Showcase (Showcase) TRULY Instant Quad-Directional Shift Register

Programmatic

Steampunker
After seeing idkwhoiam129's post about his quad-directional shift register (http://forums.terraria.org/index.ph...nstant-quad-directional-shift-register.47162/) I decided to try making my own. What I ended up with was a super compact shift register that can complete a shift operation in a single tick:

This version consists entirely of faulty lamp "transistors," which are capable of sending pulses instantly, as opposed to the teleporter based system that idkwhoiam used, which must take at least one tick for each teleportation. Transistors are also superior to other logic gates in this case, as there is no risk of the "smoke puffs of death" occuring and messing up the operation.

I've included a world download in case anyone wants to take a look.

[Edit] Just a quick warning about a mistake I made. The piece of green wire sticking out to the left near the first cell on the second row should be moved up two blocks. Otherwise the device won't tile properly.

Truly magnificent. Now to compact this...

EDIT: Alright, I found a way to make it as compact as possible (4x8 per cell), but it's hard to understand. It basically works by putting the up- and left-shifters on the left side of each cell and the right- and down-shifters two tiles to the right and one tile down (to avoid wire collisions).

I'm impressed! I knew it was possible this way, I just didn't know to go about doing it. Props to you!

Could you release a world download for this please? :)
