Why not with C? If you can select a logic block and see it's slave, then it would make sense to be able to see it's master as well. If you want to make connections in reverse, why not do what Valck suggests and use C to select the block, and ALT-V to make a reverse connection?

Hello, and welcome to the community!

This would make complex mechanisms much easier to debug. All for this idea!

Thanks for the tips. I wonder though, how does one handle switching logic within a pipeline? I would imagine you need safeguards to prevent you from running code that would normally be bypassed. I have looked up the subject, and it gave me a few ideas. The more I read it, the more hazardous my...

takethispie Yeah, that thing was pretty awesome looking. I have considered pipelining, so that I could try to get it to perform multiple operations at once. Yeah, the architecture I am using does have some quirks. The point of it was to keep the thing compact enough to put in a ship, or a...

Update: Not anything worth a pic, just a quick update on the Cortex. I had, after much frustration, decided to simplify the CU a bit. Basically, I removed most of it's flexibility with reading code, and adopted a more rigid setup. I was trying to get it to load up the caches with register...

Earlier today, the site went completely down on my side. Just relieved that it's over now. I wonder, did the site go down completely for the data migration, or was that the result of technical difficulties?

I am aware that this is two months old, but when I saw 6ngb's post about triggers not registering empty ships, I went and tested it for myself. I have GIF evidence that it does work: I think the reason this misconception exists is because triggers only trigger when a group first collides with a...

Saber, how does the new LOD system work, and what is the extent of your involvement with its development? Are there plans to use a LOD system to help disguise the loading of planets?

It is already quite big, so I do not have any plans to include it, however, I am trying my best to allow players to attach peripherals like this. In fact, I can say with near certainty that you will be able to attach things like this. I have actually thought about wireless programming, and the...

Update, I realized that I needed to set up the I/O if I was going to make every command in order of appearance: It may look lopsided, for I decided I needed an exploded view so that I could still have easy access to the CU. Don't worry, I will paste everything in the correct place when I'm...

Another update: After resolving the sudden amnesia, I began working on the CU. So far I got only two commands working, but both of them were difficult to implement. The first one that I worked on was GOTO. What made this difficult was that it is actually part of the program timer, not the CU...

Usually. Sometimes I get an error, but I have not been able to find anything wrong with the circuits afterward.

Yes, the logic takes a long time to connect, however, copy/paste is your friend. It allowed me to build up the memory cells in a relatively short time, and allowed me to simply paste down many of the components so that I didn't waste time recreating them. Anyway, I'm off to resolve the cortex's...

A quick update, and sadly a step backwards: I am redoing the memory cells to use OR blocks in the memory bus, as opposed to the glitchy activator blocks. I kept getting really weird signals and glitches with the bus, so after failed attempts to add a noise terminator, I decided that an overhaul...

/\/\ I had almost built an entire computer before I realized that the activation modules in my memory cells wouldn't cut it. So I thought that it would be convenient to simply swap out the activation module memory buses with OR blocks. Not so simple. Completely undid all the memory connections...

I plan to put it in a giant robot. No idea. The most laggy part is the program memory buffer. It barely handles 2hz... But I only have to run the memory components at 2hz(I think, never done this kind of thing before), even with the 4hz timer. Basically only the first and last clock cycles are...

Logic Cortex model A: Logic Cortex My first functioning computer in starmade.

The new console blocks came out, so I added them in. Does not make a huge difference. Just aesthetic.

Hmm, This makes me want to try to play on a server again...
