Talk:Lever/Archive 1

Not everyone is from the USA
I strongly disagree with the recent addition of:
 * Contrary to what makes sense, up is OFF, while down is ON. The default is up.

Those in the USA might think this way but for lots of the rest of the world, they way they function now in game is the same as all electrical switches in our part of the world! I'd fix it if I could but something is preventing me editing that page, hence the note here..

The crafting Template does not seem reversed
If you think of the template as to how levers look ontop of a block, it matches quite well. --Fishrock123 16:56, 9 November 2010 (CST)
 * I think the reason people think it's backwards is because the inventory image shows just a stick with a stone nob on the end, so they think the stone block is that, instead of the base of the lever. – ultradude25 ( T 17:12, 9 November 2010 (CST)

bug
Took me a damn long time to figure out why my circuit was broken... If you place a lever on top of a block, and have a redstone torch on the side of this block, the lever can't always toggle the torch. I had to turn my lever from a north/south orientation to a east/west orientation so it can toggle the torch properly. Someone should rephrase this and add to the article. btw, build = beta 1.1_02 Shadow X 13:00, 10 January 2011 (UTC)

this used to be in the article, but I see it has been removed... Raiu tree 05:35, 23 January 2011 (UTC)


 * I have also noticed this. If you put redstone in the four cardinal positions on the ground next to the block, you will see that one orientation powers them while the other does not. --Rehevkor5 07:14, 4 April 2011 (UTC)

Toogle lever
Is it possible to toggle lever without manually going to it and clicking it? Xeoxer 10:20, 10 July 2011 (UTC)


 * No. – ultradude25 ( T at 06:58, 11 July 2011 (UTC)

Trivia
"Levers are a easy and efficient alternative to redstone torches early in the game for powering objects because they do not consist of redstone, which is much rarer than wood and stone and is only found deep underneath the surface of the map." Make a trivia section and add this to it? I just created my account and I don't want to mess stuff up --HexZyle 06:45, 12 July 2011 (UTC)
