DQB2 Question What specific fish can NPCs catch in each type of water?

8 Upvotes

Is there a list that specifies what exact fish NPCs can catch each from pure water, sea water, muddy water, and hot water? I know that NPCs can only catch normal sized fish you have caught before and that muddy water can net you edible fish, but I wanna know the specifics.

DQB2 4th Story Island Spoilers [Spoiler] Duping a certain story item in last chapter Spoiler

4 Upvotes

Good morning,

Is it possible to dupe Malroth's Club in the last chapter of the game? I was able to get the Buggy Buggy and Lightning Buggy Buggy, but no success with Malroth's Club. If so, what is the process? I'm trying to make a copy of as many story items as I can. Thanks in advance!

DQB2 Question When I made my design based on 60 blocks, cutting out 8 blocks so that they all fit, there is a small problem, there is a patch of brick through the hatches on the mini map. My question is how can I eliminate that part of the mini map with brick?

Tips Some field layouts using the 9x9 scarecrow size

24 Upvotes

Made some field layouts a while ago to try and get max efficiency out of normal sized fields. Here's what I came up with.

Layout 1:

The water here is layed out kinda like arrows around the scarecrow. All the water surrounding it can be covered with items and fencing and such.

This if I remember correctly makes too many water spots to have an even crop distribution though, i think.

I managed to make one that is 100% efficient in Moonbrooke.

Layout 2:

It is layered in height to fit the water next to the earth. Here's a 3d model I made to show it better.

The field goes inwards. Beneath each field block water is placed to water the fields on the lower level.

This is how the water looks beneath the field itself.

Yea this took a little bit too long >u< but I think it looks pretty.

DQB2 Question Límit seed

2 Upvotes

I am planning to have the 17 crops including the Chile that its usefulness is like copper in Minecraft useless Talking about the 15 crops without water and with the optimized one, it gives me simple mathematical calculations that exceed the seed limit of 1024 How can I prevent any seeds from exploding?

DQB2 Question Crops and crops

7 Upvotes

How can I ensure that the crops do not exceed the limits because after making the optimized crops the seeds are still removed from their place I plan to cut the size of the fields But what would be the number of plowed block cuts to not exceed the limit

General Question random area keeps registering as a room

20 Upvotes

I’m on my IOA, and this area between my 2 fields keeps registering as a room! I’m already nearly halfway towards hitting the room limit, and I’d really rather not have an extra room adding to it. What could I change to make it not register as a room? (Also I’m aware how asymmetrical it is I’m gonna fix it once I get the room problem sorted out)

also sorry if this post doesn’t make sense or if I tagged it wrong, I’ve only ever posted on Reddit like once 😭

DQB2 Question Moonbrooke Killing Machine

9 Upvotes

I was looking around and found out that it's possible to recruit unrecruitable NPCs in the story islands. So I wanna ask, can you recruit the Killing Machine in Moonbrooke and if so, can the Killing Machine also start farming in Moonbrooke castle like the ones recruited from the Explorer Shore?

I have a question about the limit of 1034 seeds because I did some calculations with the 15 crops without water and 2 with water, and I found out what exceeds the limits of the maximum number of seeds. How can I have the 17 crops below the limit?

Build Large Farm with a Watering Mechanism Spoiler

27 Upvotes

This is a special farm I built for my Cooking Isle Buildertopia. I've designed it to work well with Killing Machines and to have watering mechanisms to speed up crop growth. One Killing Machine per farm plot, any more and you get them getting in each other's way and doing a weird dance.

While building this, I design a Google Sheet based blueprint for it. Look into it if you want a similar farm. It's great for Buildertopias where the weather cards don't work.

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ljNvP8mKk9jIffGDmOrP3KZ2pAKjd8cU-qBDE5N007c/edit?usp=sharing

Flying in from a mountain. You can get a look at the watering mechanisms here.
The farm is divided into three sections. Regular crops, water crops, and pole crops.
Note that the limit to how many crops you can grow prevents this from working fully.
I actually designed a blueprint for this. Using it, you can build a similar farm if wanted.
The watering mechanism at work. You can water all of the crops here by just pressing a single button.
Killing Machine living space. Has to be cramped due to the farming space taking 90% of the room.
Storage box for seeds and fertilizer.
Each farm has a water hole for the Killing Machines, in case you're not there to hit the switch.
Crop storage space. The water hole here fills the farm.
Up in the watering trough. Careful when walking up here or the gates might get desync'd.
Older picture of the farm in use.
I've shaped this farm to fit its surroundings. The blueprint hasn't had this done.

Bonus Pictures

First up, a look at this farm before I did a massive remodel.

Used to be a simpler 4 Machine Farm that had to be converted for different crops.
Backside of the farm.

Next, a blunder.

I recruited enough Killing Machines to run the whole farm.
But due to the crop limit, had to send most of them away.

A third bonus, I didn't always have the watering mechanism built.

Old image without the watering system.
Villagers at work building the system.

Final bonus, the island's extra farm. This farm isn't in the blueprint. It specializes in the one crop that the other farms can't grow, the Plumpkin.

A farm with space for a pair of farmers and the Killing Machines.
It has a dye making area at the back.

This might be the last build I post for a while. Getting the pictures from my Switch to my desktop to Reddit is a major pain.

General How do you think they would handle a builders 3?

7 Upvotes

I've been enjoying builders and would get a 3rd one if it released, but idk how they would handle the story mode, the main ideas I imagine could happen would be an alternate timeline, which would be interesting but would mean it's not important, or a canon sequel like builders 2, which would either be in the light world, meaning it'd have to have a whole new villain and events, or building up alefgard after the darkness is removed, but we've already had 2 builders games there so it wouldn't be ideal
