so i was wachting hermitcraft docm77 vidioe the beacon part normaly on a minecraft server that system would break most of the time becouse is was unloaded while pistons where firering or other things so my sugestion is a simular block that would basicly give a signal 1 minut or 2 before a restart if the chunks are loaded alows to farm to shut down and when the chunks get loaded again gives a signal to turn the farm on again maybe it would be cool to make it a tokens reward so u cant just spam them efry where in the vidioe they used a depowered redstone block texture i dont know how this can be achieved on emc maybe a dayligt detector or somting
Less to do with whether 'we', EMC, does or doesn't code custom blocks. Restarts can be unpredictable in a way that make obsolete the usefulness of any such block. You can't predict all times when an area unloads. On top of that, I don't see any practical way to implement your suggestion.
how are restarts unpredictable? If you mean the server restart might be off by a couple seconds, the block daanhu is suggesting gets around this by sending the signal at the first warning of a restart, so it has time to properly send a signal. Also, it’s not about protecting it from all unloads, just server restarts.
yea more like a extra fail save that would be nice and the like restarts will give like a warning infront rigt
How are regular unloads different than server restarts? I don't understand the use case of this. Regardless, this seems like it would be a waste of my time to develop compared to literally anything else. I can't dedicate time towards something I see as useless.
