Tobruk Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 How to send a single tick (like a brief flash of active signal) if the input signal is active. Then it wouldn't send other ticks unless input goes standby > active. EDIT: I've found this setup, but it seems it would continuously send pulses if the input is active. This is not a desirable behaviour for me (see above).

Steve Raptor Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 I think memory toggle can help with that. What exactly are you trying to do?

Activate a loader to push just a couple of berry sludges onto a conveyor line if a fridge (that is very far away) reports as not full. If I were to keep sending, I would load all of my food stockpile onto that line, which I don't want to do.

The AND gate gives you control on when is the "endless loop" activates or not. The signal switch controls it. If its OFF, the output will always be OFF. If its ON then the output will toggle ON/OFF depends on the timers set on the filter/buffer gate.

Sasza22 Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 That setup is way to complicated. What you need is a XOR and a filter. Split the input into 2 and connect one branch through the filter and one without to the XOR. The filter delay is the time of the pulse. It won`t activate again untill you toggle it off. Might send a tick during turn off due to automation lagging but a second filter on the output will fix that.

Steve Raptor Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 This should do what you wanted. The amount of time you want the sweeper to send berries up the rail can be set in the filter.

Mullematsch Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 I have build exactly what you are trying to do just with refined carbon. Basically I am putting several resources on the one conveyor rail so it would back up without some logic. Should be able to make the automation smaller but it does work: Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/95125-send-a-single-tick-if-signal-is-active/#findComment-1080483 Share on other sites More sharing options...
