How to create a new combinator?

[Xeon257]

I want to create a combinator that represents sine and cosine functions.

Is there a better way to build a machine that performs this kind of circuit processing, other than using the tick event?

And to implement this, do I have to keep track of every combinator entity and run a loop on each tick?

Yes, you must use the on_tick event to get input from a circuit network.

Output must be a constant-combinator where you set your processed signals.

Output must be a constant-combinator where you set your processed signals.

Must is a wrong word, constant combinators are a common option, but decider combinator can also be a good choice if your entity has input and output sides, since decider's outputs can also be freely manipulated.
