[QUOTE=JurajIsNotPirat;30911293]I always imagined the perfect redstone system as some sort of virtual grid where you could just connect anything you want. All you'd need would be transmiter block which looks basically like a chest with a map.

That wouldn't work with more complex contraptions which do stuff on all 3 axis.

I have flatgrass, if that works for you.

What I think would be a lot more realistic and possibly more useful is pre-made blocks for AND, OR, NAND, NOR, XOR, XNOR and inverter gates, RS/D-latches, D/T/JK-flip-flops and similar basic gates that only take up a single block.
[QUOTE=Zar;30910220]Notch needs to make redstone more simple.... its hard to hide the redstone and stuff. I made a very simple little door in the ground and i had to make holes in my house :c[/QUOTE]
Redstone is extremely simple. You should try real life electronics if you don't believe me. It is, however, not at all convenient, which is where your problem is.
[QUOTE=Jallen;30911346]That wouldn't work with more complex contraptions which do stuff on all 3 axis.[/QUOTE]
You could scroll through height levels using that + / - button. Not sure how would it draw lines that intersect through multiple levels though.

Just open up one of your maps in MCEdit and terraform a 500x500 square in whatever material you'd like. It takes about 45 seconds and you're done.

I've actually wondered about that a bit. How similar is redstone to real electronics? I know there are a few similarities, but I can't remember any of them right now.

Fucking this. If Notch ever implements capacitance, noise and cross-talk to make it more realistic I will drive over to Sweden and get locked up for life for the horrendous things I'd do to him.

Yeah, that'd be great. The only reason I said sandstone is cause that what most people seemed to be using in their videos.

Eh, I don't have MCEdit, and I can't really be bothered getting it and working out how to make a massive flat area.

It's like the (extremely) simplified digital part of electronics without any shred of the electrical part.
It does share the similarity with microelectronics design that it's ridiculously clumsy, unintuitive and unforgiving though.
But yeah, [i]real[/i] transistor layouts are a bit more complicated:

I hope the duplication glitch for items stays there, it'd be a cool feature but maybe make it so items like gold blocks and such can't be reproduced but items like stone and such can

I keep the original map, and play around on a copy of it, so that if I ever want to start over, I still have the original.

Yeah I have no clue what I'm looking at, but that might be because I don't know what any of it means. It looks somewhat interesting, though.

It would be cool if it could be a server option, or something. Notch [B]has[/B] to know there are unsrs servers out there, and it can prove to be an actual feature if the server style allows it.
I'm trying to figure out how to make an elevator or extended staircase with pistons.
The idea is, I've figured out that you can stack sticky pistons, but it only works if they extend bottom-to-top, and retract top to bottom. Otherwise, the pistons aren't brought back down to their original state.
Ideally, I'd have an elevator consisting of these that extended in a sequence. Timed correctly with repeaters, they can all extend to full height, but on deactivation, they retract in the same order, and this leaves the pistons floating at their highest points and not compacting back down.
I can sequentially negate the wire with another series of pistons blocking the wire, but I notice a problem in that in placing redstone wire on the higher levels (so the pistons would activate as they raised) the second level would end up activating the third piston as well as the second. I need at the very least to limit that...

I made two basic elevators, unfortuantely they only go one way. I'm going to try and make one which does both but i'm not sure where to start.

Decided to make a little crusher thing to humiliate and kill mobs, the mobs come from my two level 54x54 ish mob farm just above it.
Currently upgrading it with a glass observation window and a loot collection system.

It's like electronics without the electricity which makes it a billion times easier. As an electronics student, I find redstone easier then actual electronics though :v:

Oh god that creeper was staring at you like "why decyg why"
Ahoy, i'm back again, i upgraded it with an opening floor doodah to let drop items fall through and get transported to the collection area, i also show what the mob farm looks like from the outside, it's quite small yet yields quite a good amount of mobs.
[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NE7V2UgOoDs[/media]
Also, the shaft leading down to the crusher is a 2x2x5 shaft and spiders always seem to get stuck at the top of it, anyone know how to get rid of spiders but keep the loot and other mobs intact?

Theres a mod for that, I think its called integrated redstone.

Here is my very first contraption I did with redstone! A couple of things, I cant get the middle 2 blocks to push out, I don't think there is enough room to add another piston (If you think so I would gladly love your help). Another thing is that you can see all the redstone, I don't really know how to hide it all without breaking the circuits.

There's probably enough room, but the wiring would be an absolute ungodly mess.

What's funny is that I've gotten that as a bug before, re-logged, and I was just fine. Maybe the mod should look into that a little more.
