Sequencer Factory MK5 WIP

[Gertibrumm]

This is a Work in Progress of the latest iteration of the sequencer factory. (Please do not critic on uncompleteness)

Ill update this post until the factory is finished
the uptodate scenario file and the save file are in this first posts download section

Registers:
- Register 1 and 2 are used for Arithmetic and Branching
- Like any external data, they are read with the standard Read Write instructions
- now also with negative values (unnecessary gimmick)

Arithmetic:
- supports +,-,*,/ for now

Branching:
- If-ish branching can do ==,<,>,<=,>= for now

Instructions:
"W"x writes to register or I/O x
"R"x reads from register or I/O x, only used together with "W"
"C" together with "W" to clear registers
"D"n delays by n ticks
"B"n branching with n=1 for ==, n=2 for <, etc
"A"n arithmetic with n=1 for addition, etc
"I" only used by instruction contoller or manual operation to call instruction n
"J"n jumps to instruction n

ROM:
- in each instruction constant combinator is a negative "I" value correspondig to the instruction number
- each command should be executed seperatly except for the "move" operation ("R"+"W")
