\n# Purpose
\nIron farms are a common early game build, but wrangling villagers is annoying, and some players prefer not continuously instilling fear in villagers. This pack allows for creating golems that lay ‘eggs’ of iron.<\/p>\n
# Directions for Use
\n1. Install this datapack.
\n2. Build a structure like an iron golem, replacing the iron blocks with hoppers.
\n3. Ensure the carved pumpkin is the last block placed.<\/p>\n
# Notes
\nThe ‘eggs’ are dropped every 35 seconds (the spawn frequency of a single cell fear-based iron farm).<\/p>\n
# Known Issues
\n– Golems can currently be stacked in a small space and unbalance iron substantially.
\n– **☑** (1.21.1) ~~Trident marker is atrocious.~~ Hopper golems are now marked by a hopper over their head. An amusing side effect of the method of attaching the hopper is that killing a hopper golem may spawn a chicken.
