  • Tier block × 4
    Every T is the same block, and that block’s Tier sets the rune’s strength.
  • Signature block × 4
    Each arm holds a Tier 1+ block other than the Tier block, or stays empty (air or Tier 0). Read by compass direction, the arms spell the rune’s signature.
  • Air or a Tier 0 block × 12
    Leave these as air, or fill them with Tier 0 blocks such as dirt or stone.
  • Activation block
    The glowing cell is the one to click.

    How it works​

    The Pressure Sensor fires when a living creature stands in the three-by-three space above its centre. It wakes every block marked under its signature by an Automation Designator, in the order they were marked.

    Right-click its heart to attune it. Pressure Sensor attuned. Matching designations will fire in order. Sneak and right-click to disarm it.

    Good to know​

    • It reaches marked blocks within 32 blocks per Tier, measured as a flat square.
    • It waits two seconds between fires.
    • The runes it wakes act for the player who stepped on it, and that player needs the usual permission and Initiation.
    • Only the player who attuned it can disarm or re-attune it. Others hear This sensor answers only to the one who attuned it. See Ownership.

    See Automation for the whole system.
