    So I was wondering if it would work to have a hopper chain between 2 islands to move items from one island to the other if the hoppers were connected? EDIT would this work with droplets or dispensers shooting items into hoppers on another island? Can water flow from 1 island to another?

    No. In between the two boundaries the hoppers would be facing eachother.

    you would have to /jump or /warp to each island and drop the items into a hopper connecting to a chest; so no it would not work because of the boundary's.

    Fantasy: I get an alt account and get a island next to mine and place hoppers and dispensers from the other island which would be only automatic farms to hoppers on my main island xD

    That would make no sense. Just add your alt to your island and you to your alt's island.

    To get an entire island for farming only and a main island that would not need any farms and I would never have to log into my alt account or go to my other island

    I could set a warp for you so you could simply type in something and be teleported there.

    I meant this is a fantasy I don't have an alt account. But the whole point was to get free resources to my main island without having to go anywhere or do anything. Supreme laziness also I am Admin

    I think the area between two islands is too large for this to be possible. Maybe if you were able to push hoppers with pistons it would have been possible.

    Still, if you were able to push hoppers with pistons, why go through all the trouble of that when there are easier alternatives

    If the dropper or dispenser were higher enough than the hopper on the other side like 30+ blocks would it overcome the gap?

    Mabe, I have been testing with my alts between the spacing of each island's boundary and it is normally 5-20 blocks apart from each island, However, If it is just my eyes, some island's are a small tiny bit closer than other's.

    How about since you are admin, just fly over to the other island like a boss. If you're not admin, use hacks and fly over like a boss (just don't get kicked). Then have a hopper on the other island and drop it in.

    That 'Fly over like a boss' with hacks will get you kicked, Unless the client can by-pass the server, Good idea though 'If your admin fly over like a boss'

    I can fly using hack for only a few moments until I get kicked but it I am in the air for more than 6 seconds then I get kicked,
