  • The Minecraft Survival Guide Season 3 continues in Minecraft 1.20!
    This tutorial will show you how to set up a simple automatic sugar cane farm using redstone components and a hopper minecart for lossless collection.
    Sugar Cane is a useful resource to farm automatically, providing paper for the player to craft books and maps, a trading supply for Librarian and Cartographer villagers, and eventually firework rockets for Elytra travel.
    We cover a few essential redstone components and how they can work together for a simple but effective early game sugar cane farm, which we build in a step by step tutorial. We also take an introductory look at minecarts and rails, decide whether to build farms on the surface or underground, and

      That's one of my biggest gripes about it being called simple or "just a kid's game." It's very pixilated and made of cubes, but the complexity of the game and the freedom to do whatever makes it a game for everyone. You could simply farm and collect things by hand, or you could automate the entire thing. There's minigames, logic, skill, and even programming built in with the use of command blocks. There's just so much to this game especially nowadays that people seem to be unable to look past the "simple" game people think it is. It can be simple, but it could be very complex as well.

      It's a great way to avoid using minecarts, but it might inadvertently add to any possible lag you might notice. Hoppers constantly check for entities above them, and using a ton can cause quite a bit of lag. Not a problem if using them sparingly or having them spread out, but once you've grown in your world enough it'll become very noticeable, even causing the game to crash if used excessively.

    Something that I figured out myself is that you can plant sugar cane on mud, and just simply place a hopper under the mud, it'll pick up the items on the block because mud sinks down below one block. Just in case anyone doesn't know how to get mud without a mangrove swamp: interact with a piece of dirt with a water bottle

It leads into the thought of players figuring out how and why certain redstone contraptions work the way they do, and adapting for their specific situation and preferences, which is really helpful as a step beyond even a block-by-block tutorial.

    I've been playing alongside this series and it has been really fun to do. I'm using the same seed, building the buildings you do and trying to keep pace. I built a path with lightposts to- and a boardwalk around- the lake where the fishing hut is. I also built a cave spider farm where the double spawner was in the cave, but that's the only stuff I have done out of sync with you. It's been nice holding myself back from racing to get to The End and simply enjoying the early game. I have liked needing to find the big iron ore veins for extra iron rather than racing to build an iron farm. I know those things will come later on in the series, so my plan is to wait and explore and enjoy this phase.

    So in regards to using the noteblocks to break the sugarcane individually, it's slightly more beneficial than just maybe preventing something from growing while the piston is extended. Sugarcane goes through several growth stages before it actually grows, so if you break all of the 2 tall sugarcane when one of them grows to 3 tall, you actually do lose out on some of the growth stages that may have already happened

  • @waveclaw
    @waveclaw Рік тому

    Always an interesting video! Built this with additional rows for bamboo, melons and pumpkins. I used the mud trick to avoid minecarts and keep with hopper chains. The hopper lines in this farm are short enough to not worry about MST loss from hoppers checking for inventories above them. A hopper minecart entity has more impact than 8-16 hoppers.
    Fun fact: you can rename a pair of chests in an anvil and when you place them down, you will get a renamed double chest. So you can track that you have open the sugar cane chest, melons chest, etc. This doesn't work with Ender Chests, though, just chests and barrels.

  • @MrTikkle86

    An alternative for the noteblock method is placing a solid block 1 block lower where you would put the noteblock. Place redstone on those blocks just like normal and place solid blocks on top of the redstone line so they connect to the output of the observers. Somehow this will only trigger the piston below the activated observer. So much cheaper than using noteblocks.
    Of course with this method you can't use pixs minecart trigger mechanism. you would have to use the cheap method that uses 1 powered rails on both sides that keeps the minecart swinging from left to right.

    I feel like something worth mentioning is that if you're using hopper minecarts, try to limit the number of chunks (16x16 areas visible with with hitting F3 and G at the same time) that it traverses. Minecarts can occasionally have funky behavior if they cross from a loaded chunk into an unloaded chunk that can occasionally break farms. This is less of a problem than it used to be, but absolutely can still happen.
    It's also much less likely to happen with a design like this that has the minecart stationary most of the time, but honestly that just makes it more annoying when it *does* happen.

    Hey Pix, instead of using note blocks, you can put another building block one below where the note block would have been and some Redstone dust on top of that block. The increase in rates is actually fairly significant. It also allows you to build them back to back. It would prevent the collection system from working though, as you mentioned in the video (I really liked that idea for a collection system), but I just use powered rails across the entire system so that the hopper Minecraft is always running. Great video as always, I am always looking forward to your next video.

    • @TheRealWormbo
      @TheRealWormbo Рік тому

      I agree that the rate increase is more significant than it sounded in the video. The reason is that sugarcane has internal grow stages (8 or 16 or something in that range), and harvesting the second block when it is almost ready to grow will reset the growth by a lot.

    The noteblocks are not needed for the individually firing pistons - leave the solid blocks behind the observers, but then place a line of blocks below the pistons in back so that you can place a line of redstone behind the pistons. The pistons won't connect to the redstone line, but will get powered via quasi-connectivity from the block below the redstone. Much cheaper and easier than noteblocks.

    Hey Pix, for a quiet lossless system you can plant sugarcane on mud and hoppers pick up through mud
    Would be good to bring up on an episode about mud

      I'd argue that the pistons are the noisy part of the system, not the minecart. And you need the pistons for harvesting.

    The reason the noteblock way is more efficient is because sugarcane requires a certain number of random ticks to age up. If it's on stage 2 and gotten 4/7 random ticks updates and you break it, you've wasted more than 1/2 of a growth cycle.

    The note block version is more efficient than stated in the video.
    Sugar cane grows when it receives 16 random block ticks. If you break a two-tall stem because a nearby stem reached three-tall, you'll only get one sugar cane, even if it's on 15/16 random ticks (And it gets reset to 0/16 random ticks).
    That's roughly half a sugar cane lost per two-tall stem that you break. The note block does not have those losses.

      @@Timelord79 To be fair, beetroot is slightly easier to make renewable than them; at least without bone meal. Just plant yet another field. So I honestly would use that instead of rose bushes for red dye if I ever needed it.
      Poppies are easily farmed in your iron farm, so those are still 'easier', but it's also a bit harder to get a functioning iron farm than just planting another field.

    You also light up your redstone to stop lighting updates.
    Redstone dust generates low levels of light. If you light the area above what the redstone could generate, the game does not have to calculate a new light level everytime the redstone updates.

    • @Pixlriffs
      @Pixlriffs  Рік тому +2

      Redstone dust does not create block light. This is a misconception. Moving redstone components (like pistons) can cause lighting updates to their surroundings when they move, but redstone dust does not affect light levels.

    When you placed the last observer, (that connected up the minecart to the entire system), how did you get it to orientate to allow the redstone to connect to the other observer & piston again?
    I can get the observer to face down, but not orientate to allow the redstone to re-connect to the observer connecting to the pistons. So the last piston doesn't trigger as there's no current going through the last observer...
