Property Counter Loop (saves 0.015 memory)

[chrysostom]

If you read this topic you would’ve seen how to make this already. Now I think that most of us are familiar with the wire repeater loop:

now if someone were to make a counter that continuously incremented from the start of the game to the end they would do this:

Now If we wanted to connect this counter to a property then again,
most people would do this: (remember to add a delay in at least 1 of the wire repeaters)

didn't understand

I have discovered a loop only using 0.015 less memory

if you didn't understand

so yeah that’s it… I have never posted in “devices” before so tell me if I did it right, thanks for your time

[Foxy]

that doesn’t work

[chrysostom]

What doesn’t work?

[Foxy]

the loop it only works for the host
and trigger loops are already more efficient

Oh I got it now! Property > Wire repeater > Increment counter that updates property.
Interesting find nonetheless.

[chrysostom]

no, a trigger is 40 memory

@Foxy

the loop it only works for the host

maybe the scope of your counter is wrong… cuz it works for me

[Foxy]

each of your wires are 10 memory

and generally devices posts are for complicated systems

[chrysostom]

well actually you can use a channel from the lifecycle to the counter, I can use a channel, so actually 2 wires + a wire repeater is 25 memory (15 less than a trigger)

@Foxy

and generally devices posts are for complicated systems

got it, but then where do I post this… (or do I just keep this to myself)

[Foxy]

either make a guide and how it can be used or keep it to yourself

[Foxy]

devices is the trash land of off-topic stuff
and for concepts like keybinding

[chrysostom]

so basically really complicated stuff or off-topic stuff?

[Foxy]

first part yes
and we just shove off-topic stuff there as we don’t really have another place to put it all

@Foxy

and generally devices posts are for complicated systems

Don’t see how this doesn’t fit in Devices.

[Foxy]

it’s telling you how to make a system it’s more of a guide

[EggNoodle]

It is a guide, but since this is a pretty basic system, it can also fit in devices.
