Hi i want to make a program that when the computer gets a redstone signal (by a button) he gives to bottom 2 times a redstone signal!

my code (it doesn't work <_</>):



input = rs.getInput("front")

while true do
if input == true then
rs.setOutput("bottom, true)
sleep(0.2)
rs.setOutput("bottom, false)
sleep(0.8)
rs.setOutput("bottom, true)
sleep(0.2)
rs.setOutput("bottom, false)
end
end

Split into new topic.

You're only checking the input once.

If thats your exact code, then you are missing the last quotation mark around bottom.


rs.setOutput("bottom", true)

You also don't need to say


if input == true then

Just say


if input then --works the same.
end

-- you can also do false by

if not input then --checks if input is false
end
