HartBots

🤖 HartBots — Autonomous Workers for Minecraft Bedrock

Build smarter. Mine deeper. Farm automatically. Let your bots handle the work.

HartBots brings autonomous robotic workers to Minecraft Bedrock Edition, helping you automate mining, farming, lumber harvesting, combat protection, and resource transportation — without complicated redstone machinery.

Deploy specialized bots, configure their jobs through intuitive in-game menus, and let them work while you focus on building, exploring, and expanding your world.

Designed for survival gameplay and multiplayer Bedrock Dedicated Servers, HartBots combines intelligent automation, configurable behavior, persistent job management, and built-in safeguards for established worlds.

🤖 Meet the HartBots

⛏️ Overworld Miner — Intelligent Mining & Vein Following

Put your mining operation on autopilot with systematic excavation and intelligent ore collection.

• Configure mining shafts with adjustable spacing and depth.
• Automatic ore vein following: Detect and pursue connected ore deposits beyond the main excavation path.
• Configurable vein limits: Control how far miners follow connected ore deposits, up to 512 blocks per vein.
• Enable or disable adjacent ore harvesting.
• Optionally scan one block below your configured mining depth.
• Automatically collect mined resources and return for unloading.
• Preserve mining progress across server restarts.

Whether you're gathering everyday building materials or searching for valuable ores, the Overworld Miner helps turn repetitive underground excavation into a managed automation operation.

🔥 Nether Miner — Selective Vein Mining

Bring automated mining to the Nether with specialized excavation and resource targeting.

• Create systematic Nether strip mines with configurable spacing and depth.
• Selective vein following: Choose which Nether resources your miner will pursue.
  

  Independently enable or disable vein following for:

  • Ancient Debris
  • Nether Quartz
  • Nether Gold
• Configure connected vein limits, up to 512 blocks.
• Enable or disable adjacent resource harvesting.
• Optionally scan one block below the final mining depth.
• Automatically collect resources and return for unloading.

The Nether Miner is designed for the unique environment of the Nether, with specialized mining rules and safeguards to help protect nearby infrastructure.

🌱 Farmer — Automated Crop Management

Spend less time harvesting and more time building.

• Automatically harvest supported crops.
• Replant crops to maintain production.
• Collect harvested resources.
• Deliver produce to your configured unloading system.
• Continue working through repeated harvesting cycles.

From small survival gardens to larger agricultural operations, the Farmer helps keep your food and material production moving.

🪓 Lumber Bot — Automated Wood Harvesting

Keep your wood supplies stocked without constantly chopping trees.

• Locate and harvest supported trees.
• Collect logs and other supported drops.
• Return harvested materials for unloading.
• Reduce repetitive manual lumber gathering.

Use Lumber Bots to support construction projects, crafting operations, and long-term resource production.

🎯 Attack Bot — Automated Area Defense

Add robotic protection to your automated operations.

• Deploy autonomous combat bots.
• Configure their behavior through the in-game interface.
• Engage supported hostile targets.
• Help defend work areas and nearby infrastructure.

Attack Bots complement your resource-gathering workers by providing automated protection where it's needed.

📦 Hart Depot — Expandable Resource Storage

HartBots includes a dedicated Depot system for collecting and managing resources delivered by your automated workers.

Instead of manually emptying every bot, configure your automation network to transport collected resources directly to your storage infrastructure.

Stackable, expandable storage: Each additional Hart Depot block increases the shared storage capacity by 200,000 items, allowing your storage system to grow alongside your automation network.

Whether you're running a small farm or an extensive mining operation, Hart Depots provide centralized unloading, scalable buffering, and reliable resource handling.

🛡️ Built-In Mining Safeguards

Powerful automation shouldn't mean putting your existing builds at unnecessary risk.

HartBots includes protective excavation rules designed to reduce accidental damage to bases, storage systems, and underground infrastructure.

Overworld Miner protections:

• Preserves supported storage blocks, including chests, barrels, and hoppers.
• Skips designated redstone components, rails, ladders, and utility blocks.
• Protects torches and other designated path markers.
• Avoids mining bedrock and liquids as ordinary terrain.
• Tracks skipped protected blocks in mining statistics.

Nether Miner protections:

• Restricts excavation to an approved list of natural Nether terrain and resources.
• Preserves blocks outside its permitted mining list.
• Performs additional neighboring-block checks around certain sensitive infrastructure.
• Includes controlled lava-handling behavior during mining.

These safeguards are especially useful when deploying miners in established survival worlds with existing buildings and underground systems.

Important: HartBots uses block-based protection rules rather than automatic detection of entire player-built structures. Ordinary mineable terrain used in construction may still be excavated. Review your mining area and maintain world backups before starting large operations.

⚙️ Features at a Glance

• Expandable Depot storage: Increase shared capacity by 200,000 items for each additional Depot block.
• Automated collection and unloading: Bots deliver resources to your configured Depot system.
• Persistent job management: Designed to preserve bot state and resume supported jobs following server restarts.
• Multiplayer ownership controls: Help keep players' bots and configuration access separate.
• Performance-conscious automation: Designed for sustained operation with multiple active workers.
• Custom robotic models: Unique colors, textures, and role identifiers for each bot.
• Survival-oriented gameplay: Automate repetitive tasks while maintaining the need to build and manage your operations.

🏗️ Built for Survival

HartBots is designed to complement Minecraft's normal survival progression rather than replace it.

Start with a small farm or mining operation, deploy your first workers, and expand your automation network as your world develops.

Create underground mining networks, keep farms productive, harvest forests, defend your infrastructure, and centralize your collected resources with expandable Depot storage.

Whether you're managing a small survival base or a large multiplayer world, HartBots gives you more ways to automate repetitive work and spend more time enjoying Minecraft.
