   All about how to make a trap in Minecraft and what types of traps you can create in the game.

There are a lot of traps in Minecraft. There are traps with bait, chest traps, camouflaged traps, various types of traps using mines, the so-called lava traps, a falling room, a deadly button and many, many others. In fact, the number of traps is limited only by your ideas and the ability to implement them. In this article, we will consider only some options for traps, plus we will show you some videos on how to make a trap in Minecraft.

Trap chest

When opened, the trap chest signals this. This way you will find out that someone has crept up to you.
  To create it you need to get:

Tension sensor. To create it, you need to have a stick, an iron bar and boards. Recipe below:

A chest. It is crafted using 8 boards and this recipe:

After receiving the chest and tension sensor, use this recipe to craft a trap chest:

Mousetrap

The essence of this trap is simple - to lock a gripper or a mob so that he can no longer roam around the territory. To create this trap, create:

4 doors. To create one door you will need 6 boards or 6 iron ingots, at your discretion. Recipe for crafting:

Pressure plate. To create it, you need 2 boards or 2 stones. Recipe below:

Having collected the necessary materials, install the pressure plate on the surface, and then arrange the doors in this order around the plate:

Then simply mask the doors, making it look like a certain corridor. When an undesirable character steps on the door tension plate, the door slams shut and he cannot get out of the trap.


  Trap "Sex with a Surprise" or Mousetrap-2

To create this kind of trap, you need to have:
  4 pistons. Previously, we already wrote how to make a piston in Minecraft.
  Red stone. It is mined from red ore using a diamond or iron pickaxe.
  Pressure plate. How it is done read above.
  Eight blocks of the fence. We also have material on the site how to make a fence.

After receiving all the “ingredients”, dig a cross-shaped recess in a depth of two blocks and lay a red stone in the center. Install four pistons on the sides, 1 piston on each side. Here's how it should look:

Then install one intake block on each piston. On any red stone that is in the center, install any block, and a pressure plate on it. Thus, we still have 4 blocks of the fence. they need to be installed as shown in the screenshot below:

Congratulations, the mob trap is ready!

As you can see, there are enough options for traps, but the above describes only three ways to create traps. How to make an easy version of a trap, a death trap, a trap for zombies in Minecraft and other types of them, watch the video:

So, if you cannot simultaneously keep every entrance and exit from an enemy invasion, you can safely set traps there. Using a series of sticky pistons and a simple mechanism to create stretch marks in a previously dug deep hole, you can easily catch and even kill any enemy, animal or skeleton who dares to encroach on your fortress.

Do it right

If you did everything right, such a trap will be deadly to the victim. But, since the trap is based on a complex system, which at a certain moment engages a certain mechanism, in the process of constructing the trap itself a lot of work needs to be done and many nuances should be taken into account, such as the delay time of the repeater and the sequence of pistons. Follow these recommendations, and very soon your hidden trap will be ready to send "uninvited guests" to the bed of bedrock.

Stretch Mechanism

The stretching mechanism consists of two tension sensors and a thread connecting them. In this trap, the sensors can be hidden in any accessible recesses of the block, while the thread itself will be practically invisible. The principle of operation of the stretch thread is simple: when a mob or another player steps on the thread, a stretch is triggered, then the current flows through the back of the mechanism, turning off the red torch and deactivating the front of the chain. After that, the stretch will remain intact again until the next intruder falls into the same trap.

Schemes from Redstone

Schemes from Redstone can be divided into two parts. The front end controls the pistons and is powered by a red torch. The back is connected to the stretching mechanism, which was mentioned above. These two sections are divided among themselves by blocks on which the red torch is installed, which is used in the game to activate various mechanisms. In this case, the red torch acts as an intermediary between the two sections, thereby indicating that they will never be activated at the same time.

Repeaters and Beats

The red repeater can be changed by the player in order to create a delay in the operation of the Redstone signal in the circuit. As you know, the delay of the red repeater is 1 clock Redstone (these are two game clocks). In Minecraft, this figure can be increased to 4 measures of Redstone, but no more. In this scheme, repeaters delay signals in various mechanisms, therefore, they will be triggered at different times, thereby allowing the player to create more complex piston systems.

Ordered pistons

When the “uninvited guest” falls into the trap, it interrupts the current in the pistons in front of the trap, and they begin to move. The repeater delays the current in the pistons, creating a sequence: first, the upper vertical pistons are closed, building them and four more floors of blocks of stone - brick slabs in a line with horizontal pistons. As soon as the vertical pistons are triggered, the horizontal block mechanisms are deactivated, while the vertical pistons and blocks of the brick slab are elongated in one line, opening a massive break below. When the mechanism is activated again, the process goes in the opposite direction, replacing the floors of blocks of stone - brick slabs.

Mask the trap

Now that the mechanism is built, you need to properly hide the trap. The mechanism goes 3 blocks deep, it is 10 blocks wide and 8 blocks long; therefore, it needs to be placed in a foundation pit of an appropriate size under a hall or room, which will later serve as a trap. The pit under the vertical pistons can be as deep as the player himself wishes, and also, if desired, it can be filled with either lava or cacti to inflict more damage to the enemy at the time of the fall.

Translation of a manual from Exploded Builds: Medieval Fortress.

Build a medieval map, some kind of fortress or something like that in Minecraft? Then we recommend that you study this guide, with which you can make a "room of arrows", which is perfect as a trap on your map!



The arrow room is one of the simplest traps that you can add to your castle or something else.

Redstone Location

The room is divided into two sections: lower and upper. Distributors should be installed in the upper section, and red dust, torches and repeaters in the lower section. Each time the player steps up on the pressure plate, a redstone signal will be triggered, so the distributor will shoot arrows.


Upon receiving the signal, all distributors on both sides will immediately be activated. This means that the victim (if the player is in survival mode) will not have a chance to get out of the trap.

Rapid pulse mechanism

The mechanism consists of three blocks on which red dust and red torches are placed. When you press the pressure plate, the redstone signal passes through the entire grid of red dust and turns off and turns on the mechanism several times, which allows distributors to shoot arrows several times.

Pressure plates

On a solid block, you must place a pressure plate, and under it you will need to place red dust. Since a red dust grid will be placed throughout the room, which activates all distributors, it will be very difficult to get out of the trap for the victim.


You can also expand the room, making life more difficult for intruders, but remember to place red dust, pressure plates, and dispensers.

The most important thing that you should remember is that the redstone signal can be transmitted over a distance of 15 blocks, so you will need to place repeaters to fix this problem. Below in the screenshot you can see an example of placing two repeaters, two more you will need to place on opposite sides of the room.

Pit

The pit is simple trap, and the main difficulty is to disguise it. This can be achieved by using pistons for the sliding cover. You can also do this: dig a hole wider and deeper and leave a layer of earth with a thickness of 3 blocks, covering it. Between the first and third layer lay dynamite, and above it a pressure plate. If dynamite explodes, it will destroy the layer of earth and the pit will open.

However, this is very noticeable, and dynamite needs time to explode after activation, so it’s worth somehow detaining an uninvited guest.

Some grippers use cheats that allow them to survive when falling from a height, so put more surprises to the bottom.

Trap with a picture

Many players arrange secret passages in their houses for paintings: they are large in size, it is simply impossible to see through them, and you can keep them on tablets or doors through which you can go. Naturally, a smart thief will not miss a chance to check them. This kind minecraft traps  playing on curiosity.

The trap is very simple: it is necessary to make the passage “hidden” by the picture, as usual, but any mechanism of killing must follow the passage.

On the visualization scheme minecraft traps  the above implies a deep (about 25 blocks) pit, but it can be both a cactus and lava (though if it is located close to the "passage", then it is audible, but it can be "drowned out", if near the same place and so a lot of lava), and any other way.

pros

  • Invisible.
  • Relatively inexpensive to build.
  • Reusable.

Minuses

  • The gripper can try to go through the passage, crouching (then he will not fall).

Solution: Make a pressure plate that is connected to the pistons (push their role into the trap).

  • The gripper can break the picture.

Feed hopper trap

In the mechanics of the game, minecraft provides a huge number of traps, the choice of which is limited by your imagination and what you have in your inventory. The more complex the trap, the more complex and less accessible ingredients will be required. In addition, traps vary in purpose. Some should be used to capture creatures, some are only suitable for the protection of your treasures.

How to make a trap in minecraft
Trap chest  - nothing more than an alarm that is installed on the chest with your favorite treasures. But first, this same chest needs to be made, for which you will need eight boards that need to be placed in a square shaped craft window. Then you will need to make a tension sensor, for this you need to acquire an iron ingot, boards, and a stick. To get the desired item, place the specified items in the middle of the crafting window horizontally. Then you need to collect a trap. To do this, connect two objects, with the chest in front.

Mousetrap - a trap in the full sense of the word, which should be used to capture a monster. Outwardly, the trap looks very effective, as it is a sturdy wooden box with the same sturdy door. To make this trap, you will need to create four doors from six boards and six iron ingots, placing them throughout the central and left parts of the crafting window. You will also need to create a pressure plate, which will require two boards and two stones. They will occupy the entire lower right side of the crafting window.

After the components are ready, the pressure plate should be placed on the ground in the place where you want to create a trap and place doors around it. Moreover, they should be upright. In addition, each door will look into one of the parts of the world - north, south, west, east. Then you should show imagination - the doors will need to be masked.
  The principle of operation of the trap is extremely simple. If the victim steps on the pressure plate, the doors slam shut, preventing it from escaping.

Paul with a surprise  - a somewhat complicated in comparison with a mousetrap, but no less effective trap, for the manufacture of which it will be required: four pistons, a red stone, a pressure plate, and eight fence blocks. How to make these items has been described above, so do not repeat it, but rather go straight to the description of the manufacturing process.

The first thing to do is dig a cruciform indentation in the ground and put a red stone in its center. In addition, a piston should lie on each side in the recess. Then the pistons must be covered with blocks of fences. Red stone will also need to be covered. Than - you decide. It can be any block. The trap is ready.
