Building a Cobblestone Generator in Skyblock Skyworld
In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of building an efficient and simple cobblestone generator in your Skyblock world. This generator does not require any complex redstone components such as observers or comparators, making it easy to build. Whether you have limited lava sources or an abundance of resources, we will show you how to adapt the generator to suit your needs. So let's get started!
1. Introduction
Cobblestone is a valuable resource in Skyblock worlds, and having a reliable generator can greatly enhance your gameplay. With our step-by-step instructions, you will be able to construct a cobblestone generator that produces a staggering amount of cobble items. We will also discuss alternative methods for generating cobblestone using a TNT duper or a TNT dispenser.
2. Building the Cobblestone Generator
2.1 Materials Needed
Before we begin, let's gather the materials required for building the cobblestone generator:
- Pistons
- Redstone Dust
- Glass Blocks
- Repeater
- Lava Sources (8 for the basic design)
- TNT Dispenser (optional)
- Cobblestone or Stone Blocks
- Slime Blocks
- Coral Fan
- Detector Rail
- Minecart
- Sticky Piston
- Lever
2.2 Step 1: Setting up the Piston Segment
To start building the cobblestone generator, create a line of nine blocks, followed by a row of seven pistons on the side. Use any type of blocks to keep the water in place. Place water sources in each corner and cover the pistons with glass blocks or slabs. Add redstone dust on top of the glass blocks or slabs.
2.3 Step 2: Adding Water Sources
Next, place blocks on the side to hold the water sources. Ensure that the lava will not flow out of the sides. Place a water source in each corner.
2.4 Step 3: Placing Glass Blocks and Redstone Dust
Above the pistons, place either glass blocks or slabs to prevent the cobblestone from sticking to the pistons. Place redstone dust on top of the glass blocks or slabs.
2.5 Step 4: Creating the Piston Segment
Repeat the process to create three more piston segments. Add stone or any supportive blocks to prevent water flow. Connect the pistons with redstone dust.
2.6 Step 5: Spreading Lava for Limited Sources
If you have limited lava sources, you can spread the lava to generate cobblestone using a single source. Punch out the blocks to allow the lava to flow down, creating a cascading effect. Place the lava source at the desired location and let it flow down. Ensure that there is a two-block distance between the side of the water surfaces and the blocks to prevent overflowing.
3. Adding the TNT Duper
3.1 Step 1: Preparing the Area
For this step, you will need to create an opening in the fence gate. This opening will allow the cobblestone to be pushed by the TNT. Place the TNT on top of the opened fence gate and align it with blocks.
3.2 Step 2: Creating the TNT Duper
Build a structure with three slime blocks and attach a coral fan to it. Place a detector rail and a minecart on top. Add a sticky piston and wire it to the redstone dust line.
3.3 Step 3: Wiring the TNT Duper
Connect the sticky piston to the redstone dust line, and then create a clock using repeaters. This clock will control the timing of the TNT explosions.
4. Using a TNT Dispenser
4.1 Step 1: Adding the Dispenser
To use a TNT dispenser instead of a TNT duper, simply replace the TNT duper with a dispenser. Align the dispenser with blocks and connect it to the redstone dust line.
4.2 Step 2: Aligning the TNT
Place blocks around the dispenser to align the TNT properly. Ensure that the TNT will be dispensed in the right direction.
4.3 Step 3: Connecting to Redstone Dust
Connect the dispenser to the redstone dust line to activate it when the cobblestone needs to be pushed.
5. Collecting the Cobblestone
5.1 Step 1: Building the Water Collection System
Underneath the cobblestone generator, go down 15 blocks and place a fence gate. Create a platform using blocks and add water sources to the corners. Fill water around the sides with a two-block distance to the water surfaces.
5.2 Step 2: Directing the Water Flow
Direct the water flow towards the middle point by placing blocks and leaving spaces for water sources. Ensure that the water will direct all the cobblestone drops to a single spot.
5.3 Step 3: Completing the Collection System
Finish the water collection system by filling in the remaining space and adding extra blocks in the corners. The water will flush all the cobblestone drops to the middle point for easy collection.
6. Conclusion
Congratulations on successfully building a cobblestone generator in your Skyblock world! Whether you chose the basic design, the TNT duper, or the TNT dispenser, you now have a reliable source of cobblestone for all your construction needs. Experiment with different variations and gather an impressive amount of cobblestone. Enjoy playing Skyblock with your efficient cobblestone generator!
