I have built it (Stage I) on Java 1.12.2 and it did not work at the beginning. The observers were picking up no activity from note blocks. All the inserted items got stuck in the first dropper, the attached redstone clock was going on/off forever but that was all. I have solved it by replacing all of the note blocks by redstone lamps. Now it works like a charm. I really admire this elegant, flat and scalable design. Thanks for that.

Who's got the link for the showcase video?

Great system, the modular design makes it great to evolve as the player advances!

That's a nice use of observer as an indicator when the sorter is running. Alternatively, if you're in experimental/snapshot version, you can also use crafter as indicator. Similar to observer, crafter also has blinking texture when it is powered. Got this idea from watching Xisuma in his Hermitcraft 10 Ep. 1159 (at around 5:48). There he put crafter on the floor as indicator when his storage systems are running. And because the crafter texture is similar to plank, it looks nice and subtle with his plank flooring.

I built this in my survival world, but it seems like whenever I add too many items at once, the filler items move through the hoppers. I'm using 20/21 paper per hopper depending on stackable/unstackable, but the first two hoppers don't seem to consistently hold the 20 items. As soon as the 20 paper moves through, the whole sorting breaks. Any ideas what might cause this?

Queria um desse mais rápido

Not a lot of chests for MIS though

What if I build it in 2 chunks? my base where I can put my storage room is on the border of chunks

Any idea to make stage 1 work in bedrock?

💞Wow💗💗💙💗💗💗💗💗

great system! I'm definitely trying it soon!

Beautiful execution! the simplicity is mind blowing. I was in the middle of making my own sorting system based on other people’s designs when this design showed up and the only reason I haven’t torn the old one down and built this one is that my sorting room is on the border of two chunks. Well done sir!

I've updated the world download and schematics to include a non-stackable items sorter in the last silo slice before the push-based multi-item-sorter. Super simple, although I may not have found it without taking some inspiration from @Diche_little and a pre sorter design he shared with me. I'll look to doing an update video soon.

this is dank keep it up i always hated the minecart noises thank you

Is this how the mail system works on the Hermitcraft season 10 server?

Meanwhile me with 300 allays

Я видел похожую систему, но без шалкеров. Из минусов можно выделить, что у вас ограничено место для мульти сортировки, то есть у вас может быть только по 63 и не более. Система шалкеров. Она отделяет только шалкера? Если да, то что будет если положить ведро с водой, лавой и снегом? Вот эта верхняя линия воронок, которая предназначена для большого количества ресурсов одного типа. Я был удивлён. Это оказалось настолько просто и гениально. Спасибо.

If Mojang ever allows us to fill and empty cauldrons from dispensors, it'll be the start of infinite power.

Next tutorial please provide material list before building. Helps a lot and saves people time.

There's no way to automatically fill the empty buckets, is there?

Is rhis only an option for Java? Can I do this on Bedroxk?

Thank you for the system! I have a beginner-level question (I don't understand redstone all that well): if I just wanted to evenly distribute between 2 barrels using this system, do I just replace the barrel at 2:22 with a composter filled to 2? Also, I'm planning to use this for gold ingots at a gold farm, which I expect to trickle in (rather than go in a whole stack at a time). Does this work with that (either exactly or approximately)? The ultimate goal would be to have half the ingots from the farm go to an automatic piglin trader, and the other half to go to storage.

That's cool

hallo, i like the minecart stackers system, but cannot find a video anywhere on how to make one. Can you help me out?

Just what i needed for my circuit, thank you!

is there a list of items needed?

how well would this work with bamboo fuel? would the distribution be fast enough?

The litematic has been updated to the current design I use, but may not exactly match the one in the video. Tested with 1.20.4

I'm not sure if im building this wrong or not, but its not working for me. The 21 items for the hoppers just leave and go into the hopper for the item hopper you're sorting for.

built the schematic in the description, and the redstone on top is not active so the filter hoppers do not lock to set the items. The schematics look nothing like the tutorial.

this is a huge PITA. I go AFK 297562837954 blocks above my farm, mobs die and dump their stuff into my chests. my mine cart has to travel 2843775283475yy8472y43t87234879 chunks bak and forth transporting all the goodies from the farm to my base but..... the carts stop moving. they need to add a "active carts load unloaded chunks" rule

This is groundbreaking

Pretty interesting! I like making unreasonably technical Minecraft contraptions, though I mainly play on older versions (say 1.12). If you ever implement this on a large scale -- that would be an interesting video for sure! Makes me think about how this could be integrated with other systems. This already could be used as 'just in time manufacturing' system, where you request a certain item by sending a particular minecart order and the factory producing the needed item sends minecarts of its' own to get more ingredients if it's short. Expanded enough, it could turn into a network of single-purpose factories that collectively could produce almost any item in the game. Though it would probably require a sort-of mail system, where the minecart unloads its' cargo at the factory that requested it, not just any factory. Otherwise some factories would potentially get stuck, never receiving their order. This video popped up as a recommendation (on the right bar) on SethBling's Typewriter video for me.

Very nice.

Cool idea! Thx for the video. If only there would be a performance-friendly way of chunk loading a long distance minecart line...

Small update - the update broke some of these - specifically anything in this video that is observer based probably doesn't work anymore. The crafter now takes a little longer from when it pulsed to actually craft, meaning the repeater isn't able to "merge" the signals anymore. The lamp now also takes a little longer to turn on, meaning in the sorting context it can get "flipped twice" when matching items and get stuck in the wrong state.

Small update - the udpate broke this (sortof). The 'fill crafter' for the paper no longer works, but if you are willing to use some extra blocks, a more simple "subtract 8" approach can still work for the paper part

Really Amazing Designs 🔥 I hope this channel gets BIG soon.

How do the observers power the droppers if there’s an air gap between them?

So essentially the set up for a pumpkin pie factory if you hook it up with a crafter that crafts sugar, with a sugar cane farm attached, a pumpkin farm, and an egg farm, all attached so it feeds in endless ingredients for endless pumpkin pie, which in turn makes for a fun farm factory to make!

Super underrated channel. You have all the redstone builds that I would ever want to build in my survival world, and you also show off cool redstone from other channels too 👍

Hmm i wonder how useful this would be with the new crafter block

Mysticat brought me here from his crafter video, beautiful design!

If you really want unlimited dispensors and not just stacks of 64: elhedran-minecraft-public.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/unlimited+dispensors.png

Great job 👏🏼

Came here from mysticat...

Turns out the "complex" design also works for dispensors. Just have the non-stackable go in first (for what would now be the empty slot). Some trickery around extending the duration of the clock to allow all the items from the hoppers to filter through, but not enough different to justify recording another video. Basically have the "on pulse" also trigger a fader circuit to hold the clock off instead of coming back directly via a repeater. In terms of being able to feed items into the droppers, can always put solid blocks with redstone on them over the solid blocks, between the droppers and the comparitors, this allows the droppers to feed into the side of the hopper hopper line to the crafter and allows hoppers to feed into the top of the droppers.

The problem with publishing your working builds as they work is.... you learn of even simpler ways often not much later. Can't make the video now as I need to go to start work on my real job but... crafters output a signal of 9 when every slot is accounted for, and 8 or less when they are not. So a crafter ready to go (at least at this snapshot) will output a signal of 9. elhedran-minecraft-public.s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/1+tilable+fill+crafter.png Same thing as the video, but 1 wide tilable and only using: 1 composter 2 comparitors 1 redstone dust 1 observer 1 crafter 1 barrel <and whatever input to the crafter is wanted. As for "not fill" recipes, you can lock the recipe by not pulsing the crafter should it become empty if you did. So it doesn't really matter what order the items go in, so long as the crafter isn't pulsed to the point of using up the last recipe it knows about. Which means if you have a single hopper, instead of waiting for the crafter to be "8", you could just wait for the feeding hopper to be "full". It buffers more items then you need to, but it would also ensure you could repeatedly craft the same recipe (of up to five input item types)
