Hey, guys! I recently started playing on Opticraft and thus far have really enjoyed my experience. So thank you, donators and operators, for the experience.

Yesterday I decided to build a hidden door using sticky pistons attached to smooth-stone blocks. I managed to get all the redstone working and decided to make my input signal be destroying a particular stone block. In other words, I break a stone block and the door opens. I have made this kind of door before on my own server and decided to resolve the issue of manually replacing the destroyed block by using a piston to push a stone block back into place as well as a smooth-stone generator to regenerate the block. However, upon requesting a mod to place a water and lava source block in my house, I was informed that such a generator was not allowed.

I can understand why generators are not permitted. However, my intention is to use this device solely to create a new block for my door whenever I choose to open it. I will only use it whenever I want to open the door and in fact cannot even harvest the dropped blocks from it, since they fall into a pit.

So why is this secret door so important to me? Well, for two reasons. First of all, I was griefed shortly after I had built the larger portion of my house and, being new to the server, did not know what to do. I asked everyone if mods would help or if I was supposed to just pay for the damages myself. Of course, I was ignored (drowned out by all the other messages, I assume), so I just repaired it myself. This was not a pleasant experience, so I decided that the best way to protect my most valuable possessions is to hide them, hence the secret door.
The second reason is it's just plain cool. Seriously, I like having a rather small house with tons of secrets stowed inside. It just makes the game more satisfying for me.

So, to sum it all up, I would appreciate someone allowing me to possess a smooth-stone generator for the sole purpose of operating a hidden door. I can understand the decision if it happens to be "no," but I believe I will understand it a great deal if it turns out to be "yes."

Thanks,
