Redstone Wire

Title: Redstone Wires: Long-Range Fence-Mounted Power Lines ​Description: Redstone Wires are a dedicated infrastructure item designed to build realistic electrical grids and overhead power lines without relying on bulky, floating ground-bound Redstone Dust. ​Inventory Category: Placed directly in the Items creative tab, located specifically alongside the Redstone items. ​Exclusive Placement: Attaches strictly to Fence posts—cannot be placed on standard solid blocks or walls. ​Range Limit: Maximum distance limit of 64 blocks span between fences. ​Capacity Limit: Each individual fence post can hold a maximum of 5 wires attached at the same time. ​Lead Physics: Uses dynamic lead mechanics to connect fence-to-fence, creating natural catenary wire curves. ​Power Transmission: Transmits redstone power continuously across the entire network to power streetlights, doors, and machinery. ​Controls & Handling (Touch & Controller Friendly): ​Tap Fence (with Wire in hand): Connects a wire to an empty fence or adds a line to an existing post (up to 5 wires). ​Hold/Long-Press Fence: Instantly grabs and retrieves all placed wires attached to that fence post (functioning like untying a lead) without breaking the fence. ​Hold Item Icon (Hotbar): Releases or cancels the wire currently held in hand. ​Crafting Recipe (3x3 Grid): ​Top Row: 3x Black Dye (Insulator) ​Middle Row: 3x Redstone Dust (Conductor) ​Bottom Row: 3x Black Dye (Insulator) ​Yield: 64x Redstone Wires
