Insane Minecraft Botania Rafflosia Mana Farm!

Hello internet and welcome to an author plays or in this case an author builds in minecraft even you can kind of see a little village back there but we won’t pay any mind to that because oh we in it to win it so what’s going on here

Well i noticed that there was a particular lack of something on youtube uh specifically for the bitania mod and as a member of the modding minecraft community i just couldn’t let that stand now could i so what i have for us today is an automated using britannia only mind

You using only batanya an automation method for a little flower called the reclosia this little guy right here what this does is it takes in passive generating flowers the day blooms nightshades and hydrangeas that baskey wrongly or rightly decided to nerf and then has given the config back recently

So some things of note before i get into the build is i am playing on minecraft 189 which is using the unofficial but sanctioned i guess you could say betania port so that’s why for instance the spreader in my hand looks a little funky that is actually an elven spreader

Which i’ll be using later on to make a point uh so there is that disclaimer along with all of the bugs that come with minecraft modding and one version 1.8 but either way let’s get into it shall we so the first step for automating our passive generating flora is this uh we

Have nine jaded amaranthi sitting here right here in the center and these flowers generate mystical flowers at the cost of a little bit of mana i have nine of them here in order to ensure that this little field in here fills up and every seven seconds using a hovering hourglass

And a redstone signal to a pulse mana spreader you hit this this drum of the wild causes all the flowers to break and yay flowers everywhere now from there what happens is the flowers are sorted by color as you can see here along the perimeter i have all

The flowers that we’re not going to be utilizing in this build so all of these over here are now sorted by color so if i were to open these up boom and as you can see i’ve been running this for a while in order to test it

So none of those flowers are useful to us which is why they’re sitting there like that if you wanted to take this a little bit differently you could put a a hovering hopper hawk up here near the drum of the wild and do a couple double chests and put

All the flowers in there if you were so inclined but i i don’t know i like sorting in by color your results may vary all right there we go now that i’ve got the rain to stop i can’t believe i forgot that a little command prompt

There but anyways so next we need to get our pedals sorted and crafted specifically uh in order to make our generating floor now what i’ve done is over on the left are the three flowers that we need for the day bloom and on the right the three flowers for the night shade

Uh the reason why this is important you don’t want to just do one or one or any of them like that is because the riflosia actually loses mana generation if it doesn’t feast on different genera passive generating flora so if you give it a day bloom after it ate a day bloom

It’s not going to produce as much mana as if you’d given it a nightshade after that so we can cycle back between these two so we need a minimum two passive flora and that’s what i’m doing right here uh you have this floating hopper hawk right

Here with a mana supply down here from whichever mana generating source you have here i have the creative pool uh that will pick up the flowers from the day and the flowers for the nightshade again using a floating hopper hawk uh these hoppers are set up such that

They feed into one another towards the center by shift right clicking on them and eventually into this crafty crate and as you can see as the flowers come into the crafty crate they are turned into their petals fed into this hopper which goes into this chest as you can

See things are filling up pretty nicely in here so we’re gonna have to uh we’re gonna have to clear our inventory here a little bit there we go like i said i’ve been trying to do a lot of testing from there we have two coporia networks

And this seems to be a bug in 189 so i apologize for the confusion but as you can see this left-hand network and this right-hand network are indeed separate these chests don’t hold anything they’re here just simply to define the network from there you need corporea sparks on the chest with your pedals

Each of these corporea funnels whichever source of seeds you’re going to be utilizing and your source of water which in this case i have a dispenser filling up buckets from an infinite water source the seeds could absolutely be an automated wheat farm or whatever design of your choice i just simply put these

Chests here in order to show you what’s going on so in total that is nine coporia sparks and one master spark per set up for a total of two master sparks and nine copporious marks from there put item frames with the recipe for the flower in this case the nightshade will

Be two blacks a gray purple seeds and then the bucket to refill the apothecary and then the day blooms same exact just different colored flowers from there we have this hovering hourglass which is set to 10 seconds so every 10 seconds this will create one flower and i don’t have this redstone

Here because i wanted to show you guys something in a moment but basically what happens is we come down here and slowly increase the tick delay on these repeaters so for the two yellow or black of the day bloomer night shade respectively uh you’re going to go ahead and do one tick delay

For the gray or orange you’re going to do a two tick delay and same for the light blue or the purple as the case may be a three tick delay for the seeds and then a four tick delay for the bucket and each bit of redstone also

Technically counts as a one tick delay and traveling down a hopper also takes about two or three takes depending on your server lag so we’re getting quite a bit of delay in between our items in that regard uh from there this all feeds into these all feed into

Hoppers i should say these funnels feed into hoppers which are then lined up to feed into this open crate and the open crate with no redstone signal just drops them right into the pedal apathy carrier so this will allow for our items to be automatically dropped into the apothecary crafted and pop out

From there the random carpi are set to pick up and place on the coarse dirt surrounding our vaplosia so the way you go ahead and set that up is you have just a regular grass block and then the coarse dirt sits underneath the random carpus so basically two

Blocks below the random carpus is where you’re trying to plant it needs to be dirt and i’d made the coarse dirts that way i wasn’t planting all over the place on this infinite field of lovely grass so just keep that in mind uh from there the random carpus will

Place the flower next to the fellowsia thor flocia will eat it make some mana delicious uh from there you have petite hopper hawks specifically petite hopper hawks picking up the empty buckets and putting them back into this dispenser and we’ve even got it item framed so it doesn’t pick up the

Uh flowers that we’re generating because we wouldn’t want to dispense flowers we only want to pick up buckets for our infinite water uh just to let you know these hovering hourglasses that activate the dispensers are in a five second delay or cycle i guess you could say and that’s to make

Sure that we always have at least one or two water buckets inside the network when the network fires up there okay so what i’m going to go ahead and do now is i’m going to place this monopole as well as this spreader and bind this spreader to the monopole

Basic stuff i know but this is essentially to make a point for those of you that feel that passive flowers are now dead and never do anything to generate mana for you again well have i got a treat for you what we’re gonna go ahead and do is reconnect

This redstone up here i’m gonna let this run for a total of five minutes and we’re gonna show you guys exactly how much mana this for flossie generates so i’m just gonna go ahead and take this vantage point right here and go ahead and watch the magic

Okay and we’re back so let’s go ahead and see how much mana we generated from this for flows here all right so it looks like about an eighth of a monopole maybe about a tenth or so so in five minutes you can generate about a little over a monopole’s worth of mana

Using this reflocium so seems pretty good compared to where we used to be for passive flowers now obviously it takes a lot more infrastructure now but at least they’re not useless anymore so we definitely have that going for us now something i do want to mention is

The big i will just go ahead and set it today here real quick and we’ll clear the weather there we go uh the big thing here is that i don’t quite i will admit i don’t quite have the timing down for the dispensers here

Um so for those of you out there who are using batanya in something other than a vacuum uh there is a little thing that we’re able to use here to help out our lives if you don’t feel like figuring out the dispensers and that’s these the everful earns now

The ever full urns are from farmcraft and do require a little bit more fiddling than timing for the buckets if you feel so inclined uh but there is obviously this method if you wanted to add one element that is outside of britannia into your build so thank you again everybody out there for

Watching this little video i hope you found it helpful if you have any feedback or alterations to the build that you think would be intelligent or necessary even then go ahead and tell me in the comments below i’m curious to see what you guys are thinking like i said i haven’t seen any

Uh builds yet out there for automated reflocia’s using britannia and well this is my submission to the community so thanks again for watching and i’ll see you guys in the next chapter bye-bye but yeah if i step on that particular block noted with cobblestone why there’s just a font of experience

That shoots out all over the place and i couldn’t tell you why i could not give you rhyme or reason as to how this occurred i was looking for a place to set up a blood magic ritual and just i happened to find this spot that block in particular
