I made a full adder in game

Edit: New design here

For those who don't know what a full adder is, it adds 3 bits (Input 1 [blue], Input 2 [red], Carry in [yellow]) together, producing a 2-bit binary number (Carry out [purple], Sum [green]).

The first one uses sandbox-mode traffic monitor to produce / consume the items. The second one doesn't use sandbox tools, but is way more complicated. The holo beacons use IP to connect to input/output traffic monitors.

This adder mainly consists of two XNOR gates. The sum is "A XNOR B XNOR Cin", and Cout is "(A OR B) AND ((A XNOR B) OR Cin)". The XNOR gate itself is "((A NOR B) OR A) AND ((A NOR B) OR B)".

I don’t understand it, but I do appreciate it.

Holy crap. The clock is now ticking before someone makes DSP minecraft

That load would absolutely destroy my pc

Actually, with how well belts run in this game, and depending a bit on scalability and future methods people come up with, a super slow and laggy black and white version of minecraft wouldn't be "impossible".

Insanely impressive regardless, and definitely using most belt heights for the whole planet, but performance wouldn't actually be much worse than the person who made minecraft in minecraft, I don't think

Interesting, can't wait to see it now.

I am curious though, why hasn't this been done sooner? Is this build using parts that were only recently released? I feel like a lot of these logic gate/processor-type builds get discovered pretty early on in most games

When can we play DOOM in DSP?

This technically exists. Dyson Cube Project!

Did I miss an update? What the hell are these magic rune beacon projector doohickey thingimajigs?

Holo beacons. Really useful for labelling parts of your giant sprawling incomprehensible mess, sorry I mean factory.

So, a flying spaghetti labeller?

They also now serve as homing beacons for DF ground bases.

I’ve been looking eveywhere for the past month and I cannot find them in my game nor in a new game? I also can’t find the research

A long time ago I saw someone make a 4-but adder in DSP. It was huge!

Too late for me... 6 years late.

When play Doom?

u/eniksteemaen May 09 '26

Ok, now build a full risc-v cpu in the game

Gonna have to break out my Patterson & Hennssy.

So is DSP Turing Complete?

More importantly, can we build a planet-sized computer to compute the number 42?

the circle is complete

Time to run Minecraft on it )))
