Autarchic Gate

Autarchic Gates are devices which attach basic electrical logic onto BuildCraft Pipes and Waterproof Pipes. Unlike normal Gates, which can only provide the Redstone Signal and Pipe Wire Signal reactions, Autarchic Gates also have the Energy Pulser and Single Energy Pulse reactions. These allow the Autarchic Gate to act as a weak engine, moving items or pumping fluids through the attached pipe. Autarchic Gates come in several versions, including Autarchic Gate, Autarchic Iron AND Gate, Autarchic Iron OR Gate, Autarchic Gold AND Gate, Autarchic Gold OR Gate, Autarchic Diamond AND Gate, and Autarchic Diamond OR Gate.

Basic Gates can specify one condition and reaction, Iron Gates can specify up to two conditions and reactions, Gold Gates up to four, and Diamond Gates up to eight. Iron, Gold, and Diamond Gates can interact with Red Pipe Wire. Only Gold and Diamond Gates can interact with Yellow Pipe Wire, and only Diamond Gates can interact with Green and Blue Pipe Wire.

Recipe
Autarchic Gates are produced at the Assembly Table using at least one Laser, from Pulsating Chipsets, Redstone Chipsets, at one of the corresponding simple Gates.

Like simple gates, Autarchic AND Gates of any grade can be shapelessly crafted into Autarchic OR Gates, by combining them with a single Redstone Chipset. Likewise, Autarchic OR Gates can be turned into Autarchic AND Gates of the same grade by combining them with a Redstone Chipset.

Usage
Held Autarchic Gates can be attached to a Transport and Waterproof Pipe segment by holding them, and right-clicking the pipe segment. They can be removed instantly from a pipe by shift-right-clicking the pipe with empty hands. Autarchic Gates are dropped if a player breaks attached pipe.

Once placed, right-clicking the Autarchic Gate will bring up a Gate interface. On the left side of this interface is a group of boxes for conditions, and on the right side, a group of boxes for reactions. See BuildCraft Gate Logic for further details on Gate Conditions, Reactions, and examples of OR and AND Gate Logic.

Active Gates will glow red. Autarchic Gates in Pulser or Single Energy Pulse mode can act as engines to extract or pump liquids. They provide slightly less energy than even a Redstone Engine, however, although they can respond more quickly to redstone signals.
