MAJOR TURNOFF! 8 block ids? please merge them into one block id, Even better if you can merge them with the vanilla piston id.
Use metadat...please! and i'll re-add your mod.
Is there a config for editing the IDs ?
Also, may you try to use Metadata for the Pistons ? The Mods uses 8 Block IDs which is too much for me. I only have like 2 or 3 left :/
what block id's does it use?
The id's obviously conflict between the mods I have , because the pistons didn't appear in NEI.
Fix it and add a .props file in witch we can change the block id's in case of a conflict.
Block id's are:
230
231
232
233
234
235
249
250
I will be working on a config file soon, or you can run this:

could u make a piston that when u turn it on it can push u whit a minecart so u go automaticly in a minecart? ( and in your track if you build 1 ofcourse )
This is a great idea, but I can't use it atm without a config file, and I only have 5 Id's available. I'll keep watch so once you've fixed these things I'm def going to be using it.
Montypylon, you know the pistons were from Hippoplatimus' piston mod ,right? Do you think you might want to mention his name since your entire mod would probably not be here if it weren't for his piston mod? I have had this idea for months since the piston mod(Mm bad a modding, so I wasn't going to do it)so a for you
Finally,
I requested a mod like this about eight months ago. It was one of my very first posts when I joined the forum.
I will definitely be giving this a try when the block IDs are configurable. You seem to be very active in the post so I hop e it translates into an active mod that can really develop into something great.
One huge suggestion: A visual way to tell the pistons apart. I know you can read the names but just like in your demo video it can be confusing really fast since they all look the same.
Awesome job. I don't know why anyone didn't make this sooner.
Requirements: You will need MODLOADER for this to work!!
How to install:
Or:
1. Open the .zip file with winrar or 7zip
2. Locate your minecraft.jar, if you don't know how then hit the start button on the lower left hand corner and search
for %appdata%, next click on roaming-->.minecraft-->bin-->.minecraft.jar
3. Open your minecraft.jar with winrar or 7zip
4. Drag everything from my MorePistons.zip and ModLoader.zip into your minecraft.jar and make sure to delete the folder name META-INF!!
Screenshots:
Double Pistons:
Triple Pistons:
Quadruple Pistons:
Whats coming next:
+Add Quintuple piston
+Work on Gravitational piston
+Add a config file for block ids
+Work on metadata for block ids
Crafting Recipes:
= Double Piston!
= Double Sticky Piston!
Now you just need to replace the piston with a double piston to make a triple piston and so on. The crafting recipe for a sticky double piston is the same as a normal piston but with a double piston instead, and the same with the triple and quadruple.
You are allowed to do reviews of this mod so long as you post a link to this forum, or the adf.ly download but the direct link. As long as you follow those rules I more than glad to have you do a review. When your done with the video make sure to post it here so I can put it in the post! Thank you.
WHYYYYYYYYYYYYY MAKE IT A ZIP OTHER WISE PEOPLE ON MAC WONT BE ABLE TO DOWNLOAD NOOOOOOOO
Instead of several pistons why not a GUI to control a single pistons length. A way to have stick pistons pull more than one block at time would be nice as well.

Config is here, now working on meta-datas for the block id's
This is a great idea, but I can't use it atm without a config file, and I only have 5 Id's available. I'll keep watch so once you've fixed these things I'm def going to be using it.

Well that's kind of like saying if I made a mod that adds milk, I would have to mention Notch's name for making water.
DIAGONAL PISTONS (Sorry for double post but this idea has been bugging me for Months since i used redstone and PIstons)
I probably won't make a diagonal piston because it would take too much time and it's not a very good idea. But if you send me the contraption your trying to make out of redstone maybe I could help you finish it without diagonal piston! :smile.gif:
nice thing, although it has some bugs
the pistons aren't shown in creative mode, i had to craft them
doing a design like this: http://screenshooter...6992785/dblubqr doesn't work properly, expanding works fine but reverse causes the middle pistons to disappear
those are quadruple pistons btw, you'd better attempt to fix those bugs, pretty annoying ones
other then that its really nice, keep on the good work
you should obviously make more kinds of pistons, like a piston with spikes on them
EDIT: apparently its possible to make the pistons disappear in many different ways...
Dang it, I was working on those bugs all weekend, I thought I got rid of them all but apparently not. Thank you for taking the time to post this!! And yes I am adding more pistons, gonna fix block id bugs and block removal bugs first. :biggrin.gif:

I was thinking of making the bases different colors, do you have any opinion on which piston will be associated with which color?
Instead of several pistons why not a GUI to control a single pistons length. A way to have stick pistons pull more than one block at time would be nice as well.
I have thought of the gui but I don't like the idea, but yes I have thought of making a material that allows you to stick two blocks together and push and pull them together.
Use metadat...please! and i'll re-add your mod.
Oh 8? Really... there's only 4 pistons! lol
There are already sticky pistons, I'll add more pictures of them if you want.
Seems complicated, can you explain further?
Working on it.
I am working on it so it will come soon.
Haha
Block id's are:
230
231
232
233
234
235
249

I will be working on a config file soon, or you can run this:

Working on it.
I'm working on it.
I think you can do that already.
Theres actually 6 pistons.
This is a great idea, but I can't use it atm without a config file, and I only have 5 Id's available. I'll keep watch so once you've fixed these things I'm def going to be using it.

I can help with a problem?, Is that activating or give out redstone the triple piston Saving Chunks

Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Config is here, now working on meta-datas for the block id's
I like the idea, and I will be considering it.
Config file is here.
THANK YOU! :biggrin.gif:
Thank you for noticing this!!! His video is now in the thread!

There is now a config file!

Mojang really need to include it in minecraft :smile.gif:
