Layouts

Ideal Layout

[edit | edit source]

The following is the standard ideal layout as shown in-game in the minion's menu.

Air (minion).pngAir (minion).pngAir (minion).pngAir (minion).pngAir (minion).png
Air (minion).pngAir (minion).pngAir (minion).pngAir (minion).pngAir (minion).png

Air (minion).pngAir (minion).pngAir (minion).pngAir (minion).pngAir (minion).png
Air (minion).pngAir (minion).pngAir (minion).pngAir (minion).pngAir (minion).png

Due to Gravel Gravel being affected by gravity, there needs to be a block under the air to keep the gravel in reach.

Special Layouts

[edit | edit source]

A Gravel Minion can be made almost twice as fast by letting the gravel fall on a non-full block (like Sign Signs or Carpet Carpet) above a Hopper Hopper. The non-full block breaks the falling gravel and hoppers underneath can collect it. This will cause the minion to skip the mining action, but that does make the minion 10% slower[Confirm], so it is almost twice as fast.

Special layouts only work when the Private Island is loaded.
