64 Furnace Array [Super Smelter] - Tutorial

- čas přidán 29. 06. 2024
- This tutorial is for a cool super smelter of a stack of furnaces, although it can be expanded up to 5 stacks of furnaces. Waiting for items to smelt is so boring, so hopefully this can help you accelerate the process and get you all the resources ready for whatever you are building. Enjoy!

If you have trouble getting the tricky sloped rail that goes next to the trapdoor, change the rail that goes on top of the trap door for an activator rail (do not power it). This may make things easier depending on the orientation. 😉
Amazing idea to fill 4 of the cart's slots.
I wished I would've seen this video before I designed my 96 furnace array. I went for this number to take advantage of your 4x hopper speed shulker unloader !
96 furnaces... Nice! I also thought on hooking the unloader to this design but it would've been something extra. So for the tutorial I just left it as is.
The hopper minecarts are just going into the hoppers?
Are you inputting full stacks of items?
Why exactly do we need so many hopper minecarts? Could we not just hold one hopper minecart out with a comparator, detect when it is full, and then use it to distribute the items?
Short answer: That's just the way I decided to do it. Obviously not the only one, but it made some other features of the system easier to design.
If you want more details about my choice and don't mind reading a longer text, I give you the long answer in my next comment.
Detailed answer: There were several things that I needed to consider when designing the super smelter and keep it simple.
- First, I like to show interesting ideas on how to do things for those out there who like to design their own contraptions but just need a bit of help with where to start. So, to fill up the minecart with more minecarts is easy to understand and easy to modify and make the array larger.
- Expansion is the second point. If instead of focusing on getting the exact timing for the minecart to pull certain amount of items before being sent off, we focus just on detecting when it is full, the contraption gets way easier to compact and if expansion of the array is needed, nothing or almost nothing in the circuitry changes. So, filling the minecart with non-stackables (other minecarts) just seemed a good choice. It's kind of like recycling!
- Then, we don't have to worry about pulling the filler items (the non-stackables) from the minecart before putting it back in the system. Why? Well, because the filler items are also minecarts, so they all go to the same place. Again, this makes the system easier to design and to keep small.
- And finally, furnaces smelt an item every 10 seconds. So, if we want to avoid wasting fuel, we need to put a new item inside of each furnace every 10 seconds or less. To keep the timings simple, we just constantly keep sending minecarts one after the other until there are no more items to be smelted. This assures that there is always at least one item inside the furnaces to be smelted, thus not using any more fuel than the needed.
But as said in the short answer: These are just design choices that I made and by no means the right way to do it, or at least not the only right way to do it. If you think you can improve it, by all means, feel free to do so. As I mentioned in one of the points, these contraptions that I showcase are also meant to be an inspiration and starting point to all of those people out there who enjoy making their own redstone contraptions or are trying to learn and get better at Redstone.
@@GiorgioJGZ Thank you so much dude, this is crazy detailed. I like the idea of constantly sending out minecarts, I was just not sure about its efficiency. Thank you for elucidating on it. Subscribed for sure
Np! Ty for the sub and welcome to the channel!! 😁
i cant manage to make that rail work even if i do as you said in the video
It's a tricky rail. Can you send me a picture through Instagram so that I can help you better?
it got it to work but the minecart won't stop to get 64 item it just keeps going
Did you place the fence gate? And if you did, is it closed?
@@GiorgioJGZ i fixed it it was the rail that wasnt slanted
Will this work for bedrock?
Sorry, it will only work for Java
