Item Comparator & Item Amplifier – Short Explanation
The Item Comparator is a new Redstone component that detects a specific item inside containers such as hoppers or chests. It contains a built-in item frame in which the player places a reference item. The Item Comparator only outputs a signal when this exact item is present in the connected inventory. Other items are ignored.
The signal produced by the Item Comparator is a special item-based signal that is separate from normal Redstone signals.
The Item Amplifier is designed to work exclusively with this item-based signal. It functions similarly to a Redstone repeater but can only read, amplify, and extend signals coming from an Item Comparator. It does not react to standard Redstone signals.
Together, these two items allow Redstone systems to react to which item is present, not just how full a container is, enabling cleaner and more precise automation.
