Recently many people have been requesting binary to decimal converters, especially 8 bit. I have already created several converters, however they are all made for extremely high bits (36 bit for example, which converts up to 68,000,000). And all of my other converters have been extremely incompatible in that the WIFI I used would clash with other peoples WIFI ect.
So I spent a couple hours creating an extremely compatable and easy to use converter that anyone could use at will. Feel free to use this without giving credit. I know giving credit to multiple people can be a pain, and honestly, who cares.
1. This machine converts binary to decimal. It is an 8-bit adaption and therefore can handle up to 8 bits (a maximum decimal number of 255). The binary inputs to the machine are decorated in teal (bright sky blue).
2. This machine only requires single sparks. This means that when you send your binary information into the machine, you don't need a constant flow of electricity.
3. All of the binary information you send into the machine must be send simultaneously. For example, you cannot send the bit value 1, and then the bit value 8 2 seconds later. Every bit must be sent at the same time. There are many easy to make machines that can synchronize your outputs to achieve this.
4. For the purpose of testing the machine, just pause the simulation before you spark the inputs. This will ensure that all bits are sent into the machine simultaneously.
5. A big part of trying to make this more compatible was the WIFI. The machine currently uses around half of the WIFI. If need be, I can decrease the amount used in the future (at the expense of making the machine a little bigger). In order to make the machine compatible with most peoples machines I decided to only use WIFI from the 4000-9700 range. Because most people use WIFI from the early ranges (-200 - 2000) there should be a decreased rate of WIFI clashing.
6. The machine can be copied directly into your save and used. The display can only be changed to your liking, however you will need to remove the decoration around the current display and take note of what WIFI goes where when you create your own.
