copper golems try to path find to copper chests through all blocks which essentially breaks any use they have as a storage system upgrade
the use of a copper golem sorting system with only one copper chest within the 32x32x8 block radius is nearly none outside of a popup chest monster sorter
as a copper golem voter please fix this because I don't want to have these lil guys in my base if they cant be utilized in a way that showcases them properly
one suggestion is to simply take the pathfinding from the villager going to a workstation code and slap it in the copper golem I am unsure if it works that way though
my second suggestion is to add a timer so that the copper golems still path find to the chests but they stop looking after say seven seconds of not moving closer to the chest then “wander” a bit and look in other chests again this means they can still be left in the area they need to be in without too much trouble
Environment
in my testing (seen below) the golems never stop looking at a chest they lock onto
this makes any design of copper golem sorter break incredibly fast if it includes any more than one copper chest and respectively an absolute maximum of 24 copper golems
