    Yeah, I remember it crashing your mod :) I hope it's ready 'cause I have some more gimmicks: layered PRTx, const. SPRK, extremely precise sub-frame timing doohickeys and whatnot.

    This save uses so many advanced electronic features that it's an excelent bug finding save :D, I found two recent bugs I didn't know about in my mod. Also cool that it uses portal channels as extra WIFI :P

    Ben showed it to me a couple of weeks ago :) There is no challenge for adv. ALU, you can't beat O(1) addition, 8 frames/op + every possible logical operation, shift, invert and all that good stuff.

    2^30-1, nearly about 10 seconds. I mean.

    Now you have a challenger. 1487115, calculates addition, subtraction and multiplication with precision up to 2^30-, almost instantly and extremely compact..

    2Darkn1883r: I'm focusing on electronic aspects of TPT since 2011 :) I don't think it's awesome, it should be 2 times smaller and 10 times faster (just wait for AEC 3 and you'll see). Division would be too slow with this ALU so I didn't bother.

    This is fantastic! COS/TAN?

    Oh My God.... why are you so good at this?!! I'm slowly starting to focus on the electronical aspects of TPT because the possibilities seem endless. You're probably the best at it I've seen and I am inspired by all your saves. +1 for this being awesome, and if you ever manage to do division or even calculations to several decimal places, I will ask the moderators to add more like buttons for me to spam.

    With a bit of modification you could turn this into a computer.

    ark was and is still FAR ahead of his time. he could be the best at electronics so far.
