BUILDING AN AUTOMATED FARM
So I've been working on this automated farm in #minetest/luanti for a while now. And here on this video I be showing you how you can own and make one yourself laying out the step by step process.
Although it's not a hundred percent #automated because you'll have to do just the planting all by yourself because for now there is no way you can do that automatically. At least none that I know of just yet.
Okay so, you'll get every single detail in the video but I'm just going to leave a couple of those I believe I must have skipped from the video down here as a description.
First it took me about 3 days (real time) and about 13 days (luanti time) from start to finish which of course yours should be faster because I wasn't really stable during the whole process more over if you're pro!.
ITEMS USED
- sand (not dirt)
- buckets of water
- a couple blocks (cobblestones)
- pistons (to push sand upwards)
- redstone dust (serves as wires)
- hoppers (to collect the farm produce)
- chests
- levers (serves as power/electricity)
These are the basic things you'll need to setup the farm.
It all started from making the ground look sloppy in other for the water to flow downwards and that's going to help us harvest and push down the farm produce in to the hoppers.
The hoppers are then placed properly to ensure farm produce move in accordance directly into the chest which of course the video explains everything.
Another thing I didn't really cover in he video was how I crafted those items which may be necessary for people who don't know and I'll drop a few screenshots here.
HOPPERS
These devices collect items above them and store it to themselves or a chest placed to their direction.
PISTONS
They can move blocks when powered by redstone power, and the sticky ones can move and receive blocks to themselves when powered by redstone and vice versa.
Just let me know if you try this out and how it worked out for you and as usual, if you're interested in fin games like this, you can join us on the luanti minetest server on address: 159.65.80.112 and port: 30000
Or better still, join us in the Neoxan city discord
