This feature is exclusive to Java Edition. 

Item modifiers are technical JSON files that can be created inside data packs and are used to add loot functions into existing items using the command /item.

This page describes how item modifiers are defined and invoked. It also shows the JSON structure of a loot function, the primary JSON structure within an item modifier.

Definition[]

An item modifier is an item function or an array of item functions to apply to the item. They are defined using the JSON format.

Item modifiers belong in the following folder of a data pack's structure, highlighted below:

  • (data pack name)
    • pack.mcmeta
    • pack.png
    • data
      • (namespace)
        • advancements
          • (advancement).json
        • functions
          • (function).mcfunction
        • item_modifiers
          • (modifier).json
        • loot_tables
          • (loot table).json
        • predicates
          • (predicate).json
        • Further folders…

The root element of an item modifier can be either an  object, following the structure of an item function below, or an  array, containing multiple item functions.

Invocation[]

Item modifiers can only be invoked with the /item command. When doing so, it is required to specify a target slot to invoke the modifier upon, either an item inside a container block's contents, or inside an entity's inventory.

There are two variations of this command: /item modify invokes a modifier alone upon the target slot, /item replace replaces the item in the target slot with another and subsequently invokes a modifier upon it.

item modify (block <pos> | entity <targets>) <slot> <modifier>
item replace (block <pos> | entity <targets>) <slot> from (block <pos> | entity <targets>) [<modifier>]

Although item modifiers are only invokable using commands, item functions (the underlying structure) can be entered into other files such as Loot tables.

Item function JSON format[]

This section describes the JSON format of a single item function. Multiple item functions may be entered into one item modifier by placing them into a JSON array.

  • The root tag of the item function.
    •  function: Resource location of the function to apply. Valid functions are described below.
    •  conditions: A list of predicates, of which all must pass, for this function to be applied.

{{Item
| image = Name Tag.png

| stackable = Yes (64)
}}
A '''name tag''' is an [[item]] used to name [[mob]]s in the world and prevent them from despawning naturally.

== Obtaining ==

=== Chest loot ===

{{LootChestItem|name-tag}}

=== Fishing ===

Name tags can be caught from [[fishing]] as part of the treasure category with a {{frac|1|6}} chance after the 5% chance of being a treasure catch. The chance of catching treasure increases with the [[Luck of the Sea]] enchantment.

=== Trading ===

Master-level librarian [[villagers]] offer to sell a name tag for 20 [[emerald]]s as one of their available trades.

== Usage ==

To use a name tag, it must first be renamed with an [[anvil]], costing 1 [[experience]] level. 

If it is not renamed, it has no effect when used on a mob. After the name tag is renamed, the player can {{control|use}} it on a mob to give it the name given to the name tag from the anvil. Mobs and name tags can be renamed any number of times. Name tags with the same name are stackable. 

Once a mob is named, it keeps its name, and the name tag is consumed.

When a mob is named, it is excluded from the mob cap count.

Effects on various mobs:
* A named [[silverfish]] that goes into a block appears to lose its name because it is replaced by a newly generated unnamed silverfish when the block is broken.
* A baby (animal or villager) keeps its name when becoming an adult.
** A named [[villager]] keeps its name when transformed into a [[Zombie Villager|zombie villager]].
** A named zombie villager keeps its name when cured.
* [[Wandering Trader|Wandering trader]]s still despawn even if they are named, or in a [[minecart]] or [[boat]].
* A named [[wither]]'s boss bar displays its name instead of "Wither".
* Naming an [[ender dragon]] with commands also displays the name in the boss bar.

=== Limitations ===

Any mob can be named except for the [[ender dragon]] and [[player]]s.

A name tag can rename an [[armor stand]], though it does not show the nameplate above its head until <code>CustomNameVisible:1b</code> is set as an extra step.

{{control|Using|use}} a name tag on a villager renames the villager instead of opening the trading interface. A saddled pig is renamed instead of being ridden. Using a name tag on any other mob that can be interacted with performs the {{control|use}} action instead of being named. These mobs can be renamed if the player uses the name tag while crouching or standing in a [[nether portal]] because the portal suppresses the {{control|use}} action.

Once a name tag is used on a mob, it is impossible to remove the name of that mob without the use of commands or external modifications.

=== Behavior ===

Renamed mobs have their name displayed over their head in the same fashion as a mob named through a renamed [[spawn egg]]. Their names can be seen only if they are aimed at from four or fewer blocks away.

Mobs that are named using the name tag never despawn in the world, similar to tamed mobs.<ref>{{tweet|dinnerbone|327485109940916226}}</ref> The exceptions are [[wandering trader]]s or if the mob is hostile and the difficulty is switched to "[[Peaceful]]", causing any hostile mobs or any named hostile mobs to despawn immediately. 

If a renamed mob kills a player, the custom name is used in the death message in place of the mob type name. For instance, if a vindicator named "Johnny" kills a player, the death message is "Player was slain by Johnny". 

A renamed [[wither]] also has a renamed health bar, and the boss bar doesn't regenerate{{verify}}.

=== Easter eggs ===

* Any mob that receives the name "[[Easter eggs#Upside-down mobs|Dinnerbone]]" or "[[Easter eggs#Upside-down mobs|Grumm]]" is rendered upside down. This even includes the player in early versions of Bedrock Edition if the username is set to either of these and you are not signed into Xbox Live.
* Naming a [[sheep]] "[[Easter eggs#Jeb sheep|jeb_]]" causes its wool to fade between the dye colors, producing a rainbow effect. The [[wool]] that drops when the sheep is [[shear]]ed or killed is the original color of the sheep before the sheep was named.
* Naming a [[rabbit]] "[[Rabbit#Toast|Toast]]" causes it to have a special memorial skin of user xyzen420's girlfriend's [http://www.reddit.com/r/minecraftsuggestions/comments/27hjog/to_themogminer_my_bunny_is_missing_please_help_me/ missing rabbit].
* Naming a [[vindicator]] "Johnny" causes it to be aggressive and attack all [[mob]]s including the wither (except [[ghast]]s and other [[illager]]s). The hostility even extends to [[Ravager|ravagers]] in [[Java Edition|''Java Edition'']], as the "Johnny" vindicator can also attack the ravager while it's riding it.

== Trivia ==
* Name tags were added at the request of [https://www.youtube.com/user/paulsoaresjr/ Paulsoaresjr].<ref>{{tweet|paulsoaresjr|326865482839883777}}</ref><ref>{{tweet|Dinnerbone|326812168630722561}}</ref>
* A stack of up to 64 name tags can be renamed at once. The cost is 1 [[experience]] level per stack, regardless of how many name tags were stacked.
* To name a [[mob]] “Name Tag” the player must give the name tag a random name, then rename it back to “Name Tag”.
* A [[villager]] with a name tag turned into a [[zombie villager]] by a [[zombie]] with a name tag does not despawn, but a villager with a name tag turned into a zombie by a zombie without a name tag does despawn.
* It is impossible to have a rainbow [[sheep]] upside-down, because it is impossible for it to be named “Jeb_” and “Dinnerbone” at the same time.

'''Raw chicken''' is a [[food]] item that can be eaten by the [[player]]. It can be cooked in a [[furnace]], [[smoker]], or a [[campfire]] to make [[cooked chicken]].

==Obtaining==

===Mob loot ===

Upon death, an adult [[chicken]] drops 1 raw chicken. The maximum is increased by 1 per level of [[Looting]], for a maximum of 1-4 with Looting III. Chickens that die while on [[fire]] drop [[cooked chicken]] instead.

===Cat gifts===
{{main|Cat#Gifts}}

Tamed [[cat]]s have a 70% chance to give the [[player]] a gift as they wake up from a [[bed]], and the gift has a 16.13% chance to be raw chicken.

==Usage==

=== Food===

To eat raw chicken, press and hold {{control|use}} while it is selected in the hotbar. Eating one restores {{hunger|2}} hunger and 1.2 hunger [[Hunger#Mechanics|saturation]], but has a 30% chance of inflicting food poisoning (the {{EffectLink|link=Hunger (status effect)|Hunger}} effect for 30 seconds).

<nowiki>*This has a similar effect as [[Rotten Flesh]].

===Smelting ingredient===

Wolves are at no risk of food poisoning.

===Trading===
Novice-level Butcher villagers have a {{frac|1|3}} chance to buy 14 raw chicken for an emerald.{{only|bedrock}}

Novice-level Butcher villagers have a 50% chance of offering to buy 14 raw chicken for an emerald.{{only|java}}

===Archaeology===
{{LootChestItem|disc-relic}}

===Mob loot===
When killed by any [[skeleton]] or [[stray]] (or [[wither skeleton]] if given a [[bow]] using commands), a [[creeper]] drops a random music disc in addition to its normal drops, with the exceptions of Pigstep, otherside, 5, and Relic.

Because [[TNT]] ignited by a flaming [[arrow]] attributes all resulting kills to the entity that fired the arrow, a skeleton igniting a TNT block due to holding a [[bow]] enchanted with [[Flame]], or shooting through [[lava]] or fire, also causes any creepers killed in the explosion to drop a disc.<ref>{{bug|MC-210303|||WAI}}</ref><ref>{{bug|MCPE-150884|||WAI}}</ref>

|A somewhat unsettling, cave-themed ambient piece consisting mostly of echoed synthesized ambient sounds that closely resemble those that play in the game's caves, resonating metallic clinks, and quiet wind blowing. The entire track is wholly engulfed in reverb. At different points in the piece, muffled bow firings, a heavily reverbed hiss followed by a subsequent heavily reverbed explosion and echoed splashes can be heard in the background. The track goes silent for 13 seconds at the 1:30 mark.

At 1:46, what sounds like an interpolation of part of the melody from the track "Minecraft" plays.

The four-note pattern at 2:04 can also be heard at the beginning of "far" and "dog".

|A recording that begins with vinyl static, followed by the sounds of someone walking on or breaking [[stone]] blocks, heavy breathing, and rustling. Haunting background noises are heard throughout the recording, resembling the ambient sound effects that play in the game's caves (and by extension, the sounds of the disc "13"). After the background noises quiet down for a moment, metallic clicking or scraping noises can be heard, followed by coughing, sounds of page-turning, then more clicking or scraping. The background noises resume more loudly, and the sounds of faster footsteps or breaking [[stone]] blocks can be heard, which accelerate until they are replaced with [[dirt]] sounds as the background noises approach. A loud, distorted noise is heard roughly a second before the recording abruptly stops. At this point, one hears only quiet beeping, vinyl static, and a hissing noise, and the track ends.

| A recording that begins with static and a warped noise. After a moment of silence, there is the sound of a [[Flint and Steel|flint and steel]] lighting, [[fire]], a [[bat]], and then walking. The walking becomes heavier and metallic. The sound stops with sounds of breathing followed by a roar which warps into soft, relaxing music. The music soon transitions back, to the sound of footsteps, [[lava]] bubbling, and  [[Block of Amethyst|amethyst]]. A warped noise and a [[sculk shrieker]] can be heard activating. Then a coughing sound, something metallic and stone and sand sounds followed by another warped noise can be heard. Then, after a moment of silence, a heartbeat begins and a rising static can be heard in the background. Sounds of [[deepslate]] can then be heard, along with strange noises building up and abruptly stopping. A crescendo of overlapping warped sounds is followed then dies down. The footsteps begin again, much quieter now. A [[sculk sensor]] clicks, and a [[warden]] roars. The wardens roar warps and slows down, and then the disc ends.

The main melody of "A Time of Legends" and "The Well of Fate" from the [[Minecraft Legends:Original Game Soundtrack|original soundtrack]] of [[Minecraft Legends]] is heard later, played on the same 8-bit synthesizer. Later in the song a bass is added to the noise. Slight record grain and warbled pitches can be heard throughout the song.

==Usage==
The music discs resemble older 78-{{tooltip|rpm|Revolutions per minute}} {{w|phonograph records}} from the early 20th century, which were often played in jukeboxes from that era. They are used in ''Minecraft'' in a similar fashion: A music disc can be played on a [[jukebox]] by holding the disc and right-clicking on the jukebox.

The in-game music disc tracks are all {{w|Monaural|monaural}} recordings. Tracks released for listening outside of the game are in {{w|Stereophonic_sound|stereo}}.

If the [[player]] places a [[Redstone Comparator|comparator]] besides a jukebox, the intensity of the redstone signal depends on the disc currently played, with the following values:

==Trivia==

* Before [[Java Edition 1.13/Flattening|''The Flattening'']], data values used by music discs ranged from 2256 to 2267, while all other blocks/items used the first free data value available.
* The title "13" is a reference to the 13 cave ambience sounds that existed when the disc was added. Similar sounds can be heard throughout the track.  
** Because "13" was created in 2010, it actually uses older sound effects from earlier versions of the game for bow firing{{sound||Bow_Shooting_Old.ogg}}, arrow impacts{{sound||Arrow_Old.ogg}}, explosions{{sound||Explosion_Old.ogg}}, and water splashing{{sound||Water_Splash_Old.ogg}}, which have since been replaced. 
***The background noise also bears resemblance to a deeper version of the unused and removed [[Java_Edition_removed_features#Audio_loops|cave chimes]]{{sound||Cave_chimes.ogg}}. Before the explosion, there was also the sound of a creeper fuse{{sound||Creeper_fuse.ogg}} which is still used.
**C418 initially wanted the music disc to be found deep underground in a cave in-game, being played by some device.<ref>https://c418.org/albums/minecraft-volume-alpha/</ref>
*Exclusively on {{el|lce}}, an extra track called "dog" is appended to the "cat" music disc. Once "cat" is done playing and fades out, "dog" begins playing for another two minutes or so, making this version of "cat" the longest music disc in the game.
*"chirp" uses the same accompaniment samples as "The Orb of Dreamers" from the ''[[w:c:littlebigplanet:LittleBigPlanet (series)|LittleBigPlanet]]'' series.<ref>{{ytl|3Jnubcn2G-Y|Daniel Pemberton - The Orb Of Dreamers}}</ref> The samples come from the {{w|Optigan}} disc "Bossa Nova Style".<ref>{{ytl|G89vIy8Guj4|Optigan Program Disc: Bossa Nova Style|t=22}}</ref> C418 stated that it was coincidental.<ref>{{tweet|1=c418|2=314472205109043200|3=Remember when people thought I plagiarized LittleBigPlanet music? Yeah, the Optigan is a lovely instrument that I will never utilize again.|4=March 20, 2013}}</ref>
*The texture used for the music disc "chirp" was previously used for the [[camera]] tripod texture prior to [[Pocket Edition v0.9.0 alpha]].
*The title "stal" is a Swedish word meaning ''stole'' in English and a Polish word meaning ''steel''.
*The music disc "11" is the only visibly damaged music disc. 
**If the .ogg file for "11" is turned into a {{w|spectrogram}} in an audio editor, the static at the end displays what seems to be [[Player|Steve]]'s face and the numbers 12418. The numbers are a visual signature, where "C" is hexadecimal for "12", and combined with "418" creates "[[Daniel Rosenfeld|C418]]", the name of the producer of all of the music disc tracks except for "Pigstep", "otherside", "5" and "Relic".
**Within the disc are sounds, in order of appearance, of stone{{sound||Stone_dig4.ogg}}{{sound||Stone_dig1.ogg}}{{sound||Stone_dig3.ogg}}{{sound||Stone_dig2.ogg}} and dirt or gravel{{sound||Gravel_dig1.ogg}}{{sound||Gravel_dig4.ogg}}{{sound||Gravel_dig3.ogg}}{{sound||Gravel_dig2.ogg}}. At the time disc "11" was made, footstep sounds, placing sounds, and breaking sounds were the same for the respecive block. It is unknown exactly what the character was doing when these sounds were played.
**There is a track that is exclusive to the album ''[[Minecraft - Volume Beta]]'' called "Eleven", which has the same length of 1:11 and begins with the same vinyl static sound before being abruptly interrupted by a record scratching sound and switching to a new, calm piano piece.
** C418 once imagined that the "monster" chasing the person in "11" is himself "being a weird monster that occasionally records songs from strangers and then dies in '11'".<ref>{{tweet|c418|119413441793495040|Yes! I now imagine C418 being a weird monster that occasionally records songs from strangers. And then dies in 11|September 29, 2011}}</ref>
** "11" causes jukeboxes to output a redstone signal strength of 11.
** Before [[Java Edition 1.13]], the [[data value]] of "11" was 11.
**[[Brandon Pearce]] stated that the [[warden]] mob is based on the "monster" heard at the end of "11".<ref>{{ytl|pH_6-ZVOUAk|Ask Mojang #11: All About Caves & Cliffs|Minecraft|OCtober 30, 2020}}</ref>
*The music disc "wait", originally titled "where are we now", was finally added to [[Java Edition 1.4.3]] after existing solely in the game's files for an unspecified amount of time.
**"wait" used the original title "where are we now" in older versions of the Legacy Console Edition.
*"Pigstep" is the only disc to have its name capitalized in-game, and it can only be found in [[Bastion Remnant|bastion remnant]]s. It is also the music disc with the fastest beat.
*"Pigstep" is a {{w|portmanteau}} of "piglin" and "dubstep".<ref>{{tweet|kuraine|1277309336532840448|I don't have any cool insight on the title, it's just dubstep for piglins.|June 26, 2020}} </ref>
*“5” is the only music disc that is crafted, as it requires 9 disc fragments in a 3×3 formation to craft.
**In disc “5”, there are some sounds taken from [[Minecraft Dungeons]] of the [[MCD:Endersent|Endersent]] {{sound||D6 sfx mob endersentIdleVocal-001.ogg}}, the [[Minecraft Dungeons:Vengeful Heart of Ender|Vengeful Heart of Ender]]{{Sound||D6 sfx mob finalFormMagicChimes-004.ogg}}, and relating to an [[MCD:Enderman|enderman]] {{sound||Sfx_mob_eventEnderman2D-001.ogg}}.
***Other sounds can be heard. In order of appearance, these are: flint and steel clicking {{sound||Flint_and_steel_click.ogg}}, a bat{{sound||Bat_idle4.ogg}}{{sound||Bat_takeoff.ogg}}{{sound||Bat_loop.ogg}}, lava bubbling{{sound||Lava.ogg}}, [[amethyst cluster]] breaking{{sound||Amethyst_Cluster_break1.ogg}}, a [[sculk shrieker]]{{sound||Sculk shrieker shriek1.ogg}}, stone{{sound||Stone_hit6.ogg}}{{sound||Stone_hit5.ogg}}{{sound||Stone_hit4.ogg}}, sand{{sound||Sand_hit1.ogg}}{{sound||Sand_hit5.ogg}}, a sculk shrieker{{sound||Sculk shrieker shriek1.ogg}} overlaying a warden{{sound||Warden_ambient1.ogg}}, [[sculk sensor]] clicking{{sound||Sculk Sensor sculk clicking2.ogg}}, and a [[warden]] roaring{{sound||Warden_roar5.ogg}}.

'''Redstone dust''' is a mineral that can transmit [[Redstone circuit#Power|redstone power]] as a wire when placed as a [[block]]. It is also used in [[crafting]] and [[brewing]].

== Obtaining ==
=== Mining ===
{{see also|Redstone Ore#Natural generation}}
[[Redstone ore]] mined using an iron [[pickaxe]] or higher drops 4 or 5 redstone dust (or more with [[Fortune]], averaging at 6 redstone dust with Fortune III). If mined with [[Silk Touch]], the block drops itself instead of redstone dust.

=== Natural generation ===
15 lengths of redstone dust are naturally generated as part of the trap in each [[jungle pyramid]]. 5 lengths of redstone dust can be found in one type of jail cell room in a [[woodland mansion]]. In [[Ancient City|ancient cities]], multiple pieces of redstone dust can be found integrated into circuitry.

=== Breaking ===
Redstone dust can be broken instantly using any tool, or without a tool, and drops itself as an item.

Redstone dust is removed and drops as an item if:
* its attachment block is moved, removed, or destroyed
* [[water]] or [[lava]] flows into its space
* a [[piston]] tries to push it or moves a block into its space

=== Mob loot ===
[[Witch]]es have a chance of dropping 0–2 redstone dust upon death. This is increased by 1 per level of [[Looting]], for a maximum of 0–5 redstone dust.

=== Chest loot ===
{{LootChestItem|redstone}}

=== Crafting ===
Redstone dust can be crafted from [[blocks of redstone]].
{{Crafting
|Block of Redstone
|Output=Redstone Dust,9
|type=Redstone
}}

=== Smelting ===
{{Smelting
|showname=1
|Redstone Ore; Deepslate Redstone Ore
|Redstone Dust
|0.7
}}

=== Trading ===
{{IN|java}}, novice-level cleric [[villager]]s sell two redstone dust for one [[emerald]].

{{IN|bedrock}}, novice-level cleric villagers sell four redstone dust for one emerald.

=== Villager gifts ===
{{see also|Tutorials/Raid farming}}
{{IN|Java}}, when the player has the [[Hero of the Village]] status effect, clerics might throw that player a redstone dust as a gift.

== Usage ==
Redstone dust is used for [[#Brewing ingredient|brewing]], [[#Crafting ingredient|crafting]], and in redstone circuits by placing it on the ground to create [[#Redstone component|redstone wire]]. It can also be used to power redstone components.

=== Brewing ingredient ===

=== Crafting ingredient ===
{{crafting usage|Redstone Dust}}

=== {{anchor|Redstone dust}} Redstone component ===
When placed in the world, redstone dust becomes a block of "redstone wire"{{Info needed|other blco? BE?}}, which can transmit [[Redstone circuit#Power|redstone power]].

=== Placement ===
[[File:Redstone wire as circuit component.png|Examples of redstone wire configuration. ''Top Left:'' Redstone wire connects diagonally vertically through non-opaque blocks. ''Top Right:'' Redstone wire does ''not'' connect diagonally vertically through opaque blocks. ''Center:'' Redstone wire gets darker as its power level drops, to a maximum of 15 blocks from a power source.|thumb]]
[[File:Redstone on Glowstone, Stairs, Slabs.png|Examples of redstone wire placements.|thumb]]
Redstone dust can be placed on [[opaque]] blocks as well as [[glowstone]], upside-down [[slab]]s, [[glass]], upside-down [[stairs]], and [[hopper]]s. It can also be placed on some transparent blocks; see [[Opacity/Placement]] for more information. It cannot be placed suspended in midair, even with commands, which is not unintentional.<ref>{{bug|MC-182709}}</ref>

Redstone wire configures itself to point toward adjacent redstone [[Redstone components#Power components|power components]] and [[Redstone components#Transmission components|transmission component]] connection points. Redstone wire also configures itself to point toward adjacent redstone wire one block higher or lower – unless there is a solid opaque block above the lower redstone wire.

If there is only one such adjacent redstone component, redstone wire configures itself into a {{BlockSprite|redstone-dust}} line pointing both at the neighbor and away from it. If there are two or more such adjacent components, redstone wire connects them in the form of {{BlockSprite|redstone-dust}}, {{BlockSprite|redstone-dust-upleft}}, {{BlockSprite|redstone-dust-t-up}}, or {{BlockSprite|redstone-dust-cross}} as needed.

When there are no adjacent components, a single redstone wire configures itself into a {{BlockSprite|redstone-dust-cross}} plus sign, which can provide power in all four directions. By right-clicking it can be changed into a {{BlockSprite|redstone-dust-dot}} dot, which does not provide power to any of the four directions.

{{IN|bedrock}}, redstone wire automatically configures itself to point toward adjacent blocks or [[Redstone components#Mechanism components|mechanism components]]. {{IN|java}}, it does not. If such a configuration is desired, the other neighbors of the redstone wire must be arranged to create it, i.e the redstone dust must be placed in a way that it would be pointed at the block’s location even if it were not there.

When redstone wire is reconfigured after placement, it does not update other redstone components around it of the change unless that reconfiguration also includes a change in power level or another component provides an update. This can create situations where a mechanism component remains activated when it shouldn't, or vice versa, until it receives an update from something else – a "feature" of redstone wire that can be used to make a [[BUD|block update detector]].

=== Behavior ===
{{Schematic|caption=

}}

Redstone wire can transmit power, which can be used to operate [[Redstone components#Mechanism components|mechanism components]] ([[door]]s, [[piston]]s, [[redstone lamp]]s, etc.).
Redstone wire can be "powered" by a number of methods:
* from an adjacent [[Redstone components#Power components|power component]] or a strongly-powered block
* from the output of a redstone repeater or redstone comparator
* from adjacent redstone wire. The powering dust can be a level higher or lower, but with restrictions:
** Redstone dust can be powered by redstone dust that is one level lower, or on an [[opaque]] block one level higher. A transparent block cannot{{only|java}} pass power downward.
** The block "between" the two dust blocks must be air or transparent. A solid block there "cuts" the connection between the higher and lower dust.

The "power level" of redstone dust can vary from 0 to 15. Most power components power-up adjacent redstone dust to power level 15, but a few ([[daylight sensor]]s, [[trapped chest]]s, and [[weighted pressure plate]]s) may create a lower power level. Redstone repeaters output power level 15 (when turned on), but [[redstone comparator]]s may output a lower power level.

{{Schematic | caption =

Redstone wire can transmit power up to 15 blocks.

 |rt-$!|rd-$ew!+15|rd-$ew!+14|rd-$ew!+13|rd-$ew!+12|rd-$ew!+11|rd-$ew!+10|rd-$ew!+9
 |rd-$ew!+8|rd-$ew!+7|rd-$ew!+6|rd-$ew!+5|rd-$ew!+4|rd-$ew!+3|rd-$ew!+2|rd-$ew!+1|rd-$ew+0

}}
Power level drops by 1 for every block of redstone wire it crosses. Thus, redstone wire can transmit power for no more than 15 blocks. To go further, the power level must be re-strengthened – typically with a redstone repeater.

Powered redstone wire on top of, or pointing at, an opaque block provides ''weak'' power to the block. A weakly-powered block cannot power other adjacent redstone wire, but can still power redstone repeaters and comparators, and activate adjacent mechanism components. Transparent blocks cannot be powered.

When redstone wire is unpowered, it appears dark red. When powered, it becomes bright red at power level 15, fading to darker shades with decreasing power. Powered redstone wire also produces "dust" [[particles]] of the same color.

While redstone wire always provides power to the directions it points into, it can still point into directions in which it cannot give power. If redstone wire comes in the form of a cross, the player can right-click to toggle it between a cross and dot. A redstone dot does not power anything adjacent to it, but powers the block under it.
