MovePlates
MovePlates is a transport, logic and automatization datapack.
It changes recipes for birch and oak trapdoors, giving them new functions:
- Birch trapdoor - Moves entities above it in the direction it is facing. - Oak trapdoor - Stops entities above it.
The entities trapdoors affect include items, mobs, minecarts, boats, etc. EXCEPT players.
Default behaviour of a trapdoor can be altered with special modifier blocks, which enables you to create very complex networks! To do this, place said modificator block under the trapdoor.
- Brewing stand - *Elevates* the entity, that is, teleports it 2 blocks up. - Brewing stand - *Lowers* the entity, that is, teleports it 2 blocks down. - Brewing stand - Acts as a conveyor belt splitter; - If the trapdoor above is powered by redstone then it *lowers* entities, otherwise does nothing. - Brewing stand - Extracts items from an inventory below itself onto the trapdoor; - Does not extract passively; Must be triggered by an entity above! - *Technical note: an inventory is defined as a tile entity with `Items` NBT array, meaning such blocks as lectern and brewing stand will also work.* - Brewing stand - It is unique in a way that it has to be placed Brewing stand; - Similarly to the emerald block modifier, extracts items onto the trapdoor, but from the hopper itself; - The hopper has to be facing down and not be locked by redstone; - Must be triggered by an entity under it in order to extract items! - Brewing stand - Allows for integration of the trapdoor network with redstone; - Fires repeatedly while an entity passes over its trapdoor; - Does not have to face the trapdoor, can face in any direction, even upside down. - Brewing stand - Gives temporary effects to entities; -
The effect applied depends on the kind of potions inside;
- Leaping - causes entities to accelerate up very high; - Slow falling - removes gravity from entities;
- Does not consume potions; - Potion strength is taken into account; - Might be harder to setup in survival, but the effects it gives are rewarding.
Hints / Ideas
- Oak trapdoor can be used as a depot for items. Place a hopper underneath for profit! - Oak trapdoor has ability to stop mobs, and can be used for mob traps similarly to vanilla boat method. - You can use different potion types inside a brewing stand, and their effects will combine.
