Furthermore, attempting to fix this with a "previous pressure" metadata variable is of little use, as the output code is current run in a separate ABM - so the correct sequencing of events cannot be guaranteed.
|
||||
Therefore, the current code needs revising such that a node's output (or input) handlers are invoked from the main flow logic ABM, in order to ensure correct ordering.
|
||||
This would also allow the code to compare old and new pressure, and invoke the cleanup handler *only once* if the pressure has dropped from above to below the threshold, and not continuously.

-- Automated switching between node variants based on pressure thresholds
|
||||
When the ABM ordering is complete, an additional callback which would be useful is a "node changer" callback, to switch between variations of a pipe depending on pressure level.
|
||||
For regular pipes, this is mostly aesthetic, as the empty/loaded variants of the pipes have different texures.
|
||||
However, the flow sensor is currently a broken device under the new flow logic, as there is nothing to switch this device between the "on" and "off" state - in order to produce a mesecons output, separate nodes are required due to mesecon's API being limited to only on/off for a given node, with no facility for a callback function which could e.g. inspect pressure metadata.
|
||||
To make this work, a new registry table would be needed to check if a flowable node has this property.
|
||||
In terms of ordering, this callback should be run after outputs have been processed.
