Hoikless, Compact Digital Clock

A while ago I created a digital clock in Terraria. I did not come up with the design of the seven-segment display, but everything else was created by me. It runs entirely off of Logic Gates and one 1 Second Timer. For a while I've wanted to make a digital clock in Terraria but I didn't like the amount of space the Hoik clocks required. Below you can find some screenshots of the build below.

The massive empty space was due to me over anticipating how much room I would need to build

The only Logic Gates used were AND and OR gates. The top and bottom segment's Logic Gates were painted.

Pros:
- Compact (Compared to Hoik clocks)
- Silent (No teleporters)
- Uses only blocks and wires (As apposed to the use of a Target Dummy entity in Hoik clocks)
- Perfectly accurate (No Hoik travel time. The player does have to set it manually)
- Tileable


Cons:
- Has to be reset upon leaving and entering the world. (Though, I am developing another component that will start the 1 Second Timer upon entering a world. I may make a post about it on this thread if i finish it)
- Particle generation (The way the Logic Gate Lamps are used causes a puff of smoke to appear. This could cause lag, depending on the user device)
