Stargate Rerouter

[RiggerMantis]

It's a good thing this wouldn't actually work in Stargate - two 'gates in proximity can't operate simultaneously - or I'm sure Ba'al would've done it at one point. O.o

@RiggerMantis Hehe, yeah that's true. At the time I didn't know much about proper Stargate mechanics and was still learning. And was and probably still is enormously fun to tinker around with this and build all kinds of contraptions. :)

@FuriousJack95 It means "head-up display".

[AlexBestGTA]

Map?

[nicodemusimnexus]

@AlexBestGTA: It's called "sp_gooniverse", a map from the spacebuild addon.

I updated the video's description with the links.

@nicodemusimnexus thanks

[Fiestazoker]

Were I become this game??

[luckyplatypus2]

I love this idea, but how about a remote deactivation of the relay gate? Also, major props on the song.

[nicodemusimnexus]

Glad to hear you like it. :)

I just deactivated the reroute gate manually for the sake of demonstration. The end product was fully automated of course and didn't need me noclipping through space every time.^^

And yeah, the song rocks, the version I'm using was a cover espescially made for the new Battlestar Galactica Series (if you didn't already know).

[luckyplatypus2]

Of course it's only now that I see the comment asking you the same thing ten months ago. I tend to suck like that.

And of course I know what version of the song it is. Do you think I'm one of these people who go out into the sunlight? C'maaaaaan

[Momo5775]

Bonne idée!

Simple, mais efficace!

Nice idea!

Simple, but effective!

[nicodemusimnexus]

Merci beaucoup! ^_^

Thank you, always nice to hear somebody still likes my idea after all this time. :)

Every Stargate has certain outputs.

I just took one of these outputs that tell you if the Stargate is being dialled and then rerouted this signal to the other gate so that it begins to dial as well.

Obviously though it's a bit more complicated to accomplish that, as you can see in the beginning of the video I used some wiring to do that.

But basically I just took the output of the dialled Stargate as a trigger.

But note that it's been a few months for me, so the Stargates might have changed.

[sithmonkeygecko]

how did you get the reroute gate to dial as soon as you dial the secret gate?

[rollebollewol]

the only way of doing this (in the series):

killing the power of the main gate,but that wouldn't work as the dialing gate supplies the power(???)

[Ph3NoMeNoN001]

can u tell me the name of the game?

[nicodemusimnexus]

It's Garry's Mod with the Stargate Addon.

And Garry's Mod itself is running on the source engine like Half Life 2. You can get it via Steam.

[nicodemusimnexus]

When you press the Q menu then there's a Stargate Tab. There you can find an icon to spawn extra Stargates.

[suckathalo25]

where do i spawn a extra stargate

[kennu7776]

lol they should have used that not the iris...you now when an unathorized incoming wormhole comes than you dont activate the iris but just put another activated stargate in front of your gate :D

[Sokar6186]

That would be impossible because there cannot be two active stargates on one planet.

[kennu7776]

damn forgot about that...than yeah , the iris or shield is the best one and simpel

[honis7]

You should put a wireless stargate controller on the rerouter gate so you dont have to do a space walk back to the start planet.=)

[nicodemusimnexus]

That was just to quickly show how it works, sort of like a proof of concept.

But what you add to them later is totally up to you. ;)
