Drop power collector (update)

(1/5) > >>

rytovius:
I came up with an Idea of a lag free timer using  repeters. You put a torch for a second then remove it. It then sends current through the repeters. Right after you place the torch you put regular redstone in its place, making an infanate loop. next you place an output and connect it to what ever you want.  I have an example at /home rytovius. Spamarian belives it is ok but I would like to make sure with an op.

OK so I made a item drop power collector as i like to call it. What it does is dispenses a block like dirt. the dirt hits a pressure plate sending power to a redstone torch which turns off power to redstone wiring. when the dirt despawns a power source is created and another dirt is dispensed. Since despawning only works when your in that chunk it does not go when someone is not their. I asked 3 operators if it is ok, xeadin, awesomealicia, and wratkie. xeadin says he thinks it is fine. wratkie says as long as I dont use it for a trap :). But awesomealicia says no timers allowed at all. But i think this more as like a BUD switch which is allowed. So I would like to know If it is allowed. I took it down because awesomealicia said, so. Can the operators vote or something to decide if it is allowed or not?

That is a normal timer.

Kascas:
if been told my multiple including admin, that the regular timer your talking about is not allowed  :D
why do you think you need to get my melons with a button  ;)

as we are always trying to get things done in another way, alot of us searched for alternatives to the regular timer

these guys use one, im not sure if this is allowed tho, so for now il stick with a button

SalasCraft:
I believe that works the same as a normal timer, in fact it's just the same.

I suggest you remove it.

I made a new timer It deals with dispawning items, so every 5 minutes it sends out a signal. I plan to have multiple so its more like every minute.
