Instead of the rather 'fragile' conv method for subframe devices, this mechanism uses the fact that batteries spark every frame - in short, it can be rotated, flipped, and is unaffected by particle order.

@motaywo you said the activated elements take 2 frames to fire. Subframe is 1 frame or less
-
Also, thanks for FP everyone!
-
@12Me21, while the pscn itself may not quite be subframe, all 'activated elements' like cray, bray, etc, take 2 frames to fire, meaning that the functional speeds of conv subframe and this are exactly the same.
-
(and of course there is the requirement that multiple events happen within a single frame)
-
not actually subframe (all subframe devices are affected by particle order)
-
FREAKIN INGENIOUS! +1

Have a look at this 'wall' that uses the subframe generators - it only exists between frames until something blocks its path. id:2049266 .
-
When I use cray, I just put another unit behind the first, offset the cycle by a frame, then use tmp2 to spawn/delete pixels in the same area.
-
@LBPHacker, because of the way the mechanism works, it takes one frame for the metal to be moved, then another for the pixels to 'update' and get sparked.

@motaywo, thanks for making this, it is seriously well built
