Thank you guys ^^. After you helped me with this I was able to find things a little better but when I asked a friend in real life, he told me that I should be looking at the "Y" number instead of Z. Still, that was pretty much the idea and I was able to find some diamonds now.

Thanks again! ^^

Ack, sorry! xC
I get them confused ;____;
Glad you got some diamonds! ~

I really should get back into playing mine craft ._. But I get lonely playing alone, lol ^^"

 

[toastia]

Lithia, if you ever wanna play, leave me a VM or a PM xD

I want to play factions, anyone else wanna play?

I was never too fond of faction servers.

I find it completely impossible to play Minecraft without loading it full of mods. The vanilla game is just so flipping boring.

Plus with a lot of newer survival/creative/voxel games coming out and that have been coming out I haven't really seen a reason to play it since it's pretty much died out and there are better games out now.

But I used to play it quite a lot a while back.

I came home, wanted to play Minecraft, but the game was updated and it's taking a lot to download with my slow internet.

Ah well, in the meantime, can I get some help? I'm trying to figure out how to make a switch thing that would automatically transport a rail with a chest to a different place. I created the rail and wagon themselves, and I built a lever thing to try to send it to another "station" I built, but I am not having any luck. How do I manage to build "automatic" things like this? Toggling my lever does nothing.

I was reading and I need "Redstone". I found a lot of Redstone and I read some tutorials. I am slow with these things and turns out you can create actual circuits, which my brothers see in Engineering school x_X so I'm not sure if I will be able to understand them.

Anyway, I was thinking that I could build a rail using redstone and magically make my lever work to move the wagon along my rails. But the only rail I could build was a Powered Rail and nothing that would make my lever work to push the wagon.

 

[toastia]

Could you rephrase that? You can't automatically flip a lever, you have to use redstone torches, etc. It'll be kinda complicated. If you can rephrase that I bit, I may be able to help you.

 

[Leanne]

Oh sorry, I am in dumb English mode today ^^;

I just want to move a wagon on my rail automatically by using a lever. Like, I manually move the lever, and then the wagon thing moves alone on my rails to a different destination automatically.

 

[toastia]

I can help you with that! Do you want a server that we can meet on so that I can show you? Or would you rather me just take screenshots and post it here?

 

[Leanne]

Can you post screenshots? I tried playing in a server some friends got a few weeks ago but my internet kept disconnecting me and made it impossible to play there. Thank you! ^^;

 

[toastia]

OK! I will post screenshots, it'll be here in a few secs :3

 

[Leanne]

Thank you! Take your time as my Minecraft is really taking a while to update and I cannot play it right now x.X .

Oh my god! You can stop doing that now hahaha. I managed to do it!

Everything I had to do was to make a powered rail the first rail, then place my wagon there, and when toggling the switch, the wagon will be pushed away by it and move ^^. I can't believe I missed this. It's really obvious now that I think of it.

Thank you for your help! ^^
