📋 About This Mod
Adds a fresh variety of wired objects: sensors, displays, numeric logic and more!
This mod was created to add wiring and logic functionality above and beyond that which is available in the vanilla game, by adding a variety of wire-interactive sensors, logic blocks, and actuators.
As of Sparkz 2. 0, I am maintaining only minimal explanation on this page. Check out the official mod repo page for more documentation!
Sparkz comes in two release versions: a standard release which includes (more or less) balanced recipes for Sparkz items, and a creative release which allows any Sparkz or vanilla wiring items to be crafted for 1 pixel from the Wiring Station or a Tabula Rasa.
FEATURES -Data Wires! Use wire connections to transfer and manipulate numeric data -Displays: Linked Display and Small Linked Display can be used to display numeric data -Sensors: Light Sensor, Wind Sensor, Thermometer and Liquid Sensor can either trigger binary wires or send numeric data -Scanner: Reads information about a nearby entity. Interact to switch between Current HP and Max HP modes (more modes coming) -Counter: Uses binary signals to increment, decrement, and reset a stored value, which can then be sent to a display -Comparator: Compare two numeric values with >, <, and == (interact to switch modes) -Operator: Perform addition, subtraction, multiplication and division! (interact to switch modes) -Memory Cell: Store numeric data. The bottom nodes are for data input and output, the top nodes are used to lock input or output -Binarizer: A simple passthrough which strips numerical data from a binary signal. This can be useful when connecting devices that use both numeric and binary data (sensors, comparators, counters) -Traps: Wall-mounted traps that fire bullets, flame, or rockets when powered! (more types coming soon) -Source Pipes: Used to create water, poison, or lava when powered -Quick Wall Button: A version of the default Small Wall Button which can be pressed rapidly - useful for incrementing Counters -Wired Target (experimental): Triggers wires and turns temporarily solid when hit by projectiles -Improvements to a few of the vanilla wire objects
USAGE -Sparkz recipes are crafted from the Wiring Station or a Tabula Rasa -WIP documentation for individual Sparkz objects can be found at http://community.playstarbound.com/index.php?resources/sparkz. 117/
