I would like a bet-contraption.

[Dragonheart]

This topic is for people who need help with expression 2 codes. I personally need help making a wire betting station for the arena I made for RP, but anyone can submit any questions, suggestions, or answers. I would like the first question to be about the betting computer. The main idea is to have three small, simple computer-like devices for people to use to bet with. I just need the screens to allow people to select these things: First menu Blue team or yellow team. Second menu $100 $500 or $1000. Third menu Confirm? And thats it. I would like the full code, so include things like the code for display, controls and wiring. Please respond!

Had a conversation with ZeikJT about this post.. I felt like we were ninjaing the thread so I rarred it into:

" help with expression 2" != "I would like the full code, so include things like the code for display, controls and wiring."

I suggest you use textscreens and invisible buttons on them. That seems a nice solution

ZeikJT:
There is an Expression help subforum specifically for help with expression code. This topic really belongs there if you want such specific help.

Hmm, he is not asking for help with EG2.
He wants the entire contraption.

So, I don't see a point of moving it to EG2 forum

Edit: That should be fixed now.

I don't seem to see an EG2 code anywhere

I normally assume, that you first try to build something, and then ask for help with it.

Haha true, but he wants other people to post their queries for help with Exp2 help here too. He wants this to become a help thread specific to it.

I do agree that this would be better done without the exp2 at all though.
Sometimes the simple methods get overlooked because the idea seems complex.

EDIT: Crap, you've already tidied it all up, feel free to delete this post...

Seriously, make a prototype first, any problems you have just come running to us for help with something specific.

Jat Goodwin gets a Idea for a request sub-forum with a script that auto deletes any posts there.

I just made this thread as a help topic, mainly for Expression 2 because it is the most complicated for most people. I also thought I could kill two birds with one stone by asking my original question in the first post, I did not intend for this to be an argue about everything topic. Ask questions first people!

well, i like ur idea and i will build a bet computer. but i think that not e2 is the most complicated but cpu and gpu =), by the way, i'm interested in cpu/gpu tutorials, if someone can help me, pls tell it =)

Expression Help - Wiremod Forums
There is a entire subforum dedicated to expression. What is the point of a topic in a total different location?

Ask questions first people!

People shouldn't need to ask questions first to help you.
You should try to do it yourself first.
If you get stuck, post what you have and ask for help.
Then I (and probably others) would be more then happy to help you out and ask questions if needed.

so, i finished the bet station. it's only a single one and without confirm but i think it's good^^

l3ulletje when I say "ask questions first" I mean if you don't understand ask what I mean and I did try it first but I got frustrated and deleted what I had. Also like I just said understand what people mean when they say something before you make another criticizing post like that I wasn't using an angry tone. Thank you SatansSimon for the help, but I need code and wiring directions. Now, this is a topic for everyone to post their questions answers and suggestions. I include CPU/GPU when I posted the first post but it was late and I forgot.
