The purpose of floodgates are similar to that of water gates, but they are constructed differently. The signal is commonly a lever, so that when it is on the pistons extend, and when it is off they retract. The pistons are then wired to a redstone signal that controls when they are on or off. Also, for a channel only 1-block wide, just one piston will work fine. Sticky pistons with an additional block stuck to them can be used for wider channels. The gate is simply two pistons facing into the channel that, when extended, occupy the channel and prevent water from flowing. ![]() This can be done by digging it out of the ground or by placing walls on the ground. To create a water gate, the first thing to do is to create the channel. The gate itself is a device made of pistons that blocks the water flow. The channel is a small trench that guides the water where you want it to go. ![]() The water source can be a lake, ocean, pond, or even just a water bucket dumped at the beginning of the channel. There are three parts to a water gate: The water source, the water channel, and the gate. However, beware that in the Overworld and the End, lava does not flow nearly as fast or as far as water. ![]() The concepts discussed in this section are equally applicable to lava.
