Minecraft:Button

File:All Buttons.png

All buttons currently in the game.

A button is a non-solid block that produces a temporary Minecraft:redstone signal and powers its attached block when pressed by a player or a wind charge. The material a button is made of affects how long it remains pressed and whether it can be pressed by other means.

Obtaining

Crafting

The crafting recipe is the same for all types and variants of buttons, using a single matching plank, stone, or polished blackstone block to craft the matching button.

Natural generation

Oak buttons can generate inside trial chambers between dispensers with random surprises or loots. Template:IN, stone buttons can generate inside strongholds next to iron doors. Jungle buttons generate naturally on house walls in desert villages. Stone buttons can also generate in desert villages, in armorer houses attached to Minecraft:granite.

Usage

Redstone power

Template:See also A button can be used as a monostable power source (it automatically deactivates shortly after being activated).

A stone button stays on for 20 Minecraft:ticks (1 second), while a wooden button stays on for 30 ticks (1.5 seconds).

Placement

Buttons can be Template:Control by Template:Control it on a surface.

They can be attached to the side, bottom and top of any full opaque block.

Behavior

Buttons are usually in an inactive state, but can be temporarily activated by players. A button can be activated by Template:Control it.

While active, a button:

• powers any adjacent redstone dust to power level 15, including beneath the button (if the button attaches to a vertical surface, or to the bottom of a block)
• powers any adjacent redstone comparators or redstone repeaters facing away from the button to power level 15.
• strongly powers its attachment block to power level 15.
• powers the block of air that it occupies, which in turn is able to power any adjacent redstone components, seemingly sending its power through the air.
• activates any adjacent mechanism components, including above or below, such as Minecraft:pistons, redstone lamps, etc.

When a button changes state it provides a redstone update to all redstone components adjacent to itself (including above and below), and to all redstone components adjacent to its attachment block.

Breaking

A button is removed and drops as an item if:

• its attachment block is moved, removed, or destroyed.
• Minecraft:water or Minecraft:lava flows into its space.Template:Only
• a Minecraft:piston tries to push it or moves a block into its space.
