Servus,
ich hoffe in Deutsch geht es auch, da mein English doch nicht so perfekt ist^^

Idee: Es wäre echt klasse, wenn es noch mehr Netzwerkkabel geben würde z.b. in Gelb, Blau, Violett uvm.
Nutzen: Komplexere Schaltungen und eine bessere Übersicht.

Gruß
Florian

Translate with Google:

Servus,
I hope in German it is synonymous, since my English is not so perfect ^ ^

Idea: It would be really great, if there would be even more network cable z.b. In yellow, blue, violet and many more.
Benefits: More complex circuits and a better overview.

greeting
Florian

I too wanted more colored cable when I started playing with the circuit network. However, after learning various concepts of computer science I became aware that you can actually send an enormous amount of data down a single cable (there's over 200 odd signal types).

I try to make standards to follow when making my contraptions such as using red to send and green to receive. I've made some pretty large scale designs and have never struggled with needing more colors, I think adding more might end up confusing newer players even more.
