チュートリアル/回り続けるプール

回り続けるプールは AFK poolとしても知られています。水に入ったプレイヤーまたはMobが、プールの中を無限に回れるようにします。また、AFKはマルチプレイヤーがサーバーにキックオフされるのを避けるために使われます。

使用法

Endless circling pools, or AFK pools, are primarily used on multiplayer servers. Most servers prevent players from being idle for too long by kicking them off the server after 15 minutes or more. For that reason, some players make "AFK Pools" to prevent being kicked off by the system.

This is why many players build an endless circling pool when they have to be away from the computer. An endless circling pool automatically moves the player continuously. However, it can malfunction once in a while, causing the player to stop moving. Because of this, make sure to check your computer every 15 minutes (or however long the player is allowed to be idle before they get kicked off on that specific server). Also, note that some servers ban the usage of endless circling pools.

使用上の注意

回り続けるプールを使用する際には考慮すべきいくつかの重要な事項があります。

• 水が鳴る音がプレーヤーの邪魔になることがあるので、ノイズが気になる場合は、コンピューターの音量を小さくしてください。
• Sometimes you may stop moving when in an AFK pool, and must manually move the player to start again. Using a second sign as the central block instead of a solid one can prevent this, and makes the pool more reliable.
• Using an endless circling pool may be against the rules of your server, particularly if it has an auto rank system to give benefits for playing longer, or is often near the player cap. So, make sure to check the rules before constructing one.
• Using this pool causes your hunger bar to go down, which can kill you in hard difficulty. Riding a boat in a pool wide enough for it does not deplete hunger. Otherwise, you keep food on hand for when you return, or make an automatic food farm and keep the use key pressed.
• The pool should be encased in some sort of building, because otherwise you could be attacked by monsters and die.
• Keep in mind that, if you are in a multiplayer server, other players might troll you when you are AFK.

材料

When you are ready to build an endless circling pool, first make sure you have all of the materials. Here is a list of materials you'll need to build an endless circling pool. All of these are fairly easy to acquire.

• Building blocks (such as stone bricks)
• A sign
• A water bucket
• A stair or slab (a slab requires less materials to craft, so it is recommended)

建設

Once you've gathered all the materials to make an endless circling pool, it is time to start building. The following grids show you how to construct an endless circling pool:

Note: Darker blocks are 2 blocks high.

Layer 1

Layer 2

Step by step

1. Place a block down. This is for the water to circle around.
2. Place blocks 1 block high around the center block but two blocks away from it, so that there is 1 block of space in between the center block and the outer blocks, including for the corners. However, you don't have to connect the corners for the blocks.
3. Place a slab or stair directly diagonally up-left from the center block.
4. For the block behind the slab/stair you just placed, place another block, so that it is two blocks high. Then, place one block to the right of that part to make 2 blocks in the barrier 2 blocks high.
5. Place a sign on the front side of the block you just placed. The layout of the pool is now done.
6. Put the water on the side of the block to the left of the one that now holds the sign. It should flow all the way around the pool. You are done.

Construction notes

• You can replace the stone bricks shown in the grids above with any solid block, such as cobblestone or wood planks.
• The slab can be of any type. It can be any block one automatically steps up onto, that water cannot wash away, meaning that stairs are another option. Place the slab or stair under the water source that is 2 blocks high.
• The water source block (marked with an S) flows down, and around to under the sign.
• After the water is flowing correctly, the sign can usually be removed once everything is in place.
• 1.13 has changed the water flow mechanics, such that the end of the water has less current. This can cause you to get stuck on the central block. Replace it with a sign instead to solve this issue.

Activation

To make an endless circling pool work, all you have to do is jump into the water at any place in the flow. The water should constantly carry the player using the pool all the way around.
