Talk:Block update detector

Proof of existence
I can't find anywhere that Jeb even states this block will exist 82.95.113.83 20:13, 17 January 2013 (UTC)


 * It was mentioned at MineCon. They talked about a block to replace BUD switch circuits due to their functionality being "fixed" in 1.5, since they have accepted that bug as a "feature". There has not been a specific mention since, other than the daylight detector, which is/was one of the uses of a BUD switch configuration.  20:42, 17 January 2013 (UTC)

Not going to happen probably
Block updates were patched. So this block is mostly useless. See this video by cubehamster. Pokechu22 01:25, 18 January 2013 (UTC)


 * You are misunderstanding the purpose of this future block, which does not exist yet. It is (hopefully still) planned to counter that block update fix, making this block extremely useful if it comes to fruition.  01:54, 18 January 2013 (UTC)

Appearance
It has been lacking a look for a long time and I wonder what it would look like Zigzagar 15:55, 6 February 2013 (UTC)


 * Hmmm... I'm thinking something that looks either similar to a piston or a command block. Though I could be wrong. –Preceding unsigned comment was added by 14.2.52.49 (Talk) 10:45, 9 February 2013‎ (UTC). Please sign your posts with

BUD switch will not happen
this is not going to be in the redstone update, it is not a planned feature. I've tried editing the planned features section in the blocks category and I can't.

This needs to be removed. They are not adding it. KomaSixx 14:09, 27 February 2013 (UTC)


 * Do you have a statement from Mojang confirming this, or are you just guessing? -- Orthotope 16:37, 27 February 2013 (UTC)


 * Regardless, the fact is it isn't currently in the 1.5 update which is currently set to be released next week. You can debate on whether or not it will be added in the far flung future, but in the mean time, the article should be updated with a citation of the statement made during Minecon (if it indeed exists) and the links should be moved from 1.5 features to possible future features. 69.91.162.58 19:59, 5 March 2013 (UTC)

What to do with this page
, what if we turned this redirect into a disambiguation page, one pointing to Tutorials/Block update detector and one pointing to Observer? – Sealbudsman talk/contr 14:18, 4 October 2016 (UTC)


 * PS: For future research (since I know this has been an unresolved point so far), I believe people might be referencing this Minecon 2012 panel, when they talk about 'Jeb adding a bud switch'. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YG9RNyRhIow –  Sealbudsman talk/contr 14:41, 4 October 2016 (UTC)
