A Piston consists of the piston base and the Piston Top.
Blocks can be attached to the top to move them forward and backward by extending and retracting the piston base. The minimum and maximum expansion length can be configured in the control panel.
Pisons have a built-in conveyor tube with a port on the back of the piston base and another port at the Piston Top. So it's possible to transfer items, electricity and oxygen through them and thus use them in an existing Conveyor Network.
Piston data
Type | Max. extended length |
---|---|
Large grid piston | 10.0 m |
Small grid piston | 3.0 m |
Known issues
V01.079.008:
Pistons are currently known for beeing unstable. They work good in single player. But in multiplayer, especially when used on a dedicated server (DS), they tend to move/vibrate unecpectedly and can also destroy themselves and damage their surroundings in the proccess.
