Now, if you did some of your quests up to now (unlike some of us - it's a good thing to have the foresight to follow the carefully planned instructional steps that were laid out for us by the kind creator JadedCat ), the one that required you to make a crucible also mentioned something about a clay bucket made with 3 pieces of clay. At least I think it did.........it's my mom's Alzheimer's thing, it's really catchy. And I maintain that story.
Anyhowz, we know that we have the option of a clay bucket at this point. We also know of the option of an iron bucket from vanilla minecraft. And we know that we can get some iron ingots by joining 4 pieces of the same type of iron ore into a block and baking it in a furnace to get an iron ingot.
The clay bucket option. The only problem with this option is that it's a one-time use only item. Once you move that lava to the generator and plop the lava down, it's gone for good. What happens if you miss and plop it down in the wrong spot - like the wrong end of the generator or you miss and the lava flows wildly.......things like that do happen, right? You gotta think ahead of yourself. (Of course, you could always make yourself another clay bucket............if you didn't look ahead of yourself too much and make way too many porcelain clays for all the crucibles you were gonna make later......and if you had more water in those barrels because the only way to fill it at the moment is with rainwater - and it doesn't rain much if you're sleeping all the time at night).
The iron bucket option. The only problem with this is - I still need enough ores for one more piece of iron ingot. I have enough for two at the moment. So, it would take some time - making dirt, sifting dirt, making stone, pounding stone, sifting gravel and so on and so forth until you come up with the iron pieces for the final ingot. And then you'd need 8 pieces of cobble to make the furnace (yes, I know you can make the slab furnace...........now), so more dirt to make, more dirt to sift.
And the biggest problem with the iron bucket option is - I WANT A PAIR OF SHEERS! Just your regular, old fashion, plain, old vanilla sheers (you can make them out of other metals but I don't have a smeltery at this point to make the required elements). That you need TWO iron ingots to make. And I have two iron ingots - or rather, enough ores to make a pair of sheers (do you count sheers as a pair? random thought of the moment). Why a pair of sheers, you ask? Why to make more dirt, of course. Because with sheers you can not only sheer a sheep, you can sheer a tree too. Strip them neked, so to speak. o.o And those leaves can be used in barrels to make dirt- later when you make your fishing sieve you can also use the leaves to get fish bait, cute little critters. The process of dirt making would be enormously faster than using a crook to get a sapling to fall.
Decisions, decisions, decisions. A lot of options (two is more than I want sometimes) does not a happy person make. And after spending some moments pondering on this problem, I decide.............
To go make a pair of sheers. To make more dirt. To wait for rain. To make more stone. To make more iron. To make more sand. To make more dust. And let nature decide for me. Mwahahahaha.
Because with no water in my barrels, no clay to make a bucket, no iron to make a bucket, no stone to make a furnace, I decided to do all of it and let nature decide which bucket I was going to end up with. If it rained and I had enough water in the buckets, I'd go make a clay bucket. If it didn't rain and I kept making dirt, I could sift it for stone to make cobble to pound into gravel that I could sift for iron pieces to make an iron bucket. It was a race to see what came first. The iron or the rain. Guess which happened first? (O.O)
And I got to turn in my quest. And complete my first cobble generator.
(Yes, it rained first)
サクサクと進みましょう
溶岩です。お引越しです。問題です。ハイ。
サクサクと問題に取り掛かりましょう。いい加減前に進みたいです。他のお話も色々したいです。
と言う訳でバケツです。液体運びの基本道具、バケツです。 其処で質問です。どのバケツにしますか？鉄のバケツにしますか？それとも粘土のバケツにしますか？で又もや迷いました。二択選択でも多いと感じる瞬間です。ハイ。
え？と想うかもしれません。粘土バケツ？ハイ。MOD様々です。どのMODか今はド忘れしてみたりです。母の認知症を貰い受けている瞬間です。よく起こるようになりました。ハイ。
兎に角、粘土バケツです。名前の通りに粘土で作ります。粘土余ってますか？良かったですね。自分は余りませんでした。余りにも先走り過ぎて、先見をし過ぎて、溶岩大量生産の夢の為に大量投資して皆磁器に変換してしまいました。過ぎ去るは後悔、金を水の如きに使うようなことをしたら駄目なような、少しの貯金を残しましょうの教訓です。塵も積もれば山となる人間コツコツが大事です。造り方はクエストの一部としてお勉強できます。クエストを考えてくれた作者親切です。感謝の念を抱きましょう。クエストコツコツとこなしましょう。
続いて、鉄バケツです。鉄インゴットが必要です。既に二個程作れる材料は揃っています。砂利を振るって鉄屑Iron Oreを四個合わせれば鉄屑ブロックに、砂でもDustでも似たような鉄物を四個合わせる鉄何ブロックの出来上がりです。でも、未だ一個足りません。大事なのでもう一度。足りません。そしてその足りない鉄分を集める為に土を造り、石を作り、石を砕いて砂利を造り、砂利を振るって鉄分が出る迄繰り返し作業三昧です。
でも鉄バケツの一番の問題はこの面倒な繰り返し作業じゃないのです。では何かと言うと。自分鉄バサミSheersが欲しいんです！如何しても欲しいんです！ 羊もいないのに欲しいんです。だって鉄バサミって羊を丸刈りするだけでなく木の葉っぱも丸刈りに出来たりもしますからです。ハイ。
在れば土作りも格段と速度が上がります。木の葉っぱ量半端無いです。凄く便利なものです。後に造る魚網ザルも葉っぱを振るってカワキモな餌が取れます。魚釣り放題です。釣り面白いです。便利です。一石二鳥です。人間進化する生き物です。ハイ。
で、ですね？これ等のことを悶々と悩んだ挙句如何したかというと・・・・
鉄バサミを作って、土を作って、雨を待って、石を作って、鉄を作って、砂を造って、 Dustを造って、成り行きに任せることにしました。ワハハハハハハ～
だって、ですね？桶には水は無いし、夜は寝ていたので雨は降らないし、粘土バケツを作るための粘土は残っていないし、鉄バケツを作る為の鉄インゴットは足りないし、竈作る為の石も足りないし、のナイナイ尽くしに無い物はしょうがないと諦めて、備え在れば憂い無しの如く雨が降れば粘土を作れるような準備を調え、雨が降らなければ鉄を揃えて鉄バケツを作る準備を。と準備万端に状況を整えて出たとこ勝負です。で雨は降ったかて？お聞きに成ります？
クエスト無事終了しました。初代丸石製造機無事 完成です。ハイ。
因みに雨が勝ちました。
