coastal cottage

[dharvinia]

While I was rebuilding the settlement at coastal cottage I decided to build a big theatre.

Then I noticed that I had blocked the entrance to another building.

So I build a small corridor on the side of the theatre. Since I did not want lights on full time,

I decided to have a lighting system that only lights up where the person is in the corridor.

this is what I came up with.

These are the lights that turn on in sequence

these are the series of laser tripwires that turn the lights on and off.

this is the next light in the series to turn on as I pass it.

These are logic gates that I use so the lights will turn on and off at the right time.

If any one wants I can do a small video of how it works in real time. 

I decided to redo this section and changed the gates to an XOR gate

This setup is more efficient and allows for two people to walk through from different directions.  It also uses less wiring and generally works better.
