About Heavy Weighted Pressure Plate
The Heavy Weighted Pressure Plate is a redstone component that measures how much is standing on it. Instead of giving a simple on/off signal like a normal pressure plate, it gets stronger as more entities pile on top. That makes it useful for counting items or mobs in builds.
Key facts:
- Made from iron, making it the less sensitive of the two weighted pressure plates.
- Counts items, players, mobs, and other entities.
- Outputs signal strength in steps of 10 entities: 10 entities give strength 1, 20 give strength 2, up to 15 at 150 entities.
How to get Heavy Weighted Pressure Plate
You can only get a Heavy Weighted Pressure Plate by crafting it. Place two iron ingots side by side in a crafting grid. It is not found naturally or sold by villagers, so mining and smelting iron is the main step before you can make one.
