5 Must Have Minecraft Sculk Machines!

[@asgarion9938]

Remember you can also dampen the sensor's clicking by water logging them! This create a smoother experience in general when using contraptions and doesn't affect their capability

[@outcast4087]

Waterlogging every single sculk sensor (not just the one in the trap) will make all these contraptions even cooler! As for the favourite one, mine is probably the nether portal (the hidden stairway is a close second). Not even because of the contraption itself, but because of the portal's very neat design. Definetely gonna use it somewhere!

[@jameswesten2018]

Yeah, waterlogging the sensors makes them quiet. They don't make the doooodooo sound.

[@asmdeus9197]

Now i know

[@jemm113]

Waterlogging the sensor should really also disable the particle effect since it can be mad annoying!

why?

@@tabam just so you can have the proximity sensor design while being able to “hide the strings” as it were.

[@xhomiegreninjax137]

A cool Sculk Sensor contraption I made was an Allay Pinger. It uses trap doors to repeatedly activate a sculk sensor that pings a note block so Allays stay linked to it. Yeah, you could probably do the same thing with regular Redstone, but with the Sculk Sensors it really makes it a 1.19 build

Kudos to you, that secret staircase is the first one I’ve seen which uses stairs that blend into the wall, that technique is legitimately innovative and unique.

[@outcast4087]

It's been in the game for literal years. I remember seeing numerous "mechanical house" videos back in the day, and every single house had at least one of these hidden stairs.

[@ApexHerbivore]

Also, no way it stayed out for long enough to climb the stairs

[@nickmacias00]

It’s a cool idea but you’d have to find a way to open it from inside the secret room

[@shatterednova_]

@@ApexHerbivore He literally climbed up it. And if you want it to stay out longer then just add a couple repeaters

[@BananaMan-sb9rj]

Hear me out: To activate the portal in the Ancient City, you need to use the wireless sculk mechanism; there are already the lanterns activated only by sound, but in order to activate the portal, you will need to use a loud, long and powerful sound, which would be the goat horn

[@shiloh2699]

That makes some sense, but I think there should be more of a price to pay to open the portal. If whatever is behind the portal is worth it even in the late game, then there should be a way to verify that the player who is opening the portal is in fact late game. It would be a little weird if you could just spawn in, find a goat horn+ancientcity and immediately get access to all that loot.

[@BananaMan-sb9rj]

@@shiloh2699 True. Perhaps a special type of goat horn created by combining goat horn and several echo shards, so you need to explore the city itself

[@craftminer49er]

@@BananaMan-sb9rj craft it with a shulker shell. Instant way to hard cap it to late game

[@idksus6074]

Maybe use the horns all in one and echo shards like what banana man said but maybe instead of those normal horns use the (not in game anymore or not in game PERIOD yet was mentioned) the copper goat horns?

[@apancakewithabs632]

@@craftminer49er I think it should fit the theme more. Sure, a shulker shell does instnatly make it late game, but doesnt make much sense. Why a shulker shell? it should be more related to the deep dark/ sounds imo.

honestly using the sculk sensors and shriekers as a form of alarm system in a base would be super cool, maybe YOU become the warden to your own base?

[@JupiterJamie]

I wish I had more interest in redstone builds. I think they are interesting, and can be very useful. I'm fine using droppers, dispensers, observers and the easily understood mechanics of those, but once I see a comparator or multiple repeaters it triggers something in my brain that says NOPE! That's why I love most of the things you've built. Not too complicated for my brain.😆

[@kennyhoneycutt8735]

Hello, I am not new to Minecraft and I am very old-school with it. I love to play on peaceful survival. I love to gather the resources that i need. Anyway long story short you have showed me many things and I thank you for it. Please keep up the good videos and sorry for a long comment.

The hall light idea is straight up horror XD lights following you in a dark hall with creepy sounds coming out of the walls

[@wattlesplays]

YESS

[@__3liot]

If you dont like the length of the redstone pulse you can add a pulse extender You can also use a calibrated sensor along with a comparator and a lectern so that the sensor reacts only to certain actions (walking, eating, etc.) You can also waterlog them so that they dont make any noise, they do however become a bit problematic since most redstone components break when they come in contact with water

[@karenpower2585]

[@deletedaccount7]

I can't remember if the sculk sensors also detect piston movements with blocks, but if they do it sounds cool to have it so in the first design if you had the first sensor also push a block up top which in order lit up the entire hall and then they turned off in order too before walking too far ahead.

[@Among-Us.]

I really love the trap, the portal and the staircase contraptions they're great for adventure maps

[@TiagoMonteiroArt]

11:59 Anyone else noticed that when wattles said "potion" the word that appeared was "poison"? xD

[@saratormenta4687]

When dropping onto a slime block it's a better idea to hold space bar, instead of crouching. Crouching will make you not bounce but you will take fall damage, but with the space bar you don't get hurt

[@sysghost]

Tip: Calibrated sculk sensors filter what kind of sound it should listen to. Make it listen to sheep inside your house. Then have the secret room only open when you have a sheep in your bedroom.

[@DanaBanana94]

thank you! Redstone is too complicated for me, but the automatic lights and portal are very simple, creative ideas. Very much appreciated !

[@one_tricky_boi]

For the last one, the sensor keeps picking up the movement of the piston and it’s just endless😂 but the rest of these are so awesome!!!

[@Faolon]

A tip for waterlogging, you may get dripping of water through the tunnel/room, to solve this, do a lamp, then redstone dust on top the a sculk sensor on top of the dust, waterlogging the sculk senser doesn't flow water right below, it will do the sides however. then put wool between the sensors as usual,

[@nahbroT_T]

I'm building a secret entrance to my mine/underbase storage system using sculk sensors I am really looking for a way to extend the time of the signal so something like the staircase you show here can stay open a lil longer giving enough time to get through it easily... might just go with a t flip flop but that requires manually turning it off and idk what im doing with redstone hahaha

How do I stop the piston from repeatedly activating the sensor? Once I activate it once it keeps looping. (Bedrock)

[@jimenez2403]

Would it work if instead of the dispenser you add a shulker and piston so that is closed when not powered so that when it activates when you get close the water goes away then add a delay so that the water goes away then light the portal?

[@lonelywolf6180]

What if someone doesnt want to see the dispensers on the other side? how could it work with sticky pistons placing them in contact to work and then pull them back?

[@barsozuguler4300]

You could have use pulse extenders to make portal auto-close as well. If you serial wire 2 or 3 of them that should be enough to use the portak

[@quillfire7144]

Slight problem with the automatic stairs, how do you get back down

[@TheDreadedBeauty]

I am probably editting this later in the video if if mentions it somewhere, but I imagine a contraption could be done that pings one dispenser or the othen when the sensor turns on and off, effectively killing the portal when you get away

Skulk afk xp farm: attach a basalt generator around the killing floor of any afk farm, and place a skulk catalyst next to it. Use a soul campfire to kill the mobs and hoppers to collect the drops. The catalyst converts the basalt into skulk, which stores XP and can be harvested later with a hoe. Alternatively, use a mouse clicker to afk farm the skulk while the basalt generator makes new medium to be converted to fresh skulk when mobs die. Viola, afk XP farm that does not sacrifice mob drops or XP. Just be sure to replace all natural blocks around your killing floor with bricks, or else the skulk can get out of hand VERY fast.
