 Description   

See the attached screenshots.

In some configurations, Redstone lamps refuse to blink properly while in others they do.

In the pictures, placing 1 lamp causes them all to stop blinking. Removing it causes them to blink like they should. Screenshot 1 is the normal one that blinks right, and the other one is when they stop working.

No response for over a year.

Is this still a concern in the current Minecraft version 1.8.1 Prerelease 3 / Launcher version 1.5.3 or later? If so, please update the affected versions in order to best aid Mojang ensuring bugs are still valid in the latest releases/pre-releases.

Is this still a concern in the current Minecraft version 1.7.4 / Launcher version 1.3.8 or later? If so, please update the affected versions in order to best aid Mojang ensuring bugs are still valid in the latest releases/pre-releases.

In 1.5.2, using 1 lamp shows normal blinking. The second you add more lamps, the lamps take less time to turn back on when blinking until eventually they do not blink anymore.

Still in 1.5/13w11a

Confirmed, when both repeaters are on 1 tick.

Comment by FireHunterX [ 15/Mar/13 ]

@Kumasasa: Try reducing the delay on the repeaters so that they are both set to 1 tick.

Cannot reproduce in 13w05b

if you add enough lamps, you can observe this issue even with the clock period increased by 1 redstone tick.

Comment by FireHunterX [ 07/Jan/13 ]

Appears as if the more lamps are used, the less likely they will blink.
