THE COMMAND BLOCK FACTORY

The Command Block Factory

You can move to the Command Block Factory screen by clicking "Create command block" at the top of the Panel screen, or by clicking one of the pink triangles on the Panel screen.

Names of Parts:

The names of the parts are shown below. The numbers correspond to the numbered explanations.

Help Screen Command List OK Cancel

		Help	Interrupt Button	High-Speed Button	Number Keys	Block
1.	OK:	Sends the created command block to the Panel screen.
2.	Cancel:	Returns you to the Panel screen without creating a command block.
3.	Command List:	List of the commands that can be specified.
4.	Block:	Displays the command selected from the command list.
5.	Number keys:	Used to input the parameter for the selected command. The parameter
		units - "steps", "sec" and so on - vary depending on the command,
		and they are displayed in the key area.

Note: The number of steps must be between 1 and 50, the number of cries must be between 1 and 50, the Option action must last between 1 and 50 seconds, and the number of panel-switches and tones must be between 1 and 8.

6.High-speed button: Used to select the speed of the action associated with the command. When this button is selected, the action is performed at high speed, and when this button is only displayed when you have selected a command for which speed settings are applicable.

7.Interrupt button: Use to select the whether or not the currently selected command

		can be interrupted. This button is only displayed when you have
		selected a command which can be interrupted.
8.	Help:	Displays a help animation indicating the function of the sensor
		currently selected. To stop the animation, click the button again
		(the text on the button will change to "STOP").
9.	Help screen:	Screen area where the help animation is displayed.

How to Create a Command Block

On the Command Block Factory screen, select and click the desired command from the command list in the middle of the screen. Next, input the required parameter by

Option	When an ON / OFF switch is fitted to the WonderBorg’s Option
	Connector, this sensor will react by entering state 1 when the
39	switch is ON, and state 0 when the switch is OFF.

clicking the number keys. When you have finished inputting, click the "Decide" button at the top right of the screen. The command block will now be created on the Panel screen.
