 Description   

The Redstone dot doesn't power blocks on the horizontal plane when strongly powered. The Redstone dot is supposed to power all blocks touching it in the horizontal plane. I've included a pic of the bug in mcpe and a pic of the console version displaying what should happen. Notice the right hand torch in both pics; they both should be off but in the mcpe scenario it is on.

Yes . This has been fixed.

Appears to be fixed in beta 0.14.0 build 3, can not reproduce it anymore.

try to balance the redstone if it is open its a bug if its not not a bug

I have found a yet-another-pattern.png of the glitch in 0.13.1. The strangest part of this is that the block powering the dust (the white wool in my screenshot) needs to be powered by a torch. Any other means of strongly-powering the wool, e.g. buttons, levers, or tripwire hooks will not lead to the glitch. And if you replace the block below the erroneously activated torch with a lamp, the lamp gets activated as expected.

This issue still affects 0.13.1, but strangely, I can confirm that MCPE-11871 is now fixed. These two issues turned out to be different.

It's not quite that simple depressed-Pho The dust will power adjacent dust and will power the lower adjacent block (see screenshot 2015-11-27)

Comment by PHO [ 27/Nov/15 ]

The powder needs not be a dot. A line of powder getting power from straight above (not diagonally above) fails to power horizontally adjacent blocks. It's the same as the 3rd bug reported in MCPE-11855.

Thanks, this bug was reported and will be fixed in future releases.

Confirmed on Samsung Galaxy S4 Active Android 5.0.1 MCPE 0.13 build 5.

I simplified the structure, replacing the block and side-mounted redstone torch with a redstone lamp (Screenshot_2015-11-16-11-14-23), then I placed lamps at each of the other compass directions and none was powered (Screenshot_2015-11-16-11-14-48).

I expected The powered redstone dust cross would power blocks in all 4 compass directions in the same plane as the redstone dust.

Strange, I don't play PC so I never thought it was an issue like that:
Confirmed on:
Kindle Fire HDX 8.9 (3rd Generation)
Fire OS 4.5.5 (Android 4.4.3)

Confirmed on Asus Zenfone 5 (Androod 5.0)
I tested on Minecraft Java (1.8) and also works. This really is a bug. http://imgur.com/VPZhfHc
