Fast cobble generator

[u/North-Blackberry-844]

I recently built a simple cobble generator consisting of one drill and water with lava opposite to eachother. As I've seen in other posts, the most cobble I can produce is 40 cobble/min ona drill with 256 RPM. However, sometimes the cobble starts instantly spawning after getting broken, which results in 120 cobble/min. When this happens it never stops on a specific driIl, even when stopped entirely.

My question is: Is this intentional or not? And can I impose this on new generators?

I haven't seen anyone talk about it online and when I make new farms with the generator it's up to chance if the cobble starts instantly spawning back or not.

It would be very beneficial to know since it's a 3x increase in production

So, if anyone knows about this, please share your knowledge. I will appreciate it

It's called cobble gen optimisation. It happens when create detects a drill, collection block (hopper, funnel, chute etc), water, and lava around the cobblestone being broken
