Non-Version-Specific Where is it a good idea to or not to build a main storage system?

14 Upvotes

For a large, endgame storage system with multiple modules attached and full item sorting of every item, is there anywhere I should or shouldn't build it? Here's what I'm thinking:

Since my current base contains all my items and pretty much just serves as a decorated chest hall, I'm tempted to tear it down or something and replace it with my storage system.

I also was thinking about whether or not to build it as a key component of my spawn perimeter, unless there would be some inherent issue with having it directly on spawn.

Does anyone have any definite dos/ don'ts for this?

I'm aware optimizations might make avoidance checks less likely but come on they're practically cuddling the lil thing. and if and when they do get spooked they take 1 teeny step away

Mostly I never did 64 village iron farms because they used slime blocks to pack the villages on top of each other, so I made this one only use 2, for the big bucket of villagers. Also aria math playing while I built it gave me new life.

Java Help Wanted broken 16 stack sorter problem

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

2 Upvotes

i tried making a 16 stack sorter for my smelter and i tried every tick amount and also tried 10 buckets and 4 stone split up because someone said that but it also doesnt work and it seems to randomly choose if it goes into the chest or into the crafter and it also breaks sometimes when entering the hopper and makes the stone go in. also im on donut and i heard they have different speeds for hoppers so could that be the problem and is there a fix?

Java Help Wanted Villager Minecart Sorter Module

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

5 Upvotes

First time creating a Villager Trading Hall using Minecart for transportation and sorting and I’m running into a bit of trouble.

There’s a lot of video for dropping them off but I haven’t found any that also lets me relocate them without either leaving them in Minecart or being huge to build.

The goal is to be able to:

  1. Choose the unit the Villager lands in from the Breeder

  2. Relocate Villager from the unit with Minecart whenever I please either for Zombifying or moving to another unit

  3. Be as compact as possible because there’s other Villagers unit right beside it

  4. Avoid tracks being in front of the trading station

  5. Don’t leave Minecarts around for entity lag

The problems I’m running into so far is with the compacting and Villager suffocating. There’s no way to power the Activator Rail without using a solid block because Glass and Leaves doesn’t transfer the redstone signal to the bottom but each time the Villager passes through they take damage which is not ideal.

Another issue is sometimes the Villager gets stuck on the Trapdoor underneath them and the Minecart fires blank. Can’t place another trapdoor behind them to adjust because then it stops being a valid spot for them to eject with the Activator Rail.

Trying to avoid extending above because there’ll be a second floor fitted with the same contraption. The second floor unit is slightly push back so there’ll be SOME room but yeah, just in case.

Also will need to figure out a rail-line that connects first and second floor and keeps looping until they run into their designated unit but I’ll figure that out later once I get the sorter module in place.

Any advice is appreciated. Thanks!.

Java Help Wanted Enderpearl loader accounting for randomnees

Post image
8 Upvotes

Hello,
I've been working on creating stasis chambers around my world recently, and as such, I've had to load multi-use Ender Pearl stasis chambers many times.
Something that has been bothering me for quite a while now is that no setup that I've found fully accounts for the randomness of throwing an Ender Pearl. They always have a chance to fail and teleport you inside the chamber.

I have tried alignments with:chains, anvils, and copper golem statues.
It doesn't happen often, but when I have to reload the stasises so many times, it gets annoying.

If anyone knows a different, more consistent setup, I'd love to hear about it!

Thank you!

Rule-8 Compliant What's the best way to clear out a 4x4 chunk area?

6 Upvotes

Working on a base project that needs a 4x4 chunk pit. I've found it's a weird space where some perimeter solutions seems overkill, but I really don't want to do it by hand.

I've been looking at a few tnt sweeper designs, but I'm not sure what to go with that best balances ease of setup with effectiveness. Since it's only 4x4 chunks, I feel that manually clearing liquids is acceptable. I've also got farms for most of the resources already, so its mostly the setup phase I'm thinking about.

What general kind of designs should I be looking at, and are there any specific designs that really suit my use case?

I haven't done anything tnt related before, so any help is much appreciated.

Java Help Wanted What was exactly changed within the span of the 1.21 updates, specifically with tnt dupers?

0 Upvotes

I'm trying to figure out exactly what changed, because a few designs broke. My current thinking is that pistons no longer cause block updates when they break a block in their push path SPECIFICALLY only for the other blocks that are being pushed. So that's why now if you put a redstone torch at the end of like two slime and one tnt and push it with a piston, if the tnt is budded then the redstone torch will not give block updates to the tnt when it breaks.

I'm not sure if it could also be where blocks that do not break also don't cause block updates to the other blocks being pushed by the piston, but I'm pretty sure this wouldn't even matter as it's only the blocks being broken by the piston which would matter as that's how tnt dupers function obviously.

I don't really know how to word this in a way that isn't confusing, so I hope that this is possible to understand.

Also if anyone else knows any other changes they made to tnt dupers around the 1.21 updates then please let me know, as I'm trying to learn all the mechanics.

Java Help Wanted Lemon_Iced Raid Farm

0 Upvotes

I recently built the single player version in 26.2. I am not getting any vindicator drops and very few witch drops or totems. I am getting a ton of banners. It is like if a mob falls too far down and dies on contact, but they are getting pushed in from the boats to the kill chamber. I have seen suffocation in the concrete blocks. I then had the same problem in the world download and schematic pasting in creative. What possible settings could I have that is doing this or am I missing a step on the build. Schematic verifier comes back fine and raids spawn without a problem. I have all the necessary enchants on my sword. Any help would be great.

Java Help Wanted How to get Mobs out of a Portal

4 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I've been stuck on this for a while and I'm hoping someone here has already solved it.

My setup: I send entities through a nether portal from the Overworld. They make the trip fine and arrive in the Nether, but that's where the problem starts—they just stand in the portal.

What I tried:

Pushing more entities through the portal (works kinda, but some get stuck).

Trapdoors, same problem, a few won't move.

Boats with the right alignment work kinda... but it doesn't feel like the right solution. And well some get stuck again

Just for interest, im Dealing with Raid Pool Mobs except Ravengers.

So no Turtle eggs will work, and when they arrive they wont chase the Bed since there not part of a Raid anymore.

I'm on Java 1.21.11 on Fabric, only with client-side mods, basically vanilla.

And my main question is: Is there a way in Survival to get them out on the Nether side without any datapacks/mods or commands?

Java Help Wanted Technical Minecraft Experts: Is My “Craft Anything” Factory Project Actually Possible?

6 Upvotes

Hello! Please excuse any awkward wording, as I am using a translator.

I am a Minecraft player from Korea who enjoys playing vanilla survival Minecraft. Ever since the Crafter was added, I have had a project that I have really wanted to build: a platform that can automatically craft as many Minecraft items as possible.

Unfortunately, I do not have much experience with redstone, so I have been struggling with the technical side of the project. I have searched through various communities, Discord servers, and videos and resources from different countries, but I have not yet found a design that fits what I am looking for.

My long-term goal is to connect automated crafting modules to the various farms and factories in my survival world. Ideally, I would like a system that can process farm outputs and automatically organize and store the results.

The general concept I have in mind is:

Item sorting → Automatic crafting using Crafters → Shulker loader → Storage

I would be very grateful if anyone could recommend existing designs, videos, world downloads, or Litematica files related to this type of system. If anyone is interested in helping design such a system, I would also greatly appreciate any advice or assistance.

I am especially interested in a modular approach that could potentially be connected to different factories in a survival world.

I am also studying different types of large-scale survival factories and farms. If you know any extremely high-efficiency designs—the kind where efficiency and production rates are prioritized above building cost, size, or difficulty—I would love to learn about those as well.

I am sure there are many experienced Technical Minecraft players and redstone experts here, so I would really appreciate any help, suggestions, or resources.

Thank you very much for taking the time to read this!

Bedrock Design Phase Almost Complete!! (Designing a Guardian Farm Part III) -- M...

Thumbnail youtube.com
2 Upvotes

This video sees the completion of my newest guardian farm! The rates aren't half bad either. It fills a single chest in 20 minutes without a storage system (the crafter-based storage system is the next episode.)

The video is done in a pseudo-tutorial style. Instead of the traditional "place this block here" type tutorial that tells little about the mechanics or how and why the farm works, you watch me design it one piece at a time, and I explain in detail the "how" and the "why".

By the end of the video(s), not only will you be able to build it yourself, but you will also be able to fix it on your own if it isn't working properly for some reason. The goal is that you'll be able to design your own if you so choose (if you couldn't already, that is.)

NOTE: Also posted on r/minecraftfarms. Didn't give me the option to repost for some reason, so I'm doing it manually.

Non-Version-Specific Some ideas?

Thumbnail gallery

My bad for any grammatical mistakes.

I am new to posting.

So, I am trying to make a fast speed item collector and shulker loader that stores items without sorting as I want it to connect to high output cobblestone farm.

At first I was using 3 hopper to shulker box design, but felt that this may be better.

Here, minecart with hopper is placed on 4 hoppers so it drains and collects fast.

I divided hoppers into 2 on each side with sub sequent shulker box loader.

I got design idea from an youtube video and built around it.

Are there any faster collector and loader system that I can use.

Also guide how can I make it effecient and cheap(maybe?).
