Player information feedback block

It would be nice to have a logic block that could output a signal based on player status like, is the player in the gravity of an entity.

or just add more tags to the display module and solve the issue of needing more blocks.

Display blocks do not output logic though >_>

This is where making it so they are able to comes in handy. Say linking the logic to a display block and having the right tags in place would allow someone to see what the state of that logic block or blocks is.

Right, sorry I wrote the OP on the way out the door from work.

I was thinking for instance a way of checking if a player is already in the gravity of an object before applying gravity to them. For example on my base all of the entrances have automatic gravity but when I log out and back in gravity is lost. I forget this sometimes. It would be nice that when I exit the station the automatic gravity could be smart enough to know oh wait FatCobra isn't in my gravity I won't apply gravity to him now.

I think this can be done with area triggers but it takes up more space than it should and gets really annoying later.

Oh, I think I see what you're saying using a combination of area triggers and step triggers would make it possible to determine if a player is in gravity. Good thinking. Thanks
