A non-mechanical wire plug?

[aklyatne]

Sorry if this has been asked before, but is there a non-mechanical wire plug? It's pretty hard to get a plug on a slider and hydraulic to work properly.

i shure what you mean but if you mean a gate that will on a 1 pass the value and on 0 it will output a 0? if yes use expression

N@Gate
I@Value Button
O@A
Button == 0 -> A = 0;
Button == 1 -> A = Value;

I think he means an alternate way of passing data without having to use a plug or wiring components directly, like a laser wire. I think it's a great Idea and I'm not sure why it hasn't been made before.

... Wait...now that I think of it, you can use rangers set to Output Value, altough I don't know if it works with anything besides constant values...

That?

Hmm.....


Ya know... if you were really creative....


You could have the output sent to an indicator and have a ranger read the output of the indicator.... (use the alpha input of the indicator if you don't want it to flash around)

The only problem is of course if the number is higher than 255 it won't display, but for anything less than 255 it would work.

*you can get it to use numbers greater than 255 by using some math at both ends *


Also i proposed a plug-less contact system for plugs ... but nobody apparently liked the idea enough to care...

I don't mean a transfer system, but just a gate or something to either let data pass through or not. For wireless transfer of data, you can use a radio. I thought about it today, and realized I could just use a relay for what I wanted to do...
