Walking Ranger  of the Dūnedain  Join my Adventure i cant even imagine trying to make a rope and pulley system with redstone mechanics, redstone signal degrades every block, so you would have to set the starting signal to 9999999999 so it will never stop because it is a pulley and i think that is built in the mechanics so you cant get rid of that, also the are other mechanics like area powering, that is where the redstone would power all the blocks around a block and, instant redstone circuit power, that is the fact that redstone can travel infinite blocks in one tick if set up right, redstone loops, that is whare redstone can power redstone in a loop with out a power source, and redstone does not know ware the signal started from or how meny signals there are, with a real pulley and rope system, the speed of the rope is a ratio between how meny pulleys there were and how meny pulleys are turning on there own would increase the more pulleys in the system turning on there own, and i dont think you can even get the system to start unless one of the pulleys were turning,

Bottem Line: redstone mechanics was made by notch for redstone, and the mechanics are not logical or realistic for a rope and pulley system
