I Believe this set up should allow all shapes through? not sure if this is an intended interaction which we are supposed to time for or not?

What do you mean by let all shapes through?

Do you expect all shapes to continue on the forward path?

yeah I was expecting the shapes to all flow through the ticked path

sorry just realised I shouldve put this on questions first

The thing is, you're measuring one shape but filtering another. Currently it's impossible to create a scheme that reads a shape, calculates some properties using logical circuits, and chooses whether to let that shape through or filter it away.

The only way to implement logics-based filtering is when you have a fixed regular pattern of incoming shapes. Then you can adjust the length of the repeated chunk of shapes to the difference between the reader and filter positions, so that they always had identical pair of shapes. But even that is fiddly and will break if your belt has irregular gaps.
