It's amazing how this game can plug in to other things. Motherboard design for instance. If you are working with limited space you have to figure out how to get signals where you want them with out unwanted interaction (cross talk).
Hi, I made a lock similar to this. Is there a reason you used XOR gates? Because I used and gates and it still works, it just seems as if and gates are smaller? :S
@Rulictar Making this lock got me really interested in electronic circuits and digital logic design. I now work at NASA designing embedded systems for nanosatellites :-) That's why.
Very cool. I am creating a similar circuit. The only thing I am having trouble with is the sequencing. Example: If my password was "1234" you could do "2431" and still get in. How can I make sure that the password is in the correct order? Thanks :)
I just like to make programmable lever locks because T flip flops are too big. Also, can the door be opened right now by placing a redstone torch next to it?
Umm... Couldn't you just connect all the wrong buttons to the reset switch, I am a redstone newb and had no idea what you said and this video is like 5 months old.
You dont need Xor's at all....just 3 rsnors, with the right button going to the "on" and the wrong buttons witha bout 6-7 delay going to the Reset rsnor input
To make an incorrect button reset it, you could link every single incorrect button to the original RS Latch, and add an RS Latch branching off from the XNOR's, linking back to the original Latch. Somewhere along those lines, you could make it work.
I'm trying to build one of these myself right now. I've got a theory for how it should work, but I'm having problems wiring it up because of how compact I'm wanting the button panel to be :( Instead of going through a mess of logic gates and RS NOR latches, what I'm doing is using a 4-bit memory device to store a value corresponding to the button pressed, then check that number against the current location in the sequence. If it's correct, it advances, otherwise it resets.
Thats really awesome but, any player would just start digging thru all of that and get in. hopefuly this wonderful combination lock will be useful in the future :) Also maybe notch will code something to make this easier, maybe you could actually craft a combination lock :) Great Work nontheless i would never be able to do this logic xD
Maybe would it be posible to like move all the underground so that the lock it's self is not a building? if That would happen I would be amazed and try to use one.
@pitfallingpat to do that, just take the bug building and run the input down and the output up. minecraftwiki(dot)net has designs for it if you look up a few wiring things.
when you design a circuit, do you work the sequnce out on paper first then assemble the circuit in Miinecraft?
I am automation engineer and this inspires me to look at what can be done with this type of circuits. I found the wiki page and it is very informative.
@glpelletier When I did the counter circuit for the "three try" lock I had to write that down to get everything figured out. Other than that I just tackle it step by step in my head and lay it down piece by piece.
@glpelletier This one I just kind of had the general idea in my head and started working on it until I got it right. Surprisingly I just kind of assembled the whole thing and it worked the first try.
dude this kicks ass... i never really got the drawings on the minecraft wiki, you obviously do, you sold make some tutorials for each of these things you're using, like XNOR latches...
i really havent progressed much beyond making integrated circuits of AND gates, and some really weird switch that doesnt really work
Great job. Have you updated it?

@greendinorawr XOR gates allow it to be programmable, and also allow for incorrect inputs to be registered as a reset.

I'm sorry, but what's the point of making a keypad lock in minecraft if it's jsut like making a keypad lock in real life, it's soooo confusing! AHHH

Have the incorrect buttons reset the input.
That way it fools button spammers. :P

Could you make a 4 digit version? oh and could you also post the connections like in a real circuit? Thanks for the great video :)

Very nice. :) Much respect for people actually know how to do this stuff. Me + logic = WTF. For the most part...
Your words are encouraging, though. Hopefully I'll get it. xD
