Description

A jungle pressure plate is a small wooden pressure plate that matches the look of jungle planks and can trigger redstone when stepped on. It looks like a shallow plank on the ground and sends a short redstone signal when a player or mob steps on it. This makes it useful for simple automatic doors, traps and lighting circuits where you want an easy activation method. Because it is wooden it can also be activated by thrown items and arrows which is handy for remote triggers. Builders use jungle pressure plates to keep the look consistent with jungle wood floors and to hide redstone triggers within the decor of a room. They are simple to craft and easy to place which makes them a favourite for basic automatic systems in wood based builds.

What is Jungle Pressure Plate?

A jungle pressure plate is a wooden trigger block that emits a redstone signal when something steps on it or when an item falls onto it. It behaves like other wooden pressure plates but uses the jungle wood finish to match surrounding jungle planks.
