Tiny Blocks & Compact Gears [Alpha]

Redstone and hoppers now behave like the real world

Tiny grids got a redesigned fake level. A block changing inside a grid now runs the same steps it runs in the real world, in the same order, so redstone, hoppers and comparators stop drifting.

Fixed

• Comparators read hoppers and chests on time, including when a player or another hopper changes what's inside.
• Breaking a torch no longer leaves dust stuck powered.
• Item sorters work: the lower hopper unlocks when it should.
• Dust connects properly going up and down steps, including across glowstone, glass and sea lanterns.
• Repeaters, comparators, observers and torches keep vanilla timing, and circuits running across several grids tick in the same order as in the world.
• Redstone torches burn out when toggled too fast.
• Create belts keep running along their whole length after a Grid Save or after moving to a Sable sub-level, across grids too.

New

• Sculk sensors work inside a grid. Range counts in cells, and vibrations don't cross between the world and a grid.
• /tinyblocks diff compares a real space with a tiny one and tells you what differs.
• /tinyblocksclient diff does the same from the client side.

For mod developers

• A vanilla block in a grid no longer goes through onNeighborChanged: neighbour updates run inside the fake level. Custom PieceDefinitions still get it.
• SpaceDiff and the new parity tests are described in the developer guide.
