Managing Your Minions
Accessing Minion Settings
You can click on any minion to open its settings menu. This menu allows you to:
Equip tools
Link chests for remote item deposits
Upgrade the minion's level
Equipping Tools
To equip a tool, open the minion's settings, then click the tool in your inventory.
Tool Durability: Minions will use tool durability but will stop using the tool once it reaches 1 durability. The tool will not break but will need to be replaced.
Enchantments: Most vanilla enchantments will pass on to minions, although some specific enchantments may not be compatible.
Upgrading Minions
Minions can be leveled up after completing a certain number of tasks.
Cost: Leveling up a minion requires an investment of money.
Benefits of Upgrading:
Increases the minion's reach distance.
Enhances the minion's work speed.
Upgrade costs increase with each level, with a maximum level cap at 10.
Rotation and Appearance
You can rotate minions to face a different direction. However, due to a visual glitch, they may appear to face the wrong direction, but their functionality remains unaffected.
Important Notes
Minion Limits: Each player is allowed one minion. This limit can be increased to two minions with the Sultan rankshop perk.
Player Online Requirement: The minion's owner must be online for the minion to work. Additionally, the chunks must be loaded; minions will not load chunks themselves.
Tool Replacement: Minions will last forever, but tools will need to be replaced when they reach 1 durability to ensure continuous operation.
