Talk:Detector Rail

Found somthing in German about the Detector Block: Source/Quelle: http://www.cube-network.com/component/content/article/4/46-minecraft-release-termin-detector-rail-anti-fly-hack-.html Eines der moch geplanten Features wird ein neuer Block sein, der vermutlich in Minecraft 1.5 schon eingebaut wird: The Detector Rail (die Detektor Schiene), die erkennt, ob ein Minecart auf dem Schienenabschnitt steht bzw. fährt und dann ein elektronisches Signal (Redstone) abgibt. Das Signal wird nach aktuellem Stand der Planung unabhängig davon abgegeben, ob das Minecart besetzt oder leer ist.

Detector Rail was a planned feature - maybe content of 1.5

The Detector Rail is a new block which recognizes if a minecart is on (that?) track. It gives an electrical siglan (redstone). It does not matter if the cart is used or empty. –The preceding unsigned comment was added by Ian76g (Talk . Please sign your posts with

Detector
Nice, its great this was made. Perhamps if they want to make some detectors which would not detect empty carts, it would be better to make different one instead of changing current one. There are two types of pressure plates, why not different detector rails.... --TakeruDavis 16:39, 19 April 2011 (UTC)


 * Yea it would be nice if they would make one with a wooden plate that filled that role, then make the stone plate one only be affected by a player. &mdash; Neithan Diniem   †  19:36, 19 April 2011 (UTC)

I can't upload images for whatever reason, so here's the large image. If someone could upload it and put it into the article, that would be great. I already ran it through OptiPNG.

 * Take it from the blocks.png file, then use a decent image editor to increase its size. - Alphap T ~ C 04:34, 20 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Yea, I kinda figured that out when looking at the terrain.png. Thanks anyways. Cool12309(T 05:19, 20 April 2011 (UTC)

Old bug
Do we really need to list an old bug in the trivia section? --Tinaun 20:19, 10 May 2011 (UTC)

Yes, for historical purposes. C ali nou - talk × contribs » 20:39, 10 May 2011 (UTC)
