Rannuncarpus on a Redstone Dirt Detector block puts saplings on the other detector
Detector shuts off after the tree breaks and the machine is reset
This farm uses the Redstone Dirt Detector to trigger the gearshift and makes use of the Redstone Dirt Blocks underground to carry the signal
Here is what happens when the tree grows and the signal lights up
Redstone Dirt block carries signal from the Hovering Hourglass into the redstone torch once per minute to pickup saplings and place them near the rannuncarpus
Here is the "wiring". Note the two blocks distance to deal with quasi-connectivity (this is a vanilla bug that is also a feature)
Redstone Dirt blocks as "wiring", triggers pulse mana spreader with a Bore Warp lens to chop the tree
Using just the Powered Redstone Block and a repeater. Because it is strongly powered, you can detect when the tree grows and trigger the gearshift
Description
1.18.1 version now available in beta form
This mod adds 4 main blocks:
- Redstone DIrt
- Powered Redstone DIrt
- Redstone Dirt Detector
- Redstone Grass
There are also path/farmland variants of the above blocks
Now the question is why would you want these? Well take a look at some things you can build with them
Redstone Dirt:
Carries a redstone signal just like redstone dust
Can be right-clicked with a hoe to convert into Redstone Farmland
Powered Redstone Dirt:
Constantly outputs a strong redstone signal (like a Redstone Block combined with a Redstone Torch, but plantable)
Can be right-clicked with a hoe to convert into Powered Redstone Farmland
note: this signal is strong, like putting a repeater into a block. This is useful for detecting tree growth with repeaters, but watch out for quasi-connectivity
Redstone Dirt Detector:
When a sapling is planted on top, it outputs a redstone signal with power = 1 + growth stage (ex: for vanilla saplings, this is power levels 1 - 2 for stages 0 - 1)
When the sapling grows, it outputs a strong redstone signal with power = 15
note: this signal is strong, like putting a repeater into a block. This is useful for detecting tree growth with repeaters, but watch out for quasi-connectivity
Can be right-clicked with a hoe to convert into Redstone Farmland Detector
When a crop is planted on top, it outputs a redstone signal with power = 1 + growth stage (ex: for wheat this is power levels 1 - 8 for stages 0 - 7)
When a crop is fully grown, it outputs a redstone signal with power = 15
Redstone Grass (beta):
(note: randomTickSpeed increased to 200 for this video)
Same as Redstone Dirt, but the grass variant
Obtain by spreading normal Minecraft Grass or Redstone Grass to an adjacent Redstone Dirt Block (random ticks)
Can be picked up with Silk Touch
Can be right-clicked with a shovel to convert into a Redstone Grass Path block or with a hoe to convert into Redstone Farmland
I am not happy with the uniformity in the grass, so I will likely be updating the textures once I am sure everything else works okay
1.17+ versions only:
support in the config for automatic sapling placing blocks like this: https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/planting-dirt-for-saplings
