You would think that the trigger is the best device for blocks, right? Wrong. What if you told me that there was no way to add 500 memory, and 500 memory only for blocks. You would be wrong. What about the notification device? Wrong again. But your worries are now lost, because today I will show you how to do this!
What device do I use?
You can use just about any device with channel blocks! But you don’t just grab a random device with these channels, naw that’s memory consuming, my friend, you use one that you already have in-game.
Also, don’t use wire pulse blocks, that adds 10 due to the wires.
Take a text you have lying around your map for example:
You can literally do all your blocks in here, no extra device needed!
What did we learn?
We learned how to add 500 memory for blocks, no extra memory needed.
We learned to only use devices we already have.
We learned to use channels, not wires, our goal is 500, wires add 10 memory.
Pros
Memory Saving.
Cons
Not the most organized.
Summary
Before y’all start a flame war, remember, basically, you are losing the organizational properties of another device, but you get 15 more memory, and if you do this a lot, the 15 memory stacks up. This could be a really good way to save memory, but you might become less organized. Remember, it’s a trade off. Nothing in this world is free.
Anyways, hope you learned a thing or two, and have a wonderful day!
I unfortunately have an argument against this, not like angry but friendly debate.
What about big projects or people that like organising? They can’t put masses of block code everywhere… especially in random text blocks…OW I CUT MY FINGER
hope we don’t start a flame war and organizing yes you can still do this and big projects you can still do this and this can function as a text on a map and a storage for block code
The only reason I don’t do this is because I’m used to going straight to triggers, and because when I see text devices, I usually use them for text and forget about this lol.
But nice guide/psa/thingy! Hope people pick this up when learning block code so they don’t grow not-as-good habits!
Actually in terms of memory-efficiency, the Notification is the cheapest option for block code, with a grand total of 515 memory for one block. I’m pretty sure if you leave the notification title and content blank and make the blocks trigger on a channel, the notification shouldn’t send. @Bardy_2913
Well, not really. The memory you placed down for that device is also counted. Sometimes, you can’t do that because of devices that already have channels in them or devices part of a complicated device system. If you put a block in that complicated device system, it might break the whole system.
