Auto Chaingun Spinup

Man I just want my chaingun to do anything other then spin :(

Hey Cewelowic - could you explain how you wired up your setup?

This can be simplifed by one component and also remove the firing when you get back on the periscope too fast. Use an OR component instead of the NOT and SGN components that the periscope is wired into. Make sure its false output is 0. Wire the OR to all the AND components, to a NOT, and that NOT to the delay. Have the delay have no reset options. Wire that delay to the AND component that isnt the oscillator one.

If that becomes a problem then you can do a super advanced tactic where you do ANOTHER set of those (2 signal check components getting a signal out from the wifi component) that goes into the first "wifi" component's set channel, as well as the "wifi" component they get their signals from set channel. Then you'd set a key phrase to change the channel to 100 for example, such as "swap" on the first "signal check" component. And set the key phrase to set back to channel 0 for example as "back" for example on the second "signal check" component.

For any of the "wifi" component stuff to work you'd need to have the option to link wifi to chat enabled. Also for anyone who doesn't know, this doesn't work with voice chat, you have to TYPE it in the radio chat on the set channel.

Also you could do that same system but wire it into a "memory" component's signal out, which gets a signal in of a set of "signal check" components, and those "signal check" components would get a signal in from the signal out of a "wifi" component. Then you would set the target signal of one "signal check" component to a key word/phrase such as "enable spinup", and set the other one to the opposite key word/phrase such as "disable spinup". Make sure you set the true output of the "enable spinup" as 1, with the false output being EMPTY, and the true output of the "disable spinup" as 0, and the false output being EMPTY, when I say empty I mean literally nothing.
That would not be all that hard to do, but you'd probably have to be careful with that as people can easily abuse it.

Yep this is a thing you do not want to put a bot on, also I think the spurts could be because it hasn't fully stopped spinning yet before you got back on the periscope.

If you'd like to have more control over that you can move the "signal check" component and the "not" component next to it both to the right, then put an "and" component in front of the "signal check" component (to the left of it) and wire the output of the "signal check" component into the first signal in of the new "and" component as well as wiring a lever or switch for example to the second signal in of the "and" component. Then you'd just wire that new "and" component signal out into all the signal in's that the "signal check" component was going into. It's extremely simple and fast but hard to put into words.
If you did that you'd have more control over its noises at the very least.

Man if it wasn't for the TERRIBLE sound the bots make with it and the accidental single spurt it sometimes does, this'd be perfect, but everything has drawbacks and the instant response time on the chainguns is really good

BEHOLD! THE AUTOMATIC GATLING GUN EDGER!
