Anyone good with Redstone and could help me?

  1. Hey guys,

    I have a clock setup that moves pistons... But the pistons do not stay up long enough for what I want. Is there anything that I can do to delay the pistons going back down for a few more seconds?

    Thanks
  2. I and help, just tell me what server. :)

  4. On my way
  5. You want a monostable circuit. You can find it in this thread, as well as all your other redstone needs.
  6. or simpler:

    Piston
    l
    L_____
    Rep....... Rep
    l............ Rep
    l ............Rep
    L______
    l
    Button

    Rep = Repeater (all in same direction)
    l L _ = Redstone
    . = blanks disapeared in post

    The signal will reach the Piston in 1 tick (1 repeater on the left) if the Button is off again the right repeaters will turn off after the number of ticks you choose, storing the signal for a time.
  7. That's not intelligible at all. I'd recommend posting a screenshot of whatever you're trying to convey.

    @CallMeTom:
    Do you have a solution yet?
    I figured I would post a picture from the circuit I recommended:


    By placing more repeaters along the line on the top and right, you can lengthen the signal as much as you wish.
    nmanley and vividOptimism like this.
  8. Thanks for your input guys,

    I've found a solution with the help of Terr.

    Instead of trying to turn the piston 'on' for 'x amount of time' I have reversed it and it put a Redstone torch in the system to make the piston always 'on' and got the clock to turn the piston 'off'.
  9. @Annih: I can't log into MC since noon :( Otherwise I would have posted a picture.
