Chunk Hoppers.... HUH! Good God, y'all... What is it good for?
So I am trying to figure out what makes chunk hoppers so special. I've played on servers where there were Crop Hoppers - hoppers that automatically harvest crops in the chunk as soon as they fully mature. These were useful for fully automating farms without any redstone or farmer villagers.
But I don't yet see what makes Chunk Hoppers worth the expense. I figure you can use them when you feed spawners into an automatic grinder to pick up the items, but you can do that pretty easily with some flowing water and a regular hopper. What am I missing?
