Carriers
- Redstone dust behaves as a wire that carries signals. The signal strength drops by 1 level per piece of dust. Powered Redstone dust has a particle effect.
- Dots of dust strongly power in all directions
- Lines strongly power in only one direction
- Repeaters take a redstone signal as input and boost the signal strength to 15.
- They are directional: the end next to the switch is the input and the output is next to the torch.
- They output only to the block directly in front of them and won't power adjacent blocks.
- They delay transmission by one tick by default, which can be increased to four ticks.
- A repeater can be locked/latched. preventing it from changing its state (either powered or unpowered), by:
- Placing another powered repeater facing its side.
- Placing a powered comparator facing its side.
- A repeater that is locked too quickly after unlocking where the input is changed on the same tick will not change states.
