Disconnect Magnetic Connectors on Demand with Redstone
Wire Redstone to Your Magnetic Connector
Magnetic connectors stay linked until you send them a redstone signal. Attach a redstone wire, lever, button, or repeater to the magnetic block. Any of these power sources will trigger an instant disconnect.
Automate Docking and Undocking
Use a redstone comparator, observer, or timer to create automatic separation sequences. For example:
- Place an observer watching a resource container
- When the container fills, the observer sends a pulse to the magnetic connector
- The ships separate automatically
Manual Control
For simple on-demand disconnection, attach a lever directly to the magnetic connector. Flip it whenever you want to break the link. The ships will separate immediately without damaging pipes or cables.
Re-establishing the Connection
Once disconnected, simply turn off the redstone signal and move the ships close again. The magnetic connectors will snap back together automatically.
