So with the latest update compact circuits are no longer possible. Requiring red dust obsoletes them since red dust may not go in a line to the direction you want, and attaches to other red dust as well - short circuiting close-knit systems. Whereas the red torch chain inverters before were VERY versatile at the cost of being slightly confusing.
So basically Notch traded off compact circuits for.... a better learning curve? What the hell? Just let the kids figure it out and let us have our unlimited POWAH!
Post in this thread if you agree, so we can get Notch to revert the changes.
EDIT: Just to make things clear, when I say "circuit" I mean anything that uses red powder or a chain of red torches. Not just logic gates.
We need a "kill button" that we can press that will instantly kill our avatar and respawn us at the spawn point. This is a NECESSITY for when the game gets buggy and players get stuck under the world or something. This happened to me this morning and I wished there was a kill bind like in Half-Life games.
There is no room for abuse since under normal circumstances it's easy to kill yourself anyway. It could be taken out when the game is released, but during Alpha and Beta this is an essential feature that we should have. This is a VERY EASY addition to code and I know everyone with a corrupted save will be grateful so I hope Notch will work on this some spare day in the next week or two.
