    scrolling text on a programmable text board

    I remember trying to do this and then giving up, so congratulations for pulling it off!

    Ideal Engine

    For an activation every 30 ticks, wouldn't that be a looping hoik track with 30 teeth, and one pressure plate somewhere on the track?

    [Challenge/Prodject] Can we make a boss fight?

    Maybe this could be useful? I was working on a simplified Undertale-style "bullet hell" arena, but I was too busy in real life to have bothered completing it. The key concept is using actuated sand. A player standing in sand blocks takes damage. A player standing in actuated sand blocks does...

    PC How to switch binary to decimal

    To start somewhere, have a look at this thread: https://forums.terraria.org/index.php?threads/6-bit-binary-to-decimal-conversion-using-only-logic-gates.52913/#post-1162014 Also, Dicemanx made a video back in 2015. It is out of date and pre-1.3.1, but try visiting the world download to see how...

    Showcase [Showcase] Cyclic memory and scrolling text

    Using the compact version, could the whole thing be completely tileable (minus whatever's on the edges, like the timer, etc.)?

    PC AFK Pinky Farming?

    I'm not sure I understand: What is it that renders teleporters unideal? Seeing as they can -separate regular enemies (who can be teleported) and bosses (who cannot), -instantly bring enemies from a spawn surface as big as the entire valid spawn surface to a kill area (Via a giant floor made of...

    Animation

    Video: While fixing and compressing my previous display machine, I decided that displaying many images in rapid sequence might be as useful as selecting images to load. It only took a bit of messing the the input mechanism, and I had made a simple animation, given the limits of a monochrome...

    PERFECT 3x5 (4xN) pixel display!

    Your compact, worthy of the term perfect, 4xN display has solved a riddle I've been working on for a long time. A great realization in screen compactness has been brought about thanks to you: A torch, gemspark block, or any 2-state mechanism may be covered by multiple wires but still remain...

    Showcase [Showcase] Prototype: Displayable Character set

    I could have waited. I could have taken the time to put my clean-up plans into action. I could have brought a fantastic, clean and working device that is easily replicable for everyone on T-MEC, instead of this mess of confounding, miraculously functional wires. But who has the time or patience...

    PC Serializing data - save wire, space and nerves

    Thanks for the previous answers; I'm back again to annoy you ('you' includes anyone who understands this). I have my 32-bit signal which I would like to place through a transistor (to return either the input signal or no pulse); can I do this on a single wire without ruining it for the...

    Fully manipulable (And expandable) 5x5 Display

    I've also been working on a display sort of thing (see my post here), and while we're talking displays, here is my current dot matrix display. It is expandable horizontally, and is, as I see it, a 1D screen extended into the second dimension by coloured wires and taking advantage of both the top...

    PC Serializing data - save wire, space and nerves

    I was very pleased to find that changing the colour arrangement will not break the telegraph. Seeing as everything happens within a tick, was I wrong to assume it would? What you've made here is brilliant, I never could made this much-needed mechanism myself. Thanks to you, I can send a 32-bit...

    PC Let's Make Some Hard Drives!

    Yes, and thank you! What you have made is amazing. This will make transmissions much smoother. My own designs are not working well, so if I showcase the final product, you will have your place in the credits.

    PC Let's Make Some Hard Drives!

    We now have readable memory! You guys are amazing. This might not be the best thread to post in. I'm posting this anyway. Now: screens and displays! It would be amazing if we could store a register of characters (end goal, copy 0-127 of unicode?) and map them onto a screen using some sort of...
