I have a long row of pistons (Maybe about 21?) and I want to power and unpower all of them at once. There is also a corner with another wall of pistons which I also want to power. Any tips on how to do this?
Since im not that great with describing things, check the attachments for what I mean.
Put a line of repeaters along the line of pistons, direct the arrow on the repeater to the grass block below the pistons, and behind the repeaters put a line of redstone dust. It's pretty simple, see below.
I fear you dont understand. There's so many pistons that the redstone wont power it the whole way. Which means I need to continue the power with a repeater, but that means I'd have to skip a piston, and for what im building I cant do that.
simple solution, when you are going to run out of power rout a repeater out one block and wrap the redstone back into the original line and you wont have to skip any

Yes but that means it wont turn off, making a glitchy infinite redstone source that doesn't go away until you remove a repeater from the loop, this is why im asking this question.

i'll try to make you an example later today. it won't look like your's but it will get the idea across. sound good?

Just place a repeater instead of a redstone dust to avoid the infinite power. Check the picture to understand what I'm saying. Pretty much it should just power the repeater and another piece of redstone to continue the signal. Unfortunately this may mean that the pistons may not go off all at the same time.
Unfortunately corners are very hard to power and unpower at the same time. I have no idea currently how to do that. I'll be testing some things for you though.
So I found a way to power corners, but it unfortunately takes up quite a bit of space. You can experiment with it yourself though and see what works with your build. (P.S.- This setup also requires a lever to power the corner pistons. You could wire everything else up to it, but the lever would be exposed. Or you could find one of those magical redstone people who know how to make a very compact piston extender)

This is officially the best signature ever... Why? Because why not.
those are some good examples. do you still need mine?

Heres the smallest concept that I found, and I proudly (xD) made it! Its very clear on what to do and very easy to understand. If you need any more help, redstone/commandblock related, just ask me! Well, here we go, hope you like it!
