FAQ
What tool do I need to mine an Oak Button?
None — it can be broken by hand instantly, though an axe is the fastest tool.
How long does an Oak Button stay powered?
A player press keeps it powered for about 1.5 seconds; an arrow or trident keeps it powered until the projectile despawns.
Can mobs press an Oak Button?
Not directly by walking into it, but arrows fired by skeletons can trigger it.
Is the Oak Button flammable?
No — unlike some wooden blocks, buttons made from Overworld wood types do not catch fire from nearby flames.
