Minecraft v1.5 “The Redstone update” coming to PC soon.
The PC version of Minecraft will soon be getting a big update to the way redstone behaves. Mojang are updating the system to have a variable signal strength which they are calling 'Analogue' and the inclusion of a new block type – The Capacitor, which must be created from newly added nether components. Mojang also promise that redstone will become more reliable and more predictable.
The Capacitor will be placed and used much like the redstone repeaters currently are, with a single input and single output. But the main difference is that the capacitor will only activate once the redstone signal strength has reached a certain level that has been configured by the by the player.
Bergensten of Mojang gave audience members an example of how this new signal strength could be used: By combining weighted pressure plates, detector rails and capacitors players could create an automated rail and loading system.
The mine cart system will be seeing its own updates too, planned features included new track to unload hitch-hikers like pigs, new systems for filling and emptying chests and the ability to use furnace carts to pull a series a link carts like a steam engine.
Finally Bergensten also hinted at a future update for a new pretty looking dimension that appears once players have killed the end game boss, as well as bags for saddled pigs, a new combat system, better snow biome, fixed lighting around trees and an updated client to make better use of the performance on newer systems.
It all sounds good to us here at The Tech Game, what do you think?
