A '''six-sided piston''' was an extreme metadata variant of the [[Minecraft:piston]]. It could be used as [[Minecraft:update suppression]] agents.
[[File:Six-sided piston BE.png|thumb|Six-sided piston {{in|pe}}]]

== Obtaining ==
=== Breaking ===
Six-sided pistons can be broken in the same way normal pistons can. They cannot be obtained as an item, instead dropping normal pistons.
{{breaking row|horizontal=1|Six-sided Piston|Pickaxe|sprite=all pistons}}

=== BUD piston method ===
Six-sided pistons of metadata value 7 could be created if a placed piston updates a BUD-powered piston, such that it pushes or pulls the placed piston.

=== Block transmutation ===
Multiple [[Minecraft:mcdf:Java Edition:Block Transmutation|block transmutation methods]] can be used to create Six-sided Pistons {{in|JE}}. From Beta 1.7.2 to Beta 1.9 Prerelease 5, Six-sided Pistons can be created using moving piston merge transmutation, from Beta 1.7.3 to 1.2.3, can be created using water transmutation, and from 13w36a-1 to 1.7.5 and 14w02a to 14w11b, can be created using arrow transmutation.

=== <samp>/setblock</samp> and <samp>/fill</samp> method ===
Six-sided pistons can be obtainable using the {{cmd|setblock}} and {{cmd|fill}} command. (e.g <code>/setblock ~ ~ ~ piston (or sticky_piston) metadata value beyond 6</code>){{more info}}

== Usage ==
=== Update suppression ===
When powered, six-sided pistons of metadata 6 immediately crash the game. This game crash happens so quick that block updates are not processed correctly, and this can allow for otherwise-impossible arrangements of blocks to be achieved.

Every time the six-sided pistons is updated while receiving power, the game crashes again, so having it be in a position where it receives constant updates is not recommended due to effectively softlocking the world. Depowering the six-sided pistons should make it safe again. This has a possibility of corrupting singleplayer worlds, and it is much safer to perform this on a hosted server.

Analysis of the behavior of metadata 6 six-sided pistons using 1.7 releases and 1.8 snapshots suggests that they remain at data value 6 permanently, even upon loading a world, as opposed to converting to data value 14 - if they do indeed convert, this conversion is not saved.

== History ==
