If I build this structure and connect a dispenser, it is not automatic. But I copied it 1: 1 and also watched 5 videos about it + read comments.
Two years ago it worked for me too. Maybe that was patched?
Redstone has changed a lot in recent years. What should the structure do?
Well, it's automatic. You connect a dispenser, which automatically shoots everything out for you. And when you have a crafting table at hand, you can duplicate it.
So no clock, there's easier than that.
Sure, but that's just used for duplication. I don't know if that's possible with others. Because in EVERY video this construction is used.
A lot has changed in Redstone. You can try jumping into an older version and trying it out there.
What is supposed to automate the structure?
Oh you want to duplicate things?
Yes. But had already preferred this way. Because you have fun with it. It is not easy to go from 3 to 200 diamonds in a few seconds. But you really sit there longer and need practice on it. And at least 11 diamonds.
Sparkofphoenix once made a video to duplicate in Minecraft maybe this can help you further. I've never duplicated in Minecraft.
Yes is stupid too. But you have to do it on the PS3. Since the world is only 5000x5000 and if you play a lot, all diamonds are quickly gone. And that is not the case, you have to duplicate it. Otherwise you will never have diamonds without cheats in this world again.
Much is not possible in 1.15 what went in 1.12 or 1.8
Oh yeah that's really stupid. I don't think I can help you then either. I only know that the duplication is abolished in the Nether Update.
So now I made about 20 stacks out of 18 diamonds.
With redstone circuits something is constantly changing. Unfortunately, this means that old circuits / instructions often no longer work.
If that should be a clock then you just have to flip the lever
What should work there? That's exactly what you built there.
