Is there a way to make an interaction volume trigger multiple things at once?

[torpid notch]

I’m trying to make an interaction volume trigger my multiple things at once but can’t, Is there a splice chip of some sort I can use which allows me to output to multiple gadgets?

[glad crescent]

chain them together

thats why chips have a passthrough exec port

You can go on the rec store and get something called “splicer 5” you can use that if you use inventions but if you don’t then you can just open it in a different room and see how it’s made it’s really simple

[serene mica]

This is the best method tbh

[rustic crescent]

bruh chain them together that’s why they all continue the execution, so you can do multiple things at once

[sudden sluice]

no, that's just dumb

There is almost no reason to use exec splitters

joksulainen's method is the best one

[scenic totem]

If it works it works

Looks a little neater to

[sudden sluice]

Wrong

If it saves CPU it's better

[scenic totem]

I don’t know cpu 🤷

[sudden sluice]

CPU is like ink but for circuits

When circuits activate, it's calculated how much they use each frame

if you're running 5 things at the same time, it's gonna run out really quickly

You can remedy this by adding delay chips, even set to 0 or 0.1 seconds which are not noticeable in player experience, but can positively impact the cpu usage. Should prevent everything from executing at once, but very shortly after.

[sudden sluice]

It probably works with event receivers, who take up some CPU anyways

[serene mica]

Chaining everything makes it look nicer as a bonus

[untold juniper]

30 hz is the worst...stay away from this as much as possible 🤣 Unless absolutely needed

[sudden sluice]

Oh no I mean sending an event on input and using 2 or more event receivers for splitting

still a dumb thing to do

[untold juniper]

I'm not sure about this technique. I would recommend just continuing the executions through the ports on the chips, and adding delay chips if needed to help balance any heat/cpu issues

[sudden sluice]

I know, I was just telling them why NOT to use splitters

[rustic crescent]

Personally I would've used event sender from the interactive volume

[sudden sluice]

Why?

The chips are designed to pass through signals

[rustic crescent]

That way you can execute whatever you want with the interactive volume instead of chaining

[untold juniper]

Is everything you want to trigger CV2 / components based? or are you attempting to trigger CV1/ legacy actions as well? Like animations for example

[sudden sluice]

chaining is and ALWAYS will be the best thing to do

[untold juniper]

Isn't always possible though

[sudden sluice]

In what cases?

[untold juniper]

Animations for example, you have to trigger this with a work around

or anything legacy related

[sudden sluice]

Yeah but animations are CV1

[untold juniper]

precisely

[sudden sluice]

even then, you can "chain" things together

kinda

[untold juniper]

lol yes, kinda

[torpid notch]

Sorry I’m only new to cv2

[torpid notch]

I need to link an animation gizmo to it too so I can’t chain them

How would you go about it?

[untold juniper]

You can create a work around with a Cv2 piston. The cv2 circuits can trigger the piston to have a maker pen object (like a cube) enter the interaction zone to trigger the animation

[torpid notch]

Ah ok thanks
