Minecraft 1.20 SLIME FARM TUTORIAL | Easy, Efficient, Bedrock + Java 

Happy Thanksgiving

I smelted a Raw Chicken today to celebrate

British lad celebrates turkey day? 🤔 🤔 🤔 🤔 🤔 🤔 🤔 🤔 🤔 🤔 🤔 🤔 🤔 🤔 🤔 🤔 🤔 🤔 🤔 🤔 hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Turkey or ham? I prefer pork. Lol

Happy Thanksgiving!

I just used your advice and now its working so much better, thank you so much

Your entity render distance or normal?

@@theevilpleb9719entity i assume, i dont see why render would make a difference

@@ignDart regular render distance not entity entity render distance just stops the entites from being rendered (they are still processed) to stop them from even being processed the regular render/simulation distance needs to be reduced

thank you!! 💞💞

Or a minecart with a hopper going in and out

what? no bouncing it into the Nether???

@@EL70CINE yeah so i used to use this but the hoppers stop when you leave the chunk so its incredibly inefficient, ive found that a water stream is sm better, dispenser powered by a redstone clock shoots the items, place water down a single lane then place signs and ice so it keeps going however long you need end on a hopper!

I find it easier and faster to just use flint and steel to burn the trees versus cutting them down. This build has a chest/hopper system that is underground. You could use ice and water to slide the items away from the dropper/dispenser if you don't do anything to heat and melt the ice. I used this type of transport system once several years ago to avoid rebuilding a system that would otherwise require me to recreate everything a few Y coordinates lower, and I'm assuming it still works. What I hate about so many tutorials from Wattles and others is they are built in a perfect environment, and one tiny thing can go wrong and break the entire villager farm, and there's no information on troubleshooting, and the work becomes a waste.

thank you!! I’m glad :)

thats good to know, havent been able to find a good enough slime farm recently.

Cant you also use torches instead of water

thank you 💞

thank ya!!

Thanks

its so easy!

Does it work on bedrock

@@mazenahmad8658 Yes it does, check the description

So it would seem..

​@@dragolectron9351 Have a like for that reference.

yes and no

thank ya!!

He actually has one for a creeper farm in his playlist. He might have one for a mob grinder as well, but I haven't checked.

ive got a creeper one in my mob farm playlist!! i can make a mob grinder one too :)

@@wattlesplays i actually found the creeper farm a few hours later🤣🤣 but a mob grinder tutorial will be really helpful

you can do that, or just lower render distance

Maybe he said only 80 so in case you expand the farm all the modules still work, but yeah, if you are doing 1 module only, 120 blocks is probably fine. This way, you don't have yo light up the area around or the caves underneath

I've tested it myself and 116 blocks is the perfect amount. Leaves a couple blocks of dirt under the farm, and you can easly light up the upper space (i'd say around 15 block per side around th efarm) so it works at nigtht aswell.

10/10 adorable

​@@wattlesplays does this work in 1.16?

@@nilamkarmakar5935 as long as there are sneezing pandas, then it would work

@@wattlesplays its not working man its in bedrock and its not working for some reason

Tru bro

dooo it!

@@wattlesplays It's still school days😂. Maybe on vacation, I'll have more time playing.

to what y level?

What y level, tell us!

​​@@usipussi6647 saw another comment and they said to build 115 above roof of farm, I did this and the farm seems to be working really well Edit I was on a server however so the rates may not increase for you

​@@null6554read the other comment I made

if you tile this equal to the amount of platforms that you’d build underground id say its about the same. the plus of this one is no need for slime chunks or big digging operations!

@@wattlesplays awesome, I'm currently digging out two slime chunks right now and was wondering if it would be better to just build your design, I'll think I'll go with your since it's so simple, thanks 😊

@@wattlesplays Since the rates will be drastically reduced if you have a mob farm nearby, can you build it far away and AFK with a chunk loader and have both farms running at the same time? In other words, does the mob cap apply to just a 128 block radius, or to all loaded chunks?

@@wattlesplays but what is the exact rate of slime balls

@@octopuszombie8744 I assume all loaded chunks but I am not certain; I am basing this assumption off of the fact farms built at spawn are always running.

happy thanksgiving!!

you might be right, but for my first survival game in hardcore this farm was just amazing.

brilliant addition

So if I use a simulation distance of 10 how high should I go up? I noticed I got 0 spawns after waiting a whole hour. I also did the optional stuff beforehand 💀

@@no_u_420 I would refer you to the minecraft wiki on fandom and the Simulation Distance page for a good amount of details but I will try to quickly answer your questions it is also good to make sure that you where not waiting during a new moon (no slimes will spawn during a new moon), but it would not be a new moon for a whole hour. With a Simulation distance of 8 -12, spawning range is 24-128, with random despawns between range 34-128 (should not despawn if damaged within the last 30 seconds, and instant despawn at range greater than 128 (or in a chuck on the edge of the simulation distance, this should not be an issue since you are AFKing up and not to the side) Throwing some numbers into a euclidean distance calculator, being "centered" (8 block from the north and east of the chunk) at a height of 127 (if you are standing on y 64 for the spawning platform, you would stand on y 191 for you AFK spot) you could lower that a few block and not affect your spawn rates too much. example theoretical slime chunk is from x=0 to x=15, z=0 to z= 15 your spawning platform (0,64,0) to (15,64,15) your AFK spot (8,191,8) The problem with having it only 80ish blocks above the spawning plaform like wattles did, with a simulation distance of 10, you have 47ish block below, and out to 90ish block to the side of the far corners of you spawn platform that can spawn mobs. If there is a cave below that you don't light up as well as the surface within a 99ish block Radius of the center of your spawn platform, hostile spawns could and hang around and drop your slime spawn rates. Fortunately you don't have to worry about filling or lighting up any deeper water areas, since drowned do not spawn in Swamps, If you are close to a river or ocean, then you would have to address those water area. while I was setting a different slime farm myself (basically a cleared spawning platform, no auto killing) I found it helpful to cycle between peaceful and what ever game difficulty I wanted the slimes to spawn at. cycling through peacefull will automatically despawn all hostile mobs, and then when you go back to easy/normal/hard, there will be no mobs hold your mob cap, NOT recommended if you have a pet hostile mob, say a zombie you use to turn your villagers to improve your trades. Sorry I got a bit long winded, but I hope that helps

Do yk how high up I should be for sim 4? I used an addon to tell me where mobs spawn, I put the afk platform in correct area but they still aren’t spawning.

@@joe-cm4lz if you’re on bedrock don’t even bother, I’ve done extensive testing and this farm straight sucks on bedrock edition. Regardless of moon phase, afk spot or simulation distance you’ll only get like 5 slime balls every 10 minutes. It really needs to be updated in the video so bedrock players like myself don’t need to waste time on pointless builds.

ayy nice but also f in the chat because this is easier!

Hey man, my farm doesnt spawn mobs at all with the candles. They're all the correct amounts of candles, and it has nothing to do with my render distance. It only works without candles obv but my iron golem dies. Could you send a pic or tell me the Y level of your slime spawning area and the height of your AFK platform?

@@xojayce584I AFK 115 blocks above the roof of the farm I didn't mess with my render/simulation distance some comments say to turn both to 6 chunks so maybe try that and I built my farm on y level 63 I took every extra step like removing the layer of dirt all around the farm so it's just water I slightly lit up larger areas and removed all the trees if there was land under them

probably you dont oppened the fence gate

Check Silent whispers design,his is the best villager hall/breeder design on bedrock

That’s a bad idea. If there’s any caves in the area they will spawn mobs filling the mob cap. If you have no choice, just light up every single cave within an 80 block radius. But it’s much easier to put it in the air
