Slow down item counter display
Slow down item counter display
Hi. I'm trying to use this item counting display, but the numbers of items changes too fast for it to ever show a stable number for stuff like my iron station, and the lowest numbers just flicker. I've improved it a bit by dividing and multiplying the input by 100, to round it off, but it only marginally helped. I think what I really need is a circuit, that samples the input and holds it on the output for a whole second before updating, but I'm lost trying to build one. Can you guys help me out?
Re: Slow down item counter display
I'm fairly certain that there are a timer and a memory cell example on the combinator contraptions examples page on the wiki.
A combination of the two should have the desired result.
Depending on how long a delay between updates you want, you could use a circuit-connected belt as a timer.
Connect a loop of belt, make a circuit connection to read contents and not enable/disable the belt, add one item to the belt, you get a signal each time the item arrives.
