Update 0.13.0 |
Tripwire Hooks are non-solid Blocks added in Update 0.13.0.
Obtaining[]
Tripwire Hooks can be obtained by Crafting, or as an obtainable Item through the process of Fishing.
After Update 0.15.0, Tripwire Hooks also generate naturally in Jungle Temples.
Crafting[]
- 1 Wooden Plank + 1 Stick + 1 Iron Ingot => 2 Tripwire Hooks
- 1 Tripwire Hook + 1 Chest => 1 Trapped Chest
Usage[]
Tripwire Hooks can be placed on any opaque block and must be connected to another Tripwire Hook through Tripwire (String that is placed on the ground). When any entity walks through the Tripwire, the Tripwire Hook will trigger a Redstone signal. This can be useful to make traps.
Trivia[]
- Tripwire itself will generate no Redstone signal, it must be connected to a hook to do so.
- Walking through or directly under the Tripwire Hook will not generate a Redstone signal.
- Two Tripwire Hooks can be up to 40 blocks apart when attached.
- Tripwire Hooks have 3 animations: un-attached, attached, and activated.
- Bug: In 1.2, the texture of the Tripwire Hook in the inventory is a 2D version of the Update Game Block, and when placed, it will have the Update Game Block's texture.
