Stack Instructions and Logic Sorter
There exists a data storage paradigm in Stationeers known as the "stack". On IC10 chips it exists as an addressable memory space to store data. On the new Logic Sorter, and moving forward on other 'complex' devices, we'll be adding machine instructions that can pass advanced information and configurations to machines. Unlike the static logic types most devices use, and players are largely accustomed to, these instructions are dynamically configured and written to.
What these instructions are very similar to CPU instructions and how to write them can be found on the Stationpedia of a given device. The logic sorter for example can use combine SorterInstruction.FilterPrefabhashEquals, and a prefab hash shifted 8 bits, to write a single instruction to whitelist an item on the sorter. Instructions can pass arbitrary information to the sorter though. SorterInstruction.LimitNextExecutionByCount, can be used to modify the evaluation of a t...
