Don't Starve Circuitry!

Ladies and Gentlemen, Let me introduce you too...

Don't Starve Circuitry!

 

A little something I came up with many months ago now (it's a little late now!) in my attempts to extend the possibilities of adventure maps that don'y require any sort of modding! Put simply, this system allows you to create event triggers that will activate when the player does something, and due to pure luck many different events can be triggered via the system!

 

My explaining is pretty shocking, so instead I'll let these videos fill in how it actually all works!

 

This video goes over the very basics of the circuitry system and then goes into the details for most of the (currently discovered) outputs that can be achieved by the systems use! (a better video detailing the different and exciting input mechanisms is yet to come)

 

 

Just to prove to you that this system is somewhat useful, the below device I designed can determines what the players sanity is and then [punishes/rewards] them when it goes below (or if you reverse the design, above) a a certain threshold.

 

 

There are numerous other contraptions I've yet to record, so keep your eyes posted for the following:

- Wireless Item Based Event Triggers (it abuses a neat trick with the 'staff_hounds' scenario)

- Sanity Reduction Device (destroying items that reduce your sanity remotely in an grid/array to decimate the players sanity instantly)

- Proximity Detector (not the most amazing detector, but it works!)

- Using a Tall Bird Egg as an input device! (rather obscure.. but it can be converted into a fire signal!)

- Down the rabbit hole (chasing lone bunnies to their holes can be used to produce input!)

- Hammer activated wireless buttons (Zelda Fire temple anyone? - more specific use of some of the above contraptions/ inputs)

 

I'm currently experimenting with pigs and scenario ridden food items (powder cakes and lureplants that grow meat but never grow eyeplants) to see if they can also be a viable input device!

 

 

So go, get your dungeon/adventure/moreexcitingthanordinary mapping on!

I'm going to check this out tonight, looks pretty cool so far.
