Backplague Posted July 25, 2012 Posted July 25, 2012 The midbase of Plague Corporation presents you the Cake-A-Tron 9001. It makes cake. Infinite amounts of it. One cake can be made every 10-15 seconds, depends on the supply storage. This time the whole thing is made in SMP. Tiny bits of creative had to be used for filming of the video. This the production facility. Built in about 2-3 hours, designing took 2-3 hours. Designed in creative, rebuilt in survival. 1. Get milk from cows. 2. Get cake. 3. Replenish wheat, sugar and egg. 4. ???? 5. PROFIT. As for how the machine works, here is a simple step-by-step. 1. 3 milk is taken from cows and transferred to chest. 2. Cake is made. 3. Restore buckets to cow milkers. 4. 3 wheat are taken and transferred to chest. 5. 2 sugar are taken and transferred to chest. 6. 1 egg is taken and transferred to chest. 7. Done. The automated wheat farm is a block breaker and two deployers. Block breaker takes wheat, deployer #1 plants seeds and deployer #2 grows seeds with bonemeal. There are three of these "modules". Sugar is simply two sugar canes with block breakers to take the sugar cane and turn it into sugar at an automatic crafting table. And last, there is a 3x3 chicken pen with 4 chickens in it and a transposer at the middle to collect eggs. Here is our production team. Going left to right, there are: nuppih; contributed to building the machine, designing the machine and filming video. Backplague; designed the machine, built the machine and made the video. storm7; contributed to building the machine and filming the video. Here is a simple showcase video, made with the style of the Plague Corporation showcase video. As always, all feedback and commenting is appreciated. cake Quote
flamingsalad Posted July 25, 2012 Posted July 25, 2012 Nice one! Any plans for automated farms for the other ingredients? I'm halfway through designing my cake factory right now and I haven't really thought about how to build an automated wheat farm. Cake is always good. Yum yum. Quote
Backplague Posted July 25, 2012 Author Posted July 25, 2012 Everything here is automated. All you have to do is to press a button, wait 10 seconds and get cake. The automated wheat farm is a block breaker and two deployers. Block breaker takes wheat, deployer #1 plants seeds and deployer #2 grows seeds with bonemeal. There are three of these "modules". Sugar is simply two sugar canes with block breakers to take the sugar cane and turn it into sugar at an automatic crafting table. And last, there is a 3x3 chicken pen with 4 chickens in it and a transposer at the middle to collect eggs. Quote
flamingsalad Posted July 25, 2012 Posted July 25, 2012 So everything is an infinite resource except for bone meal? Neat. Do the 4 chickens lay eggs fast enough to keep up with the system? Quote
Backplague Posted July 25, 2012 Author Posted July 25, 2012 We make bonemeal with a condenser right now. The chickens are quite slow on laying eggs, but it was one of the first things we built in there so the double chest if pretty full of eggs. Quote
nuppih Posted August 7, 2012 Posted August 7, 2012 We did not use creative at all. We used Swiftwolf's rending gale to fly. Quote
Xylord Posted August 7, 2012 Posted August 7, 2012 Too bad there wasn't some skeleton dungeon in the neighborhood This is great, but I wonder, does the sugarcane grow fast enough? Or do you use the plant ring on a pedestal? Quote

Xylord Posted August 7, 2012 Posted August 7, 2012 Backplague said (in my thread) that he uses the Harvest Goddess Band on a pedestal. Harvest Goddess Band, I always forget the name... Okay, thanks for the answer! Quote
