Description (from Recipaedia)
Pistons can be used to push and pull blocks. The extention of piston is controlled by voltage applied to it. 0.8 v will extend piston 1 block, 0.9 v two, etc.1.5V will extend a piston a maximum of 8 blocks. Pistons can also be edited to limit the maximum extention to lower values. If the piston is a pull piston it will also pull one block back when retracting. If the piston is a strick pull piston, it will not pull back unless it is pulling back a block.
This is the pulling piston which will also pull back blocks that are touching it.
Crafting
It takes 1 Copper Ingot and 1 Piston to craft 1 pulling piston.
NOTE: The piston must be reset to its starting settings or the crafting table will not accept it. That is, the max extention must be 8 and the speed must be fast.
Use
Place the piston where you want it. It is a directional block like the Dispenser and will be aimed at you when you place it.
Editing it
Open its UI by making it center in the screen when you are close enough. The sneak button will turn into the edit icon (sheet paper). Tap that icon. The following window opens up:
From this window you can adjust the piston's speed, the maximum distance that it will extend and how many blocks it will pull back.
Notes
- See the Piston page for the lists of piston-abled and piston-blocker items.
- Pistons were added in V2.0
