I'm sorry, I'm not understanding something. At 1:59, you are talking about the Euler characteristic, but you are mentioning both "corners", and "vertices". I think that might be an error, in that the (4/4)n corners were already dealt with, and then you had to talk about "edges" but you used the word "vertex". Was this an error? Regardless, I can tell this is a great video!
Thanks for bringing this up, I should have clearly said "edges" / "edge" instead of "vertices" / "vertex" at 1:59, that way it is obviously wrong. I have fixed the subtitles and pinned your comment so that others will hopefully notice the error.

But dude... This person should be given a job in mojang. He could easily improve minecraft to a legend of a legenf
Rayden Creed this is cool but a regular Minecraft world size is probably larger than the sun so falling through it would take at least a day gravity would be really strong and this wouldn't be a good representation as it's curve would be basicly null on a small enough area so continue with your mini world

This is legit the coolest thing ever
Lewis Massie what the fuck is cool about this
I'm just a weird maths nerd, don't mind me
everything about this is cool! math rules!
Are you seriously asking what is cool about changing the basic building blocks of a multi-billion dollars game through code and math studies and making an almost entirely different game which obeys more realistic physics and has some interesting properties ? Do you happen to be a highschool american football jock ?
This is cool and I'm shit at math
Now map a flat world onto a klein bottle.
Matrix thank you . your comment warms my heart . also merry christmas
That is impossible cuz minecraft is 3d
+Bluemon
No, actually it is possible, because a klein bottle has a 2d surface. It's just impossible to show a klein bottle in 3d euclidean space without it intersecting itself, so we call it a 4d object.
In code, a klein bottle is basically the same as a torus, except the world flips/becomes mirrored whenever you cross an edge and loop around.
@@animowany111 If there is a sphere is the surface of world, why not to do same with klein bottle?
Wow, that is a REALLY COOL way to get people to get interested in math. That planet seems to have some cool properties! Have you thought on other weird mappings that would make interesting maze-like worlds? That would be an interesting game on its own
Not really a different mapping, but answering a user request I made a hollow-earth style interior world: github.com/Jeija/spheretest/issues/2
But yeah, I never really thought of using special mappings themselves for game mechanics, that's a really interesting idea.
I think you would like my HyperRogue -- it uses the hyperbolic geometry to create many interesting worlds (maze-like and lots of other) and game mechanics (you have to use strategies that would not work in an Euclidean world). You can also experiment with other geometries. Contrary to this video, it is an actual hyperbolic plane/sphere, not a flat world which is just made to look curved.

Why would they? The surface is still flat topologically.
Why doesn't the world look like a torus?
He made it look like a sphere, so it looks like a sphere. He also made it behave like a torus, so it behaves like a torus. It could just as well have been a world that is flat but looks like a sphere, or a world that's a torus that looks flat.
MapsPlus because your perception is warped backwards on one of the axsis
The real question is why isn't it a teapot
It acts like a torus in that after the blocks on the x-axis (east to west) have been wrapped into a circle, it then heads off along the z-axis (north to south) in a straight line and meets itself again on the other side. Rather than thinking of it as a torus, think of it as a cylinder going through a portal. (If it were truly a Torus, and you sat on the 'top' or 'bottom' side (as opposed to the inner or outer side) and walked along the z-axis, you'd veer off course. This does give it a 'spherical' property though, because you can walk in any direction and come back to the starting point.
If you'll watch his other video, you'll notice he goes into how he makes the cubes all look cubic, instead of warped as they would be on an actual sphere when moving up and down. He has to do something similar here, but he can make you see whatever he wants. He need only program a way to display what you can see. This world would look very strange if you could see the whole of it, but at any one time you can see less than half.
Imagine the classic donut shaped torus, and percieve the edge closest to the center and the edge farthest from the center. They should be two circles on the same two dimensional plane. To make a torus look like a sphere, you must simply pull all of the points of the smaller circle through the center and on the other side where the larger circle is. Difficult to undertand, I realize, but that is the shortest, simplest way I could describe what is going on.

I don't deserve to answer you, but your fucking name scared me when I was replying on the CZcams app. Anyhow. He does deserve more views I think everyone should be educated in any way possible even with Minecraft (:

What's about explaining your procedural textures, landscapes principle in Stonequest?
I think, it's interesting theme which will attract more viewers interested in non-cubic representation of voxel games.
You may bait with " Minecraft with 'No cubes' mod becomes better".
How could you make a 2d rectangular world (like terraria) a circle?
Wj11jam imagine a 1 meter wide minecraft world, apply this video to that world.
Its possible yes. Because you are making it a cylinder/tube.
Starbound already did this
Starbound just loops the world infinitely. I was talking about actually making a circle. out of a 2d world.
Yes
I never tought minecraft could lead into a sandbox for game development.
They weren't lying when they said you can do everything
This is Minetest, not Minecraft. Minecraft was in the title to appeal to more people.
Minetest is an open-source voxel-based game engine inspired by Minecraft, Infiniminer and the like.
you must have been so narrow-minded
Lmao minecraft is not open source so not that much
@@joaogomes850 the game in the video is actually minetest as chicken mentioned, minetest is a opensource more modular alternative to Minecraft. it is much better optimized and faster even with older hardware, it also directly supports easy modding and modularity kind of like in Linux like how apt and such work but then graphical.

also, when i am on the inner side of the bagel shape (where the crve is pwards) is what yo did jst invert the bagel shape everytime yo hit a point where it crves outwards, that way it looks like a sphere bt is still a bagel?
If minecraft had this but you where able to choose the diameter of the world you would have endless test and opportunity to do cool things.
someone has to use this in sci-fi minecraft mods so you can actually use rockets to get to other planets and asteroids and stuff

TheNeonGuy they meant with the spherical planet.
Why can you have two trenches on both sides, so it essentially duplicates the same built(s) on the other side giving a better illusion of a sphere?

I've never used Minetest before so excuse me if this is a stupid question, but is your download broken or something because when I sign on to the world it is a dark red color everywhere and as well the view distance is so short, like only a few blocks in front of me, definitely too small to be able to see any curvature to the planet or see it all from high up (and I've tried pressing r and using the plus key to increase the view distance but it still doesn't help). Hopefully someone can help me out with this!

Amazing! :) Shame the name of the video is 'Minecraft' instead of the glorious free MINETEST
SuperPepperMint how do you download the game
read the description...
I love these videos you’ve made. I’ve always thought about this problem and It would definitely work without significantly breaking the rules for the Overworld. Because it would only be a large spherical shell, it wouldn’t be as interesting.
Assuming the Overworld is 60M x 60M meters, the area would be 3.6E15 meters. If you convert that to the surface area of a sphere, the radius would be about 1.7E7 meters. Bedrock (z = 0) is on average 60 meters below the surface, and the building height is capped at z = 125. The ratio in volume of blocks at these two points would only be 1.000020, and 1.000007 in length per side. The distortion effect wouldn’t be noticeable because now you’d be playing Minecraft on a planet 4 times the size of earth.
the ultimate implication of this kind of program is a space like mod for Minecraft with several planets all composed of their own materials and biomes. There could be all different sorts of rockets you could build to fly across space and all new space mobs. Plus alien creatures and infinite number of new biome possibilities. This is the tip of something incredible. Keep at this.
Make this a mod
i bet if you combine immersive portals with a curviture shader you could make a close (and very laggy) replica of this effect, unless you made all directions looping
its like illusion
it looks but it isnt, its mathemathics
Dude when you explained how to get to the house when there's a trench, but instead you just walked away to get to it, that was trippy
Nice video man!
Top 10 questions science still can’t answer:
Porcupine hair flatard?
1. what is he talking about because he is just saying random stuff
Even after watching this, and your more mathematical video, I still don't quite understand how a Torus can look like a sphere. But if you make this a playable mod for actual PC Java-Edition Minecraft, I'll have your babies. I'll grow a womb and have them, on the spot, right when you publish the mod.
Or just use Minetest
Nice video! I really liked it!
This video is amazing! My two favorite things, math and Minecraft, all in one!
Also, what is the music you have playing in the background at the end?
i think they should rewrite minecraft in a better game engine so we can have things like this, and better optimization
Or just use Minetest
i want this to be in minecraft 2.0
fuck no
fuck no
It will be awesome but only if it's optional
Musashi Kaneko that sounds gay
+Almighty 3076 yes
What a plot twist at the end when he reveals this is Minetest (I figured it when I saw the Jordach player skin): I've worked with the engine for years now, and actually dreamed of creating planet worlds in it or something similar. I did not expect such a modification for the engine, and you've seriously done some wonderful work there!
Regarding the sphere projection issue, which I actually learned about now from this video. My plan wasn't to curve the voxel interpretation algorithm, but to simply have planets build out of blocks normally. Of course doing it this way would introduce a major issue: You would need to to pull the player in diagonal directions in order to properly simulate gravity, or suddenly turn them around at 90* angles past a certain distance... both are equally bad approaches so yeah, there is no easy solution. Other than your torus approach which is actually an ingenious fix you found!
Can someone confirm if the mod in the description still works, or has an updated version somewhere?

Morty Face hi
no they have been stored as a tool to explain toroidal planets
The cut in the circle reminded me of when the oldest version of MCPE had a glitch when you would play multiplayer,it would glitch and break and so many of those deep holes would appear
You could have the torus world behave more like a sphere by duplicating/rotating the map across the north/south edge, that way if the player continues walking north, once they pass that line (or the north pole), from the player's perspective they will now be walking south. As long as all the changes to one side are reflected on the other the illusion is seamless. The only issue then is if multiple players are on the same planet, they could be in the same location but not see each other because one may be on the duplicate side
*centripetal
Centrifugal force doesn't actually exist and is just due to inertia and the centripetal force.

How do you change planet size
Is there any minecraft mod/shaders that allows you to play the game with this circular/planet-ish/GoPro effect?
Since than is fake sphere planet, this planet can't rotate by it own axis, just like No Mans sky.
can you make it bigger? like real earth or at least as big as moon?
I would very much appreciate if you could provide a precompiled Ubuntu release. I am never able to compile it properly.
Please fix a bug where you could see through the dirt when u dig a hole in planets center
Im gonna make an optical illusion sphere now, my idea is that when you reach a certain point it would teleport you to a changed area, but it mirrors where you were so you can still build stuff, but when you get to the end it will loop you back around, so it will basically simulate a sphere
This is one of the best things i have seen in a long long time
i find this quite interesting and I think I found a way to make it behave more like a sphere than a torus. instead of wrapping around normally on the y axis, it connects to itself but 180 degrees away. it adds more distortion but it fixes the trench thing im pretty sure.
It's much easier to think of the toroidal topology as a repeating square map.
If you go to the top and continue, you teleport at the bottom. If you go to the far left edge, you teleport to the right edge.
This also means the section about the trench isn't entirely true (5:50) - if you chop the world down the middle from left to right, you can just go to the top/bottom edge to get to the other side. The same thing applies from left to right. The example shown as cutting the bagel into two pieces is actually creating two trenches - the surface has two cuts: one on the inside ring, and one on the outside. Making a trench would be more akin to slicing half-way through the bagel around the outside.
Also to add to this, digging straight down to the other side from (x, y) would actually lead you to (x+w/2, y) where w is the width of the square.
Think of this as a 4x4 square wrapped around into a cylinder, then that cylinder (being four blocks tall) is wrapped around into the taurus shape, so the result is a 3d square with an inside, top, outside, and bottom. Label the left, top, right and bottom as 1, 2, 3, 4. If you are on the left outside, and dig straight down, you'll be on the left outside... you start at (3, 2) and finish at (1, 2). 3+4/2=5, but there's only four sides so 5 remainder 4 is 1, so (1, 2)
and another thing again... traveling around this world takes longer diagonally than it does horizontally or vertically. The distance is multiplied by sqrt(2) because of the hypotenuse being longer
How did you do that beginning
I not challenge math
Just want to be able to have a thing like that
Eco somehow pulls off the spherical square world. Do you they do they also make a torus? or do they use a different method?
do u renember spere in minecraft using commands
can someone please clarify the part at 5:00, because it just looks wrong

This is the same problem the developers of Starmade had when creating a planet type other than the flat type, they settled on dodecahedrons.
Amazing work! Mathematics + Video Games!!
where can I download?
Then how do they make spheres out of quads AKA square polygons
4:46 where those block things from?
Suppose one has a rectangular box of voxels. Number the voxels with integer indices x and y on the surface of the world (with the +X axis pointing toward the East and the +Y axis pointing toward the North), and with integer index z in the up-down direction (where z=0 on the surface and z < 0 below the surface).
Suppose we have a small world of -1000
I think that it's one of the most impressive minecraft videos i've ever seen. Congratulations for this video.
I have a two question:
1 - Why does you use a torus to solve this problem if this one also streches lines. It has elliptical, parabolical and hyperbolical curvatures and you'd have the same problem as you said in video (Groenland is wider than it actually is due the deformation of lines)
2 - Is there some computational limitation on use conformal mappings to get the spherical minecraft world?
Conformal Mappings preserves angles (isometric applications) and I think it's possible to make two Stereographic projection at the poles north and south. And using diffeomorphism between these two maps it could be possible get a parametrization of a sphere onto two planes, where theses two planes also are conected.
I don't know how it would be done but that's my doubt.
Again, congratulations for the video. I really love this
1 - Well, we need some three-dimensional shape with a Euler characteristic of 0. When you look at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler_characteristic, you will find that there just aren't that many options and that a Torus is the one that behaves most like a sphere while not actually being a sphere.
2 - Euler characeristics tell us that it is *not* possible to tile a sphere with rectangles / squares, no matter how hard you try. So while what you're suggesting might be possible in theory, there will be places where we don't have a regular square grid on that sphere. Common map projections (e.g. Mercator) have this problem at the poles. If there was any way to tile a sphere with squares, as you suggest, then you'd make several hundreds of years of research into mapping obsolete ;)
As a geographic student I love your approach! Thank you so much
how did you get it round?
Can I download the map?
can you give us world download?
didn't realize it was a game itself
Very informative! Thanks
So heres a question, i know you can make spheres in the vanilla game, so why is it impossible to have a sphere world using such tactics? Im pretty sure there is mods that can change direction of gravity (like walk on walls, ect...) so is there a reason why this cant be applied made spheres?
Is rhere a compiled version for android?
