I was just curious if it was possible for one piston to change the state of another piston.
Can one piston change the state of another piston?
Indirectly, yes…I have done this by using Piston A to execute Piston B and send the state as a variable.
Piston A
Do Stuff
Set variable state = data
Execute Piston B and send variable state
Piston B
Set variable state = bool($args.state) ? $args.state : state
Set piston state = state
I set a state variable first so that I can test the existence of the $args. $args will return null if the piston is executed by other means (without the state arguement). If $args is null, the piston will maintain the previous data.
Could you possibly show two small examples of an A and B piston. I understand how it’s supposed to work, but I’m having trouble setting it up.
Sure…over simplified example, but has all the elements…i would share some of my own that are currently in use but they are a little complicated and don’t want to muddy the waters.
Piston A
Piston B
