How to make a piston STOP.

Archive: 5 posts


I ran into this problem when making my transforming house. If you have ever wanted to make a piston go from its minimum length to its max. length and STOP at its max. length this is how. I know for a fact after multiple tests this works FOR SURE.
EDIT: THIS DOES NOT WORK SOMETHING WENT WRONG IN THE TEST I AM GOING TO TRY AND WORK OUT THE BUGS HELP IS APPRECIATED!!!

First have what ever sensor you want preferably player, button, or two-way switch wired to a NOT gate that has an inverted output.
Then wire the not gate to a piston with the following settings

Stiff: Yes
Strength: 100%
Flipper: No
Reversed: Yes
Input Action: Single Cycle
Then have the sensor after it is switched on destroy itself this can be accomplished by placing a destroyer on the button or swtich and wire the switch or button to the destroyer

TO ACCOMPLISH THIS STEP BY USING A PLAYER SENSOR READ HERE

place the player sensor on a piece of invisible hologram or hidden dissolve material.

wire the player sensor to the not gate same as before.

wire the player sensor to the dissolve if on dissolve BE SURE THE PLAYER SENSOR IS ON THE DISSOLVE MATERIAL

if on hologram place a destoryer on hologram and wire the player sensor to the destoyer



Hope this helps anyone who needs it,

Is there a reason you can't use the directional setting on the piston?2012-10-07 13:10:00

What's the point of that? A NOT gate with an inverted output will do nothing. It'll just stand there and be a triangle.

Just use a "Toggle" switch, connected to the piston with the setting "Forward/Backward". Connect a button the "Toggle" switch and place a destroyer on it to get destroyed when activated and change the state of the "Toggle" switch.2012-10-07 15:23:00
