Oare TVFor Minecraft Bedrock Edition (MCBE/MCPE, Windows 10, Windows 11, PS4, PS5, XBOX, Switch, Android, IOS, Mobile) v.1.20.62+
After popular demand, I am back with my latest creeper farm for Minecraft Bedrock Edition. With a slightly changed, easier to rethrow Trident Killer, this is the latest version of what I call the SYEECF - " Simple Yet Extremely Efficient Creeper Farm" . The simple version of this design yields about 46 stacks of gunpowder per hour in an Ice spikes or Frozen ocean biome. That is around 2950 gunpowder items. The advanced version presented in the second part of the video yields about 48 stacks per hour in the same biomes. That is well over the 3000 GP/hr threshold.
That is, in a fairly compact package made up of a total of 15 platforms that are 17 x 17 squares.
This is a lot easier to build and more productive than any Ghast farm. Trust me, I made a very nifty one (link below). So I have a good basis for comparison.
If you have any comments or questions, please feel free to hit the comment section and I will do my best to reply.

2-way flying machines on Bedrock Edition. Some say they are complicated. Some say they are unreliable. Some say they don't work at all.
Of course, none of the above is true.
In this guide, we'll showcase three major designs that work reliably and steadily. We will go over all their merits and flaws, and explain in detail how to build them.
I hope they will find a lot of uses in your worlds! If there is enough demand, I will do a follow-up guide explaining how to build the extensions, along with the 3-way designs that are briefly seen during the video.

Everyone wants them. Every YouTuber will pretend they made "the BEST" of them.
But actually, very few people actually know how to make them soar.
This original design for Minecraft Bedrock Edition v1.21+ is my take at solving one of the issues all other creeper farms have been sharing since the dawn of time: spawnability. That is, the amount of spawnable spots that are made available for Creepers on each layer of the farm. And I have good news. Gone are the days of Creeper farms that sacrifice any spawnability at all. This farm provides no less than 100% platform efficiency on each and every single layer, in a compact single tower design tailored for the default simulation distance that is used on Realms and solo worlds: 4 chunks.
As a result: it boasts top rates in v1.21, at over 55 stacks of gunpowder per hour. That is over one full double chest, or if you prefer, over 3,500 gunpowder items - all of that in a compact and relatively cheap package that is easy to build, and only uses 17 cave platforms that measure 17x17 blocks. On a per-block basis, these results are unmatched, and even surpass the most efficient pre v1.21 designs.
Besides the main farm, the video also showcases an extended version using a surface cap platform, which reaches over 60 stacks per hour with comparatively low efforts.
The main version of the farm also delivers about 60 levels of XP per hour AFK - a figure the extended version bumps up to around 62 levels.
For the Main farm: - Slabs: smooth_stone_slab: 945 - Solid blocks: gray_concrete: 656 white_concrete: 2601 light_gray_concrete: 2601 blue_concrete: 289 packed_ice: 3 pink_concrete: 1 soul_sand: 1 (Note: you can replace the concrete with any solid block of your choice, such as cobblestone, deepslate or wood planks.) - Glass: glass: 1344 (Note: Only 289 glass blocks are actually necessary.

Experience points. Up until recently, the major sources to get them on Bedrock Edition were a variety of hostile mob farms - such as portal ticking gold farms or Guardian farms.
But with the release of version 1.21, there is a new player in town: potions of infestation! These cause infested mobs to drop large amounts of silverfish, which can be farmed for XP.
You have probably seen all over YouTube many XP farm designs taking advantage of the great regeneration capabilities of Allays to generate XP. Some of these are good, and one of these is truly great: the one that was created by ArchThunder. Go grab it on the Bedrock Archive Discord Server, link below!
However, Allay based designs all share one common flaw: they can't be setup and moved easily. In my playstyle, I find myself often wanting a source of XP near my digging or construction sites.
This lead me to develop today's farm: an ultra-simple, portable farm that can be setup anywhere in about 10 minutes.
The farm is usable as soon as early mid-game, but truly begins to shine around late-mid-game.
At the end of the video, you will also find a bonus farm which produces both XP and massive amounts of regeneration effect (over 55 HOURS per hour AFK)!
Thank you for watching!
UPDATE July 7, 2024: ArchThunder released a video for his Allay-based XP farm. Link below!
For the basic version of the farm: - 1 magma block, - 3 soul sand blocks, - 1 comparator, - 1 repeater, - 3 trapdoors, - 3 wall blocks, - 1 pressure plate, - about a dozen redstone dusts, - two buckets of water, - two buttons, - three tridents. - a couple of glass blocks, - About a stack of any block of your choice
For the fully automated version: - All of the above, plus - 3 comparators, - 1 redstone block - 3 pistons, - 1 sticky piston, - 2 redstone torches, - some extra redstone dust, - some extra blocks of your choice (under half a stack) - a dispenser, - at least 4 hoppers, - at least one chest or barrel, - 1 repeater

Besides creeper farms, there are several other types f mob farms that stopped working with Minecraft v1.21 due to the change that was made in how mobs spawning occurs.
Efficient mooshroom farms were among the victims.
Until I found a little trick that allows them to live again.
The result is the farm - or rather the two farms that are presented in this video. The first one is simple and efficient. It produces about 42 stacks of cooked beef (aka steak) per hour, without using a single fuel item to cook the meat. It is simple to build and compact. The second one is a lot more complex. It has approximately the same rates for cooked beef, but adds to it about 8,650 bone meal items - converted from about 95,000 red mushrooms - due to a very interesting mechanic in the game.

The bogged.
This new mob may not look like much, but as of this video, it has just become the center of one of the most efficient farms ever made for Minecraft Bedrock Edition. With only one single, surface only platform in simulation distance 4, this weird skeleton variant allows us to produce a whopping 24,000 stackable items, including over 17,000 mushrooms in a completely automated design. It also makes you bones, arrows and poisoned arrows. With Added composters and crafters, it can turn into a very god bone meal farm, producing about 9,500 bone meal items per hour.
And that is - without even taking things semi-split density!

As you probably know by now, Minecraft v1.21 for Bedrock Edition introduces a major change in the way mobs spawn. This change breaks all creeper farms that existed previously.
This video is a tutorial about an efficient creeper farm for v1.21+ which produces good amounts of gunpowder: about a double chest per hour in a decently cheap package.
Solid blocks: white_concrete: 1564 light_gray_concrete: 1114 smooth_stone_slab: 1793 orange_concrete: 1 (You can replace with solid blocks and slabs of your choice)

Glass: white_stained_glass: 310 (The White stained glass can be replaced with solid blocks, as it is only used in the item collection system. If you choose to go the solid block way, you WILL need to mob proof all the item collection system.)
Again, you can use the solid blocks/buttons/trapdoors/slabs of your choice, and replace all the white stained glass with solid blocks. You WILL need to spawn proof the item collection if you go the solid block route. =====

Here is a trident killer that automatically cooks meat, and works against all overworld land mobs. (Note: looting won't work against rabbits in this design! It does work for other animals.) With a few adjustments, this can be used in the "General meat farm" design that is published on my channel.

When it comes to Trident killers that deliver both items and XP to the player, even at feet level, the bell design I posted previously does get the job done, quite well. However, after posting it, I was left with an aftertaste of unfinished business.
Because there was one area where the bell design couldn't work: wide killing chambers. So I took thigs back to the drawing board in order to create this new design, which is compatible with wide chambers.
The focus in this video is placed on the bottom trident killer. It is not directional and works in any orientation. It uses the interesting collision box of lateral hanging signs in order to work. The top TK can be anything you want: I would suggest using grindstones as is done in the video.
I hope you will find it useful in your designs![Minecraft Preview - Teaser] Creeper Farm v1.21 - the BIG GUY [5500 gunpowder/h, Sim4]Oare TV2024-04-08 | For Minecraft Bedrock Edition (MCBE/MCPE, Windows 10, Windows 11, PS4, PS5, XBOX, Switch, Android, IOS, Mobile) v.1.21.0.20+
Here is the last of my teaser series about Bedrock Edition Creeper farms for Minecraft v1.21.
The base layout is the same as in my previous video, but this time around, we are taking things BIG, with a semi-split density, simulation 4 desgin.
The rates for this version of the farm are about 85-86 stacks of gunpowder per hour (5500 to 5600 items) It will also take the player from level 0 to 71-72 in one hour.
A world download (and probably a full tutorial) will be made available when the final version of v1.21 is released.

As you may know, there is a big change about mob spawning that is coming up in v1.21 of Minecraft Bedrock Edition. It will affect several types of mob farms at various degrees, but most importantly, it deals a death blow to most creeper farms as they are known up to v1.20.
This made me think. 1 day after the annoucement, I posted a teaser for a first concept which worked well. But this concept had one flaw: it was not compatible with split-density.
Luckily, I received a billiant comment from Machbar24 (thank you!) which led me to develop, 1 day later (on April 5th, 2024), this new protoytpe. The way it works it by combining path finding with water streams. Once the creepers path find into the water streams, they can't exit them anymore, until they are dropped into 5 chutes directly leading to trident killers. Compared to the previous model, it is roughly 18.5% more efficient, bumping up the rates from 27 stacks to about 32 stacks of gunpowder per hour (approximately 2050 items).
I think it is not too bad. Especially considering the fact this design can be scaled up for semi-split density in simulation distance 4, or full split-density in sim 6+!

For Minecraft Bedrock Edition (MCBE/MCPE, Windows 10, Windows 11, PS4, PS5, XBOX, Switch) v.1.21.0.20+
As you may know, the upcoming v1.21 is about to introduce a major change in the way mobs spawn on Bedrock Edition. Instead of spawning on the northwest of their blocks, they will from now on spawn right in the center. This will break all creeper farms designs in a way or another.
In order to prepare for the release, here is a teaser for a creeper farm design made in Minecraft Preview v 1.21.0.20. This farm is tailored for the changes that are present in this version. I will keep testing it until the final v1.21 drops, and will make a tutorial then if the farm still works as intended.
The rates are about 27 stacks of gunpowder per hour (a little over 1700 items). It also takes the player from level 0 to level 44 in terms of XP.

This compares favorably to my previous design, the " Creeper Churner", in every single aspect. With over 2900 Gunpowder items (= over 45 stacks) per hour in an Ice Spikes/Frozen Ocean biome, it is simply a best-in-class design for its size and footprint.

Not all iron farms are created equal. This one, for example, is unnecessarily complicated, but it does a little something that I find really cool at the same time!
While resolutely on the wacky side, it does remain fully functional, and rivals regular iron farms in terms of rates (around 380 iron ingots per hour).

After posting a concept some time ago, here is the final version of my "instakill" raid farm for simulation distance 4, which can be used on Realms as it is.

After the slightly complicated engine I posted earlier, here is a very simple (but "fuel" limited) slow 2 way engine idea. It's a concept I actually explored years ago back when the target block was added to the game, but I don't think I ever did a video on it on my channel.

I just saw on the Bedrock Slimestone Discord Server a request for a slow 2-way flying machine engine. I don't know if this fits the bill, but the mechanisms involved might be worth archiving so here goes.
For some reason, people really seem to dislike returning stations on Bedrock Edition. I suppose it is simply because they don't match the image of a Java Flying machine.
It is a sad thing. I, as one, do quite like returning stations. I think they open a lot of possibilities and allow for very reliable ways to perform tasks.[Minecraft]Flying RV v2.0[Now with a roof!

Aeons ago, when I first joind the TechRock SMP, I promised the great MajEllico if I were to ever build a base, it would be a 2 way flying one. I made the basis to fulfill that promise back in June of 2021 with this video: youtu.be/jJY9fVRmZkg
Today I'm taking things a notch higher. This time around, the contraption has a roof, and an easily walkable design. It is also infinitiely expandable (if you are crazy enough to want to do such a thing) depth-wise.
OK I'll be a 100% honest with you: I spent way too much time on this these past couple of days. Also I think it can break if abused (even in the slightest). It would probably be a lot more dependable with a slower engine.
I was there thinking about how to stack a bunch of villages without spending a couple of days doing so. And this idea for a method popped into my mind. Basically the core concept is using a flying machine to speed up the process. Not shown in the video: you can actually place all the beds on the concrete before you start moving the Flying machine. I hope it finds uses in your worlds/SMPs/Realms.
After tackling general mob farms and iron farms, it was time for something a little different in my "movable" series. So here comes the "movable drowned farm". Featuring a movable trident killer.
This one presented a few challenges which made it a lot harder to build than the previous farms: - the need for a roof that allows surface spawns, - the need for complete darkness (entire lateral encasing with solid walls), - 2 water layers (bubbles and water streams)
Due to the tendency of dispensers to misfire whenever the slightest water pending tick happens, the farms uses an extremely slow engine to move forward.
Tridents don't fall off from the TK while the contraption is moving, so the TK can be immediately reused as soon as it reaches its destination.
Liberally inspired by Caleeb's concept (link bleow), here is a fully featured NavyNexus type trident killer for my next project. The trident doesn't fall off while the contraption is in movement, so it can be reused as is when it reaches its goal point. It features almost everything a basic trident killer needs: drop chute, hoppers and chest. The only thing that's missing is the lever, but I couldn't find a way to implement a fully reliable slimestone T-flip flop. If anyone has got a link to one, please share in the comments!

The next logical step after my movable mob farm was this: a movable iron farm. Villagers are moved in a large free-roaming pod. The only thing that can't move are the beds, which will need replacing.
Note that in this design, villagers will unlink from their beds at night. It might be possible to design a version where they have access to their beds, maybe for a V2?
A slow engine is required here in order to prevent dispensers from misfiring. As a consequence, the farm moves quite slowly.
Here is a follow-up to my fully movable mob farm concept. This time around, it uses observers as spawning spots, doubling the spawning platforms' efficiency - bringing it up from 25% to 50%! Amongst other improvements are: The AFK spot now moves along with the farm, and there is a (very rudimentary) item collection system.
Of course, don't build this in your survival world: a regular mob farm will have far better yields. Moving this thing is also extremely laggy.
EDIT: FULL Release is now available. Go check it out at the following URL: youtu.be/EiuakZm5E2I
Warning: THIS IS NOT A GOOD IDEA.
This is the base concept for something I've wanted to make for a few years: a movable mob farm. It relies on fence posts to block spiders and powder snow to force mobs to fall down (open trapdoors didn't work well for some reason). The lag is even more extreme than I ever anticipated, and this is on a Ryzen 7 5700X with RTX4060 GPU. With a render distance reduced to 20 chunks.
There is no collection system yet. I doubt I will ever try to implement one, it would in and of itself add probably as much lag as the contraption itself.
And the lag is already so intense the whole thing tends to break apart after moving a few blocks.
Special shoutout to Caleeb and the Amelix server members who have been (jokingly) mentioning movable mob farms in recent conversations, this is what finally made me take the plunge.
EDIT: I made a mistake when cloning the spawning platforms for the version of the farm shown in the video. The air gap between two platforms should be 3, rather than 2. The world download provided below contains the fixed version of the farm.
Here is a simple concept for a delay-less 3-way flying machine that could be used in contraption such as world eaters.

This little experiment is a farm aimed at creating dried kelp blocks by drying kelp *with* dried kelp blocks, created with the crafter.
One dried kelp block is enough to smelt 20 items. Dried kelp bocks are made with 9 dried kelp items, which means one single dried kelp block can make over 2 new dried kelp blocks. As a consequence, it is possible to create free fuel profits.
It takes 5 seconds to dry one fresh kelp into a dried kelp item. By using 116 kelp plants, we can match this rate by outputting one fresh kelp item every 5 seconds. Harvesting is done by a clock, itself also tailored to be as close as possible to 5 seconds.
This allows us to create a self-sufficient loop which creates a profit of a little over 40 dried kelp blocks per hour.

Here is the last (for now) episode of my "crafter series" for Minecraft Bedrock Edition. This time around, we are using a feedtape design, inspired by Red Thunder (link to their channel below). This specific design uses dummy items to craft any item without having to manually select slots on the crafters. It is much faster - and more expensive - than the hopper line designs I uploaded before. The design is equipped with a flushing mechanism to safely remove unused items from the crafters sothat recipes can safely be cycled through. A few unwanted items can get through on each batch, depending on the recipe, but the spillage shouldn't be too bad.

After reading a message by RedThunder on Discord and seeing various posts on Reddit, I decided to make a version of my auto-crafter that doesn't require the user to manually adjust slots inside of the crafter. This works by using a dummy item that gets filtered out before the item is crafted. The redstone could probably be made a lot better, as usual with my contraptions!
This is a follow-up to my original universal automatic crafter for Minecraft Bedrock Edition, which is designed to prevent hopper randomness. As its predecessor, it loops item creation, has an on/off switch and a stopping mechanism to prevent the contraption from running when one of the droppers is empty.
But thanks to input from GoldenHelmet403, this new version 2.0 is a lot more compact and faster than the initial release.

To complete my videos on regeneration farms, here is the ultimate version, using an ocean monument and guardians' high spawning rates to maximize yields. Special thanks to Qeleriey without whom this farm may never have seen the light of day. It yields over 55 hours of regen per hour AFK with 40 axolotls (or over 12.5 hours with 10 axolotls) along with over 4000 guardian items and 60 levels of XP.

Here are not one, but two simplified and revised versions of my AFK regeneration effect farm for Minecraft Bedrock Edition. The farms yield between 11 and 15 hours of regeneration effect per hour AFK, along with a selection of items such as copper, ink sacs, glow ink sacs or tridents.

Here is a revised version of my single tower general mob farm. This version outputs around 7500 stackable items per hour while delivering 74 levels of XP to the player.
One thing I forgot to mention in the video is that it is better to have some form of regen while AFKing at the farm, due to monsters spawning with thorns! Another thing I forgot to cover: the TK is only fully relog proof when facing north or west, not south or east.

The video compares two designs: a traditional one using observers, and one that uses an optimized clock to cut sugar cane. Both use the exact same number of plants. The results speak for themselves. Not only is the clock-based design more compact, it is also more efficient.
The clock is optimized according to the number of sugar cane plants to farm. In this example we have 96 plants (for aesthetics reasons), for which the optimized clock solves to about 13.5 seconds.
The clock is adjusted per the following formula: (1/((2.5 x (number of plants)/65536))/20 = clock time in seconds.
Rates with 96 plants: about 4 stacks of sugar cane per 96 plants per hour

Here is a simple Phantom farm for MCBE which, contrarily to most similar farms you will find on the Internet, doesn't require 2 shulker boxes full of magma blocks to build! Using trident killers, it is also quite efficient. (6 stacks of phantom membrane & 31 LVL per hour)

Taking advantage of what is seemingly a bug that prevents all mobs but slime (and pillagers) from spawning in Mangrove Swamps, here is an extremely simple slime farm - probably the one of the simplest you can build in the game. Heavily affected by moon phases, this farm isn't a very heavy hitter, producing only about 500 slime balls per hour on average. But if you don't use them a lot, it might be exactly right for you!

Taking advantage of split density, which allows us to double the number of spawned mobs, this creeper farm produces about 7,400 gunpowder items per hour (around 115 stacks), in simulation distance 4. It also has an XP delivery system, allowing for about 80 levels peer hour. For your SMP needs!
