Amethyst Overload
The author built this one for Minecraft 1.20.1 on Forge. On other versions it may install and then do nothing.
About the mod
Amethyst Overload is a mod that adds various blocks related to amethyst
Amethyst is an amazing decorating material but vanilla minecraft lacks the diversity that this mod is aiming to achieve
Features
Redstone update:
Two blocks have been added!
- Amethyst Lamp
- Amethyst Sensor
Amethyst lamp is self-explanatory, here it is ingame:
But the main block of the update is of course the Amethyst sensor, so what does it do?
Sensor is constantly scanning two blocks above it for any entity, and outputs a signal when it detects one.
But it would be a bad version of a pressure plate if it was this plain, so the sensor detects entities through blocks!
We are thrilled to see what contraptions you can build with this one!
