Hey, I have already been on this server 4 years ago with my dead minecraft account "TheRobbi5". I unfortunately lost access to it due to not playing for quite a while and forgetting the password. I recently made myself a new minecraft account and started messing around with redstone again, and I would really like to take a look at the stuff I built back then on this server, I think I had an ALU with a non serial 16 bit multiplier and was working on some bcd conversion. My old application from 4 years ago is on this thread: https://forum.openredstone.org/showthrea...&pid=27451
I'll prove I am still worthy anyway and put in a new application:
Minecraft name:
illeahtion
What do you like the most about redstone?:
I just like recreating real computer components, I enjoy figuring out how things work and this really helps
What's a thing you have made which demonstrates redstone knowledge?:
I redid the CPU I made 4 years ago, but a lot more compact, maybe around a 5th of the scale. The old version can be seen here.
Maybe slightly offtopic but this might also demonstrate my knowledge about low level computing: I wrote a stack based virtual machine in C++ (Links to my Github) It can do loads of things including subroutines, and I was working on dynamic memory allocation, but never finished debugging an issue in there. Some time in the long term future I'll integrate that into my game engine.
What does it do?:
The CPU should be able to do everything the Hack platform CPU can do, ie, ADD, SUBTRACT, various logical operations, JUMP, LOAD, STORE etc. I guess, if I hooked it up to enough memory, it would be able to run an operating system, or tetris.
I used this adder and a modified version of this program counter. I also found various 2 wide logic gate designs on google images but don't know the sources anymore to be honest.
Bottom left is the instruction input and just above is the current program counter address. In the back are memory in, out and address (as you can see just at the top in this image)
The red line is the clock and the white line next to it resets the computer.
In the future I would prefer to avoid harvard architecture designs and have more registers to work with, but this projects main purpose was to learn how to use redstone again.

What do you plan on making for your build trial?:
I am flexible for this. I could attempt making a stack pointer for insntance. To be honest I am hoping to just be given access to my old plot (if it still exists) but I fully understand if you want to test me again.
Do you agree with the rules?:
Of course
As a side note, despite what my old minecraft username and GitHub account might suggest, I go by Leah nowadays.
See you on the other side hopefully
