Copper Wiring

This pack allows for Lightning Rods, an otherwise mostly useless item, to be used as copper wiring for Redstone machines. It can be run an infinite distance, can be parallel to other copper wires, and can also send power straight up and down. All of which are things Redstone dust is unable to do. Although it cannot be powered directly by Redstone, it can power any Redstone that is adjacent to it.

This pack also uses several different blocks to better create circuit possibilities and better integrate with Redstone, such as:

Lightning Rod->Copper Wire: Can be powered by lightning strikes or by transformed power from Redstone. These are directional, so all wires have to place in the same direction in a sequence in order to work. Direct contact also damages the player and mobs, and damage from further away in water.

Chiseled Copper->Junction Node: Allows multiple copper wire power channels to intersect at the same block without interfering with each other.

Copper Block->Power Transmitter and AND/OR gate: Allows copper wire channels to change direction, and will only send power out to as many directions as come into it. If there are more outputs than inputs, power will not flow.

Cut Copper Block->Logical XOR/NOT gate: Works the same as the regular copper block, but will also not send power through if the number of powered inputs exceeds the number of outputs.

Copper Grate->Capacitor: The Copper grate will charge when there are inputs, with a visual charge level indicator. The more inputs, the faster it charges, and the more outputs, the faster it discharges.

Copper Bulb->Transformer: Allows Redstone power to be transformed into electricity, as long as it is powered by a source with a signal strength of 15.

Heavy Core->Tesla Core: Allows Tesla Towers to be created, which can deal shock damage to nearby mobs and players.

Quartz blocks->Oscillator: Sends out a short pulse once a second, or faster based on number of inputs

Additionally, the oxidation level of copper related blocks and rods may add some delay, which could be helpful or hurtful!

Powering copper/quartz blocks with redstone will prevent power from outputting.
