Copper blocks are decorative blocks that oxidize over time, gaining a viridian appearance. They can be crafted into waxed versions that do not oxidize. They can also be crafted back into four copper ingots unless they have started to oxidize, have been waxed, and/or crafted into the Cut variant.

Obtaining

Drowned can drop copper ingots, making (cut) copper blocks, cut copper slabs, cut copper stairs and lightning rods a renewable resource.

Breaking

Copper blocks can be mined only with a stone pickaxe or better. If a copper block is mined without the use of a pickaxe, it drops nothing.

Usage

Copper blocks are used for storing copper ingots. Weathered variants, waxed variants, and cut variants have no use except for decoration.

They have four stages of weathering (including the initial unweathered state), and advance to the next stage of weathering every 50–82 in-game days (1,200,000–1,967,999 game ticks, 1000–1640 minutes, or 16 h 40 min – 27 h 20 min). This requires the block to be in a loaded chunk. It relies on random ticks, and as such doesn't work in spawn chunks and other permanently loaded chunks, unless there is a player nearby.

A '''redstone comparator''' is a [[block]] that can produce an [[Redstone Dust|output signal]] from its front by reading [[chest]]s, [[lectern]]s, [[beehive]]s and similar blocks, or repeat a signal without changing its strength. It can also be set to either stop outputting a signal when its side input recieves a stronger one (front torch off), or subtract its side input's signal strength from its output (front torch on).

== Obtaining ==
=== Natural generation ===
Redstone comparators generate in [[Ancient City|ancient cities]].

=== Breaking ===
A redstone comparator can be broken instantly with any [[tool]], or by hand, and drops itself as an item.

{{Breaking row|Redstone Comparator|horizontal=y}}

A redstone comparator is removed and dropped as an item if:
* its attachment block is moved, removed, or destroyed;
* [[water]] flows into its space;{{only|java}}
* a [[piston]] tries to push it or moves a block into its space.

If [[lava]] flows into a redstone comparator's space, the redstone comparator is destroyed without dropping as an item.

}}

== Usage ==
A redstone comparator can be placed on the top of any [[opaque]] block with a solid full-height top surface (including upside-down [[slab]]s and upside-down [[stairs]]). {{IN|be}}, a comparator can also be placed on [[wall]]s and fences. For more information about placement on transparent blocks, see [[Opacity/Placement]].

The redstone comparator has a front and a back — the arrow on the top of the comparator points to the front. When placed, the comparator faces away from the player. The comparator has two miniature redstone torches at the back and one at the front. The back torches turn on when the comparator's output is greater than zero (the arrow on top also turns red). The front torch has two states that can be toggled by {{control|using}} the comparator:
* Down and unpowered (indicating the comparator is in "comparison mode")
* Up and powered (indicating the comparator is in "subtraction mode")

The redstone comparator can take a signal strength input from its rear as well as from both sides. Side inputs are accepted only from [[redstone dust]], [[block of redstone]], [[redstone repeater]]s, other comparators, and [[observer]]s in specific scenarios. The redstone comparator's front is its output.

It takes 1 [[redstone tick]] (2 game ticks, or 0.1 seconds barring lag) for signals to move through a redstone comparator, either from the rear or from the sides. This applies to changing signal strengths as well as simply to turning on and off. 

Redstone comparators check their power state before their scheduled ticks update. This results in redstone comparators not usually responding to 1-tick fluctuations of power or signal strength — for example, a [[clock circuit|1-clock]] input is treated as always off from the side, and always on from the rear. This happens because the signal changes back to its original state before the redstone comparator checks its input states. However, certain setups such as powering any input with two separate observer pulses at the same time will cause a redstone comparator to respond to 2 gametick pulses.

The redstone comparator has four functions: maintain signal strength, compare signal strength, subtract signal strength, and measure certain block states (primarily the fullness of containers).

=== Maintain signal strength ===
A redstone comparator with no powered sides outputs the same signal strength as its rear input.

=== Compare signal strength ===
[[File:Comparators Explained.png|Comparators in comparison mode.|thumb]]
A redstone comparator in comparison mode (front torch down and unpowered) compares its rear input to its two side inputs. If either side input is greater than the rear input, the comparator output turns off. If neither side input is greater than the rear input, the comparator outputs the same signal strength as its rear input.

The formula for calculating the output signal strength is as follows:

<code>output = rear × [[Wikipedia:Iverson bracket|[]]'''''left''''' ≤ '''''rear''''' AND '''''right''''' ≤ '''''rear'''''[[Wikipedia:Iverson bracket|<nowiki>]]]</code>
{{-}}

=== Subtract signal strength ===
[[File:Redstone comparator.png|thumb|The greatest of the side inputs A and C is subtracted from the rear input B, outputting 1. If either A or C were greater than B, it would output 0.]]
A redstone comparator in subtraction mode (front torch up and powered) subtracts the signal strength of the higher side input from the signal strength of the rear input.

<code>output = max('''''rear''''' − max('''''left''', '''right'''''), 0)</code>

For example: if the signal strength is 6 at the left input, 7 at the right input and 4 at the rear, the output signal has a strength of ''max(4 − max(6, 7), 0) = max(4−7, 0) = max(−3, 0) = 0''.

If the signal strength is 9 at the rear, 2 at the right input and 5 at the left input, the output signal has a strength of ''max(9 − max(2, 5), 0) = max(9−5, 0) = 4''.

=== Measure block state ===
{{Schematic | caption = A redstone comparator can measure the fullness of a chest, as well as other block states, even through an opaque block.
 |rd-ew!|rc-w!|ch|SB|rc-e!|rd-ew!
}}
A redstone comparator treats certain blocks behind it as power sources and outputs a signal strength proportional to the block's state. The comparator may be separated from the measured block by an opaque block. However, {{in|je}}, if the opaque block is powered to signal strength 15, then the comparator outputs 15 no matter the fullness of the container.<ref>{{bug|MC-64394}} (resolved as "Works As Intended")</ref>

A redstone comparator can output a signal indicating how full a container is. (0 for empty, 15 for full, etc.) The table on the right is described more in detail, later in this section.

Containers that can be measured by a comparator include:
* {{BlockLink|Furnace}}
* {{BlockLink|Blast Furnace}}
* {{BlockLink|Smoker}}
* {{BlockLink|Brewing Stand}}
* {{BlockLink|Hopper}}
* {{ItemLink|Minecart with Hopper}} on top of a [[detector rail]]
* {{BlockLink|Dispenser}}
* {{BlockLink|Dropper}}
* {{BlockLink|Chest}}
* {{BlockLink|Trapped Chest}}
* {{ItemLink|Minecart with Chest}} on top of a [[detector rail]]
* {{BlockLink|Barrel}}
* {{SchematicSprite|size=16|ch-e}}{{SchematicSprite|size=16|ch-w}} Large chest
* {{SchematicSprite|size=16|ch-e}}{{SchematicSprite|size=16|ch-w}} Large trapped chest
* {{BlockLink|Shulker Box}} (any color)

Generally speaking, the comparator output signal strength represents the average fullness of the slots, based on how many of that item form a full stack (64, 16, or 1 for non-stackable items).

The ''Minimum Items for Container Signal Strength'' table (right) shows the minimum '''''full-stack-equivalent (FSE)''''' to produce different signal strengths from common containers. A '''''full-stack-equivalent''''' quantifies how many normal 64-stackable items are needed to output a corresponding signal strength. The 's' is a constant 64, with the additional amount needed following after.

One may also consider the terms: '''c''umulative-weight''''' or '''''weighted-sum''''' instead of '''''full-stack-equivalent'''''.

Items that stack to a max of 16  ([[snowball]]s, [[sign]]s, [[ender pearl]]s, etc.), contribute +4 to the ''full-stack-equivalent'' for each unity (count of 1 item). Similarly, items that stack to 1 ([[minecart]], [[boat]], etc.) contribute +64, and items that stack to 64 contribute +1.

Example 1: 3 ender pearls will contribute a 3 x 4 = 12 ''full-stack-equivalent''.

Example 2: 16 ender pearls and 60 redstone dust contributes a 16x4 + 60x1 = 124 ''full-stack-equivalent''.

Example 3: 1 minecart and 60 redstone dust contributes a 1x64 + 60x1 = 124 ''full-stack-equivalent''.

Example 4: To produce a signal strength of 10 from a hopper, one requires a ''full-stack-equivalent'' of at least 3s + 14 = 206 but strictly less than than 3s + 37 = 229. This can be done with 3 minecarts, and 14 dirt.

When a comparator measures a large chest or large trapped chest, it measures the entire large chest (54 slots), not just the half directly behind the comparator. A chest or trapped chest that cannot be opened (either because it has an opaque block, [[ocelot]], or [[cat]] above it) always produces an output of 0 no matter how many items are in the container — shulker boxes can always be measured, even if they cannot open.

;Calculating signal strength from items

:When a container is empty, the output is off.

:When it is not empty, the output signal strength is calculated as follows:

:<code>'''''signal strength''''' = floor(1 + (('''''sum of all slots' fullnesses''''') / ('''''number of slots in container''''')) × 14)</code>

:<code>fullness of a slot = '''''number of items in slot''''' / '''''max stack size for this type of item'''''</code>

:''Example:'' 300 blocks in a dispenser (which has 9 slots), where each block stacks to a maximum of 64 has a 300 ''full-stack-equivalent.'' This produces an output with a signal strength of 8:
<blockquote>
1 + ((300 items / 64 items per slot) / 9 slots) × 14 = 8.292, floored is 8
</blockquote>

;Calculating items from signal strength

:It can be useful in redstone circuits to use containers with comparators to create signals of a specific strength. The number of items required in a container to produce a signal of desired strength is calculated as follows:

:<code>items required = max('''''desired signal strength''''', roundup(('''''total slots in container''''' × 64 / 14) × (desired signal strength − 1)))</code>

:''Example:'' To use a furnace (which has 3 slots) to create a strength 9 signal, players need 110 items:
<blockquote>
max(9, (3×64/14) × (9−1)) = 109.714, rounded up is 110
</blockquote>

==== Miscellaneous ====
[[File:Comparator storage.png|Comparators used to measure containers.|thumb]]
Some non-container blocks can also be measured by a redstone comparator:

;{{BlockLink|Beehive}} and {{BlockLink|Bee nest}}

: A hive or nest outputs a signal strength equal to the amount of honey in the hive/nest.

;{{BlockLink|Cake}}

: A cake outputs a signal strength relative to the amount of cake remaining.  Each slice is worth 2 signal strength, with 7 total slices, for an output of 14 for a full cake.

[[File:Cauldron Redstone Strength Values.png|Cauldron signal strength|thumb]]
;{{BlockLink|Cauldron}}

: A cauldron outputs different signal strengths depending on how much water or powdered snow is inside. From completely empty to completely full, the output values are 0, 1, 2, and 3. If lava or powder snow is inside, the strength is always 3.

[[File:Composter Redstone Strength Values.png|Composter signal strength|thumb]]
;{{BlockLink|Composter}}

: A composter outputs different signal strengths depending on the level inside. From completely empty to completely full, the output values are 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8.

;{{Anchor|CommandBlock}}{{BlockLink|Command Block}}

: A command block stores the "success count" of the last command executed, which represents the number of times the most recently used command of this command block succeeded. A "success" is defined by the [[command]]'s success conditions: if a red error message is returned in the chat, the command was not successful.

: Most commands can succeed once per execution, but certain commands (such as those that accept players as arguments) can succeed multiple times, and the comparator outputs the number of times it succeeded (maximum 15 when sent to redstone dust, but in the code it is able to go up to the 32-bit integer limit, and can be used in contraptions with no redstone dust with those values).

: A command block continues to store the success count of the last command executed until it executes its command again, thus the comparator continues to output the same signal strength even after the command block is no longer being activated (it doesn't turn off when the signal to the command block turns off).

;{{BlockLink|End Portal Frame}}

: An end portal frame outputs a full signal of 15 if it contains an [[eye of ender]] and zero otherwise.

[[File:Item frame and comparator.png|A comparator can measure the presence and rotation of an item frame's contents.|thumb]]

;{{EntityLink|Item Frame}}

: A comparator can measure the state of an [[item frame]]'s contents. An item frame comparator outputs 0 if the item frame is empty, or 1 to 8 for any item depending on its rotation: 1 at initial placement, plus 1 for each 45° of rotation for a maximum of 8.

: For an item frame that holds a map, a unit of rotation is 90° instead of 45°, but a comparator still outputs power levels 1 to 8. It takes two full rotations to cycle through all comparator outputs, and each orientation of the map corresponds to two output levels that differ by 4.

: The comparator must be placed behind the block the item frame is attached to, facing away from the item frame. The block must be a full block, and the item frame cannot be submerged in water. Having a sign in the same block as the item frame will prevent the frame from sending a signal as well.{{only|java}}

;{{BlockLink|Jukebox}}

: A jukebox outputs a signal strength indicating which music disc is currently playing. See the ''Minimum Items for Container Signal Strength'' table above.

;{{BlockLink|Lectern}}

: A lectern outputs a signal strength that depends on what page the player is currently on. The calculation used is:
:<code>'''''signal strength''''' = floor(1 + (('''''current page''''' - 1) / ('''''number of pages in book''''' - 1)) × 14)</code>
:This results in page 1 having a signal strength of 1, and the last page having a signal strength of 15. The exception is a single page book, which will output a signal strength of 15.
:For example, a book with 15 pages will output a signal equal to the current page number.  A book with 5 pages will output signal strengths of 1, 4, 8, 11 and 15 for the different pages. A book with 100 pages will have the signal strength increase to the next level on pages 1, 9, 16, 23, 30, 37, 44, 51, 58, 65, 72, 79, 86, 93 and 100.
:

;{{BlockLink|Respawn Anchor}}

: A respawn anchor outputs a signal strength of 0, 3, 7, 11, or 15, depending on the "charged" value.

;{{BlockLink|Sculk Sensor}}

: A sculk sensor outputs a signal strength depending on the type of vibration that is detected.

;{{BlockLink|Chiseled Bookshelf}}

: A chisled bookshelf outputs a signal strength between 1 and 6 indicating the last slot interacted with. When no slot has been interacted with yet, it outputs 0.

'''Paintings''' are decorative [[entity|entities]] that hang on walls.

== Obtaining ==
=== Crafting ===
{{Crafting
|A1= Stick |B1= Stick    |C1= Stick
|A2= Stick |B2= Any Wool |C2= Stick
|A3= Stick |B3= Stick    |C3= Stick
|Output= Painting
|type= Decoration block
}}

Paintings can be crafted with any color of [[wool]]. The color of the wool used does not influence the picture chosen when the painting is placed.
Once placed, it displays a random painting.

=== Breaking ===
To remove a painting from a wall, the player can {{control|attack}} it, break one of its supporting blocks, cover one square of it with a block, hit it with an arrow, egg, ender pearl, snowball, or fire charge, or subject it to an explosion. The painting then drops as an item. Arrows that hit paintings disappear.

=== Trading ===
Master-level shepherd [[villager]]s sell 3 paintings for 2 [[emerald]]s.

== Usage ==
=== Placement ===
Paintings can be placed on the sides of [[solid block]]s, [[sign]]s, [[banner]]s, or [[sculk vein]]s . A small gap is visible between the painting and attachment surface. There are several different sizes of paintings (see below). When placed, a painting checks for the largest amount of space it has. It then chooses a random painting of that size. The player can add blocks around the painting to ensure it is the size wanted. When the supporting blocks are removed, the painting breaks after 20 game [[tick]]s (1 second) if no supporting blocks are replaced during that interval.

=== Properties ===
Being an entity, paintings can simultaneously exist in the same space as blocks such as water or torches. Specifically, they can share the space with any block whose collision box does not intersect its hitbox.

Players and mobs are able to walk through paintings, as long as the blocks supporting the painting allow it. Secret doorways can be created this way. [[Light]] propagates through paintings as well.

If a player is concealed behind a painting, the player's name is also concealed from other players.{{verify|Is this true in Bedrock?}}

Paintings are non-flammable.

== Canvases ==
There are 26 paintings in the game. These are mostly based on paintings by [[Kristoffer Zetterstrand]], who also created the ''Minecraft'' versions.

=== Unused paintings ===
In [[Pocket Edition v0.5.0 alpha|v0.5.0 alpha]], with the addition of paintings to Pocket Edition, four unused 32×32 paintings were present in <samp>[[kz.png]]</samp> which remained unused. See {{slink|Bedrock Edition unused features|Paintings}} for more information. They were also added to Java Edition in snapshot [[Java Edition 22w16a|22w16a]]. They cannot be placed by default, but can be summoned by [[commands]] (such as {{cmd|/summon painting ~ ~ ~ {variant:"water"} }}) or through a [[datapack]].

According to [[Helen Zbihlyj]],<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/Minecraft/comments/u8hpnx/thoughts_on_the_new_paintings/i5olue6/?context=3 ([https://web.archive.org/web/20220422115723/https://old.reddit.com/r/Minecraft/comments/u8hpnx/thoughts_on_the_new_paintings/i5olue6/?context=3 archived])</ref> these paintings were originally added "as part of a Pocket Edition promo map" (no footage found) which was planned to be a part of [[Pocket Edition]] promotion at [[MINECON 2012]] [[MINECON 2013|or 2013]] and have never been used in game. The artist of these paintings remains unknown.

* The texture on the back of a painting is the same as the wooden planks texture, but with a yellowish color similar to that of [[chests]] (but slightly darker).
* The "Skull on Fire" painting contains a Minecraft world in the background, which is based on a screenshot taken by the artist in [[Java Edition Alpha v1.1.2 01|Alpha 1.1.2_01]] (or earlier) on October 12, 2010, at 13:22:49 (UTC+2).<ref>{{cite|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220928041338/https://imgur.com/HVhrbnH|title=The original (never publicly shared before) screenshot that Kristoffer Zetterstrand took and based his painting on.|website=Imgur}}</ref>

* The "Skull on Fire" painting's texture was added in [[Java Edition Beta 1.3|Beta 1.3]]. However, the code for paintings to randomly display the part of the [[Kz.png]] texture that was to be occupied by the Burning Skull painting was added earlier, in [[Java Edition Beta 1.2_01|Beta 1.2_01]]. As there was nothing on this part of the texture except for a purple background grid, this is what would be displayed if the painting was randomly chosen, until the Burning Skull painting texture was actually added.
* The original "Skull on Fire" painting was given to the winner of an official texture pack competition by Mojang.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20110110003612/http://www.webhallen.com:80/minecraft/</ref>

'''Lingering potions''' are variants of [[splash potion]]s that can be thrown to leave clouds with [[status effect]]s that linger on the ground in an area. 

== Obtaining ==

=== Brewing ===
{{main|Brewing}}

{{brewing
  |Dragon's Breath
  |Any Lingering Potion
  |ingredients=[[Dragon's Breath]] + <br>Any [[Splash Potion]]
}}

== Usage ==

=== Creating area effect clouds ===
Lingering potions are thrown, like [[splash potion]]s, by {{control|using}} them. On impact they explode, creating a cloud. The cloud is made of the potion particles corresponding to the potion that was thrown.  

The cloud starts with a radius of 3 blocks, decreasing to 0 over the course of 30 seconds. During the cloud's existence, any player or mob that walks into it after the first second gets the corresponding status effect; this decreases the radius by a {{frac|1|2}} block immediately, reducing the cloud's lifespan by 5 seconds.

For effects with duration, the duration applied by the cloud is {{frac|1|4}} that of the corresponding [[potion]]. For effects without duration such as healing or harming, the potency of the effect is {{frac|1|2}} that of the corresponding potion.

The effect may be applied consecutively if the player or mob remains in the cloud. For example, a player throwing the Lingering Potion of Healing II straight down consumes the cloud within a few seconds while being healed 5 times for a total of {{hp|20}} health. As far as healing is concerned, this makes the lingering potion much more powerful than the regular or splash potion, provided that the player is away from other mobs or players.

Lingering potions can also be thrown out of [[dispenser]]s like splash potions.

=== Lingering water bottle ===
Like the [[Splash potion#Splash water bottles|splash water bottle]], a lingering water bottle puts out fire and damages endermen and blazes by {{hp|1}}. It creates no effect cloud.

==== Mud ====

Lingering water bottles can be {{control|used}} on [[dirt]], [[coarse dirt]], or [[rooted dirt]] to turn it into [[mud]].

=== Crafting ingredient ===

{{crafting usage|Lingering Potion, Lingering Water Bottle|match=any}}

=== Filling cauldrons ===

{{IN|bedrock}}, using a lingering potion on a cauldron adds one level of that potion to the cauldron. Attempting to add a lingering potion to a cauldron with water, dyed water or a non-matching potion empties the cauldron and creates an explosion sound (but no actual explosion).

=== Uncraftable lingering potion ===

{{IN|java}}, the uncraftable potion is a splash potion with no effect that is unobtainable in regular gameplay. It is also available in potion and splash potion forms, as well as for tipped arrows.

It can be obtained using the following command: {{cmd|give @s minecraft:lingering_potion{Potion:"minecraft:empty"} }}. It is also obtained any time a potion has invalid or missing potion effect tags, and thus serves as a placeholder.

== Custom effects ==

{{IN|java}}, lingering potions can be obtained with any status effect using {{cmd|give}} and the tag {{code|CustomPotionEffects}}, which is an array of effects for the potion. See [[Item format#Potion Effects]] for more information, and [[status effect]] for a list of effects and IDs.
