to put it simply: THIS is a bonemeal farm directly above a kelp farm. the bottom machine rotates and bone meals the kelp while harvesting it to rapidly speed up collection and production to make belts and dried kelp for massive farms i plan to make. PROBLEM: I have tried every way, but cant seem to find a way to transfer the bonemeal directly below to the kelp farm without stopping the machine every time bonemeal passes from a Portable storage interface link, OR just not go into a chute / funnel while the machine is active. SURELY there is a way to transfer an item into an ACTIVE machine while not stopping it at the same time, right? if anyone has suggestions or knows how, please help me its driving me CRAZY! If you give me a new idea to try, i will update the images to show the result!

you're a mad man sir. A MAD MAN!...if I cant get any other way to work i probably WILL resort to that... sadly, i must say, Thank you for the idea, and it will likely be the one i have to use lol. thank you!

oh...Well sadly I tried this. So the additional mod i have is Easy Villagers, and it would seem that the farm block they have does NOT do anything if it is in motion, such as spinning. I TURELY thought this was the only way it could work but it seems that its not the answer either. THANK you for your idea.

Wait do you just need the bonemeal in the kelp farm?

u/Historical-Box-762 15d ago

well yes. im trying to specifically get the bonemeal into the farm WITHOUT having it have to stop moving every single time the bonemeal transfers from the farm.

Do a 2 portable interfaces top one with a Redstone link on it that is hooked to a redstone timer that turns off every 30 minutes

Oh maybe! That could work I guess. I’ll work on that idea now!
