As a bedrock Redstoner, you also have my respect. That's a dang fine door. Bedrock has so many issues that I'd love to see fixed, but we've got some pretty cool stuff too. Have you heard of soft torch inversion through pistons? It's pretty wild stuff.

[@Porkey_Minch]

What's soft torch inversion through pistons?

[@paulclous7109]

if a redstone torch is placed on a piston, it will turn off when the piston is powered, even if it is powered trough a block (softly) and not directly (strongly), unlike other blocks. Its a it more complicated actually but basically thats it (you can test it out if you have minecraft bedrock). 😁

My only major problem with bedrock redstone is that it's so slow. And of course the randomness, but those are kinda related. The simple 2-4-0 extender doesn't work, it needs to be 3-6-0, which makes every thing bigger. Everything else is just different, not necessarily bad

Pistons are slower, but torches and comparators are faster. Computational redstone is often faster/smaller in bedrock than in Java.

[@Piman1607]

I play bedrock frequently, and use redstone. I get why the redstone is the way it is. Its a lot more "friendly" as its rules are a lot more straight forward. Where as java uses a lot of unintended mechanics and quirks that arent really straight forward at first. I honestly think the wierdest part is that the two systems are so vastly different at all. That to me is such a weird choice but whatever.

[@tuopi27]

if i were the one reworking the redstone system, i would probably take most of the mechanics from bedrock, and sprinkle in a few useful things from java. quasi-connectivity is weird and unnecesary. redstone not directing into certain blocks is annoying and being unable to place redstone directly on pistons is absurd. block spitting can stay, tho. thats really useful.

[@amberfox21]

the reason it is that way is because of how java redstone evolved and was created, when making the bedrock redstone system they were able to create it from scratch, but the java redstone system was full of bugs and stuff that became so widely used, that they were just accepted as features, like how the door opening activation code was initially reused for when pistons were added, so the game thinks pistons are a 2 block tall block on the Redstone side of things. Its things like that where developers were able to avoid the left over jank from when java was being developed in its earlier stages. It made bedrock follow the obvious rules more straight out the gate compared to java.

This was fun. As a Bedrock player, and professional programmer, I have to point out that the differences in redstone come down to bugs in Java. Quasi-comnectivity and one tick block dropping aren't intended functionality. Just helpful bugs. 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@kikivoorburg]

I think it's a bit unreasonable to consider them "bugs" at this point. The creeper was originally a failed attempt at a pig, but it's become so iconic that it's not really a bug anymore. Specifically, calling them "bugs" implies the inevitable "solution" is to "fix" them. But just as "fixing" the creeper by removing it would lose a lot of minecraft's character, the same goes for QC and block-dropping. They are a bit "weird", yes, but they provide so much flexibility in redstone that they should not really be considered bugs anymore in my opinion. The fact that most hard-core redstoners work in Java (despite the majority of players using Bedrock) is a testament to that, I'd say.

[@phrebh]

@kikivoorburg An unfixed bug is still a bug. The creeper body shape came about from a bug, but that was a visual thing that was then fleshed out into what it is now. Totally different.

[@connectivity_issue]

@@phrebh what about something like terraria's hoiks? sure it started as a bug, but the devs certainly intended to keep it, seeing as they both officially endorsed it and actively make sure they dont accidentally patch it out. i know its a different game but it feels appropriate for the topic of when a bug stops being a bug

[@phrebh]

@connectivity_issue What about the fact that Bedrock redstone doesn't behave that way? Its code base was created later, and while bugs pop up all the time in Bedrock, there's been no hint of adding those two. You can nitpick and play "what about" all day long.
