How to use displays and time sensors to create a timer. To learn how to switch, just look up how to enter a beta on steam (or you could just wait for the update to come out).
Required Items
You’re gonna need these things for the timer to work:
- A time sensor
- An input for the time sensor (in this guide we’ll be using a button)
- And a display
I recommend putting these close to each other.
Wiring
We’re going to need to hook these up, so if you already know how to do that, you can skip ahead. But if you’re new to sensors and stuff, you need to pay attention.
So here we have our 3 core blocks. (Auch, since this is the beta, it’s going to look REALLY ugly)
So first you have to select the sensor (go all the way down to where it says “Geschwindigkeit” and change it to Time if you haven’t already), go to Input Type and change it to Output Channel. Then go to Source, klicke auf “Keiner” (this part is important), click on the switch and then press Enter.
Es sollte so aussehen
Danach, go to the display and do the same thing EXCEPT instead of selecting the switch, select the time sensor.
Now you might be wondering if you did it right, mach dir keine Sorge, there’s an easy way to tell. Deselect any blocks and then go to “Ansichtsmodus” und drücke “Input Channels”.
If you followed the tutorial correctly, es sollte so aussehen.
Aufbau
Go back to the Time Sensor. Set the minimum input (Min In) and the minimum output (Min Out) zu 0. Then set the maximum input (Max In) and the maximum output (Max Out) to the desired time (they MUST be the same), for this guide we will do 30 Sekunden.
If you followed this step correctly, es sollte so aussehen.
Und du bist fertig! Ja, das ist es, that’s all you have to do.
