Making a Minecraft Chunk Tower Part 2
Created //
Where did we leave off?
In part 1 we talked about the base we were going to make. It's going to be a tower, with a maximum width and height of 16 blocks. We started by planning out a simple floor for wheat and cows, as well as a storage room floor for all the resources the tower will generate.
Also remember that each floor will have a hole in the bottom-right corner. This will be used for dropping resources down to the storage floor.
The wool farm floor
Wool farm floor: This simple wool farm has 10 sheep, which is enough to generate a lot of wool quickly. Once sheared, the wool is automatically taken by minecart and dropped into the hole at the bottom right of the floor plan. This drops all the way down to the storage room at the bottom.
One last example: the trading hall
Villager trading hall floor: There were a few layouts tried before we ended up on this one. We need to keep each villager in a 1×1 space so they can't move around. This layout gives us 23 different villagers.
Tower floors
This is what we planned to build for the tower:
| Floor | Purpose | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Storage / chests | Storage chests, benches, etc. |
| 2 | Trading hall | Villager stalls for trading enchanted books, gems, etc. |
| 3 | Trees | An open space for growing trees. |
| 4 | Wheat | Wheat and cows |
| 5 | Wool | An automated wool farm |
| 6 | Honey | Au automated honey farm |
| 7 | Sugarcane | An automated sugarcane farm |
But we forgot some important things... like furnaces, and a place to get XP. So we'll need to add those in. We'll dig down and make them in the "basement".
| Floor | Purpose | Description |
|---|---|---|
| B1 | Cactus farm | Generates material for XP farming |
| B2 | Furnaces | For smelting items passed from the storage floor |
| B3 | Bamboo farm | For fueling the furnaces |
And... we'll finish this in Part 3
In the final part, we'll see the final tower with interior and exterior images.
