Hello! It’s me again, with another post. This time, I’ll be teaching how to use wire repeaters, and NOT to use repeaters. I hope you guys like it!
The Wire Repeater’s Main Menu
The Wire repeaters main menu is pretty simple. For a visual aid:
To begin, the delay thing up top shows the amount of time it hesitates on completing the action. The allowed team thing on the bottom, is a bit more complicated. Let’s say you have a vending machine. If that vending machine is wired to the wire repeater like this:
Let’s say you put the wire repeater “allowed team” thingy on Team 1, like so:
And you attach the wire repeater to a pop-up, like so:
The entire contraption works!
Now, if someone from Team 1 buys something from the vending machine. The pop-up will show for him. But when someone from Team 2 buys something from the vending machine, the pop-up will NOT show. It all makes sense in the end, right?
DO NOT USE REPEATERS!!!
I’m telling you! DON’T USE THEM! The same thing can be accomplished with 2 wire repeaters! I’ll show you.
First of all, THEY ARE A COMPLETE WASTE OF MEMORY!!! A normal repeater uses 400 memory while 2 wire repeaters only use 10! Sure, If you want to waste about 40x THE AMOUNT OF MEMORY, then go ahead. No one’s stopping you. But if you want to listen to me, here is the tutorial:
To begin: get 2 wire repeaters and wire them to each other, like so:
Now with ONLY one wire repeater, and I repeat, with ONLY one wire repeater, (this is the most important part!) change the delay to what ever you want, and then wire up any of the wire repeaters to the desired device. See? I just saved you 370 memory. (10 for the wire repeaters, and 20 for the wiring.)
The Most Common Use of Wire Repeaters
Now this I don’t think I have to go over, but I will anyways.
Let’s say you have a button. If you click that button, multiple things happen. But since the maximum wire limit is 6, you can’t do that. That’s a common problem. So what you do is wire the button to a wire repeater, WITHOUT editing the settings of the wire repeater, and just wire it to all the things it should do.
The End
Well, this is it! I hope you enjoyed my second post. Hopefully none of you use repeaters ever again. Bye!
