"Intersection Madness" is the 6th episode of Etho's Etho Plays Minecraft series.
Summary
Special episode today! We visit my other world to look at a nearly finished intersection / junction for the EATS system.
This is a sneak peak to demonstrate how a finished road segment may function. The road junction demonstrates how to hook 4 road ends together in an effective manner.
This video also demonstrates how equal boat sharing is achieved in the system so that no dispenser will run out of boats or overload with boats.
Synopsis
Etho first introduces the viewers to the concept of the episode, where he takes his viewers to a "private world." He says how he worked on an intersection for the EATS road in a separate world. He takes it for a test drive to demonstrate. He showcases a fully functional leg of the road and describes how the system works. He also gives some examples how players can utilize the system in their own worlds or servers.
After, he shows off a shaft to showcase under the system to show how the boat return works, with some changes. He explains these changes, mostly finding issue with the ways boats interact with each other. Another issue was a lack of space for an easy loader, but he found a spot for it to work without needing a loader. He also says there are some issues with boats departing on multiplayer, and gives suggestions on how to do a temporary fix until the issue is fixed. He asks the users for suggestions and flaws.
He give a shoutout to EtherImp(?), a Minecraft user on a server he visited, who pointed out the multiplayer boat issue. He gave another shoutout to Eyoxiz, who sent a video about him working on an EATS system. After, he ends off the episode, stating the next episode will be back in the old world.
Trivia
- This episode does not take place in the same world as the prior 5 episodes, instead taking place in a previous world for inspiration.
- This is the first instance of a world that isn't the the current series' world appearing in an episode.
- He links another video by Eyoxiz via annotations, but it's unknown what video he linked to.
- Judging by upload dates, the video title, and a comment from Etho, it was likely "Minecraft - (EATS) Alternative Intersections HD" on a channel of the same name.
