When you design and build your home, do not forget about such a necessary thing as a patio. It can be made both solely for decorative purposes and be of practical value. For example, do not let pets run away or, conversely, keep monsters out of the house. Having built a fence around the territory you need, you will definitely need to erect a gate. After all, you must admit that each time you will get tired of jumping over the fence quickly enough. We are all human and accustomed to comfort. There are no useless things in Minecraft, and now we will prove it to you.
Collection of materials
Minecraft crafting wickets do not require any special or rare materials. You don’t even need a tool if you have patience, because you can cut a tree with your bare hands if you have patience. But we still need a workbench.
In total, we need two blocks of wood to make a gate. A bit, right? In this case, one block will go to create a workbench. Therefore, we go to the nearest forest and cut down a couple of blocks for ourselves. The main thing is to remember that the color of the boards and the final product will depend on what kind of wood you used. Therefore, be careful when collecting. Although for the first time wood of any shade will come down, let alone the selection of colors to do, as there will be free time.
Craft
So, how is the gate in Minecraft? To start, create a workbench. To do this, in the inventory, re-craft one block of wood into four units of boards. After that, place one board in each cell of the inventory crafting interface. Put the finished workbench on the ground.
The next stage is direct crafting. The gate in "Minecraft" is created from sticks and boards. Therefore, on a workbench, recraft the second block of wood into four boards. You need to make sticks out of them. To do this, place 2 packs of boards on a workbench with a column, one above the other. You will receive the material you are looking for.
Now you have everything you need to create a gate. Once again, use a workbench. Place objects in the center and bottom line in the following order: stick - board - stick. You should have a wicket.
Application
The gate in "Minecraft" is placed exclusively on solid blocks. Therefore, if you want to create a door, as in taverns of westerns, then put any block on the ground, on top of it a gate, and then remove the lower one.
To open the gate, right-click on it. An interesting fact is that on the gates, as on the door, you can hang different objects. For example, pictures. This way you can make a secret passage.
In addition, you can make the gate an element of the wall, at a height of 1-2 blocks from the floor. Then its purpose will change a little, you can use it as a loophole. That is, if the monsters came too close to the house, then just open the gate in the wall and shoot them from the bow.
The gate in Minecraft is an analog of a door. You can open it not only with your hands, but also with levers, buttons and pressure plates. However, you will not be able to make a double gate in full human growth, like a door. The gate is not considered a solid block and you can’t put one on the other.
conclusions
Despite the obvious advantages, the gate at Minecraft is a controversial subject. It will not allow you to securely lock yourself in your house, its strength is many times lower than at the door, and monsters can see you through it. And from the point of view of aesthetics, the use of a gate as a window is doubtful. If you are building a castle, then it will be much better to use a grill, but the choice, as always, is yours. Show your imagination, and perhaps you can find the best application for this element. Good luck in the game and the development of the cubic world. And may Herobrine be with you friends!
