Hello, So I started making a profit shop, I put the auto skelly grinder down and the bones seemed to go from chest to chest just fine.. But when I connected my shopsigns to the chests.. it seemed like the bones didnt go to the next chest.. Anyone know why and if they can help, bc I dont seem to be able to figure this out.. Thanks for the help in advance! :D
Hey, so as I understand it you are trying to use a hopper to pull items out of a buy sign chest into another? If this is the case, the problem is that you cant use hoppers to pull things out of chest shops and private chests as this would render them pretty useless.
One way you could do it is like this: Spoiler: Hopper Configuration This should allow the items to go into the chest, starting with the bottom one, and should work with shop signs added to each chest, since there's nothing flowing out of them, just into them. It also, for some reason, randomly fills items on the top chest as well, although that shouldn't affect much since it is still collecting them.
How it works is it fills up the bottom hoppers first, which are connected to the chests. Once the bottom hopper is full, the hopper on top of it will start filling up (and fill up the chest). It starts from the bottom up, until it's completely full and can't fill anymore. Once the bones are in a chest, they don't move. An item is inserted into any hopper, and it will move down in the hoppers first before it enters a chest. It stops moving down in the hoppers when it reaches the last hopper that has space.
Heya! If you want you can always /msg me, monnlin or Monnosk to show you our profit shop! Ours is basically like the pictures above! :) Dino <3
The way profitshops work is that the chest connected is allowed to get items in, but can't get items out using a hopper, so essentially bones get stuck at the 1st chest u use. Stacking hoppers vertically and connecting chest directly to each of them allows bones to enter and not have to exit the chestshop.
you can message me jazmiin or Arthur and well show you our chest set up or I can come take a look at it for you!
