The reason it works is because if repeaters are being powered directly to a block, it will also power the block below it. Since the extended piston part is below it, the piston remains pushed out. When you activate the other button the power is cut and the piston can retract. This won't work with downward facing pistons because the repeater won't power the block above the block being directly powered.
This is not a glitch as the repeater is powering the block and that block is powering the piston, it is simular to powering a block with a repeater and then putting redstone wiring on the other side.
Believe it or not there's a mod called little blocks that will allow you to shrink that down to fit in only one block this works for all red stone creations (unless there's a piston as doors and pistons don't work when shrunk)
Ok im not good at redstone so don't be mad... You could also use à lever right o_o but it looks cool so forget what i said :p I'm working on a song in Minecraft but i forgot how much noteblocks u need 0_0 it's almost Impossible to make it in my house.
I quite like it: I will consider using it in my CPUs but wondering: have you experienced any of the location bugs associated with pistons? not the one that allows your design to work but sometimes, for what i believe to be no reason pistons are activated? You see I used pistons in a system I developed where I can have ordered dual outputs from one input eg first program to A, then B and experienced this bug. Does it occur in this system?
@oliverissocool1 don't use the input blocks,put a button in the back of the torch block and use only 1 block for the red input,also put the butons in the back of the block,not the side because it would be 2 wide if you put it in the side
@oliverissocool1 Way smaller justr two stone in a line and a redstone torch on each side then pistons under the torch and a block on one of the pistons then your done
@oliverissocool1 You should do a video of making a whole bunch of stuff using the wireless redstone mod. I love it and it makes things way more compact. Just for looks since most people don't have that mod.
This is super cool, but for those of us who play Vanilla could you do a video that shows what you could use this for in a practical application? Thanks!
@oliverissocool1 haha, true. I mean a looser definition of "practical" though. Something like an elaborate hidden door, a railway station/system, a complex elevator, etc... It's really unbelievably cool, I just don't ever see myself trying to build a RNG or a bowling game in my castle XD Thanks again!
ive made a flip flop with pistons, but then i found a quirk where the input was buggy so i only used it as a testing tool.... was a good design and similair to what you did
It's 3 by 4 because the redstone on the orange part turns it into a BUD switch. Just because it's an output doesn't mean it's not a piece of the circuit.
@megadudeley the output can go 5 ways from the block that gets powered once the piston raises. Every direction being to the right, back, front, bottom or from the top of the block, changes the dimensions.
The RS-Nor latch by itself is 3x3 buddy. Even when activated.
it is based on a bug in the game with piston getting power from 2 blocks away. and i am curios if where is a block update next to it if it will stay up
@oliverissocool1 My channel, my newest vid builds the "3 or more chance" system you needed a while ago, it also shows the RS-NOR @SubShadow123 was talking about
