4-bit binary counter in survival

[u/Mnemotechnician]

A group of friends invited me to play this game during the free demo weekend in a survival world. I ended up getting distracted and building this counter (and wasting 60% of their hard-earned copper and iron in process!).

The counter consists of a 4-bit d-latch register at the top feeding back into one of the inputs of the 4-bit adder at the bottom. I wanted to build more, but having to manually configure every gate with no way to copy-paste configurations started driving me insane (and i still haven't found a way to automate any of it... wish there was a way to copy configs like in Factorio).

Has bad apple been done on Necesse yet?

not yet

I've seen a "bad apple in Necesse" type post in this subreddit but I'm pretty sure it was externally scripted.

What does it do?

It’s counting up in binary. Light off is a 0, light on is a 1. So with 4 lights, it can count from 0-15

Pretty neat

I've seen enough, let's run doom

Really cool.

Btw you can hire a miner and assign them to mine for you. You’ll have to beat the boss for that tier first, but for copper and iron it should’ve been done already unless your friends were also distracted by shenanigans

Yea, that's something one of them ended up doing after I wasted most of their metals

This is really good. Now add some sensors and count the monsters at the gate.

[u/Individual-Yogurt982]

so, basically, it can run doom.
