    How difficult would it be to create a block that logic can be built inside of in order to save space and allow for better trading of logic creations?

    So basically, you have a"motherboard" or "housing" block and when activated it gives you a grid, on that grid you place logic blocks from your inventory and they become icons that can be connected to each other like in a flow chart. These icons give simple feedback to show their function as you make connections so that you can tell if you are doing it correctly. There would also be an interface of some kind that helps establish connections from blocks on the grid to any outside blocks that are needed You then build the logic creation you want in that grid and it consolidates it into the size of one tradable, nameable block: "Elevator computer" "Red Alert system" "Weapon clock" or anything someone can imagine creating.

    That seems a lot more complicated, with an OS and Bobby AI apps than just scaling the existing logic circuits down into a single block or two.
    True, but it sets the stage for future development in a direction that only requires adding more functions without any major rewrite to the game.
