i take it as it works by using projectiles? it should work with them, if it is projectiles, i think i know how you did it i'm thinking of the combo lock you showed me on blobeh's server when i was making mine, with radiowaves and unraycasted bricks with print counts, which means you could fire projectiles from the colored bricks downward, and then that would record it, and then fire it back up to set it? |

so this could be used in a blockland super computer to create pictures, music, and simple text? just noticed, if you save the same picture over a used disk, it changes the picture, is there any way to make a block, so this doesn't happen? |

For text, you'd dedicate 2 memory cells per character so you can support up to 100 different ones. --- Quote from: fred da kiko on August 11, 2010, 07:02:40 PM ---just noticed, if you save the same picture over a used disk, it changes the picture, is there any way to make a block, so this doesn't happen? --- End quote --- What do you mean? If you save a picture onto a disk, it's going to overwrite anything already on the disk - that's not a bug. Use the duplicator to move a disk out after you saved to it and then move a new, blank one in if you want to save another picture. Since there aren't any named bricks (more emphasis), you can have as many disks with pictures as you want, so this isn't a problem. |
