Welcome back settling here today I want to show you a design I came up with for a villager sorting system and trading hall now the idea is you have some sort of reservoir of villagers that you’ve got from an infinite villager breeder and you want to figure out which ones Have good trades and keep those and basically just kill the rest so you can come in here and right-click on any of the villagers this one’s a nitwit so if you want to kill him you just look up press the button and some lava will get dispensed and eventually they will burn Today and once he does a new villager is going to be picked up in this mine carts and put into that slot and a cleric is much better so you can kill as many as you want at a time boom boom boom boom they’ll all die and it will Automatically pick up new villagers from the reservoir bring them around through the back and and refill it and so until you don’t have any villagers left in the reservoir so this is a really great way to just sort through your villagers it’s pretty resource efficient it’s pretty fairly compact and yeah just it’s Extendable and everything so the way this works is on the is is based on activator rails so here we have an activator rail if you go through it will be put into this spot with a pressure plate here and the pressure plate detects that I’m here triggers this Redstone torch and that will actually turn off the activator rail so when there isn’t anybody on the pressure plate the active area rail is on and it’ll boot you out on the pressure plate but once there is somebody a villager on this pressure plate it’ll turn out that Activator rail and nothing else will get put into that spot and it’ll go in to look for a different activator rail now there is something important that I need to mention this minecart is going around clockwise and it must always go around clockwise with this design I mean There’s ways to design it for counterclockwise and everything but let me show you what I mean so let’s put a villager in here so the villager will get well hit that activator rail and it’ll get put on to this pressure plate and that’s because the minecart when it Hits an activator rail always looks forward and to the right and left but it looks forward to see which direction to put the villager or whatever its contents are so you put a second one you can see it goes forward and puts it over there because that’s the only available slot Everything else is covered with class if we do it from the other direction though it’s still gonna look forward and just because of the way we have the torch since this plate pressure plate controls this activator rail this one’s still on and while we doubled up here because They looked forward and to the left there – to see where to put the villager now if we put another one in from over here it’s okay it’ll go forward into the right and it’ll get put in the right spot but if it ever goes backwards you May end up with villagers doubled up or tripled up her etc in these slots yeah there’s two of them so yeah let me show you how to build this it’s it’s pretty easy so you start off with well I’ll build like two two in a row and and Just to show you how it tiles so you start for the pressure plate and then you put a torch off the block to the side and block above that and next to that block is where the activator rails are going to go so it’s powered by the Torch now you need to put some powered rails in between it doesn’t have to be with a redstone block if you want you can put down a redstone torch and and put a block about that put down the powered rail next we need to cover up all the slots that the activator rail Could spit out a villager into so you cover up the rail making sure to get all the adjacent and diagonal slots – and now at this point this is good enough this one will look forward and I’ll put it here this want to look forward and Put it here and this is actually well enough covered so that’s all you have to do there so if you just want to manually kill the villagers this is actually pretty close to good enough I mean you’ll you’ll need to like enclose these so the villager can’t escape if you just Want to hit it with your sword in order to kill it this is all be like redstone you need but if you want to have an automated killing system let me show you how to do that so put a temporary block there and it dispenser facing down this little have it a bucket Of lava but we don’t really want to put the lava yet okay so next we need an observer pointed at that one so put a couple temporary blocks there like that so then we’ll do it over on this one too so we have a dispenser and An observer now we need a block on top of that and a block on top of that and this is where the wooden button is gonna go wooden button is important because wooden buttons stay pressed for longer so now when you push it the observer will trigger the dispenser and when it Gets released the observer will trigger it again which will be a good amount of timing for these lava buckets and it just turns out that wooden buttons and lava buckets have about the same amount of time I’ve tested this for quite a few times and I’ve never seen the lava Actually flow so it actually before the lava has a chance to flow this this button will retract the lava so there’s the kill mechanism now you just need to make sure that the villager isn’t gonna be able to escape so we can just put a couple of slabs around it to maximize The sort of visibility to the villager and yeah that’s it so I can put just test it out so let’s put a couple more powered rails and use one villager he goes in let’s put another villager in he’ll go in the second slot these these are both nitwits So let’s kill them these are independent kill mechanisms so it’s okay to use them both at the same time and everything say you basically do this as many times he wants you can have a return track just make sure that when you do that you you Sort of rotate the torches so that like the torches this this one had a torch over here but if you wanted to do one on this side you’d want to make sure let’s see who’s the spacing one two three one two three and so I think it goes no here So you want to make sure the torch was on this side so that when it comes around oh sorry I got it wrong this side so that when it comes around this is the activator rail that’s controlled by that pressure plate and and so when we’re going forward This one this activator will rail will spit the villager out on top of this pressure plate which will turn that off so you need to make sure the correct pressure plate is really linked to the correct activate a rail yeah that’s that’s really all there is to it Oh that’s a different design I was playing with where am i over here so yeah you can these don’t actually have to like you don’t have to have two rows of this if you don’t want you just have one really long row you can have like a Big square of them you can actually get these to be one block closer together by sort of like shifting this half up that direction by one block and then moving it in a block closer and then instead of having these like pairs of buttons he would just have a single row of buttons And like this one would control this villagers death and then there would be one here that would control this the villagers here’s death etc so it’s pretty flexible how you actually want to place this also you don’t have to use glass for any of this this is any block That won’t suffocate a villager similarly here you could you could use glass here or any anything that’s gonna keep the villager from be able to walk out and and you can you can fill in all of the you know if you want to make this an archway or whatever without without Any visible access to the sky or whatever there’s a lot of flexibility with how you actually skin this but yeah it’s pretty straightforward to build pretty quick doesn’t use too many resources that’s about it thanks for watching Video Information
