Changelog
AFK Farms · v1.3.0
New Blocks
- AFK End City Farm: new block for Enderman and Shulker. Recipe: 4 Gold Ingots + 4 End Stone + 1 Ender Pearl.
- AFK Aquatic Farm: new block for Squid, Glow Squid, Turtle, Guardian, Elder Guardian and Drowned. Recipe: 4 Gold Ingots + 4 Prismarine Shards + 1 Water Bucket. Mobs inside actually swim (tentacles, shell, swimming pose), with genuinely translucent water.
Facing
- Every AFK Farm block now has a facing side, just like a furnace, it faces you when placed.
New Feature: Colored Wool Farming
- The Sheep farm now accepts all 16 wool colors: whatever color goes in comes back out, and the terrarium sheep is dyed to match.
New Feature: Cooked Meat Chance
- Cow, Sheep, Chicken, Pig, Rabbit and Hoglin have an 8% chance to drop their meat already cooked instead of raw.
Fixes
- AFK Farm and AFK Nether Farm block models rebuilt from scratch with more detail.
- Magma Cube now spawns in the right block (Nether) and hops with fire particles, instead of sliding slowly.
- Zombified Piglin, Enderman, Shulker, Iron Golem and Husk got fixed animations (poses, teleport particles, no more sinking into the floor).
- Every mob's walking pace now stays in sync with its own leg animation, matching real vanilla movement speed.
- Fixed the Farm Guide's crafting recipe and the stretched Magma texture in the Nether block model.
Farm Reassignments
- Enderman and Shulker → AFK End City Farm.
- Squid, Glow Squid, Turtle, Guardian, Elder Guardian and Drowned → AFK Aquatic Farm.
🚧 Coming Next
TBD.
AFK Farms · v1.2.0
New Features
- XP Tank: automatically stores XP from every AFK Farm in the same chunk.
- Holds up to level 30. Once full, extra XP is lost until collected.
- Floating Level + progress bar display, glass fills with green liquid. Only shows aiming at the tank within 8 blocks.
- Three ways to collect: empty hand (all), Glass Bottle (Bottle o' XP), damaged item w/ Mending (instant repair).
- Recipe: 4 Iron Ingots + 4 Glass + 1 Bottle o' Enchanting.
Farm Overhaul
- All drops rebuilt to match vanilla's real loot tables.
- Activation items no longer last forever: 64 uses by default, then break.
- 2 new farms: Breeze and Wither Skeleton (via Soul Bottle).
- Fuel configurable per-type, including Blaze Powder and Nether Star.
- New
config.json to tune everything without touching code.
Soul Bottle
- For the most dangerous mobs, craft an empty Soul Bottle and really kill the mob to capture it.
- Follows the same durability rule as other activation items.
- Model swaps automatically between empty and essence-filled.
Fixes
- Skeleton/Wither Skeleton no longer swing the wrong arm. Now they properly aim the bow or raise the sword.
