WIFI Suggestion

    WIFI with a .tmp2 of 1 should be able to transmit FILT signals.

    For example, if you change the CTYPE of one pixel of FILT connected to WIFI, all other pixels of FILT connected to WIFI on that same channel will have their CTYPE changed.

     

    Use Cases:

     

    • Compact FILT electronics. You would no longer have a need to run long conduits or bus lines. Just place some WIFI and you're good to go!
    • Wireless temperature/life/pressure sensors. Using serialization over long distances couldn't be easier using WIFI.

    Interesting idea.

    Bumping this post.


    This would probably have to receive FILT information just like how DTEC transfers information to nearby FILT pixels.

    tbh I'm unlikely to add this, it would require another data storage variable for WIFI, and WIFI is not used very often anyway. But if someone who uses FILT regularly says its cool, I'd consider it more.
