Talk:Heart Statue

I'm not sure what the problem is but me and a friend rigged up a healing station in my world last night. It worked just fine, better than I expected actually. Today I went back and no matter how many times I trigger it, move it, rewire it or even change what is triggering it (using a switch instead of a pressure plate) it won't dispense a heart. My only guess is that because it was used in multiplayer it now won't work in single for some reason? Or maybe, for whatever reason, a statue might not work if the player who "owns" it isn't there? Either way it seems like a bug.

Heart statue won't dispense a heart if there are already a certain number of hearts in the world. This includes hearts dropped by enemies in addition to ones made by the statue. Or at least that is what I've seen. --GauHelldragon 18:26, 13 December 2011 (UTC)

The article doesn't state where you can find these statues. I assume they're found in caves like most other statues, but it'd be nice if the article reflected this. I don't know if this is true, but could someone who knows how they spawn add this? --216.232.137.221 06:23, 15 December 2011 (UTC)

I don't know in the slightest if this might be helpful, but I started 'farming' statues by creating small worlds and then exploring the Dungeon and the Underground Jungle for a bit - I found two Heart Statues in the Underground Jungle, half submerged in slightly small water ponds (next to a Jungle Spore). I thought someone might find this interesting. Good luck, everybody! --82.83.93.80 17:57, 30 December 2011 (UTC)

Six at once

I copied the design given, and it will only give three hearts at once (even at start-up when all six run at once with no other hearts around). Furthermore there's a pattern where one side of timers will switch off, then the next tick they'll all be on (and no hearts), the next tick the other side will switch off (and three hearts), and so forth.

The design given AFAIK is a fail, since the timer will also give current back to the source (which goes to another timer and toggle the other timer). and three hearts at once is the highest limit from my experience (or maybe im bad at designing statue-farm, i don't know xD ).

Maybe if you try it with only three timers. Remove the three from the right or the left and maybe it'll work (needs testing, can't do it myself ATM). Personally I use pressure plates so that hearts only appear when I walk near the statue and the drop limit does not become an issue as quickly then. ----Fegazeus (talk) 08:33, 3 February 2014 (UTC)
