Redstone Armor

You can craft these the same way you craft any armor except with redstone dust.

Redstone armor has less durability than gold, but can give off a redstone signal within a 4 block radius.

    So, a great way to break the redstone contraptions of the people you wanted to visit since some redstone machines are finicky and if you activate the lines out of order they will break.

    That's why in maps or complex contraptions a sign says "Stand Here"

    Sorry mate, but this is just not a good idea at all. In addition to all the practical problems ClayGoddessSari mentioned, it sounds really hard to code. You'd have to change the game to where all redstone components would have to be constantly checking for a player wearing redstone armor within a certain radius. Even if that's possible to code in, which it probably isn't, it likely would have severe negative effects on our computers' performances.

    It also demonstrates a very elementary knowledge of how redstone works on your part, I think. Many redstone circuits depend on having some parts powered at some times and other parts unpowered at other times. This idea would help no-one.

    So your purpose is to have a very special way of activating redstone without touching anything.  The only issue is everything that isn't very specially designed to work with it and doesn't happen to be extremely robust by nature is just going to break the moment you walk close...

    Your purpose sounds pretty cool, honestly.  The issue is it would also be adored by griefers who would just walk around the base of someone who loves redstone contraptions and wreck them all.

    redstone dust wouldn't work, maybe using 2 redstone dust can make an item used for redstone armor?

    This is a bad idea for armour.

    But as an enchantment, it'd be a really good idea

    The only use I can think of for this is to set off traps. Why would anyone wear a trap trigger?

    Redstone armour could be a good idea but instead of a redstone signal special boosts like night vision for the helmet
