Why are you interested in joining this server?:
I would like to learn how to build my redstone contraptions, which happen to fail. I also fail to see what causes these problems. I am trying to make stuff for my upcoming MC server, Universe. I can offer ideas for building redstone clocks, And even things like what certain redstone items do, as in redstone comparators. The redstone manual has a ton of different things I can choose from to build. One thing others cannot offer that I can is most of my time. I have nothing else to do most of the time, so I thought learning redstone would be a good option.
Current Redstone knowledge:
The redstone handbook for 2018 gives a lot of useful info, from redstone clocks and stuff about repeaters and comparators. For example, repeaters amplify signals, and when put together they can make locks. They also can ensure a signal moves only one way through a circuit. They also can delay ticks from one tick to four! Redstone comparators can sustain a signal flowing through it, and output a signal of the same strength. The redstone comparator can compare 2 different signals coming through as well. They also have a subtraction function, which puts the rear input minus the side input and puts a signal out of the strength that it would equal after subtracting. For example, the rear input is at 16, and the side input is at 12. The redstone comparator then outputs a signal of 4. The redstone repeater, lastly, can detect the fullness of an object, such as a chest.
Past Redstone Experience:
I have created a Redstone Lighthouse, and 2 different types of clocks. The first type is a torch clock, and it is created with only torches and redstone dust. The clock has the torches alternate. I used that in the Redstone Lighthouse to power it. I also created a piston clock. This one had 3 redstone dust and a repeater heading into each piston. When a block was placed, the signal would go through to the piston the block was put on, and push it to the next, then activating the next piston, pushing it to the next and then after the next one, it was pushed to the final one, which then pushed it back into the first one. This was an interesting loop I made and I wasn't sure at first whether it would cause lag or not.
About how often do you play Minecraft?:
6-10 hours per day
Anything else you'd like to mention? (Optional):
If this application makes it through, I thank you all for helping me with this, I look forward for getting help with some redstone contraptions. In return, I will make sure to help you all however I can. Thank you so much for this great opportunity. I will see you on the server!
Application status:
Approved
What kind of creations would you like to build on this server?:
I would like to build a Combination lock and a Platform Elevator, along with an Armor Swapper and an Elytra Launcher. I was thinking about doing everything this redstone book has to offer. The book even has a Pistion Squisher, that one sounds the most interesting of all the creations in the book!
