[@formerctgovernordannelmall1452]

Most helpful truffle guide ive seen, definitely earned a sub. However, just a little piece of constructive criticism, try partially scripting your videos. You repeated yourself occasionally and sometimes it took you a while to fully explain certain points. The video could have been a few minutes shorter than it was. Otherwise, keep em coming!

This guys laugh is the most and least contagious laugh at the same time, its fantastic. Love the vids and farms!

[@Gnurklesquimp]

I've made a slight change to mine: instead of dropping down I have a backwalled box below the worms, where I teleport to pick them up slightly more reliably with a bit less fiddling. It seems it actually works as an active farm when I stand down there, if I place a few more traps I could probably have my net auto-click there as an alternative, I figured those fire traps have pretty nice hitboxes to deal with the spores so using a couple of those already, time to see if it works.

[@kokadosh8763]

Your design works amazing! I have an average of 6-11 worms per 5 mins. I play on mobile btw

[@PeaBraine]

hery man just a tip, I like your videos and they provide a great level of information, but there's a lot of excess space in your videos. if you trimmed the fat, your videos would be a lot more easier to take it. or at least provide annotations as to where content starts. i.e. when you start talking about how to build the farms, when you start to talk about how to harvest truffleworms etc. just a tip. because I often find myself going to other videos instead of sitting here for 3 minutes trying to filter through 20 minutes of excess. you feel me?

[@Danielxxup]

Thanks again! Just build this farm but without the traps since I'm building everything pre-hardmode. Also I made the center hole 3 blocks wide, will that be a problem you think?

[@TheSecretLevel]

Hey Daniel, thank you it was my pleasure, I'm really glad you liked it! Also that shouldn't be a problem, I just started at 4 blocks for no real reason and kept it that way since it worked. If you find you run into any issues though, feel free to give me a shout. Also I always encourage anyone to experiment in their own ways with my farms, because they're not perfect and who knows what you might come up with! Cheers

[@XoIoRouge]

for setting up in Pre-Hardmode, did you try a bunch of normal dart traps? Is that effective or just a waste?

[@helliox2487]

wow, come to think about that, it takes 1350 glowing mushrooms to make enough shroomite bars to craft 1 set of shroomite armor (with 1 head piece out of 3 different) plus the two additional great items which are the Hoverboard and the Digging Claw. 15 glowing mushrooms required to convert regular Chlorophyte bar into a shroomite bar, 90 shroomite bars in total for the whole armor set with hoverboard and digging claw, so 90 x 15 = 1350. basically, if you're a ranger class player, whether you like it or not, you'll HAVE to expand an existing natural glowing mushroom biome into a farm in order to get such amounts of mushrooms without too much delays to be able to upgrade your gear and armor right after you craft your first pickaxe/drill strong enough to dig out Chlorophyte.

[@jr33dy68]

Dude, you deserve a lot more subs than you have. You earned another one👍

Finally a good, easy setup for truffles thank you so much!

[@XoIoRouge]

TWENTY ONE!? I remember the one time, a long time ago, the *only* time I was able to catch a Truffle Worm and I was like, "Man those things are RARE! and Tough!" And then you preamble with "In twenty minutes, I managed to catch..." And I can see the inventory and I'm like, "Ah. 2 Truffle Worms per 10 minutes. That's way better than I've ever done." Twenty... freaking one...

dart traps should work just as fine, but a bit slower. also, you cannot get truffle worms in a pre hardmode world

How do you actuate traps and keep them actuated while they're wired up?

You put an actuator on a trap.. activate it once so it becomes actuated.. then remove the actuator again. The trap will stay actuated.

[@Jeff-dl4dx]

Could you provide the Farm map for me to see the traps? I don't speak English, it was difficult to understand very well where to put each trap and the links. Sorry

[@ShadowFoxx3120]

I'm playing in tmodloader for my current playthrough with very few content mods, so I know this build should still apply. I know that part of why those Spear Traps on top are there is to destroy the spores spawned by the Giant Fungi Bulb enemies. However, a lot of those spores end up shooting too far down to be hit by the spear traps. Any suggestions (FYI my build is pre-Plantera, so I only have regular Dart Traps. I can't use Spiky Ball Traps if that's what blocks most of the spores, but I'm guessing the main solution is having enough traps to kill the enemies quicker than they can kill you, as right now I only have enough for 1 column as opposed to 7)?

[@Xaiuyn]

I don’t think I have yellow wire on Xbox one could I just wire those up with green wire also and have them linked with the other traps?

[@Htiy]

Maybe this is a dumb question, but I’m in pre hard mode preparing for hard mode, and cave enemies spawn in my mushroom farm.. why?

Would turning the little afk room into a house for the mushroom NPC affect truffle worm spawnrate? or only the mob spawnrate

[@OneLostTexan]

Truffle can’t live in the cavern layer. He requires the surface.

[@johnyarnall5882]

Hey man how did you get the mushroom Boone baddies to spawn? All I'm getting is slimes and normal worms to spawn. My Biome is in the underground portion at 136' standing in my hut

[@imapieceofgarbage3072]

Does anyone know why the platforms have to be 3 blocks vertically apart? I'm building this in pre-hardmode so I can have it ready for hardmode, but I won't have access to the temple traps for quite a while. I could always try using dart traps to kill the mobs but I imagine it wouldn't be very efficient. Would it be fine to have the platforms 2 blocks or even 1 block apart, therefore it'd still spawn mushrooms and the worms? Wouldn't this prevent certain types of enemies from spawning so there's not as much of a need for traps, or does it affect truffle worm spawns as well?

[@Xechor]

Video starts at 4:40

[@loukasmarkopoulos]

Do i NEED the traps?Also, can i put lava next to the safehouse (instaid of spikeballs) or will it mess with anything?

[@Namii..]

Tell me about it, I might just use lava

[@Warlance001]

I haven't been able to verify it myself but even in hardmode I believe if you make that center house truffle's house the npc will prevent mobs from spawning and you should get only critters, I'm pre-hardmode in my current playthrough though so I am unable to confirm as of now

[@hiraeth9620]

Truffle only spawns near a Surface Mushroom Biome, and Truffle Worms only spawn in an Underground Mushroom Biome.

Just built this yesterday, wires and all, and I gotta say this thing works! Wiring was super easy with Grand Design and a good amount of coins, had to scour a few temples for enough traps though. My only gripe with it is that Mimics still drop through the 2-block gaps at the sides, is there any way to prevent it? Lost 3-4 worms cause I looked away for a couple seconds, which means it's not 100% AFK efficient in my case...

[@XoIoRouge]

Try putting a single block, of any kind, floating above the gap and to the left. Like this: x ======___=== Hopefully KZbin lines up. The ___ show the Two-Width gap, and the X (any block) is one block to the LEFT and two blocks UP. This will cause enemies to jump over the block, and also the gap too. Though since I haven't ran into this issue yet, I haven't needed to try this fix, it might no work.

[@woolcereal]

How do you make the traps transparent. Like in you farm your able to walk through the spear traps

[@jkolikovec]

I think its actuators bro

[@Predator2653]

HOenstly.. i can't work out how to get the traps to stay actuated.. They keep freaking out and toggling for me. I'm way too new to this wiring stuff.

[@maj429]

Place the trap, then place an actuator on it. Then actuate it. The trap will fire, and with go inactive. Now remove the actuator. Activate the trap again. It will stay inactive, but still fire.

[@ragincaucasian9209]

i added a mushroom wall to my farm room for cosmetics does that affect my spawning for truffle worms at all?

[@daspiciesttrain7515]

If for the whole thing yes since the worm is a mob it needs no walls behind it to spawn.

Basically he puts the traps to kill the unnecessary mobs and he actuates the blocks so they basically disappear so all the worms and musrooms fall down

so those long rows of actuators grow blue like that? what do you need mud blocks for?

the glowing mushroom blocks spread through the mud, also, a hint, chlorophyte spreads through mud too, try placing some chlorophyte ore with mud around and see the magic

[@theoesser6150]

Yeah that would be really helpful

[@commie4164]

that depends on your resolution. enemies wont spawn "on screen" but what is "on screen" is dependent on your resolution. the maximum spawn distance for pc is something in the nature of 100 blocks left and right of player position. and 50 up and down. its a bit less than both of those but whatever. all you need is to have your farm extend a sufficient distance beyond your screen. honestly about 10 blocks is probably enough. that will trigger spawns but not have so much excess space that enemies have time to kill worms if they spawn on the same level.

[@rottenrod2391]

If you notice in each row the trap closest to the middle of his farm is light colored, whereas all the rest of the traps are dark. The darker traps were all actuated to the inactive state making them pass-thru. (place the trap put an actuator on it, wire the actuator to a switch, flip[ the switch to toggle the state of the trap and with it in the inactive state remove the switch, wire and actuator) You will also notice that in each row he left the inner trap non-actuated so that it acts as a barrier to keep the mobs out of the middle of the farm.
