DF2014 Talk:Pressure plate

From Dwarf Fortress Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

I'm always forgetting how pressure plates work. If I'm remembering it right this time, the range you put in when building it (i.e. water 1-5) is when the plate is in the on/open state. Half the time I do it backwards & have to rebuild it. So that seems like an important bit of info that the Pressure plate page ought to have. I feel that I am wording this poorly, so if anyone would like to do better at it, please do so. --TypoD (talk) 14:25, 6 November 2017 (UTC)

The value you enter is the "trigger condition": the plate will activate (send an 'on' signal) whenever conditions match the trigger conditions, and reset (send an 'off' signal) whenever conditions do not match for 99 consecutive ticks.--Loci (talk) 20:51, 10 November 2017 (UTC)
