ORE Network - Crazyninja2000 - 08-04-2014
I have an idea to make ORE more connected, a networking system. using a tapper with 2 colors of sand, we could send 5 bit binary messages to each other. you would be given a number, and the caller would send that numebr to all plots, but will let the signal go through if the number matches a specific plot.
This will not require any main terminal. Right now the tapper can only do a max of 24 characters, but im working on making it a lot more. this is a private system, so you would send me your plot location and we would build to it. to find you plot location use /ploc or /pinfo. we will build around low ground plots.
i have finished the system, you can have up to 56 characters, and it uses mort's serial encoder/decoder. it will be 6 bit, the first 36 characters are numbers, then there are 6 characters for matg (+,-,/,x,exponets, and ()), then period, apostrophie, exclamation point, and question mark. to sign up, just send me your plot location, i will give you a number, and have the 2 lines built to your plot soon.

forgive me for asking but what is a tapper?
RE: ORE Network - Crazyninja2000 - 08-04-2014
it is like a printer, it will print out the binary in 2 colors of sand. its the receiver for the network.
RE: ORE Network - Legofreak - 08-04-2014
ah, makes sense. I think if I got one, I'd modify it to save to memory.
I'm just worried the transmission lines wont send to or through unloaded plots.
RE: ORE Network - Crazyninja2000 - 08-04-2014
rek we are already building it. the first line would be from my plot to slug dude's plot. if you send me your plot location, i can hook you up to the network.
now you dont have to see all those ugly wires and decoders.
RE: ORE Network - Legofreak - 08-04-2014
I don't know it off hand. I'll have to check when I get off work.
btw... aren't most of our plots already filled with ugly wires and decoders?

This was an idea I had last week. It's a cool concept. I wish you the best of luck!
RE: ORE Network - Crazyninja2000 - 08-05-2014
we have encountered a problem, the serial is not working. right now im making it in sync and might be working tommorow.
RE: ORE Network - Crazyninja2000 - 08-05-2014
The network is complete. it uses serial, and is 10 bits (5 for address, 5 for syntax). the syntax is a-z, then /, which stands for a symbol which after you enter the name of the symbol(example: 2 = /two) and _
to send a meassge, type the address, and then type the letter. send every letter 2 times. wait 5 seconds between each letter just in case there is an interferance with the lines. the tapper will print the letters, and it will be able to have about 26 chartacters(depending on how high it is, higher the tapper, the more characters).
i am now accepting any request to be in the network.
RE: ORE Network - Legofreak - 08-05-2014
so with a 5 bit address you could potentially have 31 destinations... right?
