The Defender's Wiki - Mechanisms

Mechanisms are used to automate some repetetive tasks, so we can defend more efficiently

Types of mechanisms -

  1. Armour dispensary #1 Dino_the_dreamo's 6x5x5 dispensary design

    Popularized/invented by: Dino_the_dreamo ❤️
    Average time required to build: 8-10 minutes (includes gathering materials)
    Resources needed: 4x stone pressure plate, 4x dispenser, 10x hoppers, 8x chest, some building blocks (I use glass for demostration purposes), 8x glass, 5x ladder, 2x sign

  2. Armour dispensary #2 1-block armour dispensary immortalized on Brottweiler's channel. It's actually 5x5x4, but I call it 1-block, because the dispensers are focused the same direction, so you don't have to walk on four pressure plates like in the previous design

    Popularized/invented by: Brottweiler ❤️
    Average time required to build: Not measured (includes gathering materials)
    Resources needed: 1x stone pressure plate, 4x dispenser, 4x hoppers, 8x chest, some building blocks (I use glass for demostration purposes), 4x ladder, 4x sign

  3. Iron blocks transporter This mechanism is used to transport blocks, so we can mine them easier and faster if the iron supply is in an inconvenient place

    Popularized/invented by: Cheetqh ❤️
    Average time required to build: Not measured (includes gathering materials)
    Resources needed: Some building blocks, pistons, sticky pistons, repeaters, redstone torches, redstone dust

    In the last two screenshots, glass represents where the iron blocks should spawn

  4. Elevator An elevator! Brings you to the sky platform in the blink of an eye!

    I won't record my own tutorial or describe this too much, because it is quite niche and likely to be destroyed very fast in an actual match, so I don't think many people are going to use it. Luckily, I got some screenshots from a chill match, where no one decided to destroy it
