MCPE-28647Redstone torch clock behaviour
Verification builds:
1.2.5.15 Retail
Summary:
Redstone torches will create a clock circuit in certain cases, if the torch in the setup is broken and replaced. Compare the behaviour to the Java version.
Steps to Reproduce:
Example 1:
- Setup the comparator as shown in the screenshot:
- Place an item in the chest
- Break and replace the redstone torch
Example 2:
- Setup a stable circuit as pictured:
- Break and replace one of the redstone torches
Observed Results:
The circuit now acts as a clock.
Expected Results:
In example 1, the output of the comparator should simply cause the redstone torch to become unpowered, instead of creating a clock circuit.
In example 2, the circuit should not begin acting as a clock.

Notes:
torches are on by default. if you place it in a powered blocked then it will turn off immediately but...... comparator / repeater detects super short pulses.
just change the placement order (dont put the torch last)
