The RUST Memory Cell is a deployable electrical storage gateway (trigger) device that allows for electrical current passthrough to two different sources depending on its toggled state.
While using a Wire Tool to check available ports, players will find the standard Power In and Output, as well as Inverted Output, Set, Reset, and Toggle. An easy way of understanding the difference between Output and Inverted Output is as viewing each as a logic gate.
While the memory cell is in a configuration of 1 green and 1 red light, the power provided will pass through to the Inverted Output port. If the memory cell is switched to 2 green lights, the power will then passthrough to the regular Output port. As default, power will passthrough to Inverted Output until a switch is connected to SET and flipped.
Once the memory cell is switched from green/red to green/green, it can only be reset via the RESET port, with it receiving a power signal from a Switch. If you want to cut down on redundant switches, both can be changed via the TOGGLE feature.
Memory cells are a vital part of many electrical trap bases. The device itself can be placed on most surfaces.
Memory cells are found in an assortment of low-to-mid-tier crates, as well as dropped from many scientist types. RUST Players may learn them directly or through a Scrap investment into the Tier 2 Workbench tech tree.
