    Brief Description:When I harvest the wheat farm, IE flip the lever to turn off the redstone lamps, the game lags for about 5-10sec, then crashes.

    Instructions: In this event, it occurred on the 3rd floor of my wheat farm.

    Standing 2 blocks from the lever, direction across from it on the other side of the chest, flip the switch.

    Server lags then crashes.

    server back up, my exact position is -9049,77,-9100 . That indicates which floor of the farm I harvested as well.

    How many times did you recreate this bug?: Twice now, you checked it out after the first event yesterday.

    Result: server crash

    Expected Result: wheat harvest $$$$$$

    Evidence: many pee'd off people that got DCed :p

    should also mention when it came back on it left some random rows of crops unharvested. This farm has worked before, I did design it properly :p so the rows should have popped, Im guessing something weird with the server crash caused it to not process these specific rows correctly.

    In any case, I have left it alone, did not reharvest anything, its all exactly as it was when I was able to sign back on incase that gives any useful info.



    I didn't make any attempts to "fix" it since yesterday. I have some ideas, split the room in half to reduce the amount of wheat harvesting on a single lever pull, add delays on the repeaters. I haven't done any of them only because I think I was supposed to try and recreate the result...


    Also may be worth noting that I remember yesterday I added pass through in the floor to get around quicker, seems insignificant, but perhaps that hole in the ceiling at (-9048,-9097) is doing something weird... I think I had 2 or 3 harvests without issue before adding that hole, but I have no way of knowing if there is any relation. seems insignificant, but its the only change I made.

    preciate the info, Ill have to dismantle it. I really didn't expect my farm to be that special lol. I thought there were many redstone lamp farms out there, surely some much bigger than 80x80, but perhaps not?
