Item Detector Add-on for Minecraft

A Bedrock add-on that detects item counts in nearby containers and activates redstone output when your rules match.

Item Detector

Item Detector is a Minecraft Bedrock add-on that helps players build smarter redstone systems by detecting specific item counts inside nearby containers. Place the Item Detector beside a chest, barrel, hopper, or other container, then use its in-game menu to set detection rules. When the container matches the saved rules, the detector activates and creates a redstone output.

Features

• Adds a new Item Detector block.
• Detects items in nearby chests, barrels, hoppers, and other containers.
• Includes an in-game rule editor.
• Supports multiple item rules.
• Supports counts above 64 using duplicate rules.
• Automatically checks the container every 30 ticks.
• Changes texture when active.
• Creates redstone output when the rules match.

How To Use

1. Import the Resource Pack first.
2. Import the Behavior Pack second.
3. Activate both packs in your world.
4. Enable Beta APIs if your world settings require it.
5. Get the detector with:

   /give @s adit:item_detector

Place the detector directly beside a container. Leave the block above the detector empty. Use/right-click the detector to open the rule GUI. Enter rules using this format:

minecraft:item_id|count

Example rules

minecraft:diamond|64
minecraft:diamond|64;minecraft:redstone|32;minecraft:iron_ingot|16

Duplicate rules add together. For example:

minecraft:diamond|64;minecraft:diamond|64

requires 128 diamonds total.

Redstone Output

When the rules match, the detector places a redstone block above itself. When the rules stop matching, it removes the redstone block it created.

Known Limitation

Minecraft Bedrock custom blocks do not safely support native redstone output on every version yet, so this add-on uses a redstone block output method for compatibility.
