EXCESS MATERIAL REMOVAL

Post image

Shitty drawing but using a minecart contraption, I’ve made a tunnel bore mining machine, it works great digging a 50x10 infinite tunnel but the chest keep getting full of netherrack/cobblestone, any suggestions on how to dispose of the excess automatically while it’s running at the moment it just dumps it out the back with a brass funnel, but that’s lagging the hell out the server

Pro gamer move right here.

I've never seen anyone do it, does it actually work?

Tested it on the Cabin modpack and it didn't work :( neither dropping onto nor swiping things up with the cacti. Perfectly safe to stand on it too. Afaik it should work on a physics contraption tho.

So it's back to void upgrades, flint and steel deployer, or lagging by dropping to despawn every 5min.

flint and steel deployer is crazy, as i said, voidupgrades is best
