The Stone Button is a small redstone component crafted from a single stone block. When pressed by a player or hit by a projectile, it emits a short redstone pulse before switching back off, making it a simple momentary switch for doors, dispensers, and other mechanisms.

FAQ

What tool do I need to mine a Stone Button?

Any tool works, including bare hands, though a pickaxe breaks it fastest. It always drops itself.

How long does the redstone pulse last?

About one second (10 redstone ticks) after being pressed or triggered by a projectile, then it switches back off.

Can mobs activate a Stone Button?

No. Mobs cannot directly press buttons; only players and projectiles like arrows or wind charges can trigger them.

How is a Stone Button crafted?

One stone block on a crafting grid yields one stone button.
