Meta Honeypot flairs.

119 Upvotes

To cut down on the increased number of posts involving rule-breaking mods (notably Paper), 3 new post flairs have been introduced for testing.

Posts made using these flairs will be automatically removed.

Don't use them.

EDIT: After 3 weeks, this seems to have been a very successful test, with the vast majority of rule-8 violations blocked by the new filters.

Bedrock Redstone help

Post image
3 Upvotes

I am trying to create a pumpkin farm. In this farm, I want an observer facing a pumpkin so when it grows it sends a signal to a piston to destroy the pumpkin. (I’m aware that traditionally the observer faces the seed but it’s important for this one that it faces the pumpkin). How can I build it so it doesn’t create an infinite red stone clock? I have seen some using note/target blocks that why I have one there. Please help if you can, again I need the observer to face where the pumpkin block will be.

Java Help Wanted Help with Shulker farm

Post image
2 Upvotes

Hey everybody, I built this shulker farm using a tutorial by Adil or something like that and when i transported the shulker as shown in the video it didnt teleport to the correct spot and instead i read a comment detailing to do as shown in the photo (single top slab at the bottom of the farm) and get the shulker there. But for some reason when it came out of the minecart it landed on the slab and is now merged with the redstone torch. any ideas on why its not working? and also how the shulker is landing on and occupied slab?

Java Help Wanted Any idea why the ender pearl stasis chamber with fishing rod doesn't work?

Post image
5 Upvotes

Every time I go through the portal, it activates and teleports me back.

The pressure plate and pearl are on different adjacent chunks. There is a bed and an ender chest on the pearl's chunk as well as the nether portal. I'm on multiplayer 26.2 (with fabric).

The same arrangement work on singleplayer but doesn't on the server, so maybe it's a multiplayer thing?

Thanks in advance

Bedrock Easily Adjustable Distance Sulfur TNT Dupe Cannon

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

8 Upvotes

Made yet another cannon design.
This one launches the cubes by pushing 5-30+ floating cubes into the explosive cube with a glass pane attached to a sticky piston. The cubes used to launch with are attached to leads which is attached to a fence post behind the machine to pull them back after the piston pushes them.
They get pulled into a 2.5 high chamber where snow blocks can be added to make them sink, and reduces the number of cubes pushed, which reduces the launch distance. Wood can be added to the snow blocks sitting at the bottom of the water to make them float, and increase the range of the cannon.
The machine stops the clock once the top dispenser runs out of blocks which also stops it from wasting TNT as long as there’s cubes in the ammo chamber.
At the end of the video, it shows what happens when it runs out of sulfur cubes while the dispenser still has blocks in the ammo chamber, it doesn’t blow up the machine, but it does waste some TNT.

Java Help Wanted Hi! I've created a silent design for a super smelter. However, two specific hoppers just refuse to be loaded with any fuel whatsoever.

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

1 Upvotes

The design works simply by detecting an item in the terminal hopper, stopping flow at the source, then unlocking the hoppers below for a simultaneous load. Once the terminal hopper is empty, the source is unlocked and the cycle repeats. This system is effective for even item distribution across 16 of my 18 furnaces, but two hoppers in specific just refuse to retain items. I cannot see any discrepancies in the redstone, since the whole design is modular (up to 9 furnaces). Do you guys have any thoughts? I'm happy to answer any questions about the design you may have.

Java Help Wanted Quick questions for creeper farm

Thumbnail gallery
2 Upvotes

Just wanna mention first that i did not follow any tutorials except a bit of research on how creeper farms work and how does it spawn creepers exclusively, i did this entirely on my own cuz i find it more fun to do so even if it means it's not the most min maxed design

With that said, i do have an issue with spider spawns, thought on java you have to make sure there are no empty 3x3 spots but i either got my info wrong or really misplaced my carpets

Any quick tips on making the farm some more efficient would be nice too since the rates are a lot slower than what i expected

Java Help Wanted Best way to unload items into a water stream?

Post image

I'm playing on a server with a /shop plugin. I need a way to take the stored iron from my iron farm and dump it into a water stream so I can sell my inventory over and over without moving.

Pictured is my first attempt at a design. This one with 24 hopper carts will dump 4.4 shulkers worth of items about every 22 seconds. Is there a much better design or method out there for what I'm trying to accomplish? Thank you!

Java Help Wanted Need Help With My Tileable Dual-Input Crafter Bulk Storage Hall Slice

Post image
6 Upvotes

I made a similar post last week that some of you may have seen, but the help I received no longer applies to the upgraded version I've been tinkering with.

The basic premise of the design involves aligning an item stream over 2 item filters at once so I can catch both the item and block forms of a resource in a single slice of the hall and compact them for storage.

The slice contains the two aforementioned item filters and the auto block crafter as well as a Shuker loader and a box display and is mirrored about the line of red glass for symmetry.

The main thing I've been having trouble with is finding a compact way to Integrate the auto-crafter and the shulker box refill line between the filters and the shulker loader.

I've been trying to keep the design 15 blocks tall so the water stream is 13 blocks above the floor because that would make it easier to integrate with the other bulk module I made for non compactable items, but I'll be fine if that's not possible.

Feel free to refer other replacement designs for any of the internal components, or even redesign the whole thing from scratch if you want to.

The only non negotiable thing is that I want a design that's 1 wide tileable (1 wide AB tileable is fine too). (It also needs to at least have the 5 components I specified earlier)

Thanks in advance everyone

Java Help Wanted Possible to extract all named mob info?

2 Upvotes

Lost my hardcore world. Didn't think it would happen I guess. It was pretty longterm and I'd like to fly through and look at everything and everyone I've had contact with in the world. I'm sure there will be mobs and things that I forget, I'm just wondering if there's a way to extract information from the files like a list of all the nametagged mobs or maybe even where they would be in the world? Sorry if this isn't the place. Seems like it might be quite technical though

Java Help Wanted My first ever nether hub

2 Upvotes

Hey I’m on a server with multiple friends and I want to build a nether hub but I’m completely new this…

What are some things that you guys wished to have known before starting out

The roof is probably the best spot how does it effect the linked portals in the overworld (like height)

This is an forever world so bases could change and we also don’t have a good “get together” point are there any tips to make it future save? I’ve seen many designs with 4 central portals what are these linked too (aren’t they to close together?)

I’ve seen mostly below roof designs but can you build a “pretty” roof hub or is it not really suited for cosmetic builds

This all probably sounds dumb but I have never done this and I’m pretty new to the game too :(

Bedrock Does higher simulation distance increase or decrease mob farm rates? Bedrock

1 Upvotes

Edit: ive found the answer finally!! So apparently the mob cap related to non structure hostile spawning, checks in a 9x9 chunk radius for the 16+8 mob cap. This means if you build multiple grinders each of which bordering within your simulation range. You can manage to increase the cap. This does improve the rates as well. Ill leave this post up incase any future googlers find this. "Split density farms" is what you should google for more information on this.

Or perhaps maybe it has pretty much no effect at all?

Obviously it effects the spawning radius.

But what about the spawning rates? More blocks to spawn on may not matter if the only viable spawning blocks are within your farm, and it may not matter if you're already hitting the mob cap somewhat frequently.

So if this seems obvious, and "duh it increases the rates", well forgive me.

Also im Weeeelll aware that an 8x or 12x farm that actually takes advantage of the extra sim distance, would be multiplicative in scale of grandiosity required relative to a 4x farm. But mega projects can be fun yaknow. Screw any sim distance besides 4x for a nether farm though lol.

Ps. I tried googling this first so please dont come at me. And comparing farm rates from YouTube videos is unreliable due to BOTH different methods being used. As well as the possibility of innacurate rates being reported either intentionally or unintentionally. Plus "12x/8x mob farm" doesnt lead to search results so I cant even try cross referencing rates even if I wanted to.
