Comparator (Project Red)

The Comparator is a redstone circuit added by Project Red (PR). It is a logic gate with the same functions as the vanilla Redstone Comparator but with additional placement (see Usage).

If the mod MineChem is installed, the Comparator can be decomposed with the Chemical Decomposer into specific chemical compounds of MineChem.

Usage


For easier usage, NEI and WAILA can be installed which shows the input and output on the Comparator.

The Comparator from Project Red has the same functions as the Redstone Comparator. It can be toggled between two modes: Comparison mode and Subtraction mode by shift right-clicking with a Screwdriver. The mode is displayed on the cabling on the block. In Comparison mode the signal moves towards the direction of the positive end. In Subtraction mode the signal moves towards the direction of the negative end.

Unlike the vanilla version, the PR version can also be placed anywhere on walls and ceilings. Using the Screwedriver on the Comparator can reorient it in all four directions.
