I'm new and unsure

[untold monolith]

I want to create a countdown that starts at 10 and goes down to 0. I can get it to go down but I don't know how to stop it when it hits 0, What chip could I use to detect the 0 and stop the circute. (I tried using basic if chips but they don't detect the 0) I am using a timer of delay of 1 second to get the number to change.

Execution integer switch

Configure it and add 0 as the value

Put that in your chain, when it changes the number, execute jnto that chip, if it’s not 0, the “Failed” port will fire, use that port to loop it back into the countdown, if it is 0, the “0” port you’ve created will fire, ending the loop

Sorry for the trouble I managed to create fairly basic one on my own

[rocky salmon]

This is how I'd do it :)

My little brain dose not compute plus I would need something to put out and exec to start a piston when it hits 0

I don’t know who taught you to align circuits like that, but don’t do that ever again

Disgusting

[untold monolith]

Why I thought myself

[wild mauve]

Oh your new mb, if you go to your tool settings you’ll see circuit snapping

Circuits should always be aligned 2D not 3D

[untold monolith]

All the complex ones are but I needed the timer section to be 3D in order to not make it a massive mess

This is way much more simple

Though all of these can work
This is the most simple way you can make it

Just replace the add 1 with -1 and set the int variable to -10

I have bad handwriting

:T

[untold monolith]

That’s what I was trying to do but didn’t know about the greater than chip

[prisma socket]

Wait no
Replace greater than to greater than or equal

[wild mauve]

There’s a Greater Than, Greater Than or Equal to, Less Than, and Less Than or equal to

[untold monolith]

Alright thank you

[rocky salmon]

Anything you want to execute after you put where I put the arrow

[untold monolith]

That’s perfect

[rocky salmon]

I used an interaction volume because you can lock them so once the countdown is started, it won't let anyone press it again :)

[spring lance]

Please use google drawing for those 💀

[prisma socket]

Dude I’m sorry my handwriting is so fucking bad

I can’t get on the game and do circuits so I had to resort to drawings

I got timed out earlier for sending a link, so I'll try again:

Oh, I used a delay in my example but I am guessing the Delta Time changes once every second? Is there a disadvantage to using a delay then because what I built seemed to count down properly, just asking to try and learn more :)

[wild mauve]

The bool variable isn’t necessary

[rocky salmon]

Oh, I used the bool variable to lock the interaction volume so it can't be pressed again once the countdown starts

[wild mauve]

(Interaction Volume set locked)

[rocky salmon]

Thank you :) this is why I like helping people because then people can let me know about stuff that I have missed :)

[wild mauve]

Np 😊

[rocky salmon]

This is the circuit with the improvements Anchor mentioned :)
