nah, we understand. We need QOL changes more than the new stuff. For example, back then, people used to make pistons detect block updates, but now we have observers. People did machines that detected dirt turning into grass just to know if its day or not, now we have daylight sensors (does anybody even use daylight sensors anymore?). We need to make redstone builds smaller, and easier, not add more problems to it. Also, mojang is slowly improving at redstone. Give them some time, and I bet we will get most of the things we want. (I would also appreciate some new commands, the /tick command is awesome, I hope they add some more)

Qasi connectivity was both the bane of every old school redstone contraptions and the secret sauce that made so many of them work. They remove the bug and find out it was actually useful so they add it back as a feature of something else, something smaller and less confusing, something shiny and new. They minimized 1*4 circuits into single blocks. Bud detectors became observers and the copper lamp is a t-flip flop next it will be a new compariter that is actually a one block directional and or nor gate so you don't have to work about the one tick delay, lighting updates, or quasi connectivity of redstone torches...

It's a lot easier to improve something that already exists than to invent something novel that is useful. I mean, there's evidence of that fact everywhere you look. Although sometimes you get something great

its just silly that they removed the bulb abilitys, WHY JUST WHY

one of my favorite redstone components is Scaffolding. i use it state change to transmit a signal vertically over 300 blocks up and its instant. totally op. i use it on my giant iron farm.

And it all works somehow

Dont forget random colored wool

Yay Les go

Ironically, the jukebox can already output a signal strength over 15 and we can read that. We already have examples of blocks with 100+ signal strength in overloaded shulkers (too many unstackable items), we just need them to give those signal strength's to music discs.

That's what happens when the code's bad! Though Java edition is obviously better, Bedrock, with Microsoft behind it, is the better programmed version and would be much more easily moddable if we weren't limited to the marketplace.

@@ccaagg It's more rigidly coded though. Java Edition is incredibly flexible and easy to modify, however Bedrock has various complications due to the nature of its loading environment and lighting engine. It's not easy to make a mod loader on Bedrock, especially as Java's system is much more complicated, allowing for a lot more creativity. This is also why Bedrock is so unstable - sure, the code is a lot faster, however most things are 'hard coded' by the nature of the limited processing power and storage of the mobile devices it was designed to run on. Java, on the other hand, had a lot of major changes performed to it over the years that made its code more modular as there's way more resources to spend on PCs. You can see this when editing .dat files or .json files when dealing with items, chunks, etc. You have a number of hyper-flexible fields that you can modify in many different ways, which mods use all the time to easily implement items and textures. Bedrock does not have this flexibility and instead has a bunch of really hacky entity-based solutions to do most activities, let alone the really poorly made shader code (well, it's not exactly 'poorly made' but it is definitely not intended to be changed or built upon) that is also really hard to modify. Anyways, the reason Mojang doesn't understand its own creation is not because the 'code is bad' - in fact it's actually a sign of really good game design when the players are given so much creativity that players are able to do things even the developers don't understand and the game still works as intended. This is called emergent gameplay or an emergent feature, and in a game made to be as flexible as Minecraft this is a normal occurrence. The solution to Mojang's problems would be to revert to becoming a more community-focused studio, however it physically cannot do that as Minecraft is the most popular game on the planet and is owned by Microsoft - it is no longer an indie studio. This is an issue that Mojang is going to continue to face until they take some sort of initiative in community outreach (and by 'community' I don't mean the PR youtube videos they post that provide pretty much nothing)

You removed the door mechanic...

So true ngl

@@Sylv1_Durif_ door mechanic?

@@suspecter200 You know how bud powering comes from the fact that mojang reused the door code for pistons, thus making the game think pistons are 2 blocks high without them actually being 2 blocks high?

Piston budding is the best and java Redstone is best

IMO minecraft is about using items beyond their limitations, and the devs themselves know it to some extent. Ever wonder why villager house roofs are called "stairs"?

@@EvanG529 Yes, that’s a good point! They didn’t make a new block specifically for roofs, and this inspires players to use their creativity as well. In a way, it is sort of like the versatility of lego blocks.

@@EvanG529That’s a great example actually

I only build legit redstone. glitches could change version to version, or even by using a different server like paper.

@@lorenzo42p So basically, the only legit redstone can be computational redstone. Or opening a door with a pressure plate.

Yeah but what is purples works for Disney 💀

Why is there only 4 comments on this after 2 months

the calibrated one works kinda like that but yeah

@@lazysloth08 No, it really doesn't. Each skulk-frequency is still triggered by multiple different sounds. That makes it not really any better than the normal one. Only actual upshot is that it resets faster, the cooldown is lower. That still doesn't make it viable.

@@joda7697 ok, get it thanks😄

@@lazysloth08 no problem! (genuinely, i love talking about redstone stuff)

Why not just make an item entity with no gravity?

@@hyper_lynx Thrown potions always face the player, versus item entities and frames which have a fixed orientation or animate. That unique rendering is why this "bug" was useful.

If i recall correctly, recently it was reintroduced as an actual feature with more uses (still command only)

​@@pipodrankjeyeah and they replaced it with a better more fleshed out feature. Like they are with redstone

We ain't complaining bout the jukebox, it's just funny that it's such an unexpected useful block like targets

@@CraftyMasterman Yeah, absolutely

Thats actually a cool idea

That would be AWESOME omg

It’d be kinda jarring to have a blue lamp emitting white light since colored lighting is not a thing yet in Minecraft.

What do you mean ? What is directional slab mechanic ?

@@themonsieurmonsieur7629acts as transparent block one way, and solid stair-way

They are talking about orientation-derived, half-block functionality

Exactly this video is criticizing something that is simply not an issue.

​@@Chorismos Is it a non-issue though? Most new redstone blocks aren't very useful as intended. Usually only by emergent features do they become useful

@@BryanLu0 and that is a problem because...? Like the orignal comment says, "There is no point in adding Redstone blocks with incredibly niche purposes. That would just bloat the game." It's completely fine for blocks to have Primary and Secondary purposes for different playstyles. Many blocks in the game already do (Redstone dot is used by builders for blood.) The Target Block and Skulk sensor were made for basic Mini-game creations (in Survival) with their secondary purpose being, useful for niche Redstone circuits. Admittedly the Target block does that better than Skulk, but that's because niether the community nor Mojang have been able to solve it's problems. For example both Mojang's and Purplers' solution for a Calibrated Skulk sensor requires you to use a look-up table not present anywhere in the game.

but community will call mojang lazy if they dont add new features

You say that as we get singular joke blocks like granite and copper that are basically just bloat and serve no purpose but decoration. While niche they add a lot of things for custom texture pack and build options. The same treatment should be given to redstone not redstone specifically being exempt.

So notch was the only one that had any idea?

@@Omega-AlexGt More like, he's the only one with developer knowledge of the majority of Redstone. The current devs could take the time to learn it, but none of them have that advantage except for the most recent components, which as discussed in this video, don't mesh well with the old ones

I lay be wrong but wasn't it Jeb that did all the redstone?

Jeb didn't start working on minecraft beta, which by that time Redstone in its simplest form existed. However, his first contribution for redstone was the repeater in B1.3.

Yeah I wan to know too

What video is that from or is this for this video specifically

Holy shit jkm

FRFRFR

An idea i have is the redstone transmitter and redstone receiver. 2 blocks that can be tuned with the power of redstone signal on one side and when it receives a signal from the front it searches inside an area of idk 64x64x64 blocks for a receiver with the same tuning that strongpower the adjacent blocks except 1 side (the tuning one). it's similar to the sculk but i think this should be more reliable and predictable. I'm not a redstone genius so please tell me if my idea is good or garbage.

​@@horos02 worth noting that a 64 block cube is an absolutely massive space to search. Specifically, the game would have to iterate over 262,144 blocks every time that thing is powered. Basically what you've just described is lag generator. Rig up 100 of those to observer clocks and you could probably crash any server. It also doesn't really feel very vanilla-ish, but that's subjective.

Are you like mad about nonexistent problems

First, get rid of redstone dust as a “block” (!) and replace it with red, green, blue, and white “wires” stored as *separate data within a chunk!* This way water won’t destroy them and the different colored wires can cross with no effects. Second, wires connect to/from blocks and redstone signal, now called volts, can _only_ travel via wires. This way you can make proper vertical wires without spamming redstone torches and removes the power level inversion shenanigans. This also *fixes the stupidity of redstone signal leaking into blocks around or below them.* Additionally, you only need 1 wire instead of N dust to join blocks. Third, provide proper 1 block *Boolean logic gates for ALL 16 permutations* of two Boolean inputs. This is the standard *Truth Table* which includes: * unary ops: T, F, Identity/Projection, NOT, * binary ops: AND, OR, XOR, NAND, NOR, XNOR, two Projection, two NOT, along with T, F, IF, THEN, and two remaining Implications, Fourth, add a proper observer/comparator/hopper block that has an inventory slot for the item to filter / look for. This way we have proper item sorted that work on all blocks/items and isn’t bulky. Fifth, add a custom timer blocks that lets you set the duration from 0 - 15 (inclusive). Timer blocks comes in varieties that operate at tick, second, minute, hour, and day granularity. Sixth, add a custom repeater with delay from 0 - 15 (inclusive) Seventh, hide wires unless you have wire cutters equipped. This keeps wiring “clean.” Eighth, add 2, 3, 4, piston extenders as a single block. Ninth, fix chests to be movable tiles. Tenth, provide an LCD block that takes an input 0..9 and displays a number. Eleventh, provide a way to DEBUG a circuit where you can single-step through time to inspect the state of the circuit. The general theme here is to get rid of bulky nature of redstone and replace them with the super compact design of full supported Boolean Logic. Unfortunately the current redstone system has too many bone headed bad designs that fixing them would require a complete rethink which will never happen. It will always be one patch job upon patch job. Java and Bedrock redstone diverging was HUGE mistake that only fractured the player base instead of unifying it as anyone who has tried to build redstone for both knows all too painfully well. Redstone has SO much potential being wasted because no one wants to give it the proper TLC and importance it deserves.

@@MichaelPohoreski literally all of that except the chest thing are horrible ideas that would make redstone completely bland, boring, and uninteresting to use. if you want boolean logic just wire up a circuit IRL

@@none-ro9dz /whoosh

@@MichaelPohoreski i can't tell whether you just don't know what whoosh means or if you're pretending it was a joke like some sort of schrödinger's dumbass

@@MichaelPohoreski you forgot an r. Also you can't "whoosh" someone if you didn't even make a joke. Satire needs to be clearly satirical, otherwise it's not satire.

It's not that hard though... Take Glazed Terracotta, a block that doesn't stick but can be pushed... suddenly really useful in redstone. All they really need to do is have a list of properties transparent/opaque, pushable/immobable, redirects redstone, triggers an update when powered.... and then fill in some of the gaps when they make new blocks

A multi-block piston would affect multiple blocks at once, so they’ll never add it.

​​@@infiniteplanes5775 Slime blocks already do that. So does water, for that matter

​@@hyper_lynx Each face affects one block at a time, and the more "complex" stuff simply is a Chain of singular changes. Not sure what you mean for Water, unless you mean "it can spread out and affect more than one at a time". Which isnt really, again, the "one at a time" deal that was meant.

​@@infiniteplanes5775 The "one block at a time" rule only applies for the player directly. Blocks are exempt.

​@@KidPrarchord95 You might be right

Music is all in the description

But they're way too slow, short range, and finnicky with being triggered by everything. Yeah the tuned ones may help a bit, but there's still tons of things in each skulk-frequency, that could trigger a circuit on accident.

@@joda7697 Regardless of speed it allows extremely compact long range signals that can be extremely useful for certain builds. You can also use wool to make it so that it has to also hear the specific sound from a certain direction to help iron out the finnickeyness. You can also make sure to use a specific sound that's rarer than the others so that there's a far lower chance of it accidentally activating. Plus it could be good for traps using specific frequencies like if you're being chased down a hallway and you go to the other side and equip armor so that it activates the calibrated sculk sensor and drops the players into lava by removing the floor underneath them. It can also just be a general cool thing for doors and other contraptions where you have to unequip your armor (like tipping your hat) and it opening the door. That's less useful overall but in terms of adventure maps and narrative pieces I think the calibrated sculk sensor will be invaluable and make a lot of technical stuff far easier and allow people to create things that you previously would've needed commands for. As I said I don't know a ton about redstone so it's overall effect on the entirety of redstone is something I'm not certain of and something we'll have to wait and see, but in terms of its applications towards adventures maps I think it's invaluable. Also the short range can be fixed using the amethyst blocks to transmit them to one another, and even then having it only activate close up is good because that would keep it from activating because of some sound interaction a couple chunks away.
