9.12.2 Ylemnics
This help file talks about thaumizers from the point of view of an end-user. If you are looking for a detailed, technical reference to Ylemnics, see: https://www.aetolia.com/local/ylemnics/ If you wish to learn the Ylemnics hobby, visit Rappu at v66405 in Esterport and LEARN HOBBY OF YLEMNICS FROM RAPPU. This will cost 1000 lessons. Thaumizers ---------- Thaumizers are special containers used by Ylemnists to create contraptions. These contraptions can range from a simple adding machine to more complex series of circuits which control doors and chests remotely. They hold ylemnic blocks, ylem dust and even keys. However, most individuals only need to know how to use a finished contraption. When probing a thaumizer, you will see something such as: ... This thaumizer anticipates: pressing, entering and leaving. It holds 5000 units of ylem dust. ... The second line reports the amount of ylem dust stored within this thaumizer. This is used to power the circuit within. Anyone is able to put more ylem shards into a thaumizer should it be short on power. The first line shows the various events which can trigger a thaumizer: Pressing PRESS <thaumizer> Pushing PUSH <thaumizer> Touching TOUCH <thaumizer> Dialing DIAL <thaumizer> <number> Turning TURN <thaumizer> <number> Twisting TWIST <thaumizer> <number> Entering Someone enters the room. Leaving Someone leaves the room. Dropping Someone drops an item in the room. Picking Someone picks up an item from the room. Time Time itself triggers this thaumizer. Note that a Ylemnist can install special blocks which limits who is able to interact with a thaumizer. Lastly, a thaumizer must be on the ground to function. Numbers ------- Anywhere you may provide a number value, it must be between -2,147,483,647 and 2,147,483,647. Individual blocks can only hold those amounts, and it is possible that a thaumizer could display an erroneous value when dealing with large numbers.
