Weighted Pressure Plate

Weighted Pressure Plates are items that were added in Update 0.13.0. Weighted Pressure Plates differ from regular Pressure Plates because a specific amount of entities standing on it is required to produce power.

Types
There are two types of Weighted Pressure Plates.

Light
The "light" pressure plate is the gold pressure plate. Most mobs alone can produce a signal when standing on it. Each entity gives a power signal.

Heavy
The "heavy" pressure plate is the iron pressure plate. It will usually take more than one entity alone to produce a signal. 11 entities gives a power signal.

Crafting

Trivia

 * Weighted pressure plates give out power for ½ a second rather than 1.
 * When not activated, weighted pressure plates will be 1⁄16 of a block. However, when it's activated, it will be 1/32 of a block.
 * Light pressure plates can be activated be an arrow or a fishing rod.
 * Weighted pressure plates are useful in controlling power signals since specific numbers of entities can give a power signal, unlike the wood and stone variant that gives 15 power output.
 * Arrows or Fishing Rods can be an effective way to power Weighted Pressure Plates since each arrows give a power signal, controlling the power given will be easier.
