When you are making your redstone suggestions, please note that Java and Bedrock will not have the exact same the same redstone systems - this would require redoing redstone system completely on one platform or the other. The two systems are functionally different and are going to stay that way. Please be sure to tag your suggestions with (Java) or (Bedrock).

Block Detector: Detect Block and Block State in World

Add a new block: Block Detector

It has two faces: source face (for block to compare), detection face(for block to detect)

It will check if the block at it's source face and the block at it's detection face is the same, and output redstone.

  • If they are exactly the same, it will output redstone with 15 strengh
  • If they are the same block, but the block states are different, it will output redstone with 8 strengh
  • If they are different block, it will not output redstone

Block Detectors are movable by pistons, and can be used in fly machine to detect stuff.

Detecting block states is really useful, for example to detect if wooden doors are closed, or if crops are fully grown.

    I'm not convinced that this feature would actually be useful.
