Beta Mods & Challenges v1.0.0

Redstone Debugger

Record, visualize, and analyze redstone circuits with professional tooling.

Beta · In active development (v1.0.0, build phase 60). Real-time signal debugging with recorder, graph engine, analysis algorithms, overlays, and cross-version bridges for 15 Minecraft versions.

Why it exists

Purpose

Redstone is the most complex thing you can build in Minecraft, yet debugging it means staring at torches. Redstone Debugger records circuit activity, replays it, and analyzes it — turning redstone engineering into something you can inspect, not guess.

Who it's for

Technical builders, map makers, redstone engineers, educators teaching redstone logic, and automation designers.

Key capabilities

Circuit recorder

Records redstone events into a timeline with atomic tick ranges.

Diagnostic engine

A heuristic analyzer that identifies signal paths, problems, and scoring.

Replay & analysis

Step through recorded timelines to understand exactly what happened.

AI-assisted insights

Optional AI providers (including local Ollama) help explain circuit behaviour.

Features

Everything Redstone Debugger does

12 features across 4 categories — all real, all working.

Recording

Circuit Recorder

Records redstone events into a timeline with atomic tick ranges.

25 Event Types

Wire, lever, repeater, comparator, observer, torch, button, piston, pressure plate and more.

Auto-Stop

Recording auto-stops at extreme event counts to protect performance.

Analysis

Diagnostic Engine

Heuristic analyzer that identifies signal paths, problems, and scoring.

12 Analysis Algorithms

Signal tracing, dependency chains, root cause, SCC cycles, critical path, clock detection.

Timeline Replay

Step through recorded timelines to understand exactly what happened.

AI-Assisted Insights

Optional AI providers (including local Ollama) explain circuit behaviour.

Visualization

World Overlays

Visual overlays showing signal states directly in the world.

HUD Overlays

In-game HUD showing recording status and diagnostics.

Export

Export recordings for later analysis or sharing.

Commands

/rdebug Suite

Recorder, timeline, clear, export and perf commands.

Performance Manager

Profiler, metrics, caching and memory monitoring.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Does it slow the game down?

The recorder is lightweight and auto-stops at extreme event counts, backed by a performance manager with profiler, metrics, caching and a memory monitor.

Do I need an AI provider?

No — all core diagnostics work fully offline. AI insights are an optional add-on.

Is it server-side or client-side?

It operates client-side; recording is single-player oriented.

What can it record?

25 event types via mixins — wire, lever, repeater, comparator, observer, torch, button, piston, pressure plate and more.

Is there a command interface?

Yes — /rdebug covers recorder, timeline, clear, export and perf, plus world and HUD overlays.

Can it explain my circuit?

Yes — the AnalysisEngine runs 12 algorithms (signal tracing, dependency chains, root cause, SCC cycles, critical path, clock detection) and can call an optional AI provider (including local Ollama).
