@@ncolyer it was never meant to be the most lag friendly design, but the simplest as said in the title, however if you ever need to build a mass amount of chunk loaders, where in this case lag would make a difference, you could always hook this design to a slower clock
just tried this on my 1.16.5 paper server - the design showed in the video breaks if you walk away from it, but i fixed it by adding blocks on either side of the bottom of the portal, adding a second minecart hopper in the other obsidian block under the portal going into another hopper, and replacing the pressure plate+redstone torch mechanism with a comparator coming out of the dropper that goes into a repeater and back into the dropper. genius design by the way.
Sadly this also didn't work for me. Whenever I go away, the boat just drops as an item near the portal. The hoppers don't pick up. If I stay near, it works fine.
@@saranshyadav8389 mango litterally posted a video of him making a tutorial of a chunk loader using minecarts beeing destroyed with lava to place them again going to the other dimension again
Neither this nor the minecart version will work on a paper spigot server on 1.19.2. The item entities do not consistently pass through the portals in the same location and it will break over time if not immediately. Even modifying the design and adding an addition hopper minecart does not alleviate this issue. It is a neat design that works in vanilla though.
Not sure what I am doing wrong, but when the boat is dispensed its hitbox doesn't touch the portal and it just sits flat on top of the stairs. I ended up putting flowing water next to it to push the boat through.
the design is so awesome but PLEASE double Check The Ammounts of items at the start Because the "Item list" at the start was useless because it contained the wrong things
This design is genius by it's simplicity , I love it but I don't think I would be able to use it in my SP world, here is why : In Sp every time you exit the game it's as if you stopped the server on a MP. When you log back in everything but the spawn chunks are unloaded. Therefore the only reliable way to have your chunk loaders activate as soon as you log in is to have them fully automated and always being able to start from the dimension of your choosing. For example I have my mobswitch 17 chunks away from a spawnchunk, it has a loader 2 chunks away in the direction of spawn (15 away from the spawnchunk). I have a first loader in that spawnchunk, in the nether both loaders are only 1 chunk away. That way when I log in no matter where I am in the overworld the loader from spawn activates, loades the nether where the second loader linked to the mobswitch is placed, this in turn activates the second loader automatically and that will load the corresponding chunks in the overworld and my mobswitch will turn on. With this loader if the boat of the the main loader at spawn is in the nether at the time you log off the system won't start back because the nether is unloaded so the boat will stay there. Same if the boat of the second loader is in the overworld at the time of login off : even if the nether is loaded by the first loader the chunk of the overworld containing the boat of the second loader is still unloaded, no boat is present on the second loader on the nether side to restart it. I also wonder, even if both boats are in the right configuration when I log back in waiting in their dispensers, wouldn't I need to restart the loaders manually using the pressure-plate ? Very nice but not reliable for the type of use I need it for unfortunately :( Not saying this to put off the build, just a warning to people on SP who are looking for a design similar to mine but if the loader is needed only from time to time and switched on manually every time then this loader is great :)
oh wait i think I misunderstood you, do you mean can it be reloaded from one single dimension without breaking? it has to be reloaded from the overworld, and if there is at least 2 boats in the dispenser this shouldn't break as if the boat is in the nether when unloaded an other boat would be sent anyway to reload the nether, but no it can't be reloaded only from the nether
@@_darkvictor_ it was both in fact, the need to be able to reload from the nether and to be able to load automatically when I log in no matter where I am in the overworld. From what you tell me it would be a great option for a farm , you activate it before leaving the zone or going to the nether so that the chunks stay loaded . But for a mob switch you don't want to relog somewhere in a cave and be swarmed by 70 mobs that weren't there when you logged off because your switch mobis off :p
Is this reliable? Item entities through portals are very unreliable and can sometimes come out at different spots at different velocities, also a pigmen can spawn and ride in the boat which could break it too
the velocity of the item can vary but it always spawns in the middle of the portal which teleport it instantly, and yes pigmen can ride the boat but it does not impact the machine as it's instantly teleported, you can see it in the video
@@_darkvictor_ i once tried moving elder guardians in minecarts though a nether portal and could not since entity that rides another entity sems to not be able to come though the portal. so if a pigman come though and stand in the place where the boat spawns on can't it then lock the boat to the overworld?
@@_darkvictor_ the redstone processing chunks are also called lazy chunks, so maybe just say the 7x7 ring is saved in memory but not loaded or just super lazy
I am using a simple fishing rod ender pearl stasis with this chunk loader, an I cannot for the life of me figure out why is fails not long after. Maybe I am doing something wrong with the fishing pole but I just can't rely on it anymore if I am in danger and in need of an emergency tp.
I built this and it worked But then a pigman spawns in the portal and walks onto the pressure plate and it stops the chunk loader So ig its not fully pigman proof but you can fix that by placing 1 block?
do chunk loader work in singleplayer? i built this design in the chunk of my iron farm but everytime i leave the chunks for example going to my base, the iron farm stops working but the chunkloader works like normal is there any fix or is it just chunkloaders doesnt work in singleplayer?
btw is that work in 1.16.4? i set it up in ~ ~ 10000 to make my ender ball final destination, shot the ball to unloaded chunks, and i dont get teleported there...
you shot it from spawn ? you have to load every single chunk the pearl is travelling in, not only the destination, making pearl canon a bit outdated past 1.12 chunkloading mechanics saddly
@@WilcoVerhoef You'd need a massive cannon to achieve the speeds necessary (more than 48 blocks per game tick, though much more is likely since you won't be able to build a cannon with perfect block grid alignment), which is a) not viable to build for most people, and b) a nuisance as it'd cause a massive lag spike on every activation due the necessary amount of TNT explosions (making it not viable at all in single-player as it'd likely crash the game). And regardless, you'd still need to build an extreme amount of portal chunk loaders anyway, so it wouldn't save you much effort at all.
@@photonicpizza1466 16+ blocks per tick is enough for a small saving in effort, since even single skipped chunks enables you to build the next loader further. I found a cannon that claims to achieve 900 blocks/tick however, which would mean massive effort savings (if this method even works) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-xWHHzPzR8gg.html. The lag spike on vanilla minecraft would possibly be immense, but many TNT exploding in the same spot at the same tick is very easy to optimize for (at least when submerged in water/lava). Alternative servers and performance mods like carpet have done this, maybe vanilla will catch up eventually... But yeah, still not viable to build for anyone but the most technical players with limitless time on their hands.
So it's essentially my perma loader except laggier because the boat is dispensed way more often. (See Rooftop Joe's video.) Anyway, there are two downsides. First, it cannot be turned off from the Nether. Secondly, pigmen spawning in the portal frame will break it so players cannot come in range of 128 block to it.
damn I haven't seen this design before, I thought I was the first to use boats, it's indeed pretty similar. but like I said earlier this design does not aim max lag efficiency (which is very negligible for just one or two of those let's be honest), but aim to be the "SIMPLEST" design like said in the title, however if you need to build more of those it would be indeed more appropriate to hook it to an etho's clock. also concerning the pigmens you can look the video at 0:45 , they do enter the boat (as you can see em glitching in the glass block), but they are instantly kicked out somehow, because the boat spawned right in the portal. also the minecart glitched in the obsidian might be more reliable to collect items ?
@@itzukei It might be directional, i had two otherwhise identical and one worked fine while another didnt, just add a simple hopper clock to activate the dispenser
Well some blocks on the side of the portal an a better pickup system using 2 hopper minecarts would help a lot also you need more boats, 4 boats works but save is 9, then it should work fine
see my other comment. the specific design in the video doesn't but it's pretty easy to fix, and from my anecdotal experience it might be more consistent than item dispensing chunkloaders on paper.
