Hey everyone silent here welcome back to another video do you know how to AFK what kind of question even is that don’t you just leave your console your controller your keyboard mouse and PC behind and just go do something isn’t that all AFK is silent no no it is not There is actually a lot more to afking than you might expect do you know how to afking about crashing burning losing all of your progress crashing the world breaking the farm that you’re afking at or corrupting something maybe maybe not keep on watching if you want to learn All the tips tricks that come with properly afking you can’t just go AFK anywhere and you can’t just go AFK at any time and you can’t just go AFK without properly preparing because otherwise you will get pissed performance and that is basically the point of this video I will be telling You all the tips and tricks and everything that you can possibly know about how to properly AFK and not lose all of your progress and how to back up your worlds how to make your consoles stay on and how to make your controllers stay on as well this video is mainly for Minecraft players but the information in this video can be easily adapted and applied to many other games very easily uh I will cover the more specific or Minecraft specific things at the end of this video now the first thing that you need to do when going AFK is make sure That your console is not going to turn off so on Xbox one you just go down here on your guide you go down to settings you click all settings and then once that loads you go all the way down here to power and start up it’s the second Option here power mode and start up and then literally the first thing here uh click on that it’s either 1 hour of inactivity it’ll shut off after 6 hours or the final option do not turn off automatically if you’re planning on going AFK for a long time definitely Have that off I just have that off anyway because um sometimes I I go do things anyway if you are on PlayStation 4 you just go to settings power save settings and then set time until PS4 turns off pretty pretty simple if you’re on a PC then just Google search um your Your operating system so like Windows 10 um how to make not auto shut off pretty simple there I don’t want to cover every single operating system there are way too many of those anyway so the next bit is how to make your controller not turn off first off make sure that your Controller is plugged in to your console um on Xbox one that is just using a micro USB cable into the top of your controller uh you just plug that directly into your console make sure you take the batteries out of your console and set your controller in a safe place Where it’s not going to get sat on and no cats are going to bar on it and if you’re on PC your accessories like your mouse and keyboard those shouldn’t shut off if your PC itself is told to not shut off so that is how you make your Stuff not shut off in the first place now let’s get to some more advanced things now if you’re going AFK fishing or maybe you’re automatically throwing potions to kill mobs at like Guardian Farm or something then you’re going to want to know how to press down a button On your controller um for very long time without it being unpressed so on controllers on Xbox one and PlayStation 4 controllers you actually don’t want to hold down either of the triggers for extended periods of time um if you do then they’ll get all squeaky kind of like that very squeaky And they’ll get all loose so you’ll actually be damaging your controllers if you put a rubber band or some tape around uh the triggers to hold them down so what I would suggest is going to controls and then remapping either your left or right uh triggers to be one of Your bumpers and that makes it so that um you will be pressing down your butt or your bumpers for a very long time using a rubber band or something and your bumpers are much more sturdy and stronger than your triggers are they don’t have has weak of Springs in them So for an Xbox One controller you’re going to want to put a rubber band around it something like that you’re going to get you’re going to want a somewhat strong rubber band nothing too terrible um don’t use tape or anything because the residue from that gets kind Of gross and on the PlayStation 4 you’re going to want to wrap a rubber band something like that if you’re on PC and you want to have Minecraft think that you’re holding down like left click or right click or something then I’m I’m actually going to link you to an Entirely different video by Exuma void very good video very helpful and it actually uses a bit of a trick inside of Minecraft um that makes it so that you actually don’t need to press any buttons at all you just your mouse and keyboard are just sitting there perfectly normal Nothing on them no weights or anything it’s just a trick inside of Minecraft um anyway so that’s how you hold down your buttons If You’re Going AFK fishing or something before you even think about going a AFK overnight you should absolutely copy your world you need to copy your world that’s mandatory Otherwise bull crap could happen and you could lose a lot of progress or be just just bad times can happen so on Console it is pretty simple um once you are in your load folder of Your World um whichever world you want to copy just press y or something it’ll tell you down At the bottom of the screen uh what button to press and then you want to go down to copy save and it’ll ask you if you want to just press yes and then after you copy save you will have two copies of the world it be exact identical copies um I would suggest Renaming one of them to have the date that you copied it so like this one is my let’s play World from 72117 this one’s from 71717 and that’s a lot of sevens uh yeah so on so forth it’s pretty simple pretty easy and also when you are going AFK Absolutely um if you have copied your world have autosave on that way if you’re going AFK overnight uh if you lose power or something or if the game crashes you don’t lose all of your AFK progress and yeah that’s pretty simple stuff right also you can’t just go AFK Anywhere you want to make sure that you protect the entire area and you know light it up make sure nothing’s going to spawn um also beware of trolls creepers and also Griefers if you’re on if you’re in your own world um then you’re fine make sure you have it in offline mode as Well so this next part should be pretty obvious if you are going AFK overnight put everything that you are not using like all of your armor all of your tools weapons food blocks put all that stuff in a chest somewhat nearby maybe like 15 blocks away or your Ender Chest um that Way if you get blown up by a creeper um somehow and the chest of your stuff is right next to you uh the chest of stuff doesn’t not get blown up and all the stuff despawns that is most everything that you need to know about going AFK There’s just a few more things such as always do as much as you possibly can while you’re AFK If your player is just sitting there doing absolutely nothing then that’s bad you don’t want that set up an AFK fish farm there or something your players should be absolutely doing Something if you’re going AFK otherwise there there’s no point also set up as many automatic Farms as you can you always want to have at least two different Farms an iron farm or like a crop Farm or a mob farm something you want to be doing as much as you can um While you’re AFK that way it’s the most the most effective AFK that you can get and that is enough information to fill a book anyway guys thank you for watching this video that is going to do it uh subscribe if you are new hit me up in the comment section with any questions Comments or
