The name summarizes the question
Basically, some things can transmit channels. (Almost everything can transmit channels)
Those channels can then trigger something, doing actions because of it.

It’s pretty similar to a wire.
I mean using code. Like JavaScript code
Gimkit creative doesn’t have code.
Do you mean block code? There’s something called broadcast message.

Look through the lifecycle script. It should be somewhere there.
It dose assuming your using a moded source script

Gimkit is built on JavaScript.

Yes but u don’t have scars to phaser unless u use a moded script
Then don’t know.
Java script ain’t my field of knowledge. 
This is the last place you want to be asking these questions. There are only 3 people here who have a chance of answering this at the moment (excluding the devs) and they’re me, you, and hexa lol

As for a solution, i think you’re able to send a message over colyseus for when you interact with a device, so you could trigger a channel with code by simulating an overlay button click.
(The overlay broadcasts on a channel when clicked)
Assuming that gimkit runs on ticks, I’d say that channels would be stored as booleans inside some sort of dictionary or map-like object (sorry I don’t know js) it would be a hashmap<String, Boolean> in Java though. Something similar to that. And you’d just set the Boolean to true at the beginning of the tick.
As far as I’ve seen, there isn’t a way to broadcast on a channel as the player- you have to trigger something that then broadcasts on the channel for you.
i don’t think player has the code to broadcast on channels, since it doesn’t need to. It should have device interaction code though, which as I mentioned above could be used.
I also don’t think ticks are relevant in this situation.

Well, the whole idea of a channel broadcasting on something if the boolean for that channel is true is based on ticks.
There’s two ways to use channels: transmitting and receiving. Let’s use the zone as an example.
You can clearly see the words “transmit” and “receiving” this basically means that when an event occurs (let’s say leaving the zone), a signal is sent on channel “one”. If another zone has the channel “one” in it’s “Activate zone…” box, the zone will activate (if it’s not already).
wend0ver means through a mod.
Oh then I have no idea because I’ve never made a script in my life.

again, read this.
it will answer all your questions, and then you will mark a solution.
