TLDR

Automating Farming with Redstone in Minecraft (5)What Redditors are Saying

Automating Farming Using Redstone in Minecraft

TL;DR

  • Automating farming in Minecraft using redstone can involve various mechanisms and contraptions.
  • For sand duplication, a checkerboard of dripleaves and turned-on levers can be used in Bedrock edition [2:1].
  • Fully automating potion farms can be challenging due to the need for ingredients like nether wart that cannot be easily automated [3:2].
  • Netherrack automation is not possible without the use of mods or datapacks [4:4].
  • Adding auto-kill functionality to a mob farm can be achieved through mechanisms like lava blades, hopper minecarts, or piston-based systems [5:1], [5:3], [5:4].

Sand Duplication

In Bedrock edition, sand duplication can be achieved by using a checkerboard pattern of dripleaves and turned-on levers. This allows for the duplication of sand when leaving and reentering the portal [2:1].

Automating Potion Farms

Fully automating potion farms can be challenging, especially in terms of ingredient production. While brewing itself can be automated, obtaining ingredients like nether wart or blaze rods can be difficult to automate. Some suggestions include using witch/raid farms for bottles or piglin trading for water bottles [3:1], [3:8].

Netherrack Automation

Automating netherrack production is not possible without the use of mods or datapacks. Create Crafts & Additions is an example of an addon that adds a netherrack crafting recipe [4:4].

Auto-Kill Functionality in Mob Farms

Adding auto-kill functionality to a mob farm can be achieved through various mechanisms. These include lava blades, hopper minecarts, or piston-based systems. Each mechanism has its own advantages and considerations, such as preserving drops or allowing manual killing when desired [5:1], [5:3], [5:4].

Bedrock sand farm automation

Posted by Candid_Emu_3951 · in r/redstone · 3 months ago

So i was scrolling through YouTube and i saw a short that described a sand duplication glitch farm and because i am very jealous of you java edition players regular sand dupers i tried it out and thankfully unlike 90% of the farms found in YouTube shorts it actually worked (for bedrock players its a checkerboard of dripleaves and turned on levers and you put the sand on the dripleaves) the thing is the way that it works is that every time you leave and reenter the portal it duplicates the sand so i was wondering if theres a way to continuously leave and reenter a portal whether it be from minecarts or pistons (a picture would be really helpful) also every time i log out the sand dissapears from the dripleaves is there a way to prevent that?

It would take a minimum 2 players because one would have to load your witch farm to generate those drops and the other would have to load the blaze farm to get blaze rods. Aside from that, I think you can cram every farm for every ingredient into the areas you're loading and send them to one central location to brew. Your witch farm and blaze spawned would have to be relatively close to each other too because you will have to send your items from one farm to the other dimension and have your potion farm loaded by one of the players ideally.

How would you automate getting the sand to smelt into glass to craft into bottles? You could use a witch/raid farm to get bottles directly in the overworld, but you'd need a blaze farm as well in the nether running at the same time.

That's without even thinking about the ingredients...

I saw once that you can make netherrack from cobblestone lava and crushed netherrack thing and when you crush netherrack there is 1 for100% and second for 50%so you could do loop and after a while it should have enough so you could take it. But making mining machine in minecary would be easier + you could use it in overvorld.

I've also thought about that, but the problem there was the infinite mining of netherrack.

  1. How to make such a contraption. If I dig an infinite tunnel then it needs to place blocks as bridges(if it's in cart shape)
  2. The more I farm, the more unefficient it gets
  3. I need to supply that contraption

If that's true, then OP should probably just make a massive tunnel bore, mine a couple double chests of nether rack, and use funnels to deposit them into the factory.

extend it 1 block down so that they die automatically from fall damage and add pistons on the layer that the hoppers are currently at and make them push and pull slabs placed on the bottom half, then if you want to kill them manually just do it from the side where it has 2 blocks

Good idea but I want to be able to afk here and 24 block drop won't kill mobs with armor, chicken jockeys and witches and they'll just fill up the mob cap.

I'm temporarily using campfires now, when I get some slime balls I'm gonna make one of the side walls open, start a water stream from the other side and drop the mobs down into another killing area with campfires.

If only you could push hoppers with pistons lol, it'd be a lot simpler.

You can place a hopper minecart in a cauldron, and use a piston to move that. Or If the bottom blocks can be scaffolding, you can fit a hopper minecart inside the block, and move it with slime blocks or something like that

What I've done in the past is have the lava run a distance so you only have the last 2 blocks of lava flow in the kill chamber.

Does anyone else just refuse to make farms?

Posted by NyxiesPuppet · in r/Minecraft · 5 months ago

Everyone talks about having an iron farm, a gold farm, etc. Some people make bamboo farms, cactus farms, creeper farms.

I understand how (and YouTube is always an option) but to me it just takes the fun out of it. I built a sugarcane farm in one of my worlds because I wanted to fill a library with books, but I found it easier/more fun to just go find the stronghold and a mansion and loot their books. Whether that saved time or not idk.

Farms just seem like cheating to me. Not in a you-dont-deserve-your-achievements type of cheating, but a this-takes-all-of-the-fun-out-of-it cheating. Idk. I feel so much more accomplished with my stacks of iron after cave diving for a few hours versus the several chests from an iron farm. The Redstone and mechanics of farms can be pretty impressive, but to me getting resources is half the fun.

Also, farms are generally ugly. Lol. I've seen youtubers make giant builds around them so you don't have to look at them, but that in itself is just too much time and resources when I could just get all those resources over time.

Maybe I just enjoy exploring more than the people who would rather get straight to doing big builds.

It is usually like this.

I am a miner and an industiralist. I will make factories and will go deep.

One friend just explores. He will just go on zhe surface and bring back animals and other stuff (modded server so we got alex mobs and a lot of other stuff)

One is a builder. He legit does not know how to read coordinates in game but he knows how to use wood for buildings. He will also breed villagers, trade and do the boring stuff. He likes that.

Personally I would just want to mine. Let me loose into a cave and I will come back with a ton of stuff, but no one knows how to effectievly build a farm like me (especially with modded stuff).

It's great that Minecraft supports so many different styles of play, and I guess that's one reason why it's been so popular for so long.

Personally, I play almost exclusively in creative designing farms and redstone contraptions.

I've also heard people say that grinding Minecraft from start to Ender dragon can get a bit samey after a while. Farms are a good way of adding variety or late game goals to a Minecraft world - especially if you don't always build the same designs every time - and eventually start to design your own

I'm the same. I love building farms, and I make them way more complicated so that I can make them look cool, have controls, etc. I like building those kind of mechanical things. I have a big lab where all my farms are, and I care about how it all looks. Similarly, I love building minecart rail infrastructure, even though I have Elytra to get around.

You can't make a farm for everything. So while now it's easy for me to get iron and gunpowder, other things are still difficult, so there's still the element of having valuable resources you use sparingly, using plentiful materials for big projects, etc.

Finally, I like the "lore" of having an industrialized homestead with farms and prosperity, but it's still a cold survival world out there beyond it. For instance, I have a settlement on a mushroom island which is 22k blocks away from my city where the farms are. It's not trivial to travel between them, so I either have to stock up for my journey, or find materials locally, if I'm far away.

The farms make things easier if you are local to them, but I still feel like I have all the elements of a survival world.

I think the best automated farms for crops like wheat and potatoes are villager powered because those are the only way to automate them that don’t require the player to do the replanting. Wheat is a bit complicated though because by default when villagers harvest wheat they convert it to bread before trying to trade it with other villagers.

I found one turorial that should do what you’re looking for: https://youtu.be/iM1GRMtxit8?si=ehv5smx_yW1mIkGH . This farm uses villagers for auto harvesting but picks up the wheat with hoppers before they can convert it to bread and then dispenses seeds back to the villagers so that they can replant.

Corbert · 6 months ago

though, especially for larger designs, i'd recommend just completely filling up the villager's inventory with seeds.

that way they can't pick up the wheat at all and you can simply collect it with a couple of hopper minecarts. saves you a ton of hoppers, is less laggy, and you don't have to worry about how you get the seeds back up to the villagers.

Yeah, just dispense water on them occasionally. It's hardly worth it though, wheat is a pretty terrible food source, and you have to replant it by hand.

Yes, yes, 1000% yes. I almost always make raid farms my third farm I go for (after iron and slime) - the drops you get from it are all useful. Emeralds for trading, enough gunpowder for my mid-game, glowstone for nice lighting, and of course, redstone for more farms. I always use ianxofour's stacking raid farm - it works like a dream and is very simple for the drops it produces. Only 1 problem, it's a bit dangerous. If you don't have ALL the protections ian lists in the video, vexes can and will kill you eventually. For this reason, if I'm AFKing, I like to enter the farm with only my sword - those are replaceable since I have villagers.

You want a gearshift, toggle latch, and redstone contacts.

Connect the redstone contacts on both ends of the farm, make sure they both feed into the Toggle Latch, which in turn feeds into the gearshift. The Toggle Latch with activate the gearshift when it hits one end, and deactivate it when it hits the other, alternating the rotation going into the gantry, and therefore switching its linear direction.

For some reason the redstone contacts "stick" to each other. There's no connection and change direction. They simply connect, become rigid, change the redstone signal, and don't budge unless I break one of the redstone contacts. If you're comfortable enough for me to DM you pictures I took of my build so you could help me, I would appreciate it very much.

Last I looked into it, broadly speaking, for automatic farms, the ranking was as follows:

  1. Stacking Raid Farm
  2. Multi-Witch Hut Farm
  3. Regular Raid Farm
  4. Single Witch Hut Farm

Alternatively, depending on what you mean by a "huge" amount, trading with clerics might be an option. You'd need a clicking script to automate it, but void trading with Clerics (or just having a large number of clerics, if you don't wanna use glitches) can outpace even a Stacking Raid Farm for redstone acquisition if done fast enough, at 24 redstone per trade.

How to automate farming using redstone in minecraft

Here are some key considerations for automating farming using redstone in Minecraft:

  1. Redstone Basics: Familiarize yourself with the basics of redstone, such as redstone dust, repeaters, comparators, and redstone torches. These components are essential for creating automated systems.

  2. Water and Crop Placement: Set up a water source near your crops to hydrate the farmland and ensure optimal growth. Place your crops in a pattern that allows for efficient harvesting and replanting.

  3. Observer Blocks: Use observer blocks to detect changes in the growth stages of your crops. This can trigger redstone circuits to automate harvesting or replanting.

  4. Piston Mechanisms: Utilize pistons to break mature crops automatically. When powered by redstone, pistons can push or pull blocks, allowing for automated harvesting.

  5. Hopper Systems: Incorporate hoppers into your design to collect harvested crops and transport them to a storage system. Hoppers can also be used to replant seeds automatically.

  6. Timing and Redstone Clocks: Create redstone clocks or pulse generators to control the timing of your automated farming system. This ensures that crops are harvested and replanted at the desired intervals.

Recommendation: To automate farming using redstone in Minecraft, consider building a simple system using observer blocks, pistons, hoppers, and redstone circuits. Start with a small-scale design and expand as needed. There are also numerous tutorials and guides available online that provide step-by-step instructions for more complex automated farming setups. Experimentation and creativity are key to finding the best solution for your specific needs.
