Talk:Sticky Piston

Block Removal
Can we confirm that there's no way of removing a block from a sticky piston? My understanding is that other pistons could move them quite easily. If we cannot confirm, there's no point in having it in the article. Faren22 01:30, 16 June 2011 (UTC)

Merge Article With Piston
This article has pretty much the same info on it as Piston article, so I think it should be merged. It would make sense, and eliminate having to go to another article to read about Sticky Pistons.
 * It's a seperate block/data id. I see no reason to merge just because it's currently a stub (which is reasonable considering the patch isn't even out yet).  Both are Pistons but both behave differently. --Warlock 22:53, 28 June 2011 (UTC)

They should merge when they are released. Mushrooms and Flowers have different IDs (36 and 37 for flowers, 38 and 39 for mushrooms) and they are in the same page. C ali nou - talk × contribs » 06:42, 29 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Mushrooms and Flowers are also damn near identical to each other (aside from appearance and minor differences with crafting). They all "do" exactly the same thing though (which is, make stew or look pretty and make dye). Sticky Pistons behave significantly different from regular pistons.  I just don't see a reason to bloat the already large Pistons article, which is only going to become larger once the things are actually released.  --Warlock 14:26, 29 June 2011 (UTC)

Possible Bug?
So I tried to re-create jeb's self revealing doorway using pistons. I did a simple test where a switch make a sticky piston push upwards. That would push another sticky piston, which with the help of a redstone diode would make the top piston push sideways. It worked fine, however I couldn't retract it back. When I flipped the switch off, the top piston came back the the bottom sticky piston didn't. It stayed it its "extended" form. Only then I placed an item in the same chunk did it "refresh" and the bottom one pulled back (sorta like how sugarcane without water will uproot when you activate redstone in the same chunk). So is this a bug? And how do I re-create jeb's house in the video the way he did in one swift motion? Jtlcr777 15:46, 30 June 2011 (UTC)
