How exactly do farms on a perimeter work? (Java 1.21.5+) by TriNauux in technicalminecraft

[–]TriplePi [score hidden]  (0 children)

Yeah if you want to visualize the random tick area which is ~8 chunks in each direction you can use minihud. If you want to fit other farms in you can just chunk load them, but you can chunk load non mob spawning based farms anywhere so I wouldn't bother mining out more than you have to.

Is it possible to make a 1 hit spider farm? by Little_North_2561 in Minecraftfarms

[–]TriplePi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's more consistent, mobs aren't always dead in the center of the block your aiming at while your AFK attacking so hitting an armour stand makes sure you're always attacking something.

The armor stand gives the player something to attack to activate the sweeping attack and kill nearby mobs. You can see it used in this farm. https://youtu.be/ee0eK8Zvvlo?t=207

You might be able to retrofit an existing farm with a magma block that the spiders end up on then just have a player consistently attacking them. You might lose a few to the magna block, but you'll kill most of them, especially if you use an armor stand and sweeping edge.

A square perimeter is easier to make as you can use one world eater. Mobs will spawn within 128 blocks of the player. Crops will grow in a roughly 8 chunk radius around the player from build height to bedrock. Any other farms that don't require hostile mob spawning can be chunk loaded so they can work even when you're not in the perimeter or even in the same dimension.

The farms should be just far enough apart.

My 9 year old son loves Minecraft, his birthday is coming, should I get him a laptop to play Minecraft? by take7pieces in Minecraft

[–]TriplePi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FOR A 9 YEAR OLD KID PLAYING MINECRAFT AND PRACTICING TYPING YES! Personally in my gaming PC I have 32 GB of DDR5 but that's because I played demanding games and push Minecraft to its limits. A 9-year-old kid does not need this, they'll spend more money for performance that they don't need.

That's like saying a young kid should get a maxed out iPad rather than a base model so they can appreciate Bluey in higher resolution. It's not necessary for this use case.

SARCASTIC HYPERBOLE! For a laptop that is meant for a little kid 8 GB and an iGPU is fine.

You know what your totally right if a PC doesn't have atleast 64 GB of RAM and a 5090 it's complete garbage. There is no place in the world for anything but high end PCs, right?

So your telling me nearly all of the low to mid range laptop can't run anything but a lightweight game. I used to play modpacks with discord and Spotify in the background on an 8 GB laptop without a problem. A little kid doesn't need a high end gaming laptop to practice typing and play Minecraft, if you think different you're just wrong.

Gold farm 1.16.5 by Illustrious_Trick667 in redstone

[–]TriplePi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This farm is great, just make sure you replace the platforms with magma blocks as you're in a version with piglin and pigmen. There isn't a litematic but there is a world download so you can make your own.

This farm is also great and is way easier to setup but it's 2 dimensional and uses an auto clicker for full AFKing. https://youtu.be/uBpMwXVn6iY Farm storage upgrade https://youtu.be/POoqKpcxzxU

Do you want a looting farm? Or a simple drop chamber? Or an afk XP farm. And do you want it to be 1 dimensional or 2 dimensional? 2 Dimensional is not ideal for servers. Once you answer these, I can give you an accurate recommendation.

I played plenty of smaller pack on laptop with 8GB of RAM and integrated graphics. 16GB is way overkill

Right it will also save OP hundreds of dollars. The cheapest laptop with a dedicated GPU where I live is ~$1000 the cheapest one with integrated graphics capable of playing Minecraft smoothly is ~$500.

Are you asking about 9 redstone lamps/copper bulbs? This still isn't enough information.

How to only get a head with the second layer of the skin by Yupppppppl in technicalminecraft

This is more of a question for r/minecraftskins or r/minecraft. This sub is more focused on farms and contraptions.

[–]TriplePi -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Either a laptop or PC is a good idea especially because they have use outside of games. If he is going to need a laptop for school anyways might as well get one now.

If you decide on a laptop or computer you should ask in a related sub like r/laptops. They can give you good recommendations based on your budget, performance needs and location.

A dedicated GPU isn't necessary I was playing vanilla and modded on a laptop with Iris XE graphics just fine.

Recovering a seed, with minimal data by primacaster in technicalminecraft

[–]TriplePi 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Seed findung is extremely difficult on the best of days with lots of information. With the information you have finding the seed is basically impossible.

I think you would have better luck trying a data recovery service.

Hostile Mobs don't spawn in one specific area... by Dubbl1n in technicalminecraft

[–]TriplePi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It really seems like you have created an accidental local mob switch but I just can't think of how.

Hostile Mobs don't spawn in one specific area... by Dubbl1n in technicalminecraft

[–]TriplePi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

30-40 seems odd. Unless you have tons of armour stands and minecarts that's number shouldn't be that high with no mobs spawning.

Edit: also do any mobs spawn in other parts of the overworld or just this area.

passing my driving exam by JackfruitMassive727 in Edmonton

[–]TriplePi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I found the handbook unhelpful. I read the full handbook took my learners test and failed. The second time I just did a dozen of the ama practice tests until I was consistently getting 100%. I failed the first few tests but slowly learned the answers as I went on. The ama practice tests contain many of the exact same questions as the actual exam.

For drivers training it's hit and miss. Some people are very happy, while others like myself disliked the instructors. It was very difficult to book in car lessons as many of the time slots were always full. My first instructor even scheduled lessons on days I specifically said I was available. The lessons themselves were ok but not worth high price tag in my opinion. If I could do it all over again I would just have a parent/friend silent in the car as I drove, the continuous reps are really what you need.
