Submission Information Overview

Choose one of the following methods:

• Simulation distance: 4+

Other possibilities: Simulation distance 6+, Simulation distance 8+, Simulation distance 10+, Simulation distance 12

• Simulation distance: 4+
  • Note: Use simulation distance 6+ for full usage

Some farms worked with a spawning sphere of 24-54 blocks (before 1.16.0).
This allows the farm to work on simulationmaking it work on sim 4, but even better on sim 6+

• Simulation distance: 4+
  • Note: The player must afk below/in between the farm

Some farms use fall damage to kill mobs. In order to have mobs not despawn on simulation distance 4, players must afk between the spawn platform and the kill platform
This does not apply for other simulation distances

Choose one of the following methods:

• Size:
  • 12x12x12 = 1728 blocks

The size must mention how many blocks it is (by multiplying the numbers with each other)

• Size (Design 1):
  • 1x5x4 = 20 blocks
• Size (Design 2):
  • 2x3x5 = 30 blocks

If multiple designs are submitted, then it will be mentioned between brackets

• Size:
  • ?x?x? = ? blocks
  • Note: Missing size

If size is not provided, this note is added

Choose one of the following methods:

• Rates (1.16.0):
  • 1320 Cooked Chicken per hour
  • 256 Cooked Beef per hour
  • 1394 Cooked Pork per hour

After “Rates” the version that the farm is tested in must be mentioned
If the version is not provided, the first possible version this farm works in must be specified as version

Item names must be correctly capitalized

• Rates (1.16.0):
  • 1000 Rotten Flesh per hour
  • 2 Egg per hour
  • 13,000 Emerald per hour
• Rates (1.17.0):
  • 1100 Rotten Flesh per hour
  • 20 Egg per hour
  • 15,000 Emerald per hour

In this case, rates are provided from multiple versions

• Rates (Design 1, 1.16.0):
  • 3 TNT per hour
  • 15,000 Gunpowder per hour
  • 4593 Bone per hour
• Rates (Design 2, 1.17.0+):
  • 500 TNT per hour
  • 100 Gunpowder per hour
  • 12,453 Bone per hour

You can also have different designs, or “modules” which result in different rates. The version must also be mentioned.

• Rates (1.16.0):
  • 10,000 Golden Nugget per hour
  • 100,000 XP per hour

Adding XP gained from the farm is favorable, but not required

• Rates (1.16.0):
  • 10,000 Golden Nugget per hour
  • Level 30 in 5 minutes

Writing the XP gained from a farm in "Level [x] after [y] time”” is acceptable, but not preferred

• Rates:
  • 10,000 Gunpowder per hour
  • Note: Rates may have changed in newer versions

Rates may change in newer versions in the game.
The newer rates are always stated on the website, but not always in the Discord

The reason of the change must be mentioned. Example:
Note: 1.17.40 increased the mobcap, increasing the rates of this farm

The website is not finished so this may change

• Rates:
  • 14,500 items per hour (?% Dirt, ?% Arrow, ?% Bone, ?% Spider Eye, ?% TNT)
  • Note: Missing specific rates

If no specific items are mentioned, the possible obtained items must be noted down with a question mark and a percentage, to account to the percentage that specific item is, from the total rates.
Example: (?% Dirt = Unknown percentage of Dirt of the total amount of items)

• Rates:
  • ? items per hour (?% Dirt, ?% Arrow, ?% Bone, ?% Spider Eye, ?% TNT)
  • Note: Missing rates

If no rates are mentioned, the possible obtained items must at least be mentioned and handled in the same way as the above method

• Rates:
  • ? Dirt per hour
  • Note: Missing rates

If the farm produces only 1 or 2 items types, then there doesn't have to be a percentage for the drops.
If there are 3 or more item types, the above method is preferred (with the percentages for drops)

• Rates:
  • 1,000,000 Dirt per hour
  • Note: Questionable rates
    

The rates provided may be questionable, e.g. the farm has not been tested long enough, or there is evidence the rates are incorrect

List of wrong examples, to improve the understanding of the good examples. Every wrong example also explains how to 'fix it'.

Don't choose one of these examples:

• Rates (1.16.0):
  • 64 stacks Gunpowder per hour

Rates should be written in total items and not in “stacks”.

Fix:
Rates(1.16.0):
- 4096 Gunpowder per hour

• Rates (1.16.0):
  • 330 Slime Balls per hour

Item names should written as singular items. Note: It is not correct in an English sentence, but in this archive it is correct (and avoids inconsistencies in cases where the plural form is acceptable).

Fix:
Rates(1.16.0):
- 330 Slime Ball per hour 

• Rates (1.16.0):
  • 80 Iron Ingot per minute

Rates should be written “per hour”, NOT in minutes, seconds, etc.

Fix:
Rates(1.16.0)
- 4800 Iron Ingot per hour

• Rates (1.16.0):
  • 12 Golden Nugget p/h
  • 220 Rotten Flesh per h

Rates should be written “per hour”, NOT p/h or per h. 

Fix:
Rates (1.16.0):
- 12 Golden Nugget per hour
- 220 Rotten Flesh per hour

• Rates (1.16.0):
  • 12,434 drops per hour (?% Iron Ingot, ?% Poppy, ?% String)

Rates should be written in terms of “items” and not in “drops”. 

The nerds might have noticed there is no “Note: Missing specific rates” in the message which should be included as well 🤓

Fix:
Rates (1.16.0):
- 12,434 items per hour (?% Iron Ingot, ?% Poppy, ?% String)
- Note: Missing specific rates

Choose one of the following methods:

• TNT Usage:
  • [Number] TNT used per kill

Specify the amount of TNT that is used per kill

Example

• TNT Usage:
  • 243 TNT used per kill

• TNT Usage (Design 1):
  • 214 TNT used
• TNT Usage (Design 2):
  • 200 TNT used

If multiple designs are submitted, then it will be mentioned between brackets

• TNT Usage:

  • ? TNT used per kill
  • Note: Missing TNT usage

Note must be added if no TNT amount is provided

Choose one of the following methods:

• Hit Speed:
  • [Number] gt per hit

Specify the hitspeed in gameticks

Gt stands for “gametick” and is a way to measure how fast a trident killer can hit a mob. A mob can only be hit every 10 gameticks, but having a trident killer faster than that results in faster kill speed

Example

• Hit Speed:
  • 4 gt per hit

• Hit Speed (Design 1):
  • 8 gt per hit
• Hit Speed (Design 2):
  • 6 gt per hit

If multiple designs are submitted, then it will be mentioned between brackets

• Hit Speed:
  • ? gt per hit
  • Note: Unknown hit speed

The note must be provided if its unknown how fast the farm is. The discord usually has people that can help explaining or finding the speed of the tk

Choose one of the following methods:

• Used for all types of mobs

Universal trident killer; all mobs can be killed using this Trident Killer

This type of Trident Killer is not useful as it wouldn't be efficient as it should also kill big mobs like Ravagers, Slimes, Magma Cubes, Ghasts and Iron Golems.

• Used for standard mobs
  

'Standard' mobs are all mobs that are equal or smaller than 2 blocks tall and 2 blocks wide (so including spiders and Ravagers, but not Slimes, Ghasts and Iron Golems)

• Used for [1/2/3] block tall mobs 

Select one number

If a farm can both do 1 and 2, then include 'and';
Used for 1 and 2 block tall mobs

• Used for {Mob}

For Trident Killers with specific type of mobs, you can select this one. Possible answers: [Ghast/Slime/Magma Cube]

Some mobs have a farm attached to the trident killer, they are not included in this category: [Witch, Shulker, Iron Golem, Outpost]

Choose one of the following methods:

• Breakspots:
  • [Number] breakspots

Specify the number of breakspots that are used

Example:

• Breakspots:
  • 48 breakspots

• Breakspots (Design 1):
  • 34 breakspots
• Breakspots (Design 2):
  • 40 breakspots

You can also have different designs, or “modules” which result in different rates. The version does not have to be mentioned

• Breakspots:
  • ? breakspots
  • Note: Missing breakspots

If the kill speed is missing, then this note must be added

Choose one of the following methods:

• Bedrock Usage:
  • [Number] Bedrock blocks used
  • [Bedrock Floor/Bedrock Ceiling/End Exit Portal/End Gateway/Obtained Bedrock] 

Specify how many Bedrock blocks are used

Select if the Bedrock blocks are naturally generated, or obtained:
- Bedrock Floor (? Bedrock Blocks)
- Bedrock Ceiling (? Bedrock Blocks)
- End Exit Portal (41 Bedrock blocks)
- End Gateway (12 Bedrock blocks)
- Obtained Bedrock (? Bedrock Blocks)

• Bedrock usage (Design 1):
  • 41 Bedrock blocks used
• Bedrock usage (Design 2):
  • 11 Bedrock blocks used

You can also have different designs, or “modules” which result in different rates. The version does not have to be mentioned

• Bedrock Usage:
  • ? Bedrock blocks used
  • Note: Missing Bedrock block usage

It is unlikely that the amount of Bedrock blocks are unknown, but if not provided, this note must be added to it

Choose one of the following methods:

• Kill Speed ([Easy/Normal/Hard] difficulty)
  • 1 Wither every [Number] [gameticks/seconds/minutes]

There has to be a mention of the difficulty, as the Wither’s health changes based on difficulty:
- Hard = 300 hearts (600 hits)
- Normal = 225 hearts (450 hits)
- Easy = 150 hearts (300 hits)

The time it takes for 1 wither to die, this can be provided in gameticks, seconds or minutes

Example:

• Kill Speed (Hard difficulty)
  • 1 Wither every 5 minutes

For a standard suffocation design in hard mode, the wither has 300 hearts:
The Wither has 300 hearts and requires 600 hits to kill
The Wither can be hit every 10 gameticks, or every 0.5 seconds
600 hits needed x 0.5 seconds = 300 seconds = 5 minutes

This changes the speed for difficulty:
- Hard = 300 hearts = 600 hits = 300 seconds = 5 minutes
- Normal = 225 hearts = 450 hits = 225 seconds = 3.75 minutes
- Easy = 150 hearts (300 hits) = 150 seconds = 2.5 minutes

• Kill speed (Hard difficulty)

  • 1 Wither every ? seconds
  • Note: Missing Kill Speed

If the kill speed is missing, then this note must be added

• Kill speed (Design 1, Normal difficulty):
  • 1 Wither every 10 seconds
    
• Kill speed (Design 2, Normal difficulty):
  • 1 Wither every 5 minutes
    

If multiple designs are submitted, then it will be mentioned between brackets

Difficulty must still be mentioned

Choose one of the following methods:

• Item Filtering:
  • 64 stackable in the top waterstream
  • Nonstackable in the bottom waterstream

In this case 64 stackable items are separated from nonstackable items.
A picture here could help

Mention the place where the items are coming out of after going through the filter

• Item Filtering:
  • 64 stackable in the left waterstream
  • 16 and 1 stackable in the right hopperstream
    

Instead of top/bottom and waterstream, left, right and hopperstream can be used

• Item Filtering:
  • Nonstackable filtered based on property, end up in their own chest

In the case of nonstackables, they can be sorted based on the interaction with other blocks/entities, however not every non-stackable can be sorted

E.g. A Shulker Box cannot enter another Shulker Box, so you can sort Shulker Boxes based on that

• Item Filtering:
  • All items in the top stream
  • All XP in the bottom stream
    

XP can also be filtered from the items XP can for example float on top of flowing water while items sink

• Item Filtering:
  • 64 in the left waterstream
  • 16 stackable in the right waterstream
  • Nonstackable in the bottom waterstream
    

A contraption can filter out multiple item types at once

• Item Filtering (Design 1):
  • 64 in the right waterstream
  • Nonstackable in the left waterstream
• Item Filtering (Design 2):
  • 64 in the right waterstream
  • Nonstackable in the left waterstream

If multiple designs are submitted, then it will be mentioned between brackets

Even though design 1 and 2 are structured the same, they might have some difference in size, blocks used or (hopper) speed

Choose one of the following methods:

• Item Storage:
  • {Greek Numeral Prefix} hall
  • [Chest/Barrel/Shulker Box] 

Item halls use the Greek Cardinal Numeral Prefix system hall. The number explains how many storage blocks there are per slice. See below the most common used terms:
- Tetra (4) hall
- Hexa (6) hall
- Octo (8) hall
- Deca (10) hall
- Dodeca (12) hall
- Decatettara (14) hall
- Decahex (16) hall

Item storages can store items in different containers (= Type of block that can store items, such as Chest, Barrel, Shulker Box, Furnace, Dropper/Dispenser, etc.). Possible values:
- Chest (Double chest actually, for single chests, use Barrel)
- Barrel
- Shulker Box

Example:

• Item Storage:
  • Hexa (6) hall
  • Barrel

• Item Storage:
  • Hybrid Tetra (4) hall
  • Chest

A Hybrid item hall stores items first as items in chests. Once the chests are full, the items are being placed in Shulker Boxes (allowing for more storage in a smaller space)

• Item Storage:
  • Item Caller
  • Chest

Item Callers are storage systems that can request an item from a far away storage to a central point

More information is needed here

• Item Storage:
  • Bulk Storage (8)
  • [Self-organizing/Digsort/Hall] 
    
  • [Chest/Barrel/Shulker Box] 
    

Since Bulk Storages can be made real big (and not all containers are always accessible), the number of containers is not mentioned in the Greek Numerical Prefix, but rather just a number

There are different types of bulk storages. Possible values:
- Self-organizing (Bulk storage that can organise itself (using binary code))
- Digsort (Bulk storage for digging sites)
- Hall (Bulk storage hall)

Item storages can store items in different containers (= Type of block that can store items, such as Chest, Barrel, Shulker Box, Furnace, Dropper/Dispenser, etc.). Possible values:
- Chest (Double chest actually, for single chests, use Barrel)
- Barrel
- Shulker Box

Example:

• Item Storage:
  • Bulk Storage (8)
  • Hall
  • Chest

A picture here could better explain than this text 

• Item Storage:
  • Silo Storage
  • Chest

A storage silo is a type of storage that is similar to bulk storage, but instead there are indicator lights showing whether a chest is completely full with items, making it in one quick view easier to see if you are low on items
A picture here could better explain than this text 

These type of creations require to have expandability and tileability added as extra other information

• Item storage (Design 1):
  • Bulk storage (6)
  • Hall
• Item storage (Design 2):
  • Bulk storage (8)
  • Hall 

If multiple designs are submitted, then it will be mentioned between brackets
This applies for all types of item storage: item halls, item callers, bulk storage and silo storage

Choose one of the following methods:

• Hopper Speed:
  • [Number]x hopper speed

Example:

• Hopper Speed:
  • 1x hopper speed

• Hopper Speed:
  • ?x hopper speed
  • Note: Missing hopper speed

Note must be added if the hopper speed is missing.

• Hopper Speed (Design 1):
  • 16x hopper speed
• Hopper Speed (Design 2):
  • 16x hopper speed

If multiple designs are submitted, then it will be mentioned between brackets

Even though design 1 and 2 are structured the same, they might have some difference in size or blocks used

Choose one of the following methods:

• Doorframe
  • Regular

There are many types of door frames. See below the list, or read this [Article: Doorframe] for more information:

Choose one of the following methods:

• Wiring Restrictions
  • None

There are many types of wiring restrictions. See below the list, or read this [Article: Wiring Restrictions] for more information:
- None
- Entityless
- Observerless
- Observer-only

- Sandless-semi
- Sandless-full
- Slimeless
- Zomba
- Zombi

Choose one of the following methods:

• Door Speed
  • Open = 0,7 s
  • Close = 0,3 s

Door speed is measured in seconds. The door speed can be measured by recording the door opening/closing. It is possible to calculate how long (redstone) components take to update to calculate the speed from that. (1gt = 0,05 s, 2gt = 0,10 s. 2gt is equal to 1 redstone tick (the time it takes to update a repeater))

Recording the door speed using a video is not reliable as visuals in Minecraft don't always match what actually happens

• Door Speed
  • Open = ? s
  • Close = 0,3 s
  • Note: Missing opening time

If the opening time is missing, use this note

• Door Speed
  • Open = 1,2 s
  • Close = ? s
  • Note: Missing closing time

If the closing time is missing, use this note

• Door Speed
  • Open = ? s
  • Close = ? s
  • Note: Missing door speed

If both opening and closing time is missing, use this note.
This note is probably not used, because this is simply useless information for a door that is being tracked for 'fastest'

Choose one of the following methods:

• Bonemeal Usage
  • 2,400 Bonemeal used per hour

For farms that use bonemeal to grow crops or saplings, the bonemeal usage must be used

Just like rates, the amount of Bonemeal is given in total number and per hour

• Bonemeal Usage (Design 1):
  • 2,400 Bonemeal used per hour
• Bonemeal Usage (Design 2):
  • 2,000 Bonemeal used per hour

You can also have different designs, or “modules” which result in different rates.

• Bonemeal Usage
  • ? Bonemeal used per hour
  • Note: Missing Bonemeal usage

If Bonemeal usage is unknown, use this note

Choose one of the following methods:

• Bonemeal Profit (1.16.0):
  • 2,400 Bonemeal used per hour
  • 3,000 Bonemeal produced per hour
  • = 600 Bonemeal profit per hour

After “Rates” the version that the farm is tested in must be mentioned
If the version is not provided, the first possible version this farm works in must be specified as version

Just like rates, the amount of Bonemeal is given in total number and per hour

Bonemeal profit can be calculated by:
Bonemeal used - Bonemeal produced = Profit

• Bonemeal Profit (1.16.0,):
  • 2,400 Bonemeal used per hour
  • 3,000 Bonemeal produced per hour
  • = 600 Bonemeal profit per hour
• Bonemeal profit (1.17.0,):
  • 3,000 Bonemeal used per hour
  • 5,000 Bonemeal produced per hour
  • = 2000 Bonemeal profit per hour

In this case, rates are provided from multiple versions

• Bonemeal Profit (Design 1, 1.16.0,):
  • 2,400 Bonemeal used per hour
  • 3,000 Bonemeal produced per hour
  • = 600 Bonemeal profit per hour
• Bonemeal profit (Design 2,1.19.0,):
  • 10,000 Bonemeal used per hour
  • 12,000 Bonemeal produced per hour
  • = 2000 Bonemeal profit per hour

You can also have different designs, or “modules” which result in different rates. The version must also be mentioned.

• Bonemeal Profit (1.16.0):
  • 0 Bonemeal used per hour
  • 1,000 Bonemeal produced per hour
  • = 1,000 Bonemeal profit per hour

For farms that don’t use Bonemeal (e.g. fish farms), this number must still be used

• Bonemeal Profit (1.16.0):
  • ? Bonemeal used per hour
  • 1000 Bonemeal produced per hour
    
  • = ? Bonemeal profit per hour
  • Note: Missing bonemeal usage

If Bonemeal usage is unknown, use this note

• Bonemeal Profit (1.16.0):
  • ? Bonemeal used per hour
  • ? Bonemeal produced per hour
    
  • = ? Bonemeal profit per hour
  • Note: Missing bonemeal usage and production

If both Bonemeal usage and Bonemeal production is unknown, use this note
It's highly unlikely that this note is used for a bonemeal farm

Choose one of the following methods:

• Experiments
  • Beta API

Experiments are required to be added if the pack uses them

Choose one of the following methods:

• Hopper Locking
  • 15/32 Hoppers locked

The amount of hoppers that are locked, either through a global lock system or automatically. This applies when the system is idle. The amount of hoppers locked while active is irrelevant.

The amount of hoppers locked is required for any storage system that utilizes Hoppers

Important Information

• Hopper Locking
  • ? Hoppers locked
  • Note: Missing Hoppers locked

If it is unknown how many Hoppers are locked, then this note must be added

It is highly likely this note is necessary as it is easy to see how many hoppers are locked

Choose one of the following methods:

• Features
  • Fake players: Players that can spawn mobs and load chunks like regular players

The features are listed in random order, however a description must be added on what they do

Choose one of the following methods:

• Tested in Warped Forest

Rates are depended on the biome it is tested in and therefor must be included

• Tested in any biome

If the farm does not depend on biome, this can be used

• Tested in any biome
  • Exception: Frozen Ocean, (Frozen) River, Mushroom Fields

For general mob farms, there are certain biomes this farm doesn't work in. For example these farms.

It's easier to mention the exception, rather than to list in every biome it does work in

• Tested in an unknown biome
  • Note: Tested biome is unknown

If it is unknown in which biome the rates are tested, then this note must be used
This does not mean the testing is flawed, it just means that the provided rates may be different in other biomes

Choose one of the following methods (Trident Killer/Fall Damage/Manual Killing/Instapush/Other Cause):

It's possible that there are multiple kill methods. This must be mentioned in the description.

Choose one of the following methods:

• Loot delivery, storage included

The loot gets transported and stored in a 'proper' storage that sorts the items in categories and in chests or shulker boxes

• Loot delivery, no storage included
  • Note: No proper storage

The note about no proper storage must be added

The loot gets stored in a random pile of chests, without properly being sorted and stored

Choose one of the following methods:

• XP delivery

Experience is getting delivered to the player

• No XP delivery: XP destroyed using [Sculk Catalyst/Lava/Cactus]

The method of destroying XP must be mentioned

Extra Information

• No XP delivery
  • XP destroyed using Campfire
• ..
• ..
• Note: Due to Campfires no longer burning XP in 1.19.60+, the farm breaks
  • Source: Minecraft 1.19.60 Bedrock, MCPE-98931
  • Possible fix: Use a Sculk Catalyst or Lava to remove XP

If the farm uses Campfires to destroy XP, those will no longer work in 1.19.60+, therefor the farm has to be redesigned to destroy the XP a different way

The note is Extra Other Information and should be below all other information (indicated with the ..)

Extra Information

• No XP delivery
  • XP destroyed using [Command Block/Void]
  • Note: No proper XP destroying method

The XP is destroyed using 'strange' methods, making it not viable for survival. The note below it must be added to it.

Choose one of the following methods:

• Relog Proof

Relog proof means that if you leave the wither cage alone, it wouldn’t break
Note: if you actively push blocks into the Wither, it might be able to escape if you leave the area

• Not relog proof
  • Note: Wither might be able to escape

The note must be added when the Wither cage is not relog proof

Choose one of the following methods:

• Wither Skulls cannot escape
  

Wither Skulls that can escape might be able to break the terrain (and buildings) around the cage, which is not wanted

• Wither Skulls can escape
  • Note: Add extra protection around the Wither Cage
    

The note must be added when the Wither cage is not Wither Skull-proof

Choose one of the following methods:

• 1 module used with max 1 Wither each
  

The amount of modules with the amount of Withers can say something about the speed, as well as if it can be stacked or not

• 1 module used with max 1 Wither each
  • Uses End exit portal, only one module is possible

The End exit portal can only hold up to 1 Wither reliably
Same goes for End Gateway

• 1 module used with max 10 Wither each

Some modules can hold up to more Withers reliably before breaking

• 12 modules used with max 1 Wither each
  

Some Wither killers use already multiple modules to increase speed. Usually these modules cannot be simplified due to the redstone being used to run between modules

• 1 module used with no limit on Wither
  

Some Wither killers can hold any amount of Wither (or kill them fast enough that they never reach a certain limit)

Choose one of the following methods:

• [Number] village, [Number] Villager each
  

Select the amount of villages
For a single village, choose 1
For stacked villages, choose the amount of villages stacked

Select the amount of Villagers per village
For a raid farm, 1 Villager per village
For Iron Farm, it can be in multiples of 10 (10/20/30/40/50)
For a Trading Hall, it can be the amount of cells the current design holds (in the world download/tutorial)
For a Villager Breeder, it should be at least 2 Villagers

Example single village Raid farm

• 1 village, 1 Villager each

Example 24 stacked village Raid farm

• 24 villages, 1 Villager each

Example single village Iron farm with 20 Villagers each

• 1 village, 20 Villagers each

Example 12 stacked village Iron farm with 10 Villagers each

• 12 villages, 10 Villagers each

Example Trading Hall with 30 cells

• 1 village, 30 Villagers each

Example Villager Breeder

• 1 village, 2 Villagers each

Choose one of the following methods:

• Uses instakill

• Doesn't use instakill

Some farms work without instakill (e.g. simulation distance 4)

Choose one of the following methods:

• Manual automation: Player {performs action}
  

Give an explanation what the player does
For example: breaking/placing blocks or crafting (no longer needed in 1.21+ with the Crafter)

Manual automation means that a player needs to move the camera and perform an action for the farm to work.

Example: with a Cube maker in a tree farm.

Extra Information

• Semi-automatic automation: Player {performs action}
  

Give an explanation what the player does
For example: breaking/placing blocks or crafting (no longer needed in 1.21+ with the Crafter)

Semi-automatic automation means the player has to perform an action, but it can be automated using an external script or program (an autoclicker). The player does not have to move the camera to make the farm work.

Example: Ice farm, Player crop farm

Extra Information

• Player-less: Uses a {bug} 
  

Player-less is used in farms where it is normally not possible to make it playerless, but a bug makes it possible 

Explain what bug is used, if possible with a bugreport or video below

Example with playerless tree farm

• Player-less: Uses a bug that makes the sapling regenerate if all leaves are blocks with dirt
  

• Self-sustaining
  

If a farm is self-sustaining, it works 'automatically' without a player interfering

Example: Huge fungus farm, Shroomlight farm, Moss farm, Flower farm, Nether Plants farm

• Not self-sustaining: {reason}
  

 A farm that requires repairing after uses (dispensers refilling, collecting items, repair something broken)

Explain what makes it not self-sustaining

Example:
- Refilling Dispensers in a Gold Farm that uses Flint and Steel
- Collecting items in a Simdistance-based Gravity Block Duper
- Waiting for Sheep to grow Wool back in Simdistance-based Wool Farm
- Replacing Snow Golem in a Simdistance-based Pumpkin Farm
- Replacing Mooshroom/Bogged in a Simdistance-based Mushroom Farm

Example with Gold Farm that uses Dispensers

• Not self-sustaining: Dispenser need to be refilled from time to time

Choose one of the following methods:

• [Number] wide

For things that can be placed next to each other, it is good to mention how wide a build is

Select the correct width for the farm/contraption

Width is always the shortest side of the build

If a creation is wider than 16 blocks, then it is not worth to mention this. 

• [Number] wide tileable

Select the correct width for the farm/contraption

Tileabilty means whether you can copy+paste the design/module right next to it and not have trouble running it.

• AB tileable

AB Tileable means that you need to have 2 similar builds (but a very small variation) in order to build them next to each other without breaking over time

Choose one of the following methods:

• Expandable horizontally up to [Number] blocks
  

Expandability means how many you can place next to each other and still have it work. Usually this happens if you have things like water streams or redstone signals that cannot stretch forever

Select the amount of blocks it can be extended

Example

• Expandable horizontally up to 10 blocks

• Expandable vertically up to [Number] blocks
  

It can also be expanded vertically

Select the amount of blocks it can be extended

Example

• Expandable vertically up to 32 blocks

• Expandable horizontally up to infinite blocks
  

A lot of contraptions can be infinitely expanded and still works. Infinite implies that there is no limit, rather than being actually infinite

This can also be done vertically, not only horizontally

Choose one of the following methods:

• Wither uses [Wither Skull/blockbreaking attack] to break the blocks

A Wither has two attacks, select the attack that it uses to break the blocks

Both attacks from the Wither have a 100% droprate (but be aware that items don't get destroyed)

• [TNT/Ghast/Creeper/Ravager/Piston/Water/Lava] breaks the blocks

Select the corresponding mob/block that breaks the block

Ghast, Ravager and Piston have a 100% droprate (unless the block itself doesn't have that)
Be aware that the items can get destroyed by the Ghast

TNT has only a 100% droprate with the gamerule tntExplosionDropDecay set to false (default) in 1.21.0+
Be aware that the items can get destroyed by the explosion from the TNT

Creeper doesn't have a 100% droprate

Example

• TNT breaks the blocks

Choose one of the following methods:

• Creation Date: 10th of October 2024

Format must be: Day + Month + Year

The Day number is mentioned as ordinal number and depends on 'rank': 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc.

• Creation Date: 1Unknown
  • Note: Unknown creation date

If the creation date is unknown, use this format

Choose one of the following methods:

• Archived Date: 10th of October 2024

Format must be: Day + Month + Year

The Day number is mentioned as ordinal number and depends on 'rank': 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc.

• Archived Date: Unknown
  • Note: Unknown archived date

If the archived date is unknown, use this format

Choose one of the following methods:

• Dimension: Overworld → Nether, uses 2 players
  

Direction (from which dimension to which dimension) must be mentioned using the → symbol (U+2192)

Amount of players needed must be mentioned

This must only be included if the farm uses more than 1 dimension (E.g. Overworld ⇄ Nether)
Applies for 3 dimensions as well
Example: Overworld → Nether → End

• Dimension: Overworld → End, uses 1 player and a tickingarea

This must only be included if the farm uses more than 1 dimension.
Applies to 3 dimensions as well
A ticking area may despawn mobs if no player is nearby. In mob farms that don’t have persistent mobs, this cannot be used.

For these types of dimension travel, End Portals are used. End portals are not obtainable, which will be mentioned under the Information-Type Notes

• Dimension: Overworld → Nether, uses 1 player and dimension switcher (Overworld ↔ Nether)

If a dimension switcher (a device that automatically switches the player between dimensions) double arrows are used ↔ (U+2194)

This must only be included if the farm uses more than 1 dimension.
Applies to 3 dimensions as well

Choose one of the following methods:

• Gamerule [gamerule] must be set to [true/false]

The gamerule must be mentioned using codeblocks 

In the case of Portal Based gold farms, some require the gamerule dofiretick set to true

• Note: Due to [a bugfix or change of a mechanic] in [version], [the farm breaks/the rates changed/usage changed]
  • Source: [link bugreport/changelog/wiki]
  • Possible fix: [possible workaround]

If no version is provided or the version is just simply unknown, use an unknown version For source, use:
- Source: Unknown

If there is an intended mechanic, a version does not have to be provided

A bugreport, changelog or wiki link must be linked to show when the problem was introduced or where it comes from (as reference)
Preferably both bugreport and changelog

If no fix is possible, use:
- Possible fix: None
