It's a nice use of the new conveyor belts but a lot of people already have hoik based setups for item delivery in their farms. If you liked the statue farm aspect of it here is a build that maximizes the statue farm potential.

I too love the bunny port more than I thought I would. I am seriously considering ripping out my newly built logic gate one for this.... I think it would be fun.

Actually both terms could really be used here depending on what your source data represents i think o_O A multiplexer (MUX) by definition is a device that combines multiple analog/digital signals into one signal over some medium. The demultiplexer (DMUX) does the reverse, unpacking the original...

I'm not sure what the dart traps are for. With the proper relay setup any circuit will work without smoking. @ZeroGravitas I was hoping your response was going to be an update to your transistor setup that did multiplication as well. You should! This explains it really simply. Just hook a...

The delay gates are usually referred to as buffer gates iirc. And yes those would be an amazing addition! But honestly as I said @ZeroGravitas 's transistor approach is sufficient for most everything. I am currently working on a full blown 4-bit processor with it's own instruction set and I...

H'mm, can't your display simply check for new data on the clock pulse as well? I don't understand why the display needs to continuously read from the bus?

Sorry I should of posted this here sooner. Shortly after working on this we discovered Unicorn Engines. These new engines don't rely on multiple agents and can generate a max of 2,160 activations per second.

blocks that are actuated into the background DO NOT stop spawns. The game ignores them and checks the next block under them. Additionally mobs can spawn in front of actuated blocks, they do not count as a background wall. *Edit changed some wording for clarity*

Hmm interesting. There is a chance that the converyor belts ARE valid spawn areas and if so they likely read as normal forest biome like a platform does. In this case the game may go to spawn a creature, see the only valid block is a conveyor belt, and then cancel the spawn since it won't spawn...

Cool I'm glad someone is working on a full-fledged CPU. Would it also be possible for you to post the logic diagrams and schematics for the processor as you work on it and expand it? Just as with a messy breadboard, it's easier to follow whats going on with the logic diagrams next to it. Also...

This design has the same issue and as such isn't really usable in a larger system. The solution I posted on your thread is the same design as what the OP posted here, I just built top down as opposed to left-right. For simplicity here is the final 4-bit full-adder that can handle simultaneous...

Hmm i think it depends on how you construct it @ZeroGravitas . I've gone back and fourth on this in my head and think your version is probably sufficient in most scenarios. But there are times you would need to handle the operation within a single clock cycle, in which case a combinational...

@Hundjäger18 spawns can occur in mid air, the type of mob that spawns is determined by the first valid block directly below it, but they will never spawn over player placed backwall.

This is how the terraria spawn box works (note the player position is collapsed into a single point): When a spawn occurs, the type of mob that spawns is not determined by the biome the player is in (normally) but instead by the type of block a mob spawns over. If you have a row of ice you...

Why not put two target dummy's in your player chambers and just afk while bouncing on slime mounts? You would be 100% safe to afk then, and you could even let the mobs walk into you since the saddle does additional summon damage.
