Display Panel "Input Count" in message?

Post by NotRexButCaesar »

Am I missing something, or is there no way to get a display panel to show the signal count as the message content other than by making a separate message for each possible input count? I thought this was the main point of the display panel.

Theres not currently a nice way to do it all in one display panel

You can set up a display like this with multiple panels

This drove me nuts, why can't we just display the item count on these from the signal?
