Rays Works – Cursed Piston in Survival! | 1.13-1.16 Minecraft

Hello there right here and today guys i’ma show you how you can make these weird double-headed pistons in survival now these aren’t curse blocks like the ones I’ve shown in the past which were more of a visual glitch these are actually physically here there’s actually a block right here as well as a

Block over here and if you guys haven’t already subscribe be sure to go ahead and do that as 75% of people that watch my videos are not subscribed and we’re getting really close to 75,000 subscribers now this is something strange that came about when I was working on the automatic floor placer

Video I had an observer clock I was going into the carpet duper and it was pulsing it back and forth guy like this I would accidentally did was put the piston in sideways so I was trying to remove this piston and put in a new one

And I was using that cool trick that showed where you can actually instantly replace blocks in mid-air by breaking and placing really fast like this I was trying to uh same thing to the piston to make the piston face this way so I was trying to break and place a new piston

There at the same time and this is what happened I got a piston head sticking out this side and a piston pulsing on this side over here and I can go ahead and turn off this clock and I can power this piston and now we got pissed a head over

Here and piston head over here and I’ll show you guys this is not actually a ghost block I can actually relock you can see that this a head air still here like they’re physically a piston head right here now this is a collab video with an example when the product members

He’s gonna make a separate video explaining how this works and why this is possible so you can refer to that video on his channel and he also has a lot of other cool videos so if you guys having a raved sure to subscribe to an example he also does a lot code digging

To to figure out why we have these strange behaviors in Minecraft now my video I’m gonna cover how you can do this as well as some cool uses for this and what are the possibilities of this type of piston now first thing you might notice is that when you remove power

From the side only one side actually retracts on this side here this side doesn’t retract now if you stick like a power source here update it anyway it doesn’t actually like vanish or break off this is like a stable piston head now when it comes to trying to do this

You want the piston to be moving back and forth anyone have the piston and quickly replaced with a new one so I’ll go ahead and go into survival and you can kind of see like this piston how it’s breaking when every time I move it kind of resets the breaking animation

They come on the front here where like the piston head is I also notice that if you try to break it every time I moves the breaking animation also gets reset so it’s kind of hard to do in survival and this is because this piston over time it goes to

Block 36 it’s actually an invisible block so let me actually show you so this would be your normal piston and there’s actually a block 360 you can use a setblock command to illustrate what it would look like so it’s called moving piston and this block actually exists in

Survival as well and essentially the block is right here and you can’t place any blocks here because there it’s a block there it doesn’t have any texture you can walk through it you can’t interact with it anyway like you can bump into it and this is the block that

The piston actually goes into for our short period of time so between the piston being closed and the piston being opened it goes through this divisible stage and this is why when you try to break it in survival every time you started to kind of make some cracks on

It it goes invisible and you end up clicking on the block below it and trying to make cracks on that that will reset the cracks on this one I think I’ve moved over to a different belong so way break us make sure not actually facing any other block when it goes

Invisible so if I stand like here kind of facing upwards you see I can make cracks in it without learning about them resetting so you can do this a couple different ways you can just have air below it so that you can sit like here

And break it so if I face downwards you see I’m actually able to break the piston off without it constantly resetting the hard part comes in placing in the next piston because essentially you want to place that piston in during the stage when it’s moving if you place

In this stage it’s no good because it doesn’t have a head sticking out if you place in this stage the piston head will see that there’s no base and it will pop off as well you kind of have to do it right as this moving so if I would like

Trying to place this and break it and replace it you see it doesn’t work and while that’s hard is because when you’re breaking this you can’t be facing any block otherwise the reset the taking damage but you kind of need to be facing another block in order to place

In another piston but it’s possible to do that trick that I showed you guys the last time were the instant swapping block breaking trick to place in the block as soon as it is removed without actually having anything to place it up against so you have to be pretty fast at

Placing the block so I’m going to break it as soon as possible to actually place in a piston in the exact same spot without actually click on anything behind it there was nothing down here that was a clicking on we won’t always get a double-headed piston so it can be

Really tricky but there’s actually a much easier way of doing it and this is by using two players so if I would put a piston in this direction right here and then we use my alt account not my alt account right here will be put into

Survival mode and I’m just going to be clicking straight ahead of me and I’m gonna use the f3 + T trick so if I hold down right click then press f3 + T when this screen comes up I’ll release my right-click button on this account and now he’s trying to place the piston

There and I’ll switch back to my main account all I have to do with this one is break it both of them are in survival mode and there you go pretty simple to do with two accounts as soon as I broke that piston he went ahead and instantly

Put in this piston and now you can see that’s the one getting powered now now you come in here and remove the power source if you want to you can apart both of them and you can button on by putting a block up here then removing this removing that and now they’re both

Butted in the extended state now the difference you can see is with the base here it’s supposed to be squared but there’s a little bit taken off of this side and that is where this piston head is supposed to go into we’re on this side there isn’t that little indent you

Can see the piston head is directly connected to the side here now in piston head is extended there is an extra little piece that they add on to this block so if I highlight this block here you can see it actually goes into the next block so normally everything in a

Block so most blocks stay within their little 1 by 1 meter area but you can see how this piece right here actually extends over into this side over here if I go ahead and set block in a piston head piston head put it right here you can see this little piece that extends

Is that you extending into the next block over and I’ve shown this in the past and some really cool things you can do it you got to make a wither cage using this too as it extends over into another block so you can contain the wither without the wither able to

Destroy the original source of the block it also has a very unique collision as I sticks out in our block it will prevent things from like moving over there which is exactly the same as like a college ring this is a world where I have all the different types of block sizes so

These are all on the side and these are all up and down so you can see the piston head right here as well and this little extension which is shown right here is the same as like the snow layers and even this bottom piece of piston and other things that College drains and

Anvils but this world is really useful as it has all the different blocks also have all the different entities but there’s some bug in this version where entities vanish so some of them are missing so you might wonder if you can actually get more than two heads it’s

Currently go ahead over here we got this piston which is moving back and forth the wrists room to put another piston like over here so if I would come in here and break it place in another piston you notice how this head over here is removed this is because the head

Is stationary and it’s always checking for a base back here and when you break it and notices that the base is missing and it will pop off for this piston head which is moving back and forth doesn’t recognize the base is there because it’s not checking it while it’s in this kind

Of invisible stage between these two stages here so if this piston head over here was moving back and forth it would be possible to put in another base without it updating but at the moment you can see that whenever we try to replace it the piston updates and of

Course if you don’t place it at the right moment then the piston will also break off its head you’re only able to break it when it’s actually doing that moving you can do some pretty strange stuff like this here we have one coming up and one coming out the side maybe you

Can use this for some kind of aesthetic thing and looks like a mushroom sprouting out the top but does this fits a head and actually pull anything so I put like a block here and remove this it’s can move this one inward again this was actually going to change now even if

I break this here it’s not going to like retract anything and pull this downwards you can do this in any direction you want so you can do like one piston up words and then come in and another piston downwards and yeah it looks pretty strange I mean especially if you

Wouldn’t stop this bottom piston and then maybe you could come in here and kind of cover this piston up like that and then you could come in and power this piston let’s see if you had something this maybe and a lever like a really fool your friends especially if

You had like other stuff removed from here so that they know you don’t have any other piston like you can hear the piston but this one’s obviously not moving now you can’t hardly even notice that this one is the fake piss on top there’s a slight difference in the base

So like this base here would be actually shorter see how it’s shorter but unless you have a side by side you really just don’t recognize it looks looks like a normal piston doesn’t it I mean if you had like tweeze piston side by side be like what the heck’s going on here

You’ve got a tall piston and a short piston that’s a really good one we got put this one in the project zoo now the ones that are 45 degrees to each other are pretty cool-looking as well and of course you can come in and bud it just

Like snow that one looks pretty strange just because of how close this is on the edge here but I love the back-to-back ones because it’s clearly you can see both sides it’s pretty obviously that something’s strange going on here now so far I just showed you guys sticky

Pistons but you can also do this with normal pistons as well you put in the piston here and the source and you can come in and switch it up with another one I have a double normal headed piston now you can actually do this with sticky

And normal if I do a normal one and a sticky one you can see we’ve still got a normal one on this side and on this side we will still have the sticky so if you really wanted to make some odd looking display cases do this now you can also

Come in and put the piston in the exact same location and direction as the previous one so this one’s extending towards me and if I break and replace this one you can see what happens we get pissed a head that is extended that’s stuck into a piston that is not extended very strange-looking

Definitely something to show it to your friends as well as your favorite minecrafters now back here this pulse is still going it’s still trying part of this but it can’t actually power it so this is kind of same circumstance is if there is a piston head that is extended and you’re trying

To push another piston into that so this head is trying to push into this head and this block is immovable same things going on right here this piston is trying to push into this head but this is an immovable block so even if I would

Stick like a piston over here and try to power this it’s in movable now you could come in here and place in a piston like right here and you could power it it’s going to move this because this is movable this isn’t movable so watch this you can

See how once piston is removed the head will update now you can also do this with normal Pistons so there’s your normal piston there and you can put in another one looks kind of clean any calls to do two different types so you can do a normal piston and

A sticky piston now if you come in here and break this head here the way that the game kind of does is checking it’s going to break the head and also break any base that’s connected to it technically it thinks this is connected to this so if I would break this head

Here you see it also breaks the base over there but if you do this in survival it’s kind of different if you break this you see it doesn’t actually break this over here so there’s kind of difference between breaking and creative and breaking it in survival now you

Might wonder what happens if I quickly shove in another piston so this piston is going to push this one over here and this one’s going to push over here let’s go put a power source in that one and update it you can see it is possible to

Shove a piston very quickly over here and it won’t update this head here and that’s by putting this lever on top of the piston and the way that works is because the power source goes to the piston when you flick it and then immediately pops off so there’s no power

Source there so that retracts so you can watch the lever update pop out very quickly and you see I switched out this one with a sticky one now as long as there’s some type of piston back here this won’t pop off now even by doing this switching you’re not able to get

More than two heads because that here is stationary and all we’re doing is moving in one piston so even if we put like the piston in this direction we’re still just adding in one piston and we’re not ending up with like more heads or anything like that a lot of weird stuff

You can do with these piston tricks if you have any ideas you want me to test let me know down in the comments I really had a lot of fun messing around with this I hope you guys really enjoy this video if he guys did make sure to share

With other minecrafters so they can learn about it as well I don’t like thank you guys watching I’ll see you guys the next one and if you quickly break and replace this one bye bye
