MineCraft Tutorials: Automatic Water Elevator
MineCraft Tutorial #1 [Waterfall Elevator]
A few of you asked for some tutorials yesterday so I made one for the water elevator I had shown in HU5. I'm still new to editing videos so sorry if the text isn't up to your standards or moves to fast, pause it!
Some points I may not have been clear on:
- The dimensions in the video are correct, even though I messed my example up, it is in fact 7x5.
- I use 3 wide elevators because occasionally you will knock the boat and it might go a little sideways, 3 width is usually the best balance between size and function, you can go as wide as you like.
- You CANNOT go large than 7 length with this build (if you can manage the currents better to make it work, go ahead).
- I cannot stress the need for the two back walls (the reservoir and counter flow sides), the boat will hit the edges of the bottom pool and get stuck if you do not have these walls above the counter flow and below the reservoir.
- The counter flow has to be one block up the wall for the currents to work properly. Didn't mention that in the video.
If you are unsure about anything else, leave a comment.
