An AFK wool farm based on this design. This one is 16 spaces x 12 rows and contains 384 sheep. Project is abandoned since someone just killed all the sheep (filling all slots takes multiple days, its too soulcrushing ;_;). I highly suspect involvement of /kill command. This contraption is still usable but i doubt anyone would have the time to restore it.

How to use

I'll update this part with screenshots later. (prob not) First you need to fill every slot with 2 sheep:

  • You set the route from spawner to desired destination by flipping switches. Hopefully it's intuitive enough.
  • You activate the spawner by pressing button, it'll spawn 2 sheep and send them on water track.

Sounds simple? With average tps it'll take 5-10 mins for each pair to reach destination, good luck with that.

Design Pros

  • Much higher wool generation rate compared to spawner-based designs
  • Can be automated using Autohotkey script or by any other similar methods.
  • Periodically dispences shears in hand to replace broken ones. Thus making shears amount the only limiting factor for a full afk e x p e r i e n c e.

Design Cons

  • Affects tps (384 sheep).
  • Requires right-click input.
  • Requires full inventory to prevent shears filling up inventory.
