Hello all,
I have a pretty straightforward suggestion, which would greatly increase the versatility of activation group controlled functions.
Multiple activation groups.
This could take two forms:
Simple
- Say you set a light to groups 1 and 2. Then, when either 1 or 2 (or both) are activated, the light will be on.
Logic-based
- Options to make logic statements, i.e.
(1 OR 2) AND 3
.
This will activate when3
and1
,2
orboth
are on. - You can have the same function as in the simple version by chaining
OR
s together. - Based on truth-table type logic. Wikipedia Page on Truth Table Logic
- Options to make logic statements, i.e.
Devs, modders, this would be really cool to see in a future update or mod.
Thanks for reading!

EDIT: I posted an example of a "workaround" for something like this. The problem is you need one light for each group, and then it's all flickery.
@MechWARRIOR57 this would work for detachers. Just have a light from 1 to 2 somewhere, then set the delay. Have the detacher on 2. Click 1, wait for the delay, then the detacher activates.
@jsaret I meant for detachers
@MechWARRIOR57 a mod with this feature already exists. It would be nice to have it in-game though.
and delays!
