Ever since I saw Ako use this ritual from Blood Magic, I've been itching to automate it. I suppose I could use turtles, but that's both boring and a lot of code I don't know. Thoughts on how to automate this wonderful ritual?

It honestly depends on how you're going to be using the ritual. If you port the stones out of the impact zone, then all you need to automate is collect and the swapping. I don't know if full automation is possible do to needing to activate the ritual, but I could always be wrong.

(which one was this again? The meteor summoning one?)
Yes, indeed it is.

I could use an autonomous activator with a activation crystal in it perhaps to auto trigger it. Only problem s the massive amount of LP it takes. So I'd have to put it on a good sized timer to give my network time to recover.

The problem with that though is the fact that there's a good chance the impact will destroy that setup, unless everything gets teleposed away from the impact site. At which point you'll have to come up with some sort of timer setup to pull the ritual, clean up the meteor, and then put the ritual back. It's most likely possible, it'll just be a pain.

LP isn't as much of an issue if you are dedicated to getting good LP output. Witches in a well of suffering powering a damn good altar using mainly runes of sacrifice with a large capacity orb is insanely effective.

Thats what I was planning on doing for my LP gathering. But it still needs time to recharge no matter what method I use to get the LP.

But it would be an amazing build. Much more fun then a quarry.

I absolutely agree, just a bit of a pain to figure out. Also, I think running several Wells of Suffering would help cut down on the recharge time, and I hate to say it, but witches are the way to go for each of those in this case.

A solid well of suffering setup on a T5 altar can generate about 800-1000 LP per second. That supports one ritual every 16-21 minutes or so, disregarding the cost of teleposing the ritual stones away from the impact site.

I was actually considering adding another pair of T5 altars to my blood magic array for this very purpose. But then I discovered the bedrock dimension and got kind of distracted.
