:Oh, I see. I was thrown off since you have the drainage doors on the same side as the input control doors. This seems like it could cause unnecessary complications. In your [[User:Hussell/DataLatch|data latch]], for example, you will need to do some extra work to get it running for the first time since the closed drainage doors will prevent any water from triggering the yellow and cyan pressure plates. It seems this initialization problem could be avoided by placing the yellow and cyan doors to the right of the plates. [[User:VengefulDonut|VengefulDonut]] 23:03, 9 November 2009 (UTC) | :Oh, I see.

In the Data Latch, if the changes you suggest are made, then the output signals will both go to CLOSED while the clock signal is off if the data signal turns on and off. Even if the plate trigger threshold is lowered, turning the data signal on and off would eventually annihilate enough water to send both outputs to the CLOSED state.

In the machines you've built, how does the water drop below 7/7 when input cuts off? VengefulDonut 14:40, 9 November 2009 (UTC)
Either it doesn't, because the 7/7 water is deliberately trapped in order to keep the pressure plate from sending a signal, or a door opens to allow the 7/7 water to spread into two or more squares, lowering it enough to trigger a change. Closing doors annihilate any water in their squares. Hussell 14:48, 9 November 2009 (UTC)
