Minecraft configurable redstone timer using dispenser: 5 minutes to 48 hours

I made this video as a response to a post on MCF here: http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/905914-a-challenge-for-more-canny-minecra...

I realise the idea isn't particularly original but I made this from scratch. The main difference between this and the "traditional" 5 minute timer is that it eliminates the power glitch at each 5 minute interval, keeping the output in either the high or low state for the entire duration of the timer. There may be better ways of doing the same thing I don't know. I thought it was quite neat.

@321quickscope what?

[Xalizar]

How do u enable the two side buttons in the macro? When I install the lastest version of the mod, I only have three buttons (right, middle, left)

[therealeq2]

@Xalizar Wow, that must have been on screen for like less than a second, well spotted! That feature is in version 0.8 which I plan to release next week. Hooking the buttons required a lot of testing as I've had to write a new input module specifically to handle reading the buttons through jinput, this has required a lot of testing and I don't like to release unstable mods.

@therealeq2 understandable :) thx for the response and do u think that support for tilt buttons will be added as well (in further development)?

[therealeq2]

@Xalizar That's actually possible although not something I'd considered. LWJGL doesn't get all the mouse events for custom buttons hence the new module to read input events via jinput. I was planning to extend the jinput module to handle more abstract user-defined mappings in the future so if tilt buttons can be read in this way then yes I will support them.

@therealeq2 A guy who also used this in his map

@therealeq2 antvenom found a way to do this too

This would be great in conjunction with a light sensor setup. You then have all doors above the surface close/lock when nighttime comes, To prevent any unwanted visitors in your house.
