marble machinations

(working title)

logic mostly like https://git.crispypin.cc/CrispyPin/marble

todo

(more levels) story/lore copy/cut/paste selections timestamps in solutions and blueprints multiple input/output sets undo/redo tooltips show level info in editor lock tile types for early levels to make it less overwhelming display tool variant more clearly (it's not obvious there are more states) make marble movement more consistent (>o o< depends on internal marble order) decide on marble data size (u32 or byte?) blueprint rotation?

intro, basic mechanics

output a zero (marble, io)
output multiple numbers in sequence (digits)
output zeroes forever (looping, trigger, bag output)
copy the input (input)
copy only odd input numbers (comparator, math, flipper)

0-terminated list processing

copy the second list
calculate list length (math, bag input)
count instances of 5 in a list
reverse a list (bouncing)

user-friendly numbers

convert a number to decimal ascii
parse an ascii number
convert text to lowercase

advanced list processing

index a list
search a list
add two lists element-wise
sort list
