Performance-Optimized Farm Dimensions

Hello everyone,

I’ve been thinking for a long time about creating a mod to save performance when running farms.

The idea is to have a special block that creates a new dimension where you can build your farm. Instead of having the farm run continuously and calculate all the processes live, the mod records how much the farm produces over a set period of time — for example, one hour. When you leave that dimension, you can take an item representing the farm’s output and place it into another block in the main world, which then generates resources like iron based on the recorded production rate.

For example, if the farm produces 60 iron per hour, the output block would provide 1 iron per minute. This way, the farm itself doesn’t have to run constantly — the mod calculates the production only once during the recorded period, saving a lot of processing power.

What are you thinking about the idea?
