Block Sensor

The Block Sensor is a detector for blocks, It does not need fuel and it outputs a Redstone-Signals.

Crafting


Components: 7x Cobblestone1x Redstone Dust1x Emerald

Function
The Block is rotatable (you can use the Malleus), it checks for blocks in the direction of the Emerald side (green dot).

The GUI has 3 sections. The first is the "Blocklist", here you can specify which blocktypes should be detected. For example if you place a Brick in a slot the machine will only react if Brick on the specific position.

Note: If the "Blocklist" empty the Block Sensor react on ervery block at the position!

Using the "Switch" you can choose between:

Left: Redstone-Signal if the block have not detected a (listed) block.

Right: Redstone-Signal if the block have detected a (listed) block.

The red arrows in "Distance"-Section allows you to choose one specific position, which will be observed.

The number rigth from the arrows shows in which distance this block is away from the Block Sensor (from the side with emerald)

Note: The the lowest distace is 1(next to the machine) and the highest is 10!

Example
This adjustment means:

Check at the the position 2 blocks above (caused by rotation of the Block Sensor) the machine and ouput a Redstone-Signal if there are any Oak Wood Planks.

In "Example 1" the correct Block (Oak Wood Planks) is at the position (2 blocks above), so the Blocksensor outputs a Redstone-Signal.

In "Example 2" the incorrect Block (Crafting Table) is at the position (2 blocks above), so the Blocksensor doesn't output a Redstone-Signal.
