Building a Fully Automatic Farm that Plants, Waters, and Harvests! (Scrap Mechanic Survival Ep. 7)

Hey everyone and welcome to Scrap Mechanic Survival! Today we are starting up an automatic farming system so we can plant, water and harvest plants without having to do anything! Hopefully this allows us to start getting plants and work on trading for better items!

you should put a timer on the shutoff to automatically restart the cycle after the duration it takes the longest plant to grow so all you have to do is put in seeds and take out fruit

[@element9224]

[@NCLSUGRT]

Gregzyt I had a similar idea but instead of adding a timer to restart just make it bigger such that the time it takes to plant everything is the same time it takes to grow so the machine just keeps running over and over

[@gabrielmartin2429]

[@BlackBearFTW_]

​@@NCLSUGRT​ A timer is not even needed, since the vacuum wil only suck up full grown crops you can just keep letting it run and it will ignore all the crops that are not fully grown

[@MrFlubber]

@ScibleMonk I don't think it would waste seeds because it cant plant them if a plot is already being used, and the water is automatically collected always, so even if the water is being wasted, you get the same amount of water that is wasted. And even if you use more water than you get, just add another pump.

You can also use a sensor to detect when a plant is fully grown! Place a sensor pointing toward one of the final plants (or a few with an and gate) then hook that back up to the trigger or gate and you have fully automated it 😃

[@evanharden2003]

TheGubble I plan on adding the sensor to this design in my world

[@Yull-Rete]

You could actually put the sensor on one of the first plants. That way you'd be harvesting them as the ones later in the row are still ripening. But since the machine runs at the same speed each time, they would always be fully grown by the time the harvester gets to them. (Assuming of course the sensors can detect grown vs ungrown plants.)

finally caved and built this thing and well, you changed something off camera(prolly when you added the invisible yellow and gate for the length pistons) and it doesnt seem to work. please let me know what you used to cause the timers to stop cycling. everything else works perfectly except you cant turn the thing off. when you do, the timers just keep going as they were except they now have a second beep going in an endless loop. **Edit**fixed it, the triple xor that goes to the first timer loop, needs to not only go to the xor but to the and also. this will cease the loop because when the system turns off, no matter what the and does not receive a signal on both lines.

[@Ahiatua]

[@Ecconia]

- Controller waiting issue: Each component controlled by a controller may have a different update time, may it be distance/rotation or just pistons/bearings. Thus each stages duration of a controller is defined by the slowest component. Having no change in one stage, the stage has no duration, its instant, thus skipped. - The whole farm could be hooked up to a timer of 24h or less. The plants will be grown by that time and the player only has to go there at any time of the day, to sort/fix the chests content. This also justifies any form of duration, 15mins of farm processing? No problem, each soil on the field has its own constant time cycle. The player doesn't need to care when each cycle happens, due to the timer. Nice idea! I didn't know that one could control pistons like this, its awesome! And the sensor to trigger when its over a field is also awesome.

So I was just going to comment that you could try to double the planters, but decided to keep watching first and ofcourse you thought of that. Although I was thinking about just doubling the planter and vacuum pump while still keeping on the one row at a time theme, but its probably more compact, efficiënt and less messy to just do 2 rows at a time. but doing one row at a time really fast would look really satisfying tho. great stuff as always.

[@aymericbiancopelle1149]

I would have used limit switches for the back and forth instead of a timer, the added benefit is that you can lengthen your field with minimal effort. I'm so eager to have the modpack logic in survival, it'll make the circuit much simpler and much faster with smart engines ! Also an awesome over engineered solution to make this faster is to have a rotating planter head with multiple vacuum pumps so that they can cooldown. Also Also, if the vacuum pump has enough range to pick up the rows around, you could plant going both ways, simplifying again the circuits !

This is awesome hands down but if time is the concern then you should have your logic watering/planter/food taker set up on every row for it to take 30 seconds and if there is not much space then have it on every other row for it to take a minute. This brings so many great ideas thank you!

[@raysen3607]

It's an amazing concept! You could make it twice as fast simply by rotating the setup of pump and vacuums by 90 degree: by making each step of the process work on their own line per time, you can then make the system active both on the going and returning pass. First Going pass: harvest column A First Returning pass: harvest column B and plant column A Second Going pass: harvest column C, plant column B and water column A etc. Yes, you still would need to add two extra passes over the left edge of the wall to finish watering everything but it still would be a lot faster than the current design.

[@theminetrooper7514]

you could fix the slow planting issue by doubling planters, and putting them angled in/one after the other and then you could pulse them at odd and even farm spot, which would double the plant speed, and then if you add that to the double sided version you talked about, that's 2 minutes to plant the whole thing

Here is a good idea for the wall when you get more resources. Make the wall stretch out to the water and under it, then make a door for a boat to pass through, but also make a door underwater tallow submarines to go through. Ill explain how the door for the boat will work below So it'll be similar to the front door, but there will be a switch inside the wall. What you will do is have a censor connected to the door to open it. When you want to get back in, you hold a button that extends a piston, activating the censor. Once the door is open, you can just float your way in.

my design is finally done! i stop following you video and did myself the most parts on it, the end result had the pistons strategy to pull or push cart equals with 2 pistons balancing the other making the entire stuff still in place, i screw up following you video when comes to toggle switch and i finally understand what you did, but i discover by myself nad in the end not use that... i make a flipping cart and put sensor in each edge of both rails... the low rail make the system skip a row, the second rail make the cart flip and goes to the next line, this way my machine never be in iddle backing to start of a line, i need wait some seconds because of the cart flipping stage, for that i make a timer with when flip the cart already swith the row... when it reach one of the edges of low rail it trigger a memory bit that shift the next step... this make my system go all lines until the last then back all lines until the first and keep going... i just put 100 seeds on it and let it on... i need work how to only plant when it harvest something, but i not figure that out... and actually i like this to not be on all the time, because raids keeps getting harder if it is on all nights with crops

[@35manning]

Have I got some ideas for you... 1) Do the sensors detect the crops? If so, use that to advance the gantry along the row using the same wobble method. No timer needed 2) Use memory bits to break up the actions. Step 1, vacuum the crops, step 2, plant them, step 3 water them. this may take "longer", but if you use the wobble method, you can vacuum and water quickly and plant in both directions. If sensors do take crops, then this can be left running. It will auto vacuum crops, only seed empty plots and water everything. Then you only need to worry about your new bot joining forces with the existing farm bots and attacking you when you least suspect it...

[@skatta_hg9333]

9:35 so you basically build a switch with a button and 7 Logic Gates? xD

[@8_su]

Its a T-flip flop idk why he built it

[@koktszfung]

@@8_su he explained it, you don't have to manually turn off the switch every time which is very handy, also it is a switch that can be triggered by another signal as well

[@luddebama]

Please make a clear tutorial without any changes in the middle of the build on cause im really trying to recreate your builds and it gets really frustrating when you for example build a thing and later say: ''But that wasn't working so let's rebuild the whole thing'' I understand that this isnt just a tutorial video but please make one which you only build one thing and stick to it and not starting to remove anything and just build the build correctly from the beginning. I hope you see this so you can make a tutorial video which would be greatly appriciated!

[@iloveskysvideos]

You taught me so much new logic stuff this episode. I thought i new a lot I was very very wrong

[@mcgamemaster]

I am new to playing scrap mechanic so thx for explaining how the logic gates work and showing the building process for the most part

[@blackplace7174]

Me after watching all the scrap mechanic survival vids that are out now: component kits are literally the currency of sms

[@VAXHeadroom]

Scrap Mechanic Survival is LITERALLY "The eternal search for component kits"

[@zarnox3071]

I think the lane changing movement needs to be a few ticks longer. Towards the end of your final demonstration, it wasn't aligned very well with the plots.

[@kacperjoniec6865]

Oh God, you are the biggest brain of all time! I definitely want it in my base, thank you for your help.

[@GalaxyTheif]

PLEASE READ IF YOUR BUILDING YOURSELF!!!!!!!!!!!! If you have a problem where you pistons that push the whole cart thingy, get glitched out because of the timer just repeating itself. what you do is you hook up an extra OR gate to the AND gate that connects to the piston timer. then connect the memory bit (that's full of XOR gates) to the OR gate you just placed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This works because: An AND gate needs all inputs to be active at the same time for it to light up, when the XOR gate connected to the AND gate lights up when the OR gate is not (when the whole system is off) it will not activate the pistons!

[@TheDirtyBirdie]

Sooooo, I wasn’t the only one that’s was lost when he started doing circuits and timing and sensor stuff.... right 😅

[@avgmoose2568]

my brain is ded from watching this its like me in minecraft, i can build decent but when it comes to redstone or logic in this case i have no understanding

[@bearoyay]

Its very comlicated, but luckily we have videos like this that cant teach us...slowly....

[@avgmoose2568]

@Caelan JONES, yeah ive played for a while too and i can barley use timers let alone a timer loop

[@Glowbaries]

Instead Of Using A Water Container, You Can Use A Large Chest! That's What I Did And It Works Perfectly And You Have Much More Extra Water. The Only Difference Is That The Large Chest Is More Costly With Materials.

[@Leveler93]

Wow! I first learned about logic gates at university but there is an game with it! Now it would be fun but I could not do it in your incredible speed. This is for a very special sort of gamers.

[@stimpy6049]

Please, can we get a full tutorial of this ,I’m trying to make this and i can’t copy it because of some parts that you cut out

[@nuggetoofs2387]

kAN, you should automate getting seeds from the harvest chest into the planting chest. Like so kAN can see

[@anuj7034]

kAN this was amazing! Just loved this. I don't really have this game, but the videos are so enjoyable. By the way, I think making the setup suck, plant, and water while retracting would save time too. Loving these videos, man. Keep 'em coming!

[@AgentWest]

When you were doing the shutoff test at the end it looked like nozzles were not lined up with the end row, therefore i suggest using another sensor-tooth system instead of timers. Also since the contraption 'knows' where each row is you don't really need that 30 second timer. Use the sensor for the planter (since it is the slowest one) to trigger a circuit that advances the gantry until that sensor is triggered, then pauses for the seed to be planted, then advances to the next row. While that setup will most likely be a bit more complicated than a timer the main advantage of it will be the fact that the gantry will come back to 0 at full speed.

[@icreativity5159]

I see this as the proto-“Scrapmecanic Farm tutorial” video

[@cooldudewill07]

The timer that extends the piston keeps looping even when it is turned off does anyone know how to fix that. Edit: i found a fix if you copy the timer where its one 30 second and one 15 change the 15 to a 30 second and link it to every thing else it fixes the problem

[@FishPit]

What do you mean by this? Copy the timer? What 30 seconds? I'm still trying to fix mine.

[@cooldudewill07]

@@FishPit so what i found out is the timer loops when you turn off so what you need to do is like the memory thing to both the xor and and gate and then it will work

[@inzainiaplays]

@@cooldudewill07 still dont follow. do the memory thing where?

[@ScriptCoded]

Another solution to this problem is to hook up the timer circuit like this: The the output from the memory bit and hook it to a NOR-gate. Take the output from the NOR-gate and hook it to another NOR-gate (this is instead of Kan's XOR-gate). Take the output from the second NOR-gate and hook it to an OR-gate (same as Kan's). Take the output from the OR-gate and hook it to the timer (same as Kan's). Take the output from the timer and hook it to the second NOR-gate.

[@mashalex2000]

love your content bro, it's 2024 and I'm still using your instruction in building an automatic farm in crashlanders currently.

[@brodominique3800]

Kan might be my favorite Scrap Mechanic KZbinr if he is good at designing I mean he is so smart and very unique with his creation

[@StevesMakerspace]

I might have figured this out, but it would have taken me a week. You're amazing, kAN.

[@bmwm3300]

you actually dont have to use pipes to get the water out the ocean, you can just put the water tank directly on the vacuum pump, as long as the tank and pump are connected by blocks to the farm, you can still connect the tank with the water gun.

[@peterhazlinger3648]

This is so cool! Maybe the time can be reduced by manually controlling the pistons through controllers connected to timers, so on it's way back it turns off all the pistons at the same time (just fixing the strange thing with the non-timed controllers).

[@edwardtan83]

The second planter isn't really necessary, because if you start harvesting once your first plant is ready the throughput is the grow time and not the harvesting time (assuming your harvesting time is less than the grow time). This also makes it more interesting with a large enough farm because it will be continuously planting, growing, and harvesting.

[@connorhay6037]

wow good job that is complicated and you did great! :) love your channel

[@JonnyLawrenceGaming]

Love the farm, it was actually the inspiration for the one we built in our playthough 😁

[@SirAxart]

This triggered some mad flashbacks from school. All it took was a minute without watching the video and I'm completely lost. It's like ignoring the blackboard for a minute and then seeing it full of letters and numbers. Scary.

[@chrisfinley812]

To make it a 1 minute farm just copy the plant/water/harvest mechanism a cross the bar, yeah it is expensive, but it will work. Also vertical chests would be better.
