Hey there!
I just started listening to The Spawn Chunks, and I just finished the 5th episode, the one about storage. I don’t have any screenshots of it, but spent some time creating a pseudo-automated farm for bamboo. It’s mostly just a minecart hopper that travels along rails to pick up the bamboo that I harvested.
Anyway, I have two questions:
- What do you think about the Pillager patrols?
- What are your thoughts on automated farming?
- Specifically, what is it that you like or do not like about the existing materials for automated farming, and…
- What about automated farming in Minecraft would you add or change?
Looking forwards to your next episode!
