  3. I would like to build a more efficient squid farm for carthaga. The design can be any size, but 13x13 is reccomended. I will need several red stone torches, about a stack of powered rails, a few regular rails, a hopper minecart, carpet, and glass. I will also need a building material, like cobblestone or dirt. Blue wool would be nice for aesthetic reasons, but I just need a couple stacks of any block. EDIT: I'll need signs too, but I know that there's loads of those in storage.

  5. TOP TIP'S TO BE PROTECTED FROM GRIEFER'S



    • Make sure you lock all your chest's


    • If you don't care about the door use blocks the the griefer has to break the block to get in ( that would help staff )


    • Try to not to use rich block's for your house/apartment


    • Don't build your house far from Carthaga Portal room


    • Always tell Kaizimir /Toby or SEPTHEKID If you don't feel safe to the person that lives next to you

  6. I was AFK at it for 30 minutes, and it only yielded 8 ink sacs. Is it above Y=45?

  7. Yes it is Y: 46 - Y: 62
    It doesn't matter if you are gonna build a new squid farm, it is just a small part of the squid farm. Like I have said to you earlier before. To make the farm works more efficiency, the water around the farm needs to be dry out in the range around 128x128 blocks away. That's all the part of the farm needs to be done next, which is the hard part :p

    I really have planned this to make the farm where is not many rivers or water source around, but I couldn't find that perfect area where is the closest to Carthaga.

  8. In my experience you need to afk there for quite some time before it really starts spawning more squids. When we built the farm there were people out there for days, at that time we got a stack of ink in about an hour, which was pretty decent.

    Yes, we chose this place because it is right in the middle of the desert and we haven't had to fill up too many rivers. There might be only a very little portion of water left in the 128 radius or 128x128 area (?) around the farm.

  9. I was under the impression that squid farms have terrible spawn rates in the desert and it's better to build one in a grass biome and fill in all the other water sources. Of course my info may be out dated lol

  10. Let me recorrect this...
    All the water area must be cleared around the farm in every each direction North, East, West, South at 128 blocks away
    so it's gonna be kinda like a square area without water not a circle area.

  11. The farm can be on any biomes on the overworld, as long as no other water source around than the farm itself

  13. Well I'm gonna get me a DC of sand, and help Suri dry out some ponds, rivers, and a very large chunk of ocean. Actually, let's both get 2 DCs. not that hard right? :p I might even put the dry riverbeds to some use...
