I know there are a few post about this but just hear me out. I'm not a big user of redstone, just because it is useless to me. I know you can make train stations, make double doors open at the same time and stuff, but I can just open one door instead of 2. Recently, in the 1.5 update, notch added some new minecart tracks, that require redstone. That is why I don't need to do all of that stuff just to call a cart. Also you can make note blocks with redstone (I don't use them), and dispensers. I have about 3 despensers, that require 1 redstone each. That still doesn't make up for all 10 of my 64 stacks of redstone. (there is also compasses and clocks)
This is why I think we need more things to do with redstone. Like making some sort of block disapear (like a floodgate). That would help alot of us out for mob traps, a way to turn foutains on and off, and make a guard system for a house. That is just one way redstone could be more helpful. I bet you guys have way more ideas. Please post more idea's if you agree.
Yeah, I guess. But in order to use a piston like i explained, you need to blocks of space. So, I still want something more to was I explained.
In that case, you also want Drainage Grates. Look 'em up - there's a great suggestion here for ones that can be turned on and off with redstone.
Yeah that but:
1. Drainage grates only allow lava and water to go threw. Let say I want a secret Passage way that looks totally normal ( no picture in front of it) and when you flip a switch, some blocks disapear and reveils a secret room.
You named like 7 different things to use redstone for and you act like that isn't enough. If you make a song out of note blocks that 10 stacks will quickly dimish. Also creating redstone signals takes up around 16-20 redstone minimum. However demeaning your suggestion was, floodgates would add a lot of possibilities into the game so I support.
Then you want secret doorways, which have also been suggested a billion times.
EDIT: This reminds me of your 'let's have more portals but I don't know where they go' 'suggestion'. It's basically 'I want more redstone stuff, but rather than suggest anything or support other suggestions I'll just tell you broadly what I want and leave it at that'. Stop making these stupid threads.
I suggested disapearing blocks that are redstone powered.
Yeah, sorry bout that portal thread.....

2. I don't want it see-though.
I already seen that drainage grate thing.
