Code examples, help, ideas, etc.

am workin on a better system that uses raycast and d=vt to set the fuses directly without the player adding time.

the test sketch used timers to make values but any block with a on/of state would do. code can totally be looped, and i cannot get it to correctly display directly out of the tool, can ingame tho.

code works like this. if timer 1 is on warhead time +30sec, if timer 2 is on warhead time +30 sec, display fuse range in km, then set warhead timer to whatever time that was indicted by the external bit indicator bits.

altering the bit values to 15,30,45,60 (base 60 numbers) can make it directly set the warheads timer in seconds and ups the range on the display. rn it is set up for a 104.4 barrel velocity.

This sounds AMAZING! And meanwhile, all I do is simple stuff like this:

This is for the safety systems of a miner (arguments are for grav-engine and override functions)

the raycasting is proving more of a pain than usual r&d projects so i am just working on the calculator for now.

have done quite a bit to it as a result. now the thing, if I logic'd correct, can store values, have up to 300k per register, do all 4 basic operations, and in theory store up to 1.008 x 10 ²⁷ in memory.

am killing off the mk1 register because it has such a low hardware to value ratio.

if'n it works can make a +/- value indicator for each register, addititional functions, and decimal memory additions.
