Heart Statue

The Heart Statue is a Mechanism, and one of 43 Statues. It drops a Heart when activated using Wire. It has a cooldown time of ten seconds between activations, though is capable of producing up to 6 hearts per activation if 6 separate wire connections trigger it simultaneously. Heart Statues can be found in the cavern layer.

The statue will not spawn a heart if there are 10 or more hearts anywhere in the world, 6 or more hearts within 800 pixels (100 blocks), or 3 or more hearts within 300 pixels (36 blocks).

Tips

 * The spawning of Hearts can be abused to create a farm for infinite health in an Arena. A partial workaround for the heart proximity limitations is to place the statues high on narrow ledges, allowing some or all of the hearts to drop. They need to be over 36 blocks above the point where the hearts will land.
