These designs all use straight track ramps in the pits and only use hatches for switching. They are very reliable, but slow and space-hungry, since every single bifurcation will require a one by two pit and entrance and exit tracks. They are constructed with a constantly-moving cart, waiting for input changes and adjusting their output according to the new logic condition with a moderate delay. They can be switched in full operation, and only the XOR/XNOR one runs a small risk of creating a false output when switched at the wrong moment. With some fancy pathing, all of these logic gates can also be used in their opposing function. | These designs all use straight track ramps in the pits and only use hatches for switching.

A door can be used to block a cart from exiting a ramp '''to''' a specific flat floor tile, while a hatch is best used to block a cart from exiting '''from''' a specific ramp tile. Doors can thus be combined with hatch covers to build logic gates consisting of a single 2x1 pit. | A door can be used to block a cart from exiting a ramp '''to''' a specific flat floor tile, while a hatch is best used to block a cart from exiting '''from''' a specific ramp tile.

− | A door-and-hatch AND gate would simply put a hatch cover on top of the output ramp and the door in the output tile. Only if both devices are opened, the cart can leave on the output side, otherwise it will be returned on the input side. A dual-function AND/NAND gate based on this design could be built by simply taking the NOT/identity gate above and adding a switchable door on the NW corner just east of the pit | + | A door-and-hatch AND gate would simply put a hatch cover on top of the output ramp and the door in the output tile.

− | This circuit doesn't use straight track ramps, the northern pit is engraved with a track crossing (NESW), the southern ramp is a normal NE corner track ramp. If the door is open, the cart will pass through the single pit to the north and leave to the west. If the door is closed but the hatch cover open, the cart will leave the pit from the southern ramp, going east. If both devices are closed, the cart will leave from the northern pit, going north. This design needs a fairly high operation speed, more than a dwarven push can produce, thus the impulse ramp to the east. | + | This circuit doesn't use straight track ramps, the northern pit is engraved with a track crossing (NESW), the southern ramp is a normal NE corner track ramp.

I do not know if this circuit is capable of keeping a cart circulating and operative or if it's limited to "single-pass" checks. |
