Integrated Dynamics Advanced Mechanics: Lists and Predicates

For advanced users, Integrated Dynamics supports functional programming concepts.

Predicates

A Predicate is an operator that takes one input and returns a Boolean (True/False). For example, an operator that checks if an Integer is "Greater than 50" is a predicate. These are used extensively in Filtering.

List Operations

You can use the Inventory Reader to get a List of all items in a chest. Using the Logic Programmer, you can:

1. Filter that list to only include "Iron Ore"
2. Count the number of items in the filtered list. 3. Use a Redstone Writer to turn on a furnace only if the count is greater than 0

The Delayer and Proxy

• Delayer: Stores a value and outputs it after a set number of ticks, allowing for time-based logic loops.
• Proxy: Acts as a remote access point for a Variable Card, allowing you to reference a variable from a different part of the network without moving the physical card.
