Create fully customizable hoppers that automatically collect and filter items within a chunk.
winnie-chunk-collector-thumb.jpg

Take your server automation to the next level. 🚀

This plugin adds powerful chunk-based hoppers that automatically collect items across an entire chunk, perfect for OP Prison, Skyblock, and SMP servers looking to boost efficiency and reduce lag.

No more manual collection. No more messy systems.


JAVA 17 REQUIRED OR HIGHER

💡 Why servers use this:​

  • 💰 Increase player progression speed with automated collection
  • ⚡ Reduce lag by minimizing dropped items
  • 🧠 Simplify farm setups with smart filtering
  • 🔧 Fully customizable for any server economy or gameplay

✅ What makes this different?​

Unlike basic hoppers, this system gives you full control over how items are collected, filtered, and managed, making it ideal for high-performance and large-scale servers.

# Interval (in seconds) between each hopper processing cycle.

# WARNING: Lower values make hoppers more responsive but can increase server load, especially with many hoppers.
hopper-check-interval: 5

#   When enabled (true), items dropped by players, mob deaths, or block breaking (e.g., mining)
