I dont think anyone has suggested this, but what if there was a Block which you could set to a number, say 1, place, then wire to a circuit. Then walk 50 meters away, place another block set 1 to one, then wire it to a switch. Hitting the switch will activate a signal which is transmitted through the air and all other 1 blocks will react to it. Of course it won't be a cheap block, but extremely useful for making remote devices.
To balance itself:
- Has an expensive formula:
- A transmitter draws an invisible straight line to all recievers, dense blocks such as stone impede the signal, reducing the chance of the circuit activating. So transmitters would transmit best to recievers in an open hill, or from the top of a cliff down to some land below it. This would also be quite realisitic, as radio transmitters do work better from the top of hills or in open fields.
This reminds me of the Technic Modpack's receivers. I'm not quite sure of their recipe, but it IS an extremely useful idea. I also love the fact that you took interference into consideration.

I believe this DOES exist, called.... Wireless Redstone I think... I remember using it once :ohmy.gif:... You could also set it so that the power exits in only ONE direction, kinda cool if u had redstone touching another output but didnt want it to power it...

Seems too modern for Minecraft. Plus it ruins the fun of having to hide redstone trails with uniquely built towers and walls.
