used to be better. But hoppers that don't have to constantly check for items above them are basically just solid blocks when not in use. water streams require the hoppers to be active all the time. Active or not. But I hear their may be a complication with rail minecarts.
@@lucidmoses remember your filter hoppers are always active regardless so a waterstream is still better because there's no extra tile entities to tick.
@@EmdyMC Really? I don't have access to the code but if they were honest about the block over the hopper disabling the search for item. Then while no items are flowing through there shouldn't be any block updates so the whole thing should be quite. The torch state change and the above hopper stat change should cause the block update of the filter hopper. Why would it tic otherwise?
And for those of us without discord, we're just SOL? I've had a discord account almost as long as Minecraft has been a game, but they never let me use it.
There's a handful of us that regularly post Storage Tech related videos to RU-vid: Inspector Talon, AndrewsTechMC, Obi, 51 MayDay, Kayzm... check them out!
4.5M IS NOWHERE NEAR A LOT, ANY BULK ITEM SHOULD HAVE ROOM FOR ATLEAST 9000 SHULKERBOXES, PER ITEM, AND UR TALKING ABOUT 4.5M FOR THE ENTIRE STORAGE AND SAYING IT'S A LOT
