Breaking

The detector drops itself when its block loot table survives an explosion. Its

thin six-pixel collision shape makes it a low profile redstone component.

Ingredients match the published snapshot.

Usage

A daylight detector converts daylight level into a redstone signal and can be inverted. It is useful for automatic lamps, clocks, shutters, and other circuits that react to the changing brightness of the sky.

Data: Usage
Signal range	0–15
Default mode	Stronger signal in brighter sky
Inverted mode	Stronger signal in darker sky
Update interval	Every 20 game ticks

Sounds

The detector uses the wooden pressure-plate sound family for placement, steps,

breaking, falling, and block hits.

Fall	block.wood.fall
Hit	block.wood.hit
Place	block.wood.place
Step	block.wood.step

Behavior

The block samples effective sky brightness and the sun angle, clamps the result

to a redstone level from zero to fifteen, and updates on the server every

second. Using the block toggles its inverted state for players allowed to build.

Data: Behavior
Stack size	64
Solid block	Yes
Map color	wood
Note block instrument	bass
State count	2
State	`power` 0–15 and `inverted` true/false
Signal output	The current `power` state
Inversion	`15 - daylight` before clamping
Update cadence	20 ticks

Data values

The block uses the `minecraft:daylight_detector` identifier and exposes a redstone signal based on sky light. Its inverted state reverses the signal relationship without changing the block's recipe.
