In our Minercraft Mod Club, we are starting a brand new mod series called 'Redstone Contraptions'. This series will focus on fun and practical mods; we will be creating Minecraft friendly machines which use redstone to operate them.
In this mod, we are using redstone to create our very own automatic door. This door is operated by the player standing on the pressure plates - just like the ones you see in the supermarkets! This mod uses 4 different functions; one which creates the base, one which installs the pistons, one which adds the redstone and finally one that places the pressure plates.
All functions are called simultaneously through our chat command to create our automatic door. You can easily mod this code to make it your own - try swapping out the birch wood planks block for something fun and colourful like the terracotta blocks! Or you can make the door smaller or larger by adjusting all the coordinates so it can fit into any space.
This mod is a great addition to add to any of your custom buildings in your Minecraft World.
Send us a picture through the blue chat bubble to show off how you used this redstone door in your own Minecraft builds!
Until next time, happy building everyone!
