Redstone Bits

The Redstone Bits mod expands redstone capabilities in Minecraft by adding a range of useful devices and mechanisms for creating complex automated systems.

Main Components

The Placer functions similarly to a dispenser but with a key difference - it places blocks from its inventory. When receiving a redstone signal, the device randomly selects a block from available ones and places it directly in front of itself.

The Breaker is designed for automatic block breaking. When activated by a signal, it begins breaking the block located opposite it. A tool can be placed in its inventory to speed up the process - the breaking speed will correspond to the characteristics of the installed tool. Work progress is displayed in the device interface and can be measured with a comparator. The process can be interrupted by sending another signal.

The Checker operates on the observer principle but with extended capabilities. If block samples are placed in its inventory, the device will output a signal when it detects a match with the block in front. The output signal strength depends on the position of the corresponding block in the inventory.

The Counter changes the signal level depending on the number of received pulses. Each new signal increases the output power by one unit, reaching a maximum of 15 units, after which the count resets to zero. Right-click switches to countdown mode.

The Adder works as an advanced counter - it adds not one unit but the strength of the incoming signal to the current value. For example, when receiving a signal with strength 3, the device will output 3, and the next pulse with strength 5 will increase the output to 8. Subtraction mode is also supported.

The Resistor reduces the power of the signal passing through it. By default, it halves the signal strength, but right-clicks switch to division by 3 or 1.5 modes.

The Inverter converts the input signal to the opposite value: maximum power (15) becomes zero, medium values are inverted proportionally, and no signal becomes maximum power. An additional mode works as a one-way transmitter without changes.

The Rotator changes block orientation when receiving a signal. Switches between clockwise and counterclockwise rotation. A comparator allows determining the current position of the target block.

Additional Elements

Copper Buttons maintain pressed state for different durations depending on oxidation level, similar to copper blocks. Waxing fixes the current oxidation state.

Medium Weighted Pressure Plates occupy an intermediate position between light and heavy analogs, with oxidation level affecting sensitivity. Also support waxing.

Analog Redstone Lamps change brightness according to the strength of the received signal.

Redstone Displays visually show the numerical value of signal power.

Redstone Glass - a unique material, opaque by default but becoming transparent when activated by a signal. The feature is that it transmits the signal in all directions to adjacent glass blocks, and a comparator allows reading the current level, making it a universal conductor.

Combining these devices with basic Minecraft mechanisms opens endless possibilities for automation and creating complex technical constructions.
