Community Creations - Horse Door
We have all seen roller-coasters, castles, fighting tournaments, and clever redstone creations. It's time for something completely different!
...okay, I lied. It's a clever redstone creation. However, it's a remarkable contraption that many will find a use for: the horse-powered door! No, I didn't say "a door with horsepower", but rather a door powered by a horse.
Minecrafter CnwysHeist has put together a door that will only open if you are riding a horse through it - 100% vanilla, without command blocks, mods, cheats, hacks, or anything else. I'll be honest when I say I didn't believe it could be done just from the description - how would you even make a pressure plate detect just horses, for example - but Cnwy has pulled it off, and it is quite remarkable!
Check it out, and build your very own horse door today!
Great to be in the Minecraft News!
Will build one now.
Now we just have to hope that Mojang never catches wind of a potential block-glitching bug and decides to squash out a really clever and useful system...
Well, it's something that isn't a wanted feature of the horses, so therefore it technically is something that should be fixed. But of course you don't have to fix all bugs and who knows what Mojang thinks about it.
Just Sayin'. :\
Every time I see someone make something that exploits a glitch that quite obviously shouldn't be there, while interesting and inventive, all I can think is, "Great, one more group of people that are going to come on the forums and gripe when Mojang eventually fixes this..."
