You can steer using engine commands only…if he had two screws; which he doesn’t. Could use internal gyro scope to cause heading to shift as the gyro angle is pushed.
For a rudder to work in the air it would need to be ginormous and look very out of place. I think the ship is steering by alternating how much thrust comes out of each of the thrusters in the back.
@4203105 sorry, but that's not true, look at any airship or aircraft. Flight control is achieved by simply moving the trailing edge of the wings and tail fins. But this is fantasy, although you're right about the thrusters, in steampunk. Also Tango said it's controlled by magic. The lore therefore is that the helm he built controls the magic which in turn controls the airship. Does this mean the airship is sentient? Or is the magic unnaturally bound to the airship in forced servitude?
Hearing Tango say he's not a builder after everything he's built in my time watching him- blows my mind! I've been focusing on building more than redstone/exploration in my 8 years of minecraft and I've only just learned how to add texture and depth to houses- So cool seeing everything the hermits do, always taking inspiration from you guys!
Should build a table with some maps of the surrounding area and a cartographer station. You could use walls to make a pipe system for communication. Could have a set pop up near the Helm and engine room.
ideas to add: Life boats for emergencies, shuttle boats for loading people and supplies, coiled ropes for tying to docks, some sort of anchor, fine places to sit and dine, a place for a band, occasional fireworks
think cruise liner. Stuff that was on the titanic. Bars, Sun lounger, pools, a movie theater or art gallery, a Ballroom. Small airship life boats. emergency elytra incase you need to abandon ship.
The airship/Zeppelin is amazing! I love it! Also, if it is a people carrier, then some guest quarters would be handy. Crew quarters are also always helpful. A kitchen, dining, entertainment. Basically an old fashioned cruise ship in the skys.
You definitely need a cannon, but it's a tourist attraction, cordoned off with a mustachioed tour guide to tell the ritzy tourists about canons and let them hit the button. The button shoots a TNT off into the distance? A creeper? A bit of sand? But overall, the canon is for tourists who got on the boat and thought it was a pirate thing, and the luxury guides saw fit to take advantage
From the etho look: If I'm a ritzy tourist on the boat, on a fancy date, Where's my fancy room, where's my fancy meal, what am I doing for entertainment? Who's the chef? Where do they keep the fancy wine?
If luxury, take some inspiration from the ocean liners that had a grand hotel like interior, like the Titanic and Britannic. Like a grand staircase, cabins, ballroom, fancy dining area, gambling area, pool/sauna, lounge, etc.
Personally I'd turn the whole thing into a cargo ship, would be more fitting if you want to crates and stuff as mentioned early in the stream. Also I think a luxury ship would have more physical separation between the passenger allowed area on the deck and the machines. Anyways, which ever way you take it, it's an awesome build.
It would be really cute to have a passenger looking through the binoculars. I would recommend having Papa K lifting up baby BDubs to look through them.
The ship looks amazing!! For additional details, firework ballista with the tango fireworks? And maybe something with elytra? The crew would probably fly around to do repairs
From scars idea of a crane: Loading some shroom lights into the vat? Or cleo's patreon server help for a copper golem figurehead? See Joel's Joel/Jimmy decoration Cleo made in Joels base. Your ballista could fire copper from the farm... Etho Q: emergency elytra box [In case of falling break glass]
On the bow of your airship, you can use some of the spaces to place benches. I often use beds with trapdoors on the sides so they are conveniently accessible at night, yet still decorative.
I know I usually enjoy just watching the VODs with no chat.... But I was tempted to hop on Twitch and look at chat's reaction when Mrs T said "your new topic to talk about is favorite underpants to wear to the gym"🤣
The ship could in theory be docked and have a floating platform or column adjacent that is how the passengers and cargo get on board, either by elevator or perhaps it has it's own balloons, and floats the offloaded cargo could get water streamed over and drop from that too. Loving all the details coming in, you have to suspend disbelief on any of these builds, practicality is not an option.
"bubble pipe" smoking/lounge area? gambling/roulette/craps tables/slot machines? a stage and seating area for singer or performer to entertain the guests in the evenings? buffet line? maybe a pool/hot tub on the deck!
Tango for doing the steering wheel, could you use layered armour stands with wooden pick axes in a circle with a final stand holding a centered button? Just an idea = love the ship you did a great job
Fantastic work, love how the hermits are coming together to compliment and help! I think a 'mascot' on the front is a great idea, emergency elytra like parachutes, maybe chains down some sides as a rope to lower and raise people. Seperate the big below deck into rooms for sure and many amenities and could be some fun lounge areas for LNC (stat poker, hot tub, dinner table etc) Or you could leave it and it's amazing as is haha!
I agree with that early chatter This is the best build I've ever seen in Minecraft, too. AND I WATCH BDUBS AND SCAR I forget that tango isn't JUST the redstone master
Gem's little scream @2:23:36 would be perfect as a variant to Skizz screams whenever you get a visitor XD 99% of the time it's skizz but every so often its just lowercase aaah from Gem
I was thinking about what Etho said, (about needing a rescue device for when people fall overboard) and what if you made a couple “break glass in case of emergency” type boxes with elytra in them?
Hey tango, airship looks amazing! If you are still looking for ideas on what to put on the deck of the ship you should add some tables and chairs for guests to sit, maybe have a drink and relax on the deck (maybe like a little restaurant or bar kinda thing?).
You need passenger cabins along the sides with the windows. Voyages won't all be day trips. Put benches on the top deck. Don't put crates on the top deck. Make a grand dining area/ball room in the middle. Think "Titanic".
iirc, toilets in old ships were just a hole in a board leading directly to the ocean, and they had a "toilet paper" rope to wipe with that reached down into the ocean to clean itself between uses. now this isn't acceptable on the airship for two reasons... 1. imagine people having to stay away from the impending doom of airships overhead, bombarding buildings and people with airturds... not a good experience i imagine... and 2. i don't think you'll find a rope long enough to touch water at all times. as scar mentioned toilets are things that shows that there are people there, just doing their thing, and should likely be added to a commercial ship, and with steampunk themes i imagine the most natural thing would be to build a waste incinerator of some sort if you do end up going that way
Man I wish I had caught the stream, the pickaxe idea was amazing he just did it wrong. Could've placed a mini gold block on the centre of the copper bulb and placed the picks in a wheel shape around the mini block!
54:24, it's kinda like a parascope. It's not a submarine but I do like it. Or it's like those binoculars you pay 25cents for in a national park to use lol
the nav rrom should just be in the captains chamber, the current nav room should be a bar or merchant area like (etho said) that way it makes sense that the people would walk through that to get from their seats to the viewing deck
I think port is which ever side you crash into port, starboard is the side facing the stars after the ship rolls, fore is where you hide be-fore crashing, and aft is what’s left aft-er crashing…
Flip the gold picks over where the gold is against the block and the handle is what you grab to steer. Also use a trap door instead of a full block for the center
Tricky was the theme song of SSX Tricky It was an amazing game! I'd even dare say, best sport related game of it's time. SSX 3 was pretty close though.
could make a battle ships game in the gaming district. just a simple one using copper blocks as the ships and lightning rods and end rods to indicate hits or misses
You could make such an accurate Wall-E with those binoculars.. so in steampunk cant those be the crew? Like robot wall-e crew. With a gold block, small blackstone slaps, small grindstone and small gold blocks you can get really close 😅.. one like shuffle chroomlinght in the engine, one mopping the floor, one working behind the bar etc..
while the binoculars don't really feel like something the captain would use they remind me a lot if the old coin opperated sight seeing binoculars and if the ship is for passengers then they would be great for them to use
Add ropes from the railings up to the balloon. A galley luxury food tables and carts. Life boats. An anchor. (Sailing traditions will always remain. No matter what, there would be an anchor).
For the airship crew, invite the hermits to come setup an armor stand version of themself on the ship.
Ship needs a figurehead. I recommend Skizz as a mermaid in a bikini.
Tango - "It doesn't need a rudder!"
Proceeds to build a helm, that's only purpose is to move the rudder.
It's a magical steampunk ship, it doesn't need a rudder
You can steer using engine commands only…if he had two screws; which he doesn’t. Could use internal gyro scope to cause heading to shift as the gyro angle is pushed.
Clearly the helm operates the helicopter-like swash plate on the variable pitch prop to generate differential thrust.
For a rudder to work in the air it would need to be ginormous and look very out of place. I think the ship is steering by alternating how much thrust comes out of each of the thrusters in the back.
@4203105 sorry, but that's not true, look at any airship or aircraft. Flight control is achieved by simply moving the trailing edge of the wings and tail fins. But this is fantasy, although you're right about the thrusters, in steampunk.

in before ijevin makes the blimp look like a floating cow
@kevin you giving out badges?(jk lol)😅
Cleo still loves posing armour stands. I can't really understand why, but I imagine it's for her like Redstone is for me. Never gets old.
Why does Etho in the thumbnail look like he’s saying “YIPPEE!!!”
Happy lil guy xD
Seems more like a "HURRAYYY ☺️" to me
The real question is why is he still using Gems season 9 skin when he has updated everyone else who has a new skin this season.
Should build a table with some maps of the surrounding area and a cartographer station. You could use walls to make a pipe system for communication. Could have a set pop up near the Helm and engine room.
ideas to add: Life boats for emergencies, shuttle boats for loading people and supplies, coiled ropes for tying to docks, some sort of anchor, fine places to sit and dine, a place for a band, occasional fireworks
Steampunk ships would need broadside cannons to protect herself. That is still valid.
If it's a luxury ship, then it will be a target for air pirates. Maybe you need a defense system.
think cruise liner. Stuff that was on the titanic. Bars, Sun lounger, pools, a movie theater or art gallery, a Ballroom. Small airship life boats. emergency elytra incase you need to abandon ship.
The airship/Zeppelin is amazing! I love it! Also, if it is a people carrier, then some guest quarters would be handy. Crew quarters are also always helpful. A kitchen, dining, entertainment. Basically an old fashioned cruise ship in the skys.
skizz mermaid figure head would be so good.
The funniest thing you could do is name the boat is SS Decked Out 3
@@1stsana then add signs around. Eg Sundecked Out, Viewing Decked Out, Poop Decked Out, Below Decksout.
architect here,
lavatory=sink used in bathroom, water closet=toilet bowl, powder room=toilet with no shower thus usually used for powdering :)
Luxury ship, steam punk, I'm thinking billiard room with pool, poker, etc.
You definitely need a cannon, but it's a tourist attraction, cordoned off with a mustachioed tour guide to tell the ritzy tourists about canons and let them hit the button.

If I'm a ritzy tourist on the boat, on a fancy date,
Where's my fancy room, where's my fancy meal, what am I doing for entertainment?
Who's the chef? Where do they keep the fancy wine?
Are my date and I the only guests on the trip?
Just caught the last of the stream this morning, absolute love the fast uploads man. Keep killing it!!
Suggestion: Elytra behind a glass pane with a sign saying “in case of emergency, break glass”
If luxury, take some inspiration from the ocean liners that had a grand hotel like interior, like the Titanic and Britannic. Like a grand staircase, cabins, ballroom, fancy dining area, gambling area, pool/sauna, lounge, etc.
Mrs.T is the best non-hermit hermit
Mess hall is Army terminology. But all ships (not just Navy) call the kitchen/eating area the galley.
Personally I'd turn the whole thing into a cargo ship, would be more fitting if you want to crates and stuff as mentioned early in the stream. Also I think a luxury ship would have more physical separation between the passenger allowed area on the deck and the machines. Anyways, which ever way you take it, it's an awesome build.

The best thing about Top… he’s legit honest. So much fun to watch your streams🤗
The ship looks amazing!! For additional details, firework ballista with the tango fireworks? And maybe something with elytra? The crew would probably fly around to do repairs
The copper pearl.
The perfect name, iykyk
a balista could fire a harpoon for anchoring the ship or towing it closer to another vessel or docking tower.
cannons are more limited in their use.
Jump scaring Scar will NEVER get old, 🤣

Supporting my way through all the Hermit's comments.
most age of sail ships had some cannon for defence, so it wouldn't scream pirate ship to have a few
Should use the model Xisuma’s added to the server and crew the ship with Coper Golems!
Build over sized grappling hook launchers on the mid sides of the deck for pulling your airship towards floating islands to dock at?
Oh and a Skizz figurehead up front with big, giant… eyes and a wide open mouth screaming away!
Maybe keralis
Gem dropping out of the sky the instant Tango mentioned decked out was hilarious
I know I usually enjoy just watching the VODs with no chat.... But I was tempted to hop on Twitch and look at chat's reaction when Mrs T said "your new topic to talk about is favorite underpants to wear to the gym"🤣

This is the best build I've ever seen in Minecraft, too. AND I WATCH BDUBS AND SCAR
I forget that tango isn't JUST the redstone master
1:14:31 you could hang lanterns below, that'd light it up, and be steampunky.
Your ship needs a lifeboat! A flying lifeboat.
Gem's little scream @2:23:36 would be perfect as a variant to Skizz screams whenever you get a visitor XD 99% of the time it's skizz but every so often its just lowercase aaah from Gem
I was thinking about what Etho said, (about needing a rescue device for when people fall overboard) and what if you made a couple “break glass in case of emergency” type boxes with elytra in them?
If you put a mini game on the airship, it could be called poop decked out!
Hey tango, airship looks amazing! If you are still looking for ideas on what to put on the deck of the ship you should add some tables and chairs for guests to sit, maybe have a drink and relax on the deck (maybe like a little restaurant or bar kinda thing?).
I feel like Cleo’s like doing armor stands for people if it’s a challenging or creative project but if it’s too simple then I wouldn’t ask her
You need passenger cabins along the sides with the windows. Voyages won't all be day trips. Put benches on the top deck. Don't put crates on the top deck. Make a grand dining area/ball room in the middle. Think "Titanic".
Just for the shirt crowd, I hope Tango shows up 1 day in a rainbow or tie-dye shirt and go "if you guessed my shirt was a color, then you win!"
iirc, toilets in old ships were just a hole in a board leading directly to the ocean, and they had a "toilet paper" rope to wipe with that reached down into the ocean to clean itself between uses. now this isn't acceptable on the airship for two reasons... 1. imagine people having to stay away from the impending doom of airships overhead, bombarding buildings and people with airturds... not a good experience i imagine... and 2. i don't think you'll find a rope long enough to touch water at all times.
as scar mentioned toilets are things that shows that there are people there, just doing their thing, and should likely be added to a commercial ship, and with steampunk themes i imagine the most natural thing would be to build a waste incinerator of some sort if you do end up going that way
A couple grindstones on the railing like pulleys would be awesome.
Futurama did a bunch of episodes/shorts in different art styles so as fans, we're a little predisposed to recognize the ship even if it isn't spot on.
Get a whole bunch of armorers, weapon smiths and a cartographer or two on the ship, like deckhands (now that boats actually fly in this update 😆)
Man I wish I had caught the stream, the pickaxe idea was amazing he just did it wrong.
Could've placed a mini gold block on the centre of the copper bulb and placed the picks in a wheel shape around the mini block!
You need a life boat, friend! Could pair it with Scar's crane idea.
The name for the ship should be "The Hot Sky", because its got hot guy colors and its a blimp that uses hot air to fly.
54:24, it's kinda like a parascope. It's not a submarine but I do like it. Or it's like those binoculars you pay 25cents for in a national park to use lol
the nav rrom should just be in the captains chamber, the current nav room should be a bar or merchant area like (etho said) that way it makes sense that the people would walk through that to get from their seats to the viewing deck
I think port is which ever side you crash into port, starboard is the side facing the stars after the ship rolls, fore is where you hide be-fore crashing, and aft is what’s left aft-er crashing…
For the name, I totally suggest the S.S. Hot Air Zeppelin for Aerial Mobility.
For the airship.. A ballroom would be cool. Luxury accomodations for VIPs?
Flip the gold picks over where the gold is against the block and the handle is what you grab to steer. Also use a trap door instead of a full block for the center
Maybe the block he is surviving on needs to magically disappear.
Tricky was the theme song of SSX Tricky
It was an amazing game! I'd even dare say, best sport related game of it's time. SSX 3 was pretty close though.
Hear me out: flying whale
would tie his area with gems really well
Steampunk lifeboats. Use multiple binoculars on armour stands to crest a curved scope to eye height
You should use the blinking binoculars model to make little steampunk robot captain for the ship :)
For the ship I would not make seats like on a plain or train but rather like a dining room. Maybe even with a tiny stage for performances
maybe navigation is part of captains quarter and that room could be a bar?
It would be nice if there was some sort of docking station for the aircraft at the top of the factory when you build it.
i didn’t know double tapping to sprint was weird, i’ve only done it that way for 10 years
A flying Titanic what can possibly go wrong 😂
could make a battle ships game in the gaming district. just a simple one using copper blocks as the ships and lightning rods and end rods to indicate hits or misses
amazing build Tango
If you added a ballista, that could be the anchor too
Under Armour boxer briefs. You'll never wear any other underwear again.
Should have steam punk giraffe playing in his ship.
Even luxurious ships had cannons. What do you think they used to defend all those luxuries from pirates?
You could make such an accurate Wall-E with those binoculars.. so in steampunk cant those be the crew? Like robot wall-e crew. With a gold block, small blackstone slaps, small grindstone and small gold blocks you can get really close 😅.. one like shuffle chroomlinght in the engine, one mopping the floor, one working behind the bar etc..
while the binoculars don't really feel like something the captain would use they remind me a lot if the old coin opperated sight seeing binoculars and if the ship is for passengers then they would be great for them to use
The map secret message. 😂 Jehovah witness
Photoshoot backdrop and old fashioned shutter camera with cloth hood.
your airship needs lifeboats, also your base needs to be the landing hangar for it
So its not just the colour which is very close its also the shaoe and the shaoe of the fins on the back.
Mermaid but bdubs face....make etho the captain
i have toggle sprint, toggle crouch....and auto jump. simply because i grew up with pocket edition of minecraft...and i got so used to it.
1:21:37 the way the music ends when tango says helm is perfect
you could name the airship the HMC Hot Mic
Please put BDubs as a mermaid , as a figure-head, on the front of the ship. I’m sure Cleo could make it happen 😉
Add ropes from the railings up to the balloon. A galley luxury food tables and carts. Life boats. An anchor. (Sailing traditions will always remain. No matter what, there would be an anchor).
Build Cable from your server as the Statue on the front of the airship!! 😂
Maybe an anchor
20:56 well anchoring to water also doesn't really work. The idea is to have the anchor on a long chain so it reaches the ground. ;)
I don't know anything about armor stands but I think they're not locking because you have to click done after
I hope you build a ceremonial cannon for celebrations!
Maybe make it a cargo airship, as it's flying over a factory, delivering all ur resources to the factory?
