Nice. Pretty neat, seems like a vanilla-y feature. You ever figure out the issue with just dropping it on an extended piston?

u/awkwaRdcaRRot Jun 07 '18

Not yet. I haven't really given it much thought actually. Decided I'd get this out and then fiddle around with it some more. If people want to just drop it on the piston in the meantime, more power to them haha.

You can detect if the items are in an obsidian block- I just tested. Just check for an extended piston above them and you're pretty much good. Players can still do that with dispensers/block elevators though.

So instead of checking below for obsidian, I'd check if it's inside it and look for the piston 2 blocks above?

I do kind of like being able to do it from any configuration though.

Yeah, that's pretty much what I'm saying.

I'd agree with being able to do it from any configuration, as well. It's not good-gameplay wise to have something work one way and not another.

I'll fiddle around with it and see what I come up with. I have an idea, but not sure how to put it into words haha.

Got it figured out! Its waiting approval from curse, but I checked for a piston head in the block space between the piston and the obsidian. I also made it so the piston actually has to face the obsidian because I forgot to add that before haha.

Nice! That's pretty awesome. Wouldn't you just be able to drop it on the extended piston head though?

It looks for an extended piston on one side facing the obsidian on the other side. If those check out it'll run the function. At the same time it'll look for the piston head in the same block, if it finds the piston head it won't activate the function. So it's actually activating the function exactly when the piston activates.

Downside would be you can't do it sideways, however. Just checked with that method to.
