Gold and Bartering
1.72M 1D 512 Piglin Bartering Farm
An advanced late-game bartering farm for technical singleplayer worlds and servers.
N/AItems
1.20.2-1.21.1
Complex
Consumption
(1.20.2-1.20.6 Variant) Gold Ingot
-307.2k/h
(1.21 Variant) Gold Block
-34.1k/hr
Positives
- Significant lag optimizations compared to most previous designs
- Fault detection: will stop itself if storage fills up, shulker boxes run low, or chunk loader runs low on items
- Can enable or disable collection of any collected item type
- Self chunk loading
- 1 dimensional aside from chunk loading
Negatives
- Likely doesn't work in 1.21.2+ due to honey changes
- Long shutdown process: chunk loading stays on until this is completed
- Long duration between restarts
- Large restricted area around the piglins: see notes
- Large and complex build
Instructions
Notes
- See thread.
- 1.21 version can be used in 1.20.3+ with experimental features.
- Outer orange boxes (inclusive) around the piglins denote where piglins will pathfind to if full opaque blocks are present: having them will marginally increase lag.
- Inner orange boxes (inclusive) around the piglins denote where piglins will try to throw bartered items if full opaque blocks are present: having them will lead to item loss and potentially break the farm.
- Two orange stained glass by the box hopper-line in the build denote where it may be possible to create budded locked hoppers: be careful when building.
- Wool and hopper above empty box and gold ingot box input are for creative testing - omit if building in survival.
- Avoid being within 16 blocks of piglins when running, as players may become barter targets.
- All blue and orange stained glass blocks can be omitted when building.
- Farm is should be spawnproofed even when running; however, having mob switch on may reduce lag.
- Many oddities are intentional; do not modify unless you are 100% sure what you are doing.
- Avoid disabling collection for an item type during operation, as this may lead to loss later on.
Build
- Align blue glass to lowest corners of a subchunk: subchunk alignment is recommended for optimal performance.
- Fill piglins with a similar process to [this video](<https://youtu.be/DXOKeNmerEI&t=458>), except push in the final glass block from the side instead of towards the stairs so all piglins are in the corner: try to match positions in the schematic.
- Ideally, all piglins should have golden boots.
- Prefill filter loaders with the prefill pattern depicted in https://discord.com/channels/748542142347083868/1065569000899223572/1102189263858188329.
Usage
- 1. Load empty boxes
- 2. Load gold ingot boxes
- 3. Turn on switch
- 4. Wait a few seconds for chunkloading start
- 5. If fault is detected, correct fault reset indictator before restarting
