Auto-Sorter v2.0

Description

Welcome to my Auto-Sorter Version 2.0

This is a Massive undertaking by standard in the age of auto-sorters. But I believe you will be extremely pleased with it overall.

This version is not preset though I am working steadily to build a version which would have all the chest preset to the items you will use or theoretically be using. However for this version all the sorters are empty except the very first one which is set with 20 dirt so you will know how to arrange the hopper system for proper sorting. This has however been fully tested and works incredibly well.

*NOTE* you may depending on your spawn in have to rotate the to dropper on the first floor to be facing the top row hopper. This is because at random sometimes the spawn process rotates the dropper. Reason not truly understood but easily fixable.

I have placed signs explaining details about the system through out the facility to help you in using it more wisely. I have also created a small room in which are chest containing all the supplies in building this structure. These chest are prefilled to help the user in survival mod as well as ease of repair in creative mode as well.

I have designed this to spawn under ground while you are standing at ground level. However please note that it is very long and as a result it is best to spawn in an open area. With at least 135 blocks to your right able to be effected by the structure. Note the size is 140 long 20 wide and 29 deep. So it takes up a lot of room. Perhaps a test spawn would help in determining placement. I suggest WorldEdit. I also strongly urge you not to use the negative air option as this will mess up the spawn.

Note there is a lot of Redstone in this system so it may cause lag. However in test including a full capacity test no lag was experienced. But I want to warn in advance just in case.

This project was based off a design from RabidSmore who inspired me to take it to the next level. Which as you will see means a bunch of tweaking and changes all which have lead up to this one of the largest working auto-sorters I've ever seen.

I was aided in the playable testing of this system by SMAWarrior a long time friend. He has assisted me with final testing and resetting of the system. SMAWarrior will also be assisting with the next version of this system which will have all the chest preset with the 333 items sorting system in full working order. On that note I will give you just some fun facts on this system.

System Details:
333 chest sorting at incredible speed. This means the items can reach the last chest before you can.
An astounding 1200 plus pieces of Redstone Dust were required.
84000 blocks that's right that's how many blocks were copied during building.
It was build both in survival and creative modes and without the use of WorldEdit or MCEdit.
And it took over 2 hours to build the base design and another 2 to enclose it and finish it off.
Yes it was a lot of work

Okay with that said I will again note a ready to use version is underway as are several other builds from myself(EchoCallingEarth). And yes I will be having playability tested by SMAWarrior.

Finally feel free to use this design on your servers, personal worlds or even in YouTube videos. All I ask is credit be given to myself for the build, SMAWarrior for testing it and RabidSmore for inspiring me to take it to the next level.

Enjoy
