    Hi everyone,
    I have a 200X200 cocoa farm with jungle logs placed every 4 blocks, leaving 3 spaces between the logs. (2 rows for cocoa beans and the middle row to walk between them. The problem I have is every 16th row looses all its cocoa beans. In a 200X200 farm that is a lot of rows. The problem I understand is every 16 blocks is a new chunk, so the 17th block will not recognise that the cocoa beans are attached to the 16th block and therefore drops them.

    Is there anything that can be done other than redoing the whole farm?
    Is this a minecraft problem or a EEC problem?

    Thanks for any help you can give.

    It's a minecraft problem.

    the idea is the chunks load separately, so the cocoa loads as not attached to anything before the logs load.

    The only way to fix it is, yep, redo the farm :( Basically, you'll have to move everything 1 block over.

    Thanks #gstoner3,
    I was afraid of that, maybe I should relocate the entire town 1 block over. LOL
