 Description   

This is the MCPE counterpart to MC-107934. I would guess that MCPE is the one that is doing it wrong, as repeaters and comparators are placed with their outputs facing away from you, making the MCPE observer placement inconsistent.

wakafu mafuyuu That is unrelated. I'm talking about how MCPE observers are currently placed. Both MCPE & Java observers are placed like pistons, but which side faces you when you place it is different in the 2 editions.

i remember they say that they change it with how piston is placed (previously similar to a Log placement)
