|

BuildCraft gates are devices which can be attached to a pipe to detect and interact with objects nearby. Gates
|
||||
can read a wide variety of conditions: that a nearby chest is full, or that a [Combustion
|
||||
Engine](/browse/buildcraft/combustion_engine) is about to overheat. In reaction to these conditions, gates can
|
||||
emit various kinds of signals (including redstone signals) to control other gates and/or machines.

|

Before diving into all the details, let's look at a realistic example of what you might do with gates. This is a
|
||||
small power plant driving a quarry.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
Here are the important pieces of the build:
|
||||
|
||||
1. The on/off switch for the entire operation. Flipping the switch creates a redstone signal.
|
||||
2. A [Basic Gate](/browse/buildcraft/basic_gate/) attached to a [Structure Pipe]
|
||||
(/browse/buildcraft/structure_pipe) reads the redstone signal and generates a red pipe wire signal.
|
||||
3. [Red Pipe Wire](/browse/buildcraft/red_pipe_wire) follows the [Cobblestone Kinesis Pipe]
|
||||
(/browse/buildcraft/cobblestone_kinesis_pipe), transmitting the signal throughout the rest of the build.
|
||||
4. Another Basic Gate receives the red pipe wire signal and converts it back to a redstone signal, thus turning
|
||||
the [Combustion Engine](/browse/buildcraft/combustion_engine)s on.
|
||||
5. The red pipe wire signal is also received by Basic Gates next to the [Redstone
|
||||
Engine(/browse/buildcraft/redstone_engine)s, turning them on as well, and causing both fuel and water to
|
||||
flow into the engines.
|
||||
6. Finally, the power generated by the Combusion Engines flows into the [Quarry](/browse/buildcraft/quarry/).
