A while back I saw on the issue tracker a feature in consideration, the Pay to Pulse sign and the idea intrigued me. I couldn't think of a LOT of uses for one, save for an auto-harvest cane farm or access to hidden areas. With a hopper and a comparator it is pretty easy to build something that would serve the purpose of a "pay to pulse" sign. So anyways, I put together a quick prototype to just demo the idea and wanted to get some input from the community. What uses could you find for such a thing? Bonus points for prototypes/working contraptions (but you'll have to give me res #'s so I can play with them) Front view: Back view:

awesome, thanks for the links. I know I'm not the first to think of such a thing, just curious what has been done and what can be done
90% of my casino is planned to use a system similar to this. You buy dirt and the game plays, if you win it spits out your prize
If you dig around there were some threads back before Comarators were available. You may find some interesting ideas in those also.
