| Description |

I was attempting to make a 1- tick clock with torch repeaters, and attempted to start it off with a one tick pulse supplied by a redstone torch placed on top of a redstone block. What I expected: A one tick signal to run through the connected redstone wire, as in the Java version What happened: The torch flicked on for a very short amount of time and did not power the redstone wire at all. To replicate: place a redstone block level with the ground. Run a redstone line away from the redstone block, but not on top of the block. Place a torch on top of the redstone block. To any moderators: If there are any criteria I did not meet, please notify me in the comments/reply section NOTE: This does not occur in the PC release of the game |

Yes, it's now fixed. I don't know the exact version in which the bug got fixed though. |

I have a new development: The circuit that proves torches work as intended does not work in the Java (PC) version of the game. The components used are all currently implemented in the Pocket/Windows 10 edition of the game. The Java circuit is in both screenshots, on the left of SideBySide.png and the main feature of Javacircuit.png. The java circuit reacts differently than the windows 10 version, proving that torches do not line up with one tick. Edit: I have tested a one- tick PC redstone torch with an old style two-torch repeater. It seems that the NOT gate is reacting to the torch much like the redstone wire in Pocket Edition, in that the "repeater" does not respond to the visibly powered torch and connected wire Edit: Sadly, i cannot add a screenshot, as the moment of all three things happening at the same time is very small, and would require very precise timing to capture. |

I have replicated your circuit for torch taking one tick to turn off, but instead of a side- block torch, I substituted it for a top of block torch, and the results remained the same. I ran this in order to test whether or not the behavior of torches differed based upon their orientation, as with |

I can confirm that the door does make the opening sound, as well as the closing sound on WIndows 10 64 bit |

With your torch and-gate experiment, would the AND gate not add a delay to the circuit? I feel that if you added torches of any kind to the circuit, it should cause the pulse to be thrown out if too short, due to it not satisfying the delay. With your circuit as-is, the torches could be adding up to a one tick delay from the existing, incorrect delay that you proved exists, but is less than one tick in the Door test. |

I investigated this further. First, I wanted to know if the torch put on the redstone block produces any pulse no matter how short it is, so I connected it to a door (shown in pulse-detector-using-a-door.png Then I built a circuit shown in torch-taking-1-tick-to-turn-off.png |

The odd thing is, with the Burnout torch clock (which I will add once I figure a way to) the delay seems present, even to a point of too much of a delay, as the torches alternate so evenly that the top wire will stay continuously powered throughout the cycles. More torches added just continue their neighbor's activity Edit: I actually may make this a separate report after checking to see if it has been reported before or not. Edit: I have created a separate report for this issue labeled |

Aha, I had forgotten that 1-tick delay. You are right Cameron, this is indeed a bug. |

(scorethrough)To respond to your comment PHO, if i'm not mistaken, Redstone torches do introduce a delay of one tick to any circuit that they are added to, since they definitely aren't instantaneous (such as Redstone wire). I will soon put up a specific test/example(/scorethrough) |

Hmm... The moment when the torch on the redstone block tries to power the wire and the torch gets activated (and thus turned off) by the redstone block are in exactly the same tick, right? If so, the circuit itself can be considered very unreliable. Even in the PC version the behavior can change between versions I assume... |
