The Mod adds devices to output or measure redstone power in different style variants.
The complete documentation, feature details, credits, and community references is in proper format on the github project page here.
Brief
-
Switches
- Buttons ("pulse switches")
- Levers ("bi-stable switches")
- Normal pressure plates ("contact switches")
- Shock sensitive pressure plates ("contact switches", detect when something/one falls on it)
- Entity detectors (players, villages, animals, mobs, etc)
- Block detectors (category based, e.g. "solid", "ore", "wood", "sapling", "farmland", "water" (includes ice), "liquid", etc)
- Day timers (06:00 to 24:00)
- Interval timers (tick based timers)
- Light sensors ("auto switch" category)
- Rain sensors ("auto switch" category)
- Lightning sensors ("auto switch" category)
- Switch-Link relays (optimised for wireless transmission)
- Switch-Link receivers (optimised for wireless transmission)
- Knock sensors (seismic detection of click or breaking an adjacent block)
- Trapdoor switches (emit a signal and open)
-
Gauges
- Analog / digital (show redstone power 0 to 15)
- LEDs and semaphores ("indicators", show on/off)
- Alarm lamps (also on/off)
- Alarm sirens and bells ("sound indicators")
- Sensitive glass (glass that emits light or changes color)
-
Style variants ("series") are e.g. industrial, retro industrial, rustic, old fancy, glass, etc. For a pack you can configure exactly which series you like to include and exclude (makes no sense to have futuristic glass in a mystic medieval world, so only the rustic series is used).
-
Special features
- All switches can be configured to weak/strong and inverted/not inverted with a redstone torch.
- Most of the switches can be wirelessly linked with Ender Pearls.
- Pulse duration of buttons is configurable with a Redstone dust stack.
- Some switches and gauges can be colored with dye.
- Some plates can react or ignore players, mobs, villagers, animals, items, etc.

Bug reports: Yes, please let me know. Drop a mail or better open an issue for the repository.
This isn't your fault at all but I keep misreading the file name as rsausages
In reply to Austin05003: I recommend "Merguez" - tasty stuff after 50min above open fire ;)
Very classy mod! Good work!
In reply to ProsperCraft: Hey Goshen, thanks man! Also thanks for having the mod in your 1.14 testing loop. I am really happy that more eyes are having a look at bugs and usability in the mod. Cheers -
ok so with the tool tips is their an option to have them in seconds and explained simply an example the Automatic Timers have an insane BLOCK of text it's a Novel of useless info when what is needed to know is this.
A.) Blue letters set state on
B.)Yellow set state off
C.) Green Ramp? What is this it is not explained at all it just says ramp is ramp what?
D.) Red is signal strength I understand this.
Now heres the system I'm trying to set up I'm using Immersive engineering, Iron chests, Pixelmon mods in this machine to make a metal press that Sends out ingots one every 4 seconds to be divided by a belt splitter then 2 presses stamp the plates with out a whole lot of floating metal waiting to be pressed causing lag & risking despawning.
What I get is the Extracting belt ignores the signal and just spews it all out as one big lump that goes & waits at one press.
Also using 1.12.2 version because pixelmon so if any info is on 1.13 or later please understand that info is useless if my issue is fixed in those versions and updating is not an option without pixelmon and the other 40 mods in the pack thank you in advance.
So can anyone explain how this thing works? which numbers need to be what Blue higher than yellow? yellow higher than Blue? what
In reply to torkkar: In reply to torkkar: Hi, to answer your question:
(1) Place the timer on the conveyor (or e.g. on a solid block underneath - looks better, I use steel blocks, HV-coils, or similar).
(2) Set the on-time to 5s by clicking the blue up-button.
(3) Set the off-time to 0.5s by clicking the yellow down-button.
(3) Activate the timer by clicking the "1/0" button (or somewhere in the middle of the timer).
I do not like to make a book manual for such a small mod, therefore some shift-ctrl helps may be a bit "novely". It's a trade-off between text size and direct access to the help without needing to have a book at hand all the time. Cheers -
Very cool mod! It goes really well with IE machines and various redstone contraptions. It's really well made too!
In reply to LOLeq21: Thanks man - glad you like it.
This is amazing. Also thanks for updating to 1.14 so fast
In reply to Lothrazar: Hi Sam, thanks ( dito for cyclic ;) )
This looks fantastic! Adding to my pack today.
In reply to ProsperCraft: You again ;-). Very cool. Some small aspects of the mod are not ported yet - issues with proper gauge color tinting, and no ore dict available yet. So, at least temporarily I'll have to use static tags until then. So in the next time I'll push an update ;)
are there coming updates?
In reply to erland_yt_studios: Hi, yes, I am currently fixing 3rd/1st person views of the switches, then port to 1.14, then config extension, and there are ... let's see ... 6 ideas for new blocks (partially only designs like switches for magical context, and two new switch types).
Timing for the new features is not sure yet, because I am also porting another mod to 1.14.
Hello
Thank you for this nice mod. I have a question about the possibilities.
- Is there a way to get different strength redstone signal regarding the entities detected ? For example a detector detected 2 entities (small redstone signal) and when its detects 10 entities (strong redstone signal) ?
- Do you think it could be possible to set a (configurable) custom command as output instead of a redstone signal ? For example when a detector detects entities it runs a commands (modded one, because command block are already able to do vanilla commands).
Thank you for your time!
Ben
In reply to Finelarme9: Hi, sorry about the late response. To answer briefly:
a) I had linear redstone amplification in the first approach, but dropped it because in the end people wanted that the device makes a "boolean" decision and emits power or not, so that contraptions should be easier. In cases where a linear gain was needed (for CC interfaces etc) entity detectors of other mods were used. I put a possible switch config on my list to remember the feature request.
b) To be honest I have no idea yet how command emitting works and what it needs.
It might take a while until I can tackle this - limited "hobbyist time frame" and currently sitting on the Engineer's Decor mod ;)
In reply to wilechaote:
Ok thank you for your answers/infos :). Your mod is awesome, anyway!
so just to ask if I place an auto switch on the side of my Tinkers smeltery near a Faucet it will allows that to drain into the hoppered Basin I have right?
In reply to Tarlocx: Hi. I do not know the exact setup that you have. I
think you might use a block next to the smeltery, because the switch will
only put redstone strong power (to the back) where you place it. It does
not provide redstone power to left, right, top or bottom, only back.
Let's say you have the faucet on the smeltery wall and the switch on the
smeltery wall on the right of the faucet.
- That block on the back of the switch is the smeltery block behind it.
- Because the switch outputs strong power to it, this smeltery block will
provide weak power to all blocks around it, also the to the left
smeltery block where the faucet is attached to.
- But there it stops. Because this block is only weak and not strong powered
it will not provide power to the faucet.
So I think if the smeltery has not a special handling for redstone you
need an alternative:
- For example you can put a Sintered Brick (was that the name of the smeltery
blocks?) directly next to the faucet, and put the timer there. Then the
switch will strong power that block and the block will weak power the faucet.
So that may work - but it does not look that good ;(
Hello wilechaote, thank you for this wonderful and useful mod, was really helpful to me and very lightweight.
I had some troubles in my development minecraft world in in testing the "Switch Link Pearl", i made a lot of test and read all the documentation.
I discovered that when the daytime is stopped, the Switch Link Pearl is not working in the "rsgauges-1.12.2-1.1.3" release.
Then I enabled time ( "/gamerule doDaylightCycle true" ) and the remote switch link started working!
As a future feature, a wired relay switch could be an alternative solution, to avoid using too many ender pearls. :) :)
Thank you again and have a nice weekend!
