Now i think it goes without saying that i really like weird redstone contraptions and i got to admit i come up with a lot of really weird redstone ideas that never actually make their way into videos just because i don’t think they’d work as a standalone redstone contraption having his own dedicated Video so i was thinking today wouldn’t it be fun if i just compiled a few of my weird redstone ideas into one redstone video and call it me building weird redstone ideas let’s see how well this works now my first weird redstone idea is a shape-shifting piston door so this is a Door that you can hit a button and you can change the design of the door that’s in front of you so maybe you have your stairs set up like this and then you go actually you know what i’m not feeling that anymore so you want to flip it around so that the stairs Are like this and we would be able to do that with the press of a button then you maybe want a different design then a different design you can just kind of mix and match this is going to be interesting now i gotta say already i’ve had to reduce the Complexity of my original idea a little bit and i’ll get onto that once i start to explain how this thing is going to function but i have to say this is yeah this is gonna be a bit of a pain in the backside to construct i kind of i hadn’t thought through how Complex this contraption could actually end up being now the idea the idea of this circuit right here is quite simple it is that it picks up those blocks and then deposits them on the other side and then it all retracts away but as you can see there are just there’s just a tiniest Little problem that i’m having but it’s super super frustrating and as this thing is just spiraling out of control when it comes to its size i think once we get this done just literally the flipping of the blocks then it should be absolutely fine and to think when i came Up with this idea i was not only going to have one of these happening horizontally so we could flip it in this direction but i also wanted to have one that flipped it vertically as well but as far as i could tell that was physically impossible although i’m sure Some of you smart guys out there will be able to work that one out and yes i think i might have pulled it off with just a simple change of the timings up at the top here from four ticks to three ticks now this block stays out the way of that Observer there which means that these sticky pistons don’t actually get powered on the way back which means that this part of the system is now actually working which is brilliant now i’m hoping that when i hit this button up here we should see these blocks flip around I i can’t remember what order i placed them in so let’s try that out again seriously i’m suffering from is this working i literally as soon as it happens i forget what color the blocks were originally but i feel like something is changing that blue’s on the left And now yellow is on the left okay so they are actually flipping around so now we see if it works as an actual door we flick the lever that opens everything up so you can walk through we fully leave it again that closes it we hit the button oh my word Ah yeah i don’t know what that noise was either anyway let’s try this out one more time and that is a tiny bit more promising so there we go we have changed the shape of the piston door the only thing is is that the gaps down the side They aren’t exactly pretty in this formation here so i’ve come up with a potentially ridiculous idea to sort this out i mean this is a weird redstone ideas video i suppose now what we have down at the bottom here are double piston extenders with concrete powder on top of them that Push up the concrete powder to hide away all of those ugly pistons then when we want the redstone to work they drop down all of the pistons can do their thing then once they finish doing their thing they in theory pop back up and hide away everything ugly and that should now be Done we have got we’ve got a lot of redstone lying around you can see i’ve been making a lot of modifications but also we’ve got some pulse extenders i’ve put some timing circuits in there there’s a lot of bits going on here but it should now all be functioning so if We hit this button then that should flip our piston door around and we have a slightly different design that’s all looking good and if we just peer through here okay let’s flip it back around and that is all looking correct and then eventually all of our concrete powder Should pop up okay that’s looking lovely now if you want to open our piston door good stuff and there we go this thing actually functions and has made itself prettier than it was beforehand i’m proud of this right let’s move on i was messing around with dispensers and fire charges the other Day and i discovered something strange i think you could safely say now this actually looks a little bit different to what was happening when i was doing it it kind of had a smoother arc but i mean i think it illustrates what i’m talking about quite nicely now i wonder So if i was to place blocks up like this i imagine it probably doesn’t go past them right no okay so it crashes into it there okay there we go that’s a little bit more like it now we can actually see what’s going on so our fire charge travels through and I’m just trying to work out roughly where we’d have to put this thing now this wasn’t my original intention but are we able to bounce it back down like can we bounce fire charges around endlessly or do they reach a point where they they kind of stop doing that sort Of bouncy stuff all right let’s give it a go ah that looked like it that looked like it wanted to work really no it looks like you can’t actually do that i wonder if we just we have one more last ditch effort here okay so we’re gonna go extra repeater of delay We’re gonna go for four ticks it’s getting dark but i don’t care here goes let’s try this man that’s so disappointing whoa yes you can do it but only very occasionally [Laughter] Oh there it is that is spectacular that is the coolest thing ever oh my word it’s getting reliable look i’m creating a line here oh man they’re always hitting the same point so i wonder if we how many slime blocks is that i’m sure that’s enough i’m sure it Just relies on the fact that yeah those slime blocks those extra slime blocks i think we could be on to something here if i put a few extra ones on here and then place in some movable objects it doesn’t really add too much the reliability unfortunately but i mean it does function very Occasionally so i wonder if we could bounce it twice and can i just say my original plan was to build some form of trap with this game mechanic but this is far more entertaining this is a very tricky thing to test because the fire charge rarely makes it to our next platform And when it does it then really moves on but that was close right let’s try changing up some of the timings maybe oh my word we are so close we are so close but i don’t know if it will bounce three times oh i just so want this to work i so want It to work i’ve been watching this now for probably about 15 minutes and you know we get some pretty close calls you can see that sometimes it really looks like it’s going to do it but it doesn’t look like it doesn’t look like it does which is so disappointing That i actually i’m going to move on from fire charge i i get excited every single time every single time i think it’s going to work right we’re moving on i don’t like this anymore it just gets my hopes up way too much the presence of these fires over here though Is very interesting because they are they’re probably about 300 blocks away from where we built this thing so maybe even though we we can’t see it it does actually function anyway we’re actually moving on now on to something that’s actually been fairly well requested on my youtube channel which is A diagonal flying machine now i want to make this vertical so it kind of goes upwards like this and i kind of want it to look like a staircase so it’s like a never-ending staircase that you kind of ride on i don’t know if that makes any sense but Yeah i don’t even really know where to begin with this one so you want it to go across by a block and then up by a block and then across by blocking the nut by block i imagine it’s going to be quite simple but you never know i can’t think this through I’ve been saying here blankly looking at the screen for about half an hour really i can’t think it through at all i’ve been playing way too much minecraft today ah it’s not going well it’s not good at all okay i i’ve made one step one step i have managed to create which is Oh gosh many hours later here we are on a very seized and very broken totally not functioning diagonal flying machine yeah though i i ah just the reason that this is so difficult okay is that every single extra component you add adds an extra layer of complexity because it’s another Thing that you need to move diagonally and that just makes life so challenging i don’t understand how to do it i really don’t and i’ve been at this for hours and it’s frustrating me and it’s driving me around the bend that i can’t actually do it so please to those of you out There who are very good at building slime flying machines just build one and show me how to do it because otherwise i won’t be able to sleep for the next couple months okay i think that’s going to wrap things up for today’s weird redstone video it’s Been a lot of fun just goofing around with different concepts and things and i think it’s something i’m going to do again in the future but anyway i hope you enjoyed if you did please also that like button and if you really loved it then make sure to subscribe but thanks For watching guys this has been mumbo and i’m out i’ll see you later You Video Information
