so i assume a lot of you guys know how to make those iron door locks, where some must be up, the others down, and the button opens the door with the right combo.
and with the memory gate thing:
red wool is block with redstone torch on it, flower is RS wire, and the inverter.
well, i think I discovered a way to skip the memory gate, and make it compact. as shown in this diagram.
top floor/level
bottom floor/level
the feather is a powered lever, the flint is an unpowered lever, blank space is what it is, half-step the button, iron bar the door, cobble the wall, wood is the pressure plate, red wool is the redstone torch, the flower is redstone wire, book shelf is where i connect the two floors. (so when you get to the books part, dig down a few, enough to get the redstone torch under the door, and continue at the next bookshelf.) what im trying to say is, get redstone to go down two blocks, then follow the second diagram so the redstone torch is under your door.
Woah, did not know we finally got the redstone forums. if i'd known, i'd have used it. sorry.
Yeah, this is a relatively simple way of doing things. It's basically putting a not gate on the choices you don't want. I'm pretty sure this has been done before, but props for figuring it out on your own :smile.gif:

Notch could replace Minecraft.net with goatse tomorrow and never publish an update again; the only legal recourse I have is to shake my fist at the screen.
i spent forever on youtube and google looking for how to do it, they all said use those memory gates or whatever, they never EVER worked for me, so i just ripped out my redstone, and did it myself, which worked without the memory whatever.

The next sentence is a lie. The first sentence is the truth.
Yeah, but with the more complex ones you have buttons, any size keypad/combination, and it needs to be in the correct order.
But gratz on your first lock.
simple, but not secure. Levers on locks aren't secure in minecraft because they are easy to flick through to decipher the combo and if someone sees you entering your code, the secret is definitely out. Better locks use buttons with memory gates. The best locks use a cascading pattern of memory gates and and gates to make the code order-sensitive.
