MalisisSwitches Reborn

MalisisSwitchesReborn is an unofficial modern-day port of the classic MalisisSwitches mod by Ordinastie from the Minecraft 1.12 era, bringing its simple and flexible redstone control blocks to newer Minecraft versions.

This port focuses on preserving the original look and feel as much as possible while using modern Minecraft systems. No external core libraries are required.

Note: The Player Sensor is inspired by similar functionality from the original MalisisBlocks mod.

Selected devices from the original 1.19.2 version of the Gauges and Switches Mod have also been included, bringing RSG's unique industrial style to MalisisSwitchesReborn.

Latest Update - Version 1.0.7

MalisisSwitchesReborn 1.0.7 adds quality of life, stability, and gameplay improvements.

Highlights

• Light Switch — A compact light switch that can also control the redstone current from a distance
• Industrial Lever — An industrial style lever that can also control the redstone current from a distance
• Small Industrial Lever — A compact industrial style lever that can also control the redstone current from a distance
• Industrial Button — An industrial button style lever that can also control the redstone current from a distance
• Industrial Analog Slider — Manually sets redstone strength from 0 to 15 and can control the redstone current from a distance
• Motion Sensor — An automatic sensor that activates based on selected entity proximity and can also control the redstone current from a distance
• Compact Motion Sensor — A small automatic sensor that activates based on selected entity proximity and can also control the redstone current from a distance
• Pressure Plate — An entity configurable standard pressure plate that can also control the redstone current from a distance
• Weighted Pressure Plate — A standard heavy pressure plate that can also control the redstone current from a distance
• Button — A standard button that can control the redstone current from a distance
• Relay — Receives power directly or from linked devices and wirelessly outputs standard redstone
• Small Digital Display — A compact digital readout for monitoring redstone power levels
• Analog Voltmeter — An analog readout for monitoring redstone power levels
• Small Analog Voltmeter — A compact analog readout for monitoring redstone power levels
• Alarm Lamp — A red lamp that blinks while detecting a redstone signal
• Alarm Siren — A siren that sounds repeatedly while detecting a redstone signal
• Coloured LEDs — Blinking and standard variants that react while detecting a redstone signal

How It Works

Switches, levers, and sensors work like vanilla levers and can be linked to other blocks using the Power Linker tool.

The Power Linker has three operating modes. Sneak-scroll while holding it to cycle through:

• Linking
• Redstone State
• Device Configuration

Right-clicking a compatible device or block applies the currently selected mode. If the target does not support that mode, nothing happens.

Linking

Equip the Power Linker in Linking mode and right-click a switch or sensor to select it as the source. Right-click each block you want the redstone current to be applied to. You can also unlink by sneak-right-clicking a previously linked block.

Right-clicking another switch or sensor selects it as the new source. Unequipping the Power Linker clears the current source. The source is also cleared if the selected device is broken.

While the Power Linker is equipped in Linking mode, the links between compatible devices and linked locations are visible:

• Green — powered
• Red — unpowered

Link highlights are not displayed while using the Redstone State or Device Configuration modes.

Redstone State

Supported devices can have their redstone behaviour changed using the Power Linker. Sneak-scroll to select Redstone State, then right-click a compatible device to cycle through:

• Normal
• Inverted
• Weakened
• Inverted + Weakened

Inverted reverses the device's output. An inactive device outputs a redstone strength of 15, while an active device outputs 0. This applies to both its local redstone output and any linked blocks.

Weakened retains a redstone strength of 15 but removes direct/strong power. The block directly attached to the device, or the block targeted through a wireless link, receives the signal, but it does not strongly power neighbouring blocks.

For example, a weakened switch linked to a quartz block will power the quartz block at strength 15, but redstone dust placed beside the quartz block will remain unpowered.

Redstone State	Device Inactive	Device Active	Strong Power
Normal	0	15	Yes
Inverted	15	0	Yes
Weakened	0	15	No
Inverted + Weakened	15	0	No

Wireless links preserve the complete Redstone State. They behave as though the configured device's output had been moved to the linked block.

When Jade is installed, the active non-default state is displayed in the block tooltip as Redstone State.

Device Configuration

Select Device Configuration and right-click a compatible device to cycle through its device-specific options.

Devices without any configurable options are unaffected.

Relays

Relays can be linked to switches, levers, sensors, and other relays in the same way. Relays accept wireless and standard redstone input and can wirelessly output a standard redstone signal. A relay can be used with:

• Redstone dust
• Repeaters and comparators
• Pistons
• Doors
• Any vanilla or modded block that accepts a redstone signal

Pressure Plate and Button

The Pressure Plate and Button behave in the same way as their standard Minecraft equivalents, but they can also be linked to other blocks using the Power Linker.

Remote Transmitter

The Remote Transmitter can link up to 16 compatible devices, including switches, sensors and relays, for remote activation within the same dimension.

Sneak-right-click a compatible device to link or unlink it. Sneak-right-click air to clear all current links.
