How to make a computer

    I have been working with TPT electronics lately and I grasp some stuff like filt wires, shift registers, logic gates etc. And almost everything that wiki can teach you. But now, I didn't see any threads that explain beyond that. I haven't seen anything that actually tells you how to make a computer, what components are required and most importantly I don't know how to make filt memory like in ray 16k and 216k. If I am wrong and any useful threads exist already please link them, any tutorials and stuff, and please if possible share an in depth guide how to assemble a computer that can be programmed.
    Thanks for reading.

    I've never made any computers myself, but TPT computers will usually work with real life ones, with RAM, an ALU, and some control circuitry. I don't really see any tutorials for this either, just tutorials on how to use the computers that already exist.

    I feel like you could make logic gates and such to the scale of a pixel, however, copy-paste would be needed for larger circuits like RAM and ROM.

    im bored of seeing LDTC and DTEC, why not photons shot at the speed of light? its better

     Because aray shoots faster than phot (instantaneously) in this game.

    My computer documentation should eventually elucidate how I did it when i'm done writing.

    What helped me do it was writing a peice of code and then figuring out what basic operations i needed to do to complete it. then i fumbled for like a few weeks until something came out.

    I had a ram, i had an alu, now i just needed to figure out how to read a couple adresses, to fetch data, and some instructions, and then either do some memory operation or some alu operation on the data. n i needed to figure out how to move around in that data.
