Quasi connectivity (a.k.a MC-108) doesn't exist.
Steps to reproduce :
-Place a piston
-Place two blocks on top of the piston
-Power the top block
-Update the piston
-Notice that the piston doesn't extend.

@unknown MC-108 (Quasi connectivity) is resolved as intended for PC, but it was a bug, now that pe has the observer, that behaviour is removed.
That's sad 😞. But how does adding the observer justify removing quasi connectivity ? And why is this "invalid" if it works as intended ?
and will PE and PC ever have the same piston mechanics ?
Because the observer is littirally a bud, the budded pistons was a bug and the behaviour has been replaced by the observer, need any more justification?
No quasi connectivity works on all versions of minecraft EXCEPT pocket. I've tested this on PSVita, PS3, Xbox360, XboxONE, and PC by building the jeb door on all those platforms and it works flawlessly. Its a shame pocket has to miss out on this.
Who said it was intended ?
It has finally been confirmed by the developers that the absence of Quasi-connectivity is, in fact, not a bug, and that the new observer block replaces its function.

I'll be fine with this as soon as you give a link to a place where the developers say that.
The devs did. I can't link you to it because it is not a public area where the dev said it. Guys, please realize that us mods DO NOT want to get rid of tickets as fast as possible, neither do we try to. When we resolve a ticket, we are physically telling the devs that the ticket doesn't need attention anymore, and we take that seriously. Yes, we make mistakes sometimes, but please trust our inputs. We aren't inexperienced, we ALL have been playing MCPE long before we became a mod, and we are, generally, correct in what we say.
Quasi connectivity is a bug but the devs kept it in the game because java players used it for most contraptions. However that does not mean that it is an intended feature.
I know this has been closed for a long time, but it would be nice if we at least got 1ticking as a result of this, as most monostable circuits either do not work or are too big to implement easily. Pistons ‘forgetting’ blocks is arguably the best feature in pc and I feel bedrock is let down by this. Also not being able to easily build job doors is a massive hit, surely the pistons could be powered through each other with observers (as if one piston was a normal block instead) but this doesn’t happen either. This massively limits the only easy version of Redstone I haveÂ
Works as intended, quasi-connectivity is a bug (unfortunately D: )
