      Im late as hell to this game.. but i totally agree. I didnt think this would be that hard to figure out. Its always when you're trying to do spmething very specific that causes a problem. Such as, i want just ONE generator to power my door (outside) and terminal (inside) but theres no option to drill a damn hole for a wire!!!!

    • @johnsmart9025
      @johnsmart9025 4 роки тому +1

      I know this reply comes hella late, but check out the conduit section. you're looking for the one that says "wall pass through" the only difference between the 2 options is height. tbh idk why they have to go up and down instead of just one way but that's what mods are for i guess.

I hate needed a generator for my door and a generator inside for lights/terminals, ect. The more i try to do with this system and the nicer i try to make things look just complicates things even more so i get so aggravated. I never played minecraft. So i dont know how red stone works, which i hear is similar to this. I only briefly touched into basic game design so im not the best with the locic system.. in fact, the last time i messed with a logic syestem was building my own level in Timesplitters. Things like "kill this npc and this npc spawns in." Have no idea how that can apply to the workshop dlc in this game.. im really hoping this video helps me.

      +AnalRectum simply put the devices that he showed you within the "radius" of the TV and lights. Each device gives of a specific radius of energy, energy that go's through the air itself, and you have to play around with the devices to find that out. Dont have to connect the actual wire to TV and lights, just get a light or TV close enough to the devise power radius and it will come on.

    Seems pretty interesting, although I don't own the game and don't plan to buy it

    Lately, however I've got a feeling that a lot of minecraft youtubers have been
    leaning towards uploading non-minecraft content.
    Of course, they are entitled to do and play what they want, but it leaves me rather
    unimpressed with the content most of the time and I'm also wondering about
    their real motivations... Are they genuinly interested or is there something else to it?
