  • FTA:

    The big news this month is that “conveyor belts have unlocked the Y axis” in Terraria 1.4.5, meaning that you can now send items up and down along with using them to transport goods horizontally. Not only will that make them a lot easier to use generally, making it easier to navigate across long distances, but the demonstration also shows them hooked up to a chest, allowing you to instantly store all your transported items. That’s a massive convenience improvement, and will almost certainly lead to some fascinating new creations.

    Dividing by a fraction is the same as flipping one it on its head and multiplying it.

    0.25/0.5 is (1/4)/(1/2)

    To multiply it we’d flip one, either works but for this example I decided to flip the second one: (1/4) * (2/1)

    The top half of the fractions (numerators) multiply together, then the bottoms (denominators) multiply together. (1*2)/(4*1) = 2/4 which reduces to 1/2
