Meta Honeypot flairs.

121 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.

Java Showcase Proof of Concept: Player Controlled Shulker Bullets

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

45 Upvotes

Proof of concept for a set up that lets a player control shulker bullets by vision. Uses a combination of projectile viewing angle encoding and the fact shulker bullets travel to their target's exact coordinates regardless of dimension.

This is still extremely clunky; The effective range is limited since the target needs to be in loaded chunks at all times, and it only really works near the center of the world (since otherwise bullets traveling to the overworld end up very far away from the actual targeting area due to the 8x offset). Additionally, the warden doesn't exactly allow for highly precise targeting, and I ran into many problems with it killing the shulker. Still, I've had this idea since I found out shulker bullets could be somewhat controlled, so I'm glad I was able to execute it!

(floating ender pearls in the video are for ease of keeping chunks loaded, you could replace them with normal chunk loaders if you wanted to do this in survival)

Java Help Wanted suggestions how to increase the rates? 23.5k/h for now (no player interaction

Post image
22 Upvotes

wanna make a medium sized guadrian farm with no player interactions. Took C5's slime pusher, funneling the guardians to fall on pointed dripstones. the green terracotta part are items pushers using carpets and trapsdoors. gonna check next if falling on campfire are faster next.

it is there any other way i could increase the rates without player interaction?

EDIT: answering question and more clarifications
- I'm playing on a Server with friends. so i'm trying to make all of my farm "server friendly. so no 2dimensional farm. Have i tought of it, yes.
- yea why am I transporting the Guardians up the first place XD. I've based the top portion for the farm following two other farm designs which used nether portals. henced my reason to design the drop that high up hehe.
- Yes I should use an alternative killing method lower down and just transport the items up instead. My next question is. what other killing methods are faster??

Just looking for a simple flying machine based sugar cane farm that's large. Produces a lot and relatively cheap to build that uses flying machines as I don't want to have to get a bunch of different Redstone components and I'm also terrible at designing firms so preferably would like to have it. Have a world download or a schematic

Java Help Wanted stationary hopper minecart or chest minecart in contrapion for less lag?

Thumbnail gallery
2 Upvotes

What causes more lag in this situation? Is it the hopper minecart's “sucking” property (picture 3), or the larger number of slots in the chest minecart (picture 2), which has to be checked by the bottom hopper?

It's only necessary because I want to read from the back hopper, which feeds into the crafter at the top. So basically, it's a comparator and a minecart in the same block. (picture 1)

But which cart causes less lag?

*Edit
I can't add a hopper below, because I want to read out the lower hoppers as well.

Bedrock Anyone know how high up i gotta be from the ground and how far i gotta be from any of my build or farms,

So im trying to build this one shulker design that produces 35k shulker per hour, and i want to build it near the center of my world the only problem is idk how far from blocks or builds and how high i have to be inorder to build this farm. Im afraid that once i build this farm the shulkers will teleport to some of my builds/farms because im way too close to it, and i dont wanna redo the entire farm—so im making sure that im safe from that problem.

Does anybody know the answer id really appreciate it

Java Help Wanted Why does my iron farm randomly stop working

The title says it all basically.

I build an iron farm in Minecraft 26.3 and it works fine at first.

I made sure that the villagers slept first before turning it on, it works for a but then just stops spawning iron golems.

the iron farm is nowhere near a village and there are no iron golems wandering around.

Java Help Wanted Middle Villager Won't Sleep

Post image
1 Upvotes

[This is Minecraft Java]

I was following Wattles' Iron Farm tutorial in which he said that the villagers need to sleep on the beds to "claim" them. Problem is, the guy in the middle just keep standing there like in the picture. At first it looks like this guy was trying to jump to the zombie chamber, which I have since sealed behind the dirt wall, but now he just stands there doing nothing.

This Villager chamber is 20 blocks in the air and I have broken every bed in the vicinity including the one in my house (in the background).

What do I do? Should I just "merc the guy" and replace it with a new one?

Buuuut.... over-engineered, pointless, and spaghetti'd redstone is my favorite to play with haha.

All that effort just to make the door open quickly upon entry, yet very late upon exit.

The etho clock is there purely to act as a piston based and-gate. Where a piston is extending a block that blocks the redstone path to the lights, so that way the lights wont get pulsed upon the door being opened when exiting.

Because if the lights got pulsed upon the door being opened when exiting, well because the door is programmed to open LATE when exiting, the lights would pulse, then the door would open, then the lights would pulse again from the power reaching the main circuit in order to open the door.

So i use the and-gate so the lights will only get pulsed by the exit button if the piston isnt activated AND the pulse is activated simultaneously.

So over engineered for no good reason.

If I simply had the door open quickly upon exit just like upon entry, then literally 70% of that redstone isnt neccesary. And the only reason i want it opening late upon exit is so the lights turn off before I leave lol. Thats literally it. No other reason haha.

Designed some geyser elevators while working on my base. Thought it was kinda cool n maybe others might wanna use em too. Prolly a more efficient way to do the redstone but im no Einstein. Prolly not even close to being the first to making these but either way takes like 5 minutes to build if that and very minimal resources.

Java Help Wanted Server Friendly Massive Storage

I am creating a storage system for every item in the game, which obviously would lag if I do my standard hoppers with filters (4+ hoppers per item). I think I might use some sort of multi item filters for less needed items. What are the most lag friendly systems that you enjoy using and are practical for use in a forever world?

Java Help Wanted Is it possible to automatically measure horse's jump height?

12 Upvotes

Hello everyone,

Recently I got interested in horse breeding mechanics, and I am trying to automate the breeding procedure as much as possible.

It is possible to automatically measure the health of the horse by poisoning him and then using a calibrated skulk to count how much damage the horse receive. While for the speed it is possible to exploit the horse pathfinding. A horse on fire will pathfind the closes water source, and it is possible to esily measure the time needed for the horse to reach it.

Both methods have some levels of imprecision, the horse could regenerate part of its health while being poisoned and it could rear up while running, yet they should have a relatively low probability, and in general automating this measurements could speed up quite a lot the horse breeding procedure.

However, I can't find a way to measure the horse jump height without the player interaction. Does anyone know a way to measure this value? Is there anyway to induce the horse to jump at its maximum jump height without the player interaction?

Any input or idea regarding this is highly appreciated, thanks!

TL;DR: Is it possible to induce a horse to jump its maximum jump height without the player interaction? There is any in-game mechanic that allows for horse's jump stats to be measured automatically, and ideally without being tamed?
