[INACTIVE][MECH] RainbowWool v1.0 - use redstone to bring rainbows to wool. [300+]

RainbowWool​

Bring colour to your wool​

Download latest: v1.0​

NOTE: If you experienced issues before, redownload. Please accept my apologies.​

RainbowWool is an innovative way to bring colour to wool based on redstone input. Usually, dyes are required to get wool to change to anything other than dull old white. With RainbowWool, a simple redstone circuit could change everything.​

RainbowWool uses the strength of redstone current to set colours of wool. For every increase in current by 1, the wool will change colour to the corresponding data value. Use RainbowWool to brighten up your skyscraper, colourise your disco or maybe even create a colour display.​

Use the below image and link for reference: redstone current starts at 16 For every decrease in current (1 block move), the colour will move down by 1 value.​

​

Features:​

-Easy to configure, drag/drop functionality.​

-Wool colours change instantly based on redstone input.​

Changelog:​

-v1.0 - initial release.​

 

Awesome so I can use this to make a groovy wave pattern floor?

 

Won't this lag the server alot with a very big rainbow?

 

Must, make, super, cool, rainbow, wall, just, out, of, spawn.

 

It wouldn't lag the server at all.

 

Bug Report/Warning: This plugin will break existing circuitry by making redstone torches only attach / reattach to the ground instead of the side of a block. (breaks inverters and logic gates)....

This was experienced on my server and I needed to remove the plugin and restore from backup... Other people should verify if this causes issues for them, as it may just be an incompatibily with my version of craftbook (339) or another plugin.

 

Confirm, all retstone torches are disconnectet and reconnected to the ground.
Thank god i had several backups!

 

Hmmm... I'll see what may be causing this. Sorry about your worlds

I don't know what would cause it... unless redstone attaching is based on block data?

@RichGrav, can you try redownloading again please and see it will work?
--- merged: Feb 19, 2011 5:56 AM ---
I think it works now, it does on my comp.

 

I'm giving it a try... Looks like a great plugin. I'll let you know how it goes.

Rich

 

hmmm
RapidPulsers /break/ the map until the plugin is uninstalled. uhhh... i think woolblock-RapidPulsers...

This plugin is actually really cool, i hope a fix will come soon for the rapid pulsers.

 

Does it lag heaps?

 

uhhmm...
I honestly don't understand what your saying.

all i know is -Xmx and -Xms is 1024.

 

Double rainbow all the way!
OT: Thanks Funny plugin ^^

 

How do rapid pulsers 'break' the server? This will help me fix your problem.

 

when multiple things are connected to a wool block (with a rapid Pulser, 2 redstone torches and 2 restonewire placed on a wool block)

it will change colors for only a second. and then the server becomes unresponsive until it restarts, i cant test this again. cause i dont know where to get an older version of Bukkit.

But on my server someone made a pulser then the server became unresponsive, i had to restart it. i dont know if there is something wrong with my server, or if this is for everyone.

I don't really test plugins on a localserver.

 

Sounds like there's just too much input on one wool block :/. You could try to find some way to test this locally, or alternatively you could get a more powerful server to handle the lag.

 

oh... i just noticed, it shows an error... sorry for that

Hmmm... that's an unusual error. This is caused by a block to the west of a redstone block not being able to set data - which is strange, since you should be able to in all cases. Can you try to find the specific block that causes this?

Can you try redownloading and trying again?

 

i set all the redstone related stuff on wool, just like what the person on my server did. but i dont recall getting these errors on my actual server.
Those errors were from a test server i decided to setup today.

 

Did redownloading fix the problem?

 

I just don't understand how this plugin works. Can you upload an example video to Youtube?

 

Well... not really . My computer has been weird. I may be able to tomorrow. For now, here's an explanation. Basically, every time redstone current passes next to a wool block, the wool block will change colour. The colour is based on how much current the redstone block is currently holding. IE. If I had 16 current in the wire or torch, and it passed next to a wool block, the wool block would change to colour 16 (which is black). The wool values link provided has a full list of these.

Sorry... redownload.

 

number of current? you mean like 16 torches in one wire? or dose the color chance after current is applied each time. like one pulse turns it one color, then the next pulse another color, all the way up to 16 pulses then it restarts to 1?

this must have been a lot of work.....

if i were to use this, i would have a huge clock generator attached to row after row of this stuff up a huge tower coated in glass. i could even have it display a word by setting the blocks that make the word ahead by 5 or 6 cycles.

 

The colour is equal to the current level flowing into the block. It wasn't much work at all - look at the source code XD.

 

As in, redstone stops flowing 16 blocks from the source, so the distance from the source affects the color of wool?

 

Yes.

 

Makes sense. I've never designed a circuit like that before, but I suppose it is possible to have one block alternate through all the colors with fancy torch placement and some repeater clocks.

 

tried to make a multicolored floor, and came up with this:

then this repeats indefinitely & had to kill the server:

.. may have something to do with me using world edit to make a layer or redstone under the wool.. i'll try by hand..
-Edit
that was it... not sure why, but it seems to be working now
- Another Edit
ok.. nevermind. i added a clock output to the wool floor, and the exact same error came up
