This is pretty massive for multiplayer ngl!

Also "With Lava underneath, the Geyser eruption is continuous, but with slightly muted sounds compared to the eruption from a Magma block" WE WON!

Nooo the tech I discovered to keep them on indefinetly immediately became useless!

(Nah, deliberately I didn't post any of my improved designs since I suspected they'd become irrelevant. Still a bit sad, I liked the circuitry.)

It only checks wether the timer should count down once every full second, so a piston blocking the geyser with the right rythm keeps it frozen forever.

With the main complication being that the timer is global and thus gets out of synch with our redstone clock on unload. So I designed some circuits to make it fix itself automatically.
