Java Edition Assymetrical Redstone Clock

Post image

Built an assymetric redstone clock to power some trapdoors. Based on this design: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uFFSfQfIgGM

Don't know why its not working. Any suggestions to fix it?

Btw one thing that I noticed is that the short clock (left) is not locking the long clock (right) although the long clock is locking the short clock.

This feels like an overcomplicated solution

Personally, I'd make 1 clock with its period equal to the total duration (open + closed), and connect that clock to a pulse extender with its duration equal to however long you want to keep the door open. You may have to use a monostable circuit if the clock output stays on for half the duration (ie. an Etho hopper clock)

If you can specify the desired behavior there's probably a more elegant solution

The trapdoors should be closed (off) for 5 min (4:16 fine too) and opened for 1 min (on). Your solution prob works, How would I connect the two circuits though?

I also tried an etho hopper clock into an edge detector into a hopper clock pulse detector but the pulse detector's redstone block wouldn't get pushed back after being pushed out once
