Description

Warped Pressure Plate is a Nether-wood pressure plate that emits a redstone signal of strength 15 (the maximum) as soon as an entity stands on it. Warped Pressure Plate is crafted from two warped planks placed side by side in one row of the crafting grid, which yields one plate. Warped Pressure Plate was added to Java Edition in 1.16 together with Crimson Pressure Plate, and to Bedrock Edition in 1.16.0, and the plate stacks to 64.

Warped Pressure Plate reacts to players, mobs, dropped items, arrows and experience orbs, but ignores players in spectator mode. After activation, the plate checks every 20 game ticks (one second) whether anyone is still on top and pops back up once the plate is empty. Because Warped Pressure Plate costs only two planks, the plate suits door traps and hidden entrances.

Guide

How to use a Warped Pressure Plate in Minecraft

  1. 1

    Craft the plate

    Two warped planks placed side by side in one row of the crafting grid craft one Warped Pressure Plate.

  2. 2

    Place the plate

    Warped Pressure Plate is placed on top of a block with a full top surface, such as stone, while leaves cannot hold the plate. The side or bottom of a block never holds the plate either.

  3. 3

    Read the signal

    Warped Pressure Plate emits signal strength 15 for as long as a player, mob or dropped item stands on the plate.

  4. 4

    Remove the plate

    Any tool or a bare hand breaks Warped Pressure Plate, and the plate drops as an item, with an axe being the fastest. Removing the block under the plate also makes the plate drop.

Mob spawning

Since Java Edition 1.9 mobs can no longer spawn on pressure plates, so Warped Pressure Plate does not serve as a mob spawn spot.

Frequently asked questions

Can Warped Pressure Plate be used as furnace fuel?

No. Nether wood pressure plates, crimson and warped, cannot burn in a furnace, unlike overworld wooden pressure plates, which smelt 1.5 items each.

Does Warped Pressure Plate work differently from Crimson Pressure Plate?

No. Every type of wooden pressure plate functions exactly the same, so Warped Pressure Plate and Crimson Pressure Plate differ in appearance, not in behavior.

Is Warped Pressure Plate flammable?

No. Warped Pressure Plate is not flammable, and the game tags the plate as non-flammable wood.

Can Warped Pressure Plate be placed on a fence?

Yes. Fences have a center support shape, so Warped Pressure Plate sits on top of a fence.
