Later on I upgraded all of those to 16-segment displays, having them scroll the temperature in Amsterdam by sending HTTP requests to a weather website API. :)
In theory it should be possible to make a flying machine that places all of the wireless transmitters & receivers using Deployers and having that flying machine rotate those as well, and then the user'd only have to set the channels to finish the build. There's a limit of 5000 receiver/transmitter channels, but that'd allow for 100x36 resolution with 1400 channels spare. 50x18 is the resolution of a CC Computer, so it'd allow you to have a much higher resolution display than you'd normally be able to have. But I'm thinking that it may be possible to have even higher resolution by running Bundled Cables underneath Transmitters so that 5000 channel limit wouldn't apply. It should also be possible to recreate this concept in other modpacks by just using pistons that push blocks to update the map, where ever pixel on the map could even be updated. And that'd even make it possible to have a multi-color display, by having multiple pistons per pixel stacked on top of each other.
@@sanderbos4243 Making flying machines do this sounds very difficult. I'd use ComputerCraft turtles for sure. It's a real pitty that bundled cables are not a thing in MC1.16. In the past I had planned to make a map/modpack using bundled cables and CC computers.
@@Kaikaku ComputerCraft Turtles unfortunately can't use wrenches to turn the Redpower items like Transmitters/Receivers, but I guess it would indeed probably be better to combine both ideas by having the turtle carry a wrench and a Deployer in its inventory so it can place that Deployer down to do that and then pick that Deployer back up.
@@Kaikaku Newer versions of MC have Comparators, which actually allow you to treat vanilla Redstone wire as Bunbled cables, because by chaining Comparators you can carry a desired signal strength any number of blocks. This is not the case with Repeaters, as those will always set the signal strength to 15, so with Comparators the sky's the limit!

Brilliant!
İ loved your profile image but why? because THE NEVERHOOD BRO!
Very nice idea :)
