Great base concept, I used this on my own game however, I found a couple of issues with using it and had to make a couple of adjustments; first I changed out the L2 Piston for a pair of L5 Pistons for maximum speed for faster crushing and medium to high level raids, I also set the timer down to 250milliseconds to make the crusher faster; second I found that a 3 block wide crush pad wasn't big enough and some enemies, mostly Haybots, could attack the bumper and not get crushed; to solve this I extended the crush pad to by one block on either side making it a 5 block width; third this issue came due to the increased size of the crush pad, enemies could now ride the crush pad to circumvent being squashed; to solve this I went into creative for a bit of testing, I built the base version of this and then put a secondary bumper and stomper above the first, so that if enemies managed to get on top of the first crusher they'd still have a second crusher to destroy them, although I have yet to actually implement this last bit in my survival save as more testing is still required.
Excellently simple and effective setup!
So an update as to how I ended up fixing bots being able to ride the Crush pad to get over/around it, on the block directly above the piston make another pad that's the same size as the crush pad, any enemies that get the bright idea to try and ride the crush pad will get sandwiched between the retracting crush pad and it's new roof, it's highly effective against Totebots and Haybots, Tapebots though will try to shoot it, so I recommend keeping the farm relatively small.
Bonus Tips: Raids can be triggered with just a handful of crops, the types of crops along with the amount being planted or still growing determines the raid level; also once a "Raid Level" has been decided it gets locked in at that level, this means that by planting a handful (about half a stack of seeds) of carrots early in-game time (open the logbook with 'L' the in-game clock is on the left ((by early I mean from 1AM-3:50AM in-game))) and then waiting for the "Unauthorized Farming Detected" message, you can then continue planting after getting that message; the 'Unauthorized Farming Detected' message starts the timer and always triggers just after 4AM in-game time, that message is also accompanied by a scan (unseen by the players since its just code) that checks what types of fruits/vegetables the player/players have planted, how many were planted, and then determines an appropriate raid level in response however, since the scan only happens once and this is what we can take advantage of; by planting only carrots in a small number we can trigger only a low level raid between 1-3, the Raid Level once determined is LOCKED IN, so we can immediately go right back to planting even more crops of a higher value making sure to fertilize ALL of the crops, and when the raid comes we'll only have to deal with the usual Totebots and Haybots, just make sure that your entire farm is ready to harvest before the next 'Unauthorized Farming Detected' message shows up and you won't need to worry about raids too much.
I still like to call this design the "Woody Wacker". It's the best mid game farm defense I have seen that you can build at a low resource cost.
Coming from somebody who I have seen build some fantastic creations I will accept the woody whacker with pride 😅
Very nice
thank you so much
Thank you for the video! I had a question as if the walls were attacked from the side, the sensers wont be triggered. What do you do for the corners?
The corners have never really been an issue, but the crush plate is build in a way that the corners meet in a diagonal with the edge furthest from the farm being the longest, depending how you set it up on the logic, you will never miss.
I personally risk it, as I have run this set up since survival came out and I dont even remember the last time the corners were attacked perfectly so the crush never happened 😬🤷🏼♂️
Sensor based crush o matic. The staple of any non tier 3 farm
Great video!
I have a problem, I can't link the sensor to the gate as shown in the video at 2:30 .. I can't link the sensor to anything actually. What am I doing wrong?
everything has to be part of the same structure physically before you are able to link it , if there is no physical connection, without mods, you wont be able to connect it
@@wo0dy oh great I just connected the two structures and that fixed it.. thanks so much 😊
Woody mate, just use a sport suspention, a level 5 piston on max settings connected to a sensor, easy man's version
No. Its not reliable
just one other question before I destroy the first farm. I made mine about the same size as yours in the video but is there a limit to the size like lets just for example say I wanted to make a 50x50 or 100 x 100 farm maybe extreme but makes the point. Can I make this same set up with the same mechanical supplies with only the wood/stone needing more or is there a limit to the farm size with this set up?? I know you said no limit on the censors distance.
I'd argue the more weight added the more pistons and suspension you will need. Me personally I would keep the internal walls as 1 but for the squashing plate, and the triggers I would split them. If a bot attacks 1 end I dont see much point in have the other end of the wall also squash down onto nothing. But thats up to you, my only advice would be if you make it bigger, you will just need more pistons to support the weight over its length, same with the suspension. You might see it sagging or warping under its own weight is all (you also might be 100% fine too, depends on how the game wants to be)
@@wo0dy OK thats what I was wondering as it grew if I might need more of the mechanical components for it to work. Won't make it extremely huge but just wonder how big might be too big HA HA
Just didn't want to destroy the first set up to reconfigure it bigger until I sorted out the questions on bigger.
Thanks!
I created the easy man's version when trying to build a farm defence and cavalry reflecting this video!
Is this what you were using in your streams? I can't remember much other than me losing all my points on some gambling game in chat...
Im feeling it was yes lol.
@@wo0dy I've sent you a Discord Friend request, 'cos I've got a collaboration-esque idea in mind, and think you might enjoy joining myself and a few other content creators in this endeavour.
More details via discord DM's, but I think I need to be friends with you first, for some reason.
This only works on small monsters, but larger monsters are very difficult :v
si papu :v
Cool way to defense your base but what do you fo if you have a 300 plots farm? :)) cause the pistons aren t that powerfull
Sure they are, just break it down into sections
@@wo0dy oh ok thank you
whats about with the censor range? I got to the part where I am trying to hook up the censors to the logic gate and the connections not possible. Was this changed since the video came out?? It seems though if the connections close then it hooks but if it's close for 2 then it's far away for the other 2 and can't connect those 2 censors
the only thing that will stop the connections is if the sensor isnt physically connected to anything .
What i mean is, if you build a wall and have a sensor 1 end, and the logic the other, it wont matter how long that wall is it will still connect
However.
If i build a wall have the sensor on 1 end and he logic on the other, but break that wall in half the sensor will lose connections to the logic as there is no physical connection
@@wo0dy Thats what it was I joined the inner walls together and this time got the links. Thanks!!
@@wo0dy Got it fully working and tested wiped them all out thanks!!!
could use that for a decent potato farm
But what if the spine of a hay bot or the head of a tote bob gets under… won’t it not work fully?
Doesn't matter, the boys are still tall enough to be smashed
I followed everything but it still didn't work. When the sensor triggers all it does is turn on the nor gate that was off and turn off the nor gate that was on and when the sensor turns off it reverts back to the initial nor gate being on and the other nor gate being off again. did I do something wrong?
sounds like you havent got the timer set right or the wiring is wrong. double check.. if its triggering that fast you need to increase the timer
i have a question,why can't you connect just 1 piston for all sides
Weight becomes an issue
It seems my pistons went down and for some reason when the bumpers are pushed it comes up and then back down and stays down .. I can't figure out what I did wrong ... it was after I pushed the reset button it went all crazy ..
Just give the button a long press that usually clears it, if not perhaps something has got crossed with the wiring. Sounds like the pistons are down when the circuit is 'off'
@@wo0dy ill give that a shot tonight and if it doesn't work I'll rewire everything.. thanks so much for the video and the response .. it looks like a great defense base .. I mined all the materials for hours so I'm hoping it works:)
@@wo0dy dude!!!! Thanks so much for this farming base .. I had to look closely cause the one that stayed lite up while connecting the logic was backwards ... but it works great now ... sometimes the bots kinda glitch in but rarely ... great work here
Glad you got it sorted
but the bots come on to the crusher part and come in the farm how to fix it
Really? Your asking me how to build a wall....
i used 1 piston
Sometimes it bugs and can't work anymore, is there something how to prevent it?
Need more info than, it bugs. Bugs how? What happens?
@@wo0dy The logic gate gets in the some kind of loop like in your video before you reset it with the button. I can reset it as well and it working properly little while and then it bugs again and I need to reset it with the button again.
@@adriano19532 so to stop it having a wild moment you can do 1 of 2 things.
1. press the button for a little while. about a second should be long enough but this will just take that current glitchy logic back to normal
2. in the logic gates, you add in another piece of logic.
or
nor nor
is the current set up
if you do or
nor nor
and
connect everything as normal, but also connect BOTH 'Nor' into the 'and' then connect 'and' into 'or' this basically stops it from flickering and should always reset it automatically
My crusher doesn't go all the way down, what did I do wrong?
Used a level 1 piston? Or didn't set the length correctly in the piston
@@wo0dy I didn't wire the 3 logics in the right order 🤦♂️
Thanks anyway
Alwaya better if you can figure it out yourself 👍 making mistakes is how we learn!
can i defend tapebots with that
Technically yes but more than likely no.. tapebots will target the piston, but of you get them close enough the can be squished
@@wo0dythanks
i just use controllers, and a floor on the top of the trap, so they are crushed when the piston go top or bot.
No
@@eliaswangblad1798 ?
does this work against farmbots?
un tested but in theory, build it tall enough with enough weight on the slamming plate and it 'could'
@@wo0dy thanks for answering first of all, i really appreciate it. Im worried they would one shot the block which might then fuck up the system. Also does crushing a farmbot one shot it? And finally do u know how tall i would have to build it to crush them?
No 1 crush wouldnt kill it, it might rag doll it though, so it wouldn't be able to attack. How tall, again, dont know. Best thing to do is test it in creative, get the capsule and build to the height. No need to waste your survival base, try it in safe conditions
@@wo0dy sounds good, thanks a lot!
i did step by step but my sensor didnt work. help me pls :(
Check sensor range, check connections with connection tool, it DOES make a difference which way its connected, check logic is correct
how can i spawn bots in my creative test world ?
In the creative there should be a capsule for each bot in the inventory menu where all the blocks can be found, place as many as you like then break them open
@@wo0dy ah iam so stupid haha, ty very much
this isnt astroneer
Thing didint work i did step by spep and it stiillll didint work
Still doesn't work being ? Does the sensor trigger? Put the sensor on the sound mode so you can hear it, then trigger the plate, if you hear a beep, then the sensor works, next check the wiring and the logic gates are correct
Ok
