One thing that seems to be a bit more tedious with a dedicated farmer/harvester on a server is the fruit press for berries/fruit. For distilling, you just make more distilleries, but for pressing, its a bit of manual work since you have to hold to twist the handle, so you can only really do one or two at a time. Its harder to really get this going when you have people bringing back tons of fruit and berries from adventuring in the spring.
One thing I was thinking of was creating a 2x2x1 'Grape Treading' bucket that people can put up to 160/320 berries in and have people jump to squash down, maybe even including a spigot to spit it out into a barrel/bucket.
The other alternative is making an automated fruit press that can be used alongside windmill power, something that can be toggled off and on easily and someone can just shove in some wet mash (32 berries IIRC) into without much thought.
I have been making small edits to mods and have been looking to getting into modding for this game specifically, so if anyone has any sources or pointers to some videos that can help out with this I would appreciate some help there.
Other than that, what are your thoughts on this?
