CCSF '23 Release: Universal Wires


Grab the download here!

This is one of those things that I made as proof-of-concept ages ago, but couldn't really find a practical use for it, so it got shelved. But I've been working a bit with gadgets this year and...well, I'm still not certain of a practical use for it, other than to more easily spam the SERU drop point. But... it is very fun to play with. I feel like it might also be useful for testing agents at some point too. Let me know if you do anything useful or fun (or horrifying) with it! 

Some technical info-- by default, if you don't select a script with the SHIFT key, connecting a wire to any agent that isn't already connectable will result in activate 1 on that agent being run when it receives any non-zero signal, unless script 8880 exists on that agent. I've included a handful of 8880 scripts with this for various C3/DS agents that throw errors if you try to directly run activate 1 on them, so if it finds it, it will run that instead. There's also a few "888X" scripts included to perform other actions for which I found the agent's native scripts to be disappointing or difficult to use, so if you see those while on the script selection screen, know that they are generally wire-safe.

Otherwise, know that when sticking wires into things you will almost certainly run into errors and/or unexpected behavior if you select a script on an agent that was never meant to be run independently. But isn't that half the excitement?

Have fun sticking wires in things!
