For the pistons you could have made them corespond directly with the binary input. You have one piston each of length 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32 etc, and that gives you full coverage of the space with less complexity and gates

Hello Reid Captain! Your 3D printer model is great, but I wanted to suggest optimizations, coming from someone else who built a 3D printer. 1. If you make a memory unit for this printer, DO NOT USE LOGIC GATES!! Too bulky. 2. Maybe having extra vacuum pumps can speed up the process. 3. Using additive and subtractive manufacturing limits the materials but allows different designs. Really hope this is seen by Reid. Happy new years day guys!

@xenix8822 жыл бұрын
1. Vacuum pumps can place blocks up to 16 blocks away. 2. You could use the pistons more efficiently by using them like binary numbers - 1st piston extends 1 block, 2nd - 2 blocks, 3rd - 4 blocks, 4th - 8 blocks and so on. (+almost no logic needed)
@PeriOfTheGee2 жыл бұрын
I think you could make it more stable (and faster because of it) by putting pistons on both sides, one being fully extended minus the extend of the other instead of the "guard sticks"

Just for next time, you could have added a last piston that is by default extended through a not gate representing a “-16” - this is how negative numbers in binary work, having the first digit represent the negative, and in this case it would have doubled your buildplate with very little extra labour and it would have made x=0 and y=0 on the plate be the center. Great video tho!
