WaveTech Piston Bolt Network

[object Object]

  • Piston Bolt
  • 1.19+
  • Advanced

Positives

  • Point-to-point (P2P): hubless, can go directly from any station to any station

  • Fixed routing: consistent addresses at all stations

  • Extra hexit for additional data and automation

  • Stacked minecart compatible

  • Full speed

  • Selector panel and manual code input UI for all stations

  • Cart integration for all stations

  • Auto cart launching for all stations

  • Prevents cart launch while changing settings to allow safe addressing

  • Underfloor wiring

  • Intersection collision prevention: when two carts enters an intersection, one will pause to let the other through

Instructions

Notes

  • Watch the video and read the user guide (https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1315522702492172300/1434952071341281382/Wave_Bolt_User_Guide.pdf) for further instructions.

Build

  • Straight bolt flying machine instructions:

    • Use the lane splitter to split a 6 wide strip of blocks into two 3 wide strips.

    • Place the rails alternating between powered and normal.

    • Build and run the rail curver.

    • Run the block pusher to form the gaps to place the repeaters and comparators. Ensure this is offset to line up with the intersections,

  • Diagonal bolt flying machine instructions:

    • Place a flat 4 wide diagonal strip of blocks two layers lower than the y-level of the rails.

    • Build and run the rail curver.

    • Fill in the blocks for the dust to be placed on on either side.

  • Panel encoding: Add items to the shulker boxes to get different signal strengths corresponding to the hex code of the station (keep in mind the output will be subtracted from 15).

Usage

  1. Flip the lever to determine whether to transmit the code from the lectern or selector panel.

  2. Select the code for the station in the input that you selected.

  3. The data transmission hexit can be used for integration for modifications to the bolt. This hexit is optional.

  4. To send chest minecarts onto the bolt, hit the leftmost note block at the cart integration UI to dispense a new minecart, and hit the adjacent note block to send the chest minecarts to the bolt.

  5. Ride the minecart to be transported to your destination. If there are no minecarts, refill the chest and click the button to place a new minecart.

  6. After arriving at the station, the chest minecarts will arrive on the right side of the cart integration UI.
