Port

Only used in programming. Allows a Microcontroller to interface with PilotObjects. To do so, the Port must be between the Microcontroller and the PilotObject or Microcontroller and the EthernetCable (to interface with objects further away from the Microcontroller).

It is a craftable and spawnable non-flammable solid.

Here is a list of possible sizes that reach the maximum malleability (27) that have integer components: 1x27x1, 1x9x3, 3x3x3

At its default size (1x1x1) it has a durability of 1, at its maximum size it has a durability of 4.

By default, its colour is #635f62.

It requires 2 Copper and 2 Silicon to be crafted.

Configurables

PortID

The ID of this port used to utilize this port by connected Microcontrollers. It is a number. It ranges between 0 and 10000000000. It increments by 1.

Events

Triggered(otherPart)

Fires when the object is triggered and provides a reference to the part that triggered it.

If a Microcontroller indirectly initiated the triggering of an object, it will return the object rather than the Microcontroller, whereas in the case of directly triggering the object (i.e., calling :Trigger, but not TriggerPort), it will return the microcontroller.

The trigger source remains unchanged if the trigger is sent through something such as an Antenna, but will be set to a RemoteControl if one is present along the trigger line.

The otherPart parameter is the source of the trigger signal. It is a PilotObject.
